Californians are NOT going to vote for Gavin Newsom. They're telling you now, with YEARS to go before the election. Fair warning. Please support better candidates, there will be many to choose from.

I wish there was more public recognition of how batshit insane it is to call the president a dangerous authoritarian and then give him a $1 trillion military budget

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

A lot of what people imagine politically for this country can't actually happen under the current Democratic party. That's something that I don't see lots of people actually reckoning with. There is no way to do most of the things that some people want to do through the Democratic party.

Legend. So many incredible songs about the human condition and struggle. A true champion for civil rights and dignity, who stood bravely against global colonialism and racism. He was also in Club Paradise with Robin Williams the year I was born, which is pretty hilarious and under-appreciated!😂

The AI bubble may be about to bust.
Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.
We all need to say this very clearly:
NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!
Expropriate their asses instead.
They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.
They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

Excellent clip on the history of hostile architecture in NYC-it’s current form seen in the leaning benches in subways &lack of any seating (except Amtrak Lounge) in Moynihan station impacting ppl who are unhoused, older, and/or disabled. Of course, Robert Moses & his legacy are responsible for this.

the massive scale of the No Kings protests, from the organizers’ perspectives, was ALWAYS about making it easy for people to people to go and meet organizers and organizations and mutual aid:
“Let this be a springboard, not the end of your journey.”
if you went, how are you doing so?
