The basic function of a job is to pay your bills.

That’s why people should support living wages.

Work full time? You can pay your bills with your paycheck.

It is really crazy that it is ONLY white men who are claiming in my mentions that Mamdani's campaign messaging will only work in NYC.

I truly think folks are underestimating what a platform of affordable housing, affordable food, free public transit, and fighting back against ICE would do ANYWHERE.

I'm not just mad about this shit because I'm tired of seeing it (tho I am)

It is scary to me that people legitimately don't seem to understand enough to know that 20% of the population of Texas voted for Trump. That is it. Out of every 5 people in Texas, 4 did not vote for this.

ICYMI: 9,000 Philadelphia city workers are on strike for the first time in 40 years as they fight for better pay, benefits, and more.

These workers provide essential services for their communities day in and day out. Philadelphia doesn’t run without them.

Solidarity!

the dem establishment attempting to purge every pro palestine politician from the party while the actual voter base is now majority pro-palestine is going to wreck party unity and cohesion if we let them keep doing this.

I'm particularly seeing a lot of romantasy books wherein women can ally themselves with men in powerful positions in oppressive regimes, and because of Love, they'll then be protected from oppression but will not have to sacrifice their own autonomy in any meaningful way.
as always, i'm going to read everything through the lens of what's happening in romance, and the truth is, a lot of romance written by white women right now, A LOT OF IT, traffics in these same messages.

I've made a very firm rule on our discord now that nothing is a distraction. Everything is happening! If you are getting distracted by something that is a YOU problem and firmly within your power to fix!

The rest of us can multi-task.
"this is a distraction from other issues!" bitch you weren't going to do anything about those other issues, either!

Now that we’ve seen the full Senate text, we can say for certain: either the House or the Senate version would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history.

Each have the largest Medicaid and largest SNAP cuts ever. And each give huge tax cuts to the rich.

I'm sorry, but understanding that your country is carrying out a genocide should change you. Seeing the people being crushed should change you.

That's your soul pushing you to do everything you can to stop the horrors. You can listen, or you can try and ignore it. But you change all the same.

“Just calm down and let people enjoy chatgpt.” Sorry, no. I find it creepy that folks are treating a machine that mimics human speech as their friend / therapist. It is feeding you lies. It is destroying your thinking abilities. Shut it off. Talk to other humans. Go outside.

Vengeful liberals going “I will never forgive people who didn’t vote for Harris” only ever seem to mean Muslims or Hispanic people. Not the people in their own families that they couldn’t convince. You shrugged at Grandma and walked away but people who aren’t you and yours *had* to vote blue?

NEW: Judge Boasberg grants TRO preventing deportation of all in US custody subject to new Trump EO! Concludes that terms like "nation" and "government" likely don't apply to Tren de Aragua, immigration doesn't seem to be "invasion," so Alien Enemies Act wouldn't provide basis for removal.

the tesla protest might objectively be among the most successful in history already just in terms of immediate response, if you consider they forced the world’s most powerful person & its most wealthy to fully degrade themselves like used car salesmen on live TV while the whole world watched agog.

I mean, if they've mortgaged themselves by borrowing against their paper wealth, and that paper wealth drops precipitously via boycotts such that they are underwater on their loans, then you can definitely hurt them. There's a reason why a certain fashy billionaire is panicking right about now.
Another thought about boycott is that a billionaire makes so much money off of the money they already have, that it's very hard to impact that. Sure, a boycott can cost them money, which they make back doing absolutely nothing.

Under the Constitution, Congress has the right to set tariffs, not the President--Trump only has the ability to start this devastating trade war with our closest neighbors and allies because of Congressional delegation.

DOGE: we're gonna save so much grant money just by changing the indirect rate

The grant writer I talked to last night: So he fired everyone who knew the difference between direct and indirect costs and also every auditor. Good luck with that.
