Say it with me again!

Men do not need to put on a dress and go into a public restroom to abuse women and children.

They usually just go home. Or don a clerical collar. Or wear a badge.

Or they just do it in public, wearing pants

Racism is why we’re never going to have universal healthcare in this country. Because some white folks will die themselves rather than see a Black person get a goddamn thing.

The thing about all these fucking statements now from world leaders calling for the food to be let in to Gaza: you have the ability to impose sanctions on Israel and every second you spend talking instead of imposing them is a collaborationist lie.

AI tools are all privileged tools. To use AI you need a smartphone/computer, an internet access, subscriptions etc. All these are neither cheap nor free, and not everyone can access them. Ho much money do you need to spend to read, think or draw, compared to those expenses?

Bluesky just suspended Alaa AGAIN, accusing her of being a "fake account."

SHE IS NOT FAKE.

Hey @support.bsky.team @bsky.app maybe you can explain to me why Jesse Singal is welcome on this platform but a mom in Gaza isn't.

One of my favorite annual @democracynow.org traditions is that we always play this video of James Earl Jones reading Frederick Douglass's speech "What to the Slave is the 4th of July?"

If you've never read or heard the speech, it's well worth your time.
