Do Not Obey In Advance

DO use Alt Text!

Video-only is click-bait.

I am ABSOLUTELY antifa. I want little to do with anyone who is "profa".

No BS - crypto, 'influencers', sales, accounts w/stock pics of middle-aged dudes but zero posts = block.
I said there was no reason AT ALL to use X/twitter any more.

Joyce Carol Oates elegantly proved me wrong.

'often they are picked for you'

The less privileged you are, the more frequently your battles picked for you.

Good thing you're all badasses.
It is said that you must pick your battles, but often they are picked for you. You should not give in just because you did not choose the fight. No, you must respond with all your determination and ferocity, and show your enemy they picked the wrong battle, with the wrong warrior.

When someone has spent their late CHILDHOOD until menopause under the burden of possible unplanned pregnancy, they tend to stay in a marriage.

Then their reproductive situation changes and they are SO DONE with that relationship.

A symptom of menopause is freedom from mediocrity or abuse.

Japan has multi-generational mortgages. Apparently the pressure to have kids and grandkids *to pay for the house* is otherworldly horror.

It's even worse for the kids who inherit the debt.

"assassinated" is the word
This incendiary language from Trump will incite violence against Democrats.

People will get killed.

It’s already happened.

Here! Have a version that DOESN'T link back to a paywall piece of rubbish like the propagandist neckbeards at @nytimes.com - as a lil' treat!

Seriously. People know better by now, stop giving those gormless cucks the clicks.

The world is bigger than the USA and a lot of people need to learn that before being allowed online.

This.

GOP ("Nazis" in common parlance) don't get a cookie for *adhering to law*.
Phang: These firings were illegal in the first fucking place.

It’s like the Republicans are supposed to think that they’ve now done something right by not doing what is illegal in the first place.

It really makes me angry when I keep asking someone (with a real platform) for alt text and they ... don't.

Especially when they're calling out powerful public figures and groups for failing disabled people.
Get in the habit of bringing up accessibility at meetings, in stand-ups, and in demos. Bring up things you've done to address accessibility. Likewise, don't be afraid to ask, "Have we tested this on a keyboard?" or "What's the experience like on a screen reader?"

YES!
BREAKING: We won!

Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

Alberta gov't hardly workin'

Removed 70% of radar photo technology.

City of Edmonton - #YEG - chose to comply in advance. Shame on them.

#UCP does not have your best interests at heart.

Excellent Alt Text!
Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

Good!

But DAAAAAMN this is such a low bar, they cannot be trusted, and my brain added "for now" to the headline

What they say: "Our news is FREE, we have no paywall, just SUBSCRIBE"

What Nazis hear: "We've collected a real nice list of resistors email and IP addresses which we can be forced to turn over to The Regime"

Nazi propaganda is free and doesn't need identifiers.

Accurate news has to be the same.

1. Tucker Carlson is mainstreaming white supremacy, hosting Nick Fuentes — a white nationalist who praises Hitler — for a fawning 2-hour interview

Liar.
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

People want their members of Congress to fight for them with everything we've got.

Senate Democrats should listen and reject this funding deal that does nothing to stop healthcare costs from skyrocketing.
November 10, 2025 at 2:41 AM
They all need to make that commitment.
I am relieved that both Arizona Senators, @gallego.senate.gov and @captmarkkelly.bsky.social, have both announced that they will vote NO on the CR, which “promises” a vote on ACA subsidies “at some time in the future”.

Looks a lot like caving from here.
November 10, 2025 at 1:00 AM
Don't worry, they totally will.

I hope I'm wrong.
@gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social please do not cave on the shutdown over a promise from people who have done nothing but lie to the American people.

Sometimes people comment that they’ve never called a member of Congress and they are nervous about it.

I completely understand. My suggestion is to write down your thoughts first.

Then call and give them your name and zipcode, and immediately begin reading your statement all the way through.
