Kermit as a tarot card

"If there is a woman oppressed by colonialism, we cannot achieve feminism goals."

Protesters in South Korea's capital, Seoul, rallied in solidarity with Palestinian and Iranian women on International Women’s Day, marching toward the US Embassy.

ICE is completely lawless.

AOC on ICE: It’s our task to figure out how to claw back what has essentially supercharged this agency into becoming a relentless domestic paramilitary that is also a blank check to Palantir to create facial-recognition scans on U.S. citizens.

AOC: This is quite a bit of market concentration. Agreed?

CVS HEALTH CHAIR DAVID JOYNER: No. I'd suggest it's a model that works well for the consumer

AOC: It works well for CVS. Health insurance gets a cut, pharmacy benefit manager gets one, drug manufacturer gets one, & the patient gets screwed

can someone explain how there aren't emergency sessions on Capitol Hill when the mad king is about to blow up every treaty and agreement we have with virtually every country in the world over an illegal land grab? It seems like the end of the civilized world is imminent and NO ONE IS DOING ANYTHING.

I know lots of people are saying some version of this, but I have to add: how the actual fuck are the Dems managing to fumble their opponents terrorizing citizens, shitting all over NATO, and protecting the Epstein pedos? Neoliberalism + the political consultant class needs to gooooo

Thank you for reading it! ✨

I researched every attempt to stop fascism in history. The success rate is 0%. Once they win elections, it's already too late.

It’s worse than “Gaza is being starved and destroyed and no one cares.” It’s that hundreds of millions *do* care and are powerless to stop it. We need a world where that can never happen, where the masses actually have political power.

Andrea Gibson is still with us, every moment & forever, even when we’re not reading them. But to read Andrea Gibson is to make a new “every moment” a new forever a mix of new and old—forgetting time has any hold on us entirely. Thank you, always-poet.

My heart sank so fast.

Why hasn’t musk been arrested for anything? He breaks laws & NO ONE can come up w/ a charge? He stole govt $ & info, made himself co-prez, colonized the very skies. Meanwhile if a woman 8wks pregnant drives out of Idaho for an abortion, SHE’S a criminal. He has an army of fetii on ice! WTAF?!
