Same people who whinge endlessly about how the removal of confederate monuments “erases history” have no problem erasing actual history

The beating heart of a fighting labor movement is in Minnesota. One of the key battles for the future of working people will be determined there. Trump’s goons are treating their assault on the state as a workshop for what to do next. Solidarity is the answer.

This is actually a pro-ICE message that if taken seriously will lead to the agency being expanded even more than Obama, Biden, and Trump have already expanded it. Pseudo-opposition at best.
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social: "We have an ICE agent who should have been trained not to be in front of a vehicle and never to shoot into a moving vehicle, and yet this happened on [Kristi Noem's] watch. The whole POINT of Homeland Security is to make this country more stable and safe."

kind of darkly funny that "gender studies" is the stereotypical "useless degree" because gender studies will help you understand a large and important chunk of the current psychosis in american life

The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work: engage with each other, across ideology, through spirited discourse. In a democracy, ideas are tested through words and good-faith debate — never through violence.

RIP Charlie Kirk, you would have loved politicizing the shooting of Charlie Kirk.
on a serious note it's incredible how little they cared about the guy. he wasn't even confirmed as dead, never mind his body cold, before they started pushing "lefist" and "trans" "terrorism" narratives. they saw the blood gush out of his neck and thought "this is an excellent opportunity."
just so you know, twitter losers are trawling through bluesky and doing their usual thing of complaining about people who are telling jokes. comedy is legal now, losers. deal with it.

For over a year now I’ve worked so hard and tried everything I could to avoid this. But I couldn’t save enough, so here we are.

I made a Gofundme. Depending on the outcome I will either hire an expensive immigration lawyer and give it one more try, or pack up and use the money to start over.

Israel destroyed a Palestinian seed bank today. This is such a specific kind of evil, targeting literal hope for the future. Attempting to further alienate Palestinians from their home and land. So much destroyed just for the sake of destroying. It's awful.

So yesterday I learned about Ava Cordero, a transgender woman who, in 2007, sued Jeffrey Epstein alleging he sexually abused her when she was 16. Her lawsuit was filed in 2007 while Epstein was negotiating a plea deal in Florida for abusing other girls, but her claims were mocked and dismissed
