Several years ago, I was displaced from Somerville when my rent was raised hundreds of dollars. Today, I'm announcing my run for Mayor of Somerville in order to ensure that we can have a city that is more affordable, more accountable, and more accessible for all.

The US media is always quick to report on protests in #Cuba, but here's something you'll rarely see reported on: hundreds of thousands of Cubans in the streets demanding an end to the US blockade. Images from a huge match in Havana on Dec. 20.

I’m more and more convinced that there’s something to the drone thing since 1) my dad personally was able to scope one with a telescope and 2) the wave of dunking on people for misreporting sightings of planes, stars, etc is doing wonders to muddy the waters.

“The system is designed to make people feel small.

“And I think that the basic thing of the Left is to empower people, to make them feel part of something - a bigger collectivity, a class, a movement they can be proud of.”

My piece on the Belgian Workers Party tribunemag.co.uk/2024/12/goin...

Alien Romulus was the first movie I’ve watched in a while and it completely confirms my theory about AI. The real danger of AI is not that it will replace human creativity, but that humans will come to write like AI: recycled, derivative, good enough facsimiles of what’s come before

Did not have @demsocialists.bsky.social debates Kind Bar CEO in @newsweek.com on my bingo card
KIND Bar CEO & billionaire Daniel Lubetzky writes that DSA is the Democrats’ version of Project 2025 — but the working class won’t win by capitulating to lies & the wishes of the 1%. DSA Co-Chair @ahsheek.bsky.social responds in @newsweek.com Socialism BEATS Fascism:

We Democratic Socialists of America Won't Apologize
Migrants crossing the border are scapegoats for the real threat to the working class: billionaires who profit from a divided labor force.
