Kudos to Tony & Albas in San Jose! I saw their post on Nextdoor, & it has been refreshing to see how many people wanted to support them. Consider offering your business to these restaurants, so they can continue to best serve their community.

In just two months, $1 trillion was added to the national debt — an unprecedented surge — and everyday Americans will bear the brunt.

Food shortages in poor communities leads to ppl engaging in survival tactics. The State frames this as senseless crime. They criminalize poor, hungry folks for trying to live. They send in troops and put folks in prisons, lining the pockets of private prison owners.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

I have also heard from folks in community care circles say they've heard similar things. Please share, and keep a lookout for yourselves and your fellow community members.

California will start producing and selling its own supply of low-cost insulin in January.

The suggested price for consumers will be no more than $55 for a pack of five pens.

Currently even generic insulin typically costs about $260 for a pack of five.

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.

Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

You know how everything looks the same? You know, this living of the definition of insanity, doing the same thing, & expecting different results? This mini video essay encourages us to embrace the weird, make different choices, & maybe keep a bit of our spirit in tact.💜

I've said it for some time now: I'm SO serious, whether you can get pregnant or know someone who can, consider picking up Plan B or the generic, available at all drugstores & very cost effective at Costco. If you can spare it, consider going on www.plancpills.org & getting some "just in case" meds.

Interestingly, @rbreich.bsky.social just did a video on this, where he predicted that these travel impairments could be what gets the government shut down to come to a halt. Private jets need air traffic controllers, too.
Whoa! The shutdown’s ripple effect starting to hit.

Burbank Airport in LA County has no air traffic controllers on duty due to sick calls, last-minute day-off requests, and staffing shortages.

If you’re flying anywhere in the country, check for delays.

It’s so disappointing how their long game—of distracting & getting everyone to fight w/ one another, instead of the 1% & people in power—blinded folks from understanding that Project 2025 was a REAL issue. And to discern that Cheeto was lying about having no involvement.

Trump is now gloating about meeting with Russ Vought of "PROJECT 2025 Fame" to apparently determine which "Democrat Agencies" he wants to cut during a shutdown.

Remember when Trump denied knowing about the authoritarian playbook and many pundits and politicians gave him a pass?

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”

Close to 65k watching the livefeed from the Global Sumud Flotilla off the coast of Gaza.

Israel seems to be intercepting right now.

It may be a tough pill to swallow, but it’s also been known & understood for a while, & some are JUST catching up. This highlights several points regarding recent violence, but the main points extends further to other stuff, almost circling back to weaponized incompetence.
