Oh, my god. This is such a loss. Alice was a wonderful person who did so much to advance the cause of disability justice. The world is a much better place because she was here.
I don’t want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed.

Shit. I'm going to have to do a thread about what the BOP baseline is (yes, they ration tp and period products, which becomes a fulcrum for sexual abuse) and what makes sense (separate food streams when a lot ppl might want to poison you is not abnormal) and what's batshit, aren't I?
Apparently, Ghislaine Maxwell is living it up in prison with unlimited toilet paper. Here’s what we know about her alleged special privileges at her new federal prison camp in Texas.

Zohran Mamdani says that New York City stands with Starbucks employees!
He points out their CEO made 96 billion last year.
That’s 6,666 times the median Starbucks worker salary.
Boycott Starbucks. Support the workers. Demand they receive a living wage.

In solidarity! Also their coffee sucks!
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Holy cow! What a brilliant and revolutionary thought! Maybe we don't need a bunch of white dudes with substacks to tell us what to do - just be a good candidate (and person) for the race you're in.
What if the model is: “be a good candidate for the race you’re running in the place you’re running.” I understand this attempt to assert one model over another, but it seems to fly in the face of the entire history of politics.

It’s all three but they don’t realize that one doesn’t work.
Theory 1: Administration botching it badly, but the intent is to cause pain and suffering so people will blame Dems.
Theory 2: Causing pain and suffering to cater to strongest supporters, who like pain and suffering.
Theory 3: Administration just likes pain and suffering.
All plausible!

Astonishing how hard this administration is working to keep people hungry.
It's clear they are trying maximize public suffering, in hopes of getting people to blame Dems for that suffering. But it's transparently the White House working overtime to keep the suffering going!
