The grasshopper gets it — divide and conquer. Today's oligarchs use the same playbook. But together, we have all the power. Watch.

If you go see it, just know that this movie is not a superhero disaster flick. Enjoy!
Saw the new Superman movie yesterday. It was great! I loved it! I really missed our Big Blue Boy Scout so much 😩 I missed the Superman that cared about people. Honestly I just really liked ALL the characters. They did a great job making them all people and not empty caricatures.
"How does it feel to get arrested at 87 years old?
He said "I'm just beginning!"
Just want to take a moment to shout out the international reporters helping us get the real story out. When an 80-year-old veteran with a walker is hauled off with his hands zip-tied behind his back, and the media spins it as a “threatening breach” of a police barricade
I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.
Sorry hon… I’m also having a shitty day (for different reasons). I hope you find at least a little peace today.
Another Library Newsroom meeting tonight — so heartening to hear how everyday folks navigate local bureaucracy, tap local contacts to investigate their stories (when will the rec center re-open?!), and to watch them translate their neighborhood identity into a graphic design
New Mexico conservation leaders said a recent proposed budget from the White House which proposes billions in cuts for water, public lands gut protections.
"It’s like yanking everything all out at once, you’re going to have programs across the nation that will collapse,” one said.
Even *if* you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d *still* need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented.
His argument fails even on its own terms.
I blocked him. It’s a shame too. I saw he like Epic: The Musical, which I love, and I can see where there is a want to fight fascism in him but my god…dude has no lights on inside.
I had to give the ole college try ya know? Limit reached and I CAN say I tried so … 🤷♀️
I swear… y’all are so thick headed. Welp. I think that’s enough of that. I do hope y’all can pull your heads out of your asses one day before you hurt anyone.
And as a point of clarification, I did in fact, look at all of them and weigh the situation for a while before I originally commented. I stand by my statement.
Dude… do you hear yourself? You are calling me a Nazi because I’m saying we absolutely should not be making light of the hat situation. It is the chosen symbol of a group of people hell bent on hurting others. Like dude. Again I say, this is not a joke. These hats are the hats of Nazi wannabes.
Look I get your point but there is a literal maga hat in his hands and the parody hats are not nearly parody enough. The cultures that originally had the swas tica have long since stopped using it bc it’s now a symbol of hate and violence. The red hat is the same unless it is different at a glance.
How is this even a joking matter for you? Or are you seriously unbothered by the fact that the red hat has become a symbol of fascism?
A screenshot from the CDC website showing that the National Firefighter Registry for Cancer is closed
The entirety of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health was wiped out last night in a form letter sent by RFK Jr.
NIOSH is an agency in the CDC that investigates workplace hazards and finds solutions. It protects workers, so it’s gone. Even firefighters.
Very valid righteous fury. I suppose I’ve already written him off and wasn’t coming from the proper place of “no goddamn fascists allowed.” Neil has always been a p.o.s. so I’m not surprised he’s pandering more openly now to the magat crowd.
They are absolutely tilted yes but, it’s not “just a hat” anymore than certain red armbands were “just armbands” in 1940s Germany… Don’t sit here and pretend it’s “no big deal.” This isn’t a game. It is very much a big deal.
Turns out you can shape the agenda with dramatic action and maybe even shift public opinion. Crazy.
Honestly? I despise The Church ™️ because they haven’t shown themselves to be like your pastor. If this is what you have to share, I’m all ears ❤️ tell him thank you for me please
Not sure who needs to hear this, but any govt official who violates someone's constitutional rights -- and is acting outside the scope of their lawful authority -- can be PERSONALLY liable in a civil suit.
ICE officers. Cabinet members. White House staffers. Even the president.
I wrote about my own complicated, expensive immigration visa application for Vox in 2019, and I still hear from people about how it is one of the very few in-depth articles about the immigration process not written by a law firm: www.vox.com/the-goods/20...
I am right there with you neighbor. I haven’t seen her(?) posts yet. I’ll go check them out here in a bit.
