Housing for all my friends

unfortunately for us New Yorkers, one can be both correct *and* completely insufferable about it.

I loathe how the conclusion of this is "lets blame the individuals" who "take things for granted" rather then blaming systems which have made it hard to impossible to engage with those systems.

Individualistic blaming has to end before we can solve systemic problems.

I had a date last night. It was perfect. Tomorrow, I’ll try a grape.

We need an ideology change. Can we dump neo-liberalism already?

"What Iranians deserve is so ordinary is almost embarrassing to say aloud. They deserve not to spend their mornings calculating whether they will survive until evening. They deserve to be seen as people... not as acceptable losses, not as the unfortunate human context around a geopolitical problem."

Actually we should just give citizenship to every undocumented person in the United States who wants it. Walking over an imaginary line isn't some great moral atrocity. Making people live in the shadows as a permanent underclass absolutely IS.

A ROST MAPLE MOTH!!!! Thats my favorite moth!

getting really tired of this kindergarten brained fixation on Fairness. no fair your kid goes to free preschool when you can afford to go to restaurants sometimes! no fair you use EBT to buy rich tasting food! whence the idea that every fucking thing must be means tested and rationed to death my god

The very obvious thing here is one group (The Bundists) opposed the Nazis and the other (Zionists) collaborated with them.

Happy Worst Day to Be Autistic on the Internet Day! 🥳

Trans women: screw visibility, get pizza! I can buy you one from vendor of choice or send you $30. I can do this for 5 people on March 31. Dm me.

Everyone in the world deserves compassionate.

Corporations are not people.

Shareholders have no rights to profits, ever.

Property is the responsibility of the commons and decisions for it should be by the people who use it; and redistributed accordingly.

At minimum

Honored to have the great artist Caroline Caldwell reinterpret my text in her iconic style

Mr. Rogers would be so proud 🖤

Audre Lorde wrote in her journal, “My feelings are real but not always right.” Again, knowing who to be mad at is part of the work.

*RUMP ADMINISTRATION BETRAYAL, MURDEROUS SABOTAGE

This is the vibe tbh

yo I'm giving talks at these two rad conference to build power against big tech

My talks are about sex workers on the frontlines of tech fascism and what that means for everyone, and what can be learned from ongoing efforts to fight back!

if transitioning didn’t change your sex they wouldn’t be trying to ban it

it is simply bonkers the degree to which we as a society protect the income of landlords

::slides up with historical special interest:: The Luddites were pro-workers rights and anti-industrialization's theft of wages & downgrading of craftmanship. Not anti-tech. I wonder why it's been turned into an insult. I WONDER.

Keep Minnesota Housed! Much of the medía has left, but ICE is still in Minnesota and hundreds of families need help with rent in order to avoid eviction. Visit keepMNhoused.com to adopt a rent or donate to rent funds! #keepMNhoused

Today we are launching a new intitative of Stand With Minnesota—KeepMNHoused.com, a rent-relief campaign backed with a $1.5 matching fund from the Wilson Foundation.

Thousands of MN families are at risk of eviction because of the ICE occupation’s lasting impacts. We can keep them housed.

Bluesky is successful because it consists entirely of elder millennials, who are the only generation to learn how to successfully navigate the web and who understand the internet only has two worthwhile utilities:

1. Piracy
2. Shitposting

IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS. WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK. AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE. SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS. THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES. IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

the Black Panthers were right

we may have deported people, but we did it without disturbing ✨your brunch✨

A great example on why, perhaps, we should use profit motive as a way to research cures for diseases that help all of humanity.

Our incentives are fucked.
Which makes our world fucked.
