“Experiencing the use of food insecurity as a weapon of control by the government is nothing new to Native Americans

They destroyed our food systems, then forced us to rely on government ration

We didn’t “fail” to be self-sufficient, the system was built to make sure we couldn’t be”

Andrew Cuomo just said in his concession speech that this campaign was about contesting for the Democratic Party.

Well, you lost Andrew, and your ideas are losing.

Working people are sick and tired of corrupt politicians who are beholden to billionaires.

“Walmart was the top employer of SNAP recipients in five states and one of the top four employers in the remaining four states. McDonald’s was among the top five employers of Medicaid enrollees in five of six states and SNAP recipients in eight of nine states.”

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

There is no amount of compliance or submission that will keep people safe from authoritarians.

Removing them from power is the only way forward.

Impeach, convict, remove.
A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Charlie Kirk was a white supremacist who pushed the racist Great Replacement Theory. Kirk was vociferously anti-LGBTQ. Kirk's final words were to besmirch Black people.

Stop this revisionism. People who say bad things don't deserve to be murdered, but they also don't deserve to be praised either.

Designer Ida Persson argues that good design balances curiosity with responsibility by asking "at what cost"?

"When we design digital experiences, products, or services, we’re not just creating things — we’re influencing lives, cultures, and behaviors."

Our city is going through a massive emergency.

People are trying to stay informed + locate loved ones if anything goes badly. Spreading misinfo, fake breaking news alerts, & old videos during a crisis causes confusion & forces people to waste resources.

This isn't hard to understand.

We love these interactive toolkits designed to help kids and teens learn to identify and avoid viral falsehoods and propaganda.

It’s so smart to use Minecraft as a teaching tool. As kids gain independence with digital tools and technology, these are vital skills.

Today, the children at Annunciation Catholic School were shot while praying. Two were killed in the pews.

For most of the last decade, our media and political class has panicked over the idea that progressives were intruding on free speech rights by loudly criticizing people with unpopular views.

How much can we blame social media for our polarized political climate?

@danwphilosophy.bsky.social argues that the narrative that the platforms cause polarization “overlooks deeper political and institutional problems that are reflected on social media, not created by it.”
