Is antifa in the room with us now, Mr. President? This kind of headline would be laughable if it weren't so distressing. www.reuters.com/world/europe...

Ugh, the 2025 Global Carbon Budget Report just dropped and it makes me literally sick to my stomach to think that fossil fuels are projected to hit a record 38.1 billion metric tons this year. At this pace, the world is roughly four years from breaching the 1.5°C warming threshold.

The gov shutdown officially ended on Wed., Nov. 12. While we can find relief knowing millions of Americans will once again start receiving paychecks & food benefits, the agreement fails to address the central issue of 22mil. people losing COVID-Era enhanced subsidies for health coverage.

It’s hard for me to understand how folks can convince themselves that money is real or capitalism is a tenable concept given the fact that roughly 1.4 million federal workers have been furloughed or are working without pay. Why do we continue to consent to this social experiment of suffering?

not surprising: the democrats are going to cave on the government shutdown and your healthcare costs are going to skyrocket. make no mistake, this is a conscious decision by the party to punish you for mamdani and to remind you of your place

While solid public health data's been difficult to come by the last few weeks, it's now clear that covid risks in the Asheville area have declined to SUBSTANTIAL, down from High.
We may be out of this wave entirely in a week or two, but we're not there yet. Risks remain very real. #avlnews

The only thing the ADL’s ‘Mamdani Monitor’ documents is their own racism, Islamophobia, and defense of the genocidal Israeli government. 🧵

1/ For no particular reason whatsoever here in NC, we'd like to highlight a couple members of A Killing Tradition, based in central Florida. Self-described as a "Shock Rock Supergroup," their shows draw crowds teeming with national socialists, racist boneheads, and other white power gang members.

Everytime someone buys from a company on the BDS list with an excuse like “starbucks is closer,” “it’s cheaper,” or “I needed something quick,” I imagine the dissociation they must force on themselves in order to ignore their moral injury. I imagine their spirit weeping, suffocated by convenience.

Ruminating this morning with a friend on the culture of social hierarchy and supremacy as it is replicated in movement spaces, and really feeling hopeful that the collective can shift away from disposability and transactional relationships while we weave this new reality of abundance together.

I don’t want to be confrontational, but I simply can’t be silent and someone has to say the hard things to get folks that are comfortable and well-resourced to rethink their positions.

Feeling tired & sad today as wildfires cruise thru WNC, fueled by flood debris. Wore my MADR shirt to grocery shop & a neighbor stopped to ask me about it, “what does that mean by solidarity not charity?” Our convo was just the pick-me-up I needed. One day at a time, one foot in front of the other.

I will go so far out of my way to avoid Russ Avenue that I practically know every road in Waynesville at this point. These industrialists aren’t gonna keep me trapped in that single-file line of metal and misery. 😭

Most outside this city (and even far too many here) don't understand the massive destruction wrought by redlining and "urban renewal" here. It left Asheville hyper-segregated, something city hall has enforced with countless actions since: ashevilleblade.com?p=241 #avlgov #avlnews

The Trump administration has announced that it is seizing full control over which journalists have access to the press pool covering the president, taking the power from the organization that has represented journalists who cover the White House for over 100 years.
Trump Administration Seizes Control Over White House Press Pool in Chilling Move
“In a free country, leaders must not be able to choose their own press corps,” the White House press group said.
