If I ever live to be 90 or 100, please, DON'T say I'm "90 years young", nothing makes a person seem more decrepit than saying they are such and such years "young". It's okay, you can say the O word. As a 147 year old once said, "What's so damn troublesome about not having died?!".

This has to be one of the most horrific things I've ever seen
They want us to "replace" loved ones we've lost through poison, war and disease they inflict on us, with robots

The superstructure that colludes to enable child trafficking is the superstructure that colludes to cheer on illegal wars of conquest and genocide and the same superstructure that colludes to enable massive wealth transfer to a handful of billionaire perverts and it's all held up by guns and prisons

A very low quality, high contrast image of the purported "Lubbock Lights", a purported UFO sighting in Lubbock, Texas, in 1951. The image is a series of white blobs in a chevron formation against an almost totally black background. No other details of the background are discernable.

I misread this as "the Lubbock Lights".

first it's pensions, then it's healthcare, then vacation, finally it's the wages, pretty soon you're just going to one box to work all day for no money and going to another to get the rest of snap to eat, which sounds a lot like how they described the soviet union to me in the 80s but what do i know

As a bookstore that sells pamphlets and magazines, the criminalization of such materials feels pretty close to home. So let's take a closer look at the materials the federal government is claiming tie readers to "antifa terrorism." We can pick out six titles in these grainy photos. 1/

with all the hysteria about Zohran Mamdani being set to destroy the NYC economy, I’m just going to remind everyone that David Dinkins - the mayor from 1990 to 1993 - was literally a DSA member.

I can answer this. I interviewed Peterson's tailor a few years ago, although the interview was never published because I fell behind on work. Here is the story of this suit. 🧡

I'm so old I remember when people fumed when we compared the GOP to Nazis. That was like three years ago.

Through various accounts, we've been warning that the failure to hold these criminals accountable since Bush decided to torture people was a slide into fascism. Here we are, all while they aim the military at their own people. Wake up!

If you doubt that people were scared to wear a hijab after 9/11, particularly in the NYC area, given the rhetoric from the Bush administration and no shortage of cowards who are now devout Trumpers, you weren't there or you weren't paying attention.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.
