Republican. Democrat.
Liberal. Conservative.
These terms feel useless in describing the current state of affairs.
The GOP has opposed gun control for decades. But Dems just ran for president on “the most lethal military in the world.”
Violence isn’t anomalous to our culture. It is the culture.

This Mother’s Day weekend, focus some of your attention on the mothers that so often get erased and forgotten by the system. Fiona Apple hit me hard with this one.

Trump is not the only threat to our lives. The duopoly that runs this country must be stopped. The democratic wing of that infamous group must also be stopped and exposed as the enemies of the people that they are.

If you see value in making your events accessible—for disability justice, to resist fascist agendas, etc—but need masks, info, guidance, etc, look up your local mask bloc.

Since RFK Jr wants to ban “petroleum-based” food dyes,
does that mean he’s going to ban methylene blue, his favorite unregulated supplement?
Because that’s…also derived from petroleum.

No, you're not eating gasoline. The "petroleum food dye" narrative is disinformation.
RFK Jr. and the wellness industry ignore basic chemistry to sell fear about food dyes and your health.

Indeed I’m fearful. We aren’t testing much any more. We’re firing everyone in govt who can help and stripping funding from academic & industry scientists who can fill the gaps. H5N1 is a real threat & US policy puts us all at risk. Me & colleagues Kay Russo, Kamran Khan, & Keith Poulsen discuss👇🏻
As the H5N1 bird flu virus mutates and rapidly spreads through American cattle herds — a first for the U.S. — doctors and veterinarians are fearful that if the virus is left unchecked, it could spiral into a possible pandemic. https://cbsn.ws/4ionCJG
As bird flu hits cattle herds in U.S., scientists say these H5N1 factors worry them most
Bird flu infections have been rare among people, but the pathogen is evolving, which has scientists worried about a possible pandemic.

This man is a eugenicist. His unhinged attacks and cockamamie theories on autistic people are incredibly dangerous.
Researchers and advocates have pushed back at what they consider inaccurate and stigmatizing comments made by the health secretary, and note the causes of autism are complex.

Y'all, there are more options than brittle "just in time" capitalism built on massive exploitation and hyper-fascist closed border serf capitalism built on rabid nationalism. They're both really evil even if one's a lot louder about it.
It's important to remember that, especially right now.

Mutual aid preparation folks emphasizing that, in times of upheaval and climate catastrophe, it's a really good idea for communities to think about their supply lines/produce more locally are the absolute opposite of closed border fash and it's worth knowing the difference.
