One thing I don't see ppl talk about:

Food pantries are often inaccessible to Autistic ppl & other Disabled ppl

Bus lines sometimes aren't near them

Disability can dictate what food you can eat

Often in food pantries you don't have much choice, unlike SNAP

A friendly reminder to Establishment Democrats:

Republicans are going to call you crazy Communists and Mamdani lovers regardless if you are or not.

Are you really going to keep letting Conservatives bully you on their terms?

Quit sacrificing your base for mythical moderates, or YOU WILL LOSE.

Proposal 2: Repeal Citizen United and create Fairer Elections.

I believe the best policy for fairer elections is taking up the Democracy for All Amendment and the Fair Elections Now Act, acknowledging the act should apply to House elections as well as the current Senate framework.

I put together a first draft for policy.

This policy is for ending speculative Trading in the Federal Government and tries to achieve the goal of de-incentivizing politicians from creating policy that benefits the stock market over the actual economy.

Not a lawyer and would love feedback.

The Israeli military has killed more than 200 journalists and media workers. The latest strike killed 5 journalists, including a prominent Al Jazeera journalist. The US must stop providing weapons for this genocide. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/8/...

The top 1% now owns more than $54 trillion in wealth.

That’s 468 times more than the bottom 50%.

One man — Elon Musk — owns more than the bottom half COMBINED.

This is what I mean when I talk about oligarchy.

Thanks to the thousands of Jewish New Yorkers who gathered last night to shout No More!

No more to mass starvation & destruction of the people of Gaza. No more to Netanyahu’s sacrificing the hostages for his own gain. No more to U.S. support for bombing and occupation.

The second Trump Admin has been destructive and painful to the American population and America's interest at a global scale.

In the aftermath, we MUST build our nation back better and we MUST NOT allow the same compromises that created the discontent and destruction that led us here.

The most exciting part of Zohran Mamdani's victory is it gives New York the chance to rebrand a "real New Yorker" as something different than an Italian with a history of being a sex pest.

That, and I bet his Cardamom feat. on the Broadway show that Lin-Manuel makes about this is gonna be BUSSIN.

The thing that confused me about renaming Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America is that I always just called it the Gulf Coast.

Which isn't where the Gulf War took place apparently.

Which is also different than the Golf War that every U.S. president engages in once taking office.
