I do like how I saw that quoted skeet a few minutes ago and had basically the same exact reaction as both you and @huerojack.bsky.social

April 21, 1937: Congressman Ordered to Jim Crow Section of Train Illinois congressman Arthur W. Mitchell was ordered to move to the Jim Crow car of the train once it entered Arkansas.

#tdih 1937, Illinois congressman Arthur W. Mitchell had paid for 1st class ticket, told to move to Jim Crow car in Arkansas.

Went to court & lost.

Appealed to SCOTUS.

He won.

In retaliation, white political leaders ended his political career in Chicago. 🧵

an admin so inefficient that they need 8 words to say yes

"I'm one of the good ones" is a hell of a drug

Surrounded by languages, god forbid you learn something.

Also GONZALES???? Miss Gusano says what??

Head of NYC housing nonprofit jailed over court-ordered repairs at Harlem building The case marks an unusual example of a nonprofit landlord arrested and jailed over conditions in a building his organization owns.

A NYC nonprofit executive was jailed last week after a housing court judge found his organization failed to make court-ordered repairs at one of its Harlem apartment buildings

Tweet by Martina Navratilova. "Predator. That is how he should register. A sexual predator…" quote-tweeting a tweet by "Biology Rules OK" about Dr. Beth Upton, a trans woman

This tweet is highly defamatory and Martina Navratilova should be fired from BBC Sport for it.

It demonstrates an horrendous level of hatred for a trans woman (who was cleared of all wrongdoing in a recent tribunal) because she is a trans woman.

this story really upset me for various reasons, but the part i found most dystopian was how a private entity tracked Charles Oakley **outside of the arena and around the country**.

just because they can, at the whims of one of the most evil sports team owners ever.

they're so angry about all allegations against her being thrown out that they are hounding her to another country with more false, vicious allegations. but they're definitely the good guys!

Not really, & it's only you liberals who are obsessed with "purity" as an unattainable goal. Genocide is happening all over the world with US support, so we just throw up our hands & choose to do nothing? No, we commit to countering it as we can.

America would’ve been a much nicer country if their rulers hadn’t structured their entire economy and society and culture around pleasing the auto industry and then we wouldn’t have had sentences like this

HEY MAN
WHAT THE FUCK

WHY IS EVERY CANDIDATE IN THE CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR’S RACE A TOTE BAG OF MEDICAL WASTE

Yea I've seen those - big biiiiig. That place had some surprisingly good sized food at not batshit prices for a ballpark. Shake Shack, Fuku, the fresh nachos spot across from SS/BS

Yea that one was up there. Blue Smoke at Citifield when they were on point? That might've been the best. Quality varied wildly from day to day tho.

I think those are my top 2

I still don't fully understand why that IDF soldier pulling a statue of Christ off that crucifix and smashing its head in with a hammer is doing more diplomatic harm than the attacks on the Holy Family Church in Gaza did

All they got are lies.

Eat shit to transphobes.

And double eat shit to those hospital administrators and boards who complied in advance with those illegal threats.

Screenshot from Mastodon, white text on black background: Erik Uden @ErikUden@mastodon.de Once libraries are nonexistent any modern fascist movement wouldn't even have to burn books, but flick one switch and they'd be remotely deleted from your Amazon Kindle or similar digital "library". Capitalists are already building the infrastructure to do this through DRM, so stop believing tech is apolitical - the defunding of libraries and paywalling of information are all part of this.

A reminder during #NationalLibraryWeek, libraries are our best and last defense against the fascist monopoly on knowledge and information

"Defund the police is bad messaging!" I don't know man, maybe you wait to say that part after "the largest line item in every city budget shouldn't be overpaid cowards who refuse to do their jobs" but otherwise it's pretty straightforward.

Seriously, fuck that guy.

An image showing a soldier in olive drab military gear, including a helmet and tactical vest, using a long-handled tool to dismantle or strike a life-sized, upside-down statue of Jesus on a crucifix. The statue is white and positioned outdoors near a stone wall, a solar panel, and some greenery.

This is an IDF soldier in Lebanon smashing a Jesus statue with a sledgehammer. It's obviously unacceptable but what gets me is the outrage this elicits when the political class never cared about the destruction of Mosques in Gaza. It takes their religious symbols being destroyed for them to care.

i love this for both of them, i hope all the lawyers have a good time

A vertical screen print style poster in red, yellow and black, featuring the quote by Dom Helder Camara: "When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist." The edges of the poster show a packed village with small houses, and a road leading to skyscrapers in the far background. A red sun in the upper right shines its long yellow rays across the image.

“When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist.”

Originally made as a screen print in 1990, we now offer this thought-provoking poster digitally printed on heavy cover stock.

This is nice and all to see in the papers. Doing it anonymously is kinda weak. Say it with your whole chest. Drive the point home.

Israel escalates attacks on medics in Lebanon with deadly ‘quadruple tap’ Lebanese health ministry says killing of 91 healthcare workers shows ‘total disregard’ for international law

The Israeli army struck civilians in the Lebanese city of Mayfadoun.

And then, the Israelis double-tapped the medics who arrived onto the scene.

And then, they triple-tapped the next wave of medics.

And then, they did it one more time for good measure.

This is the inevitable endpoint of one of the truly unifying political projects of the 2010s: ensuring that comically bigoted far right crackpots should decide what is and is not racist, a thing almost the entire political/class bent their will towards.

Buy so many that you never run out.

tiktok & IG are making teenagers kill themselves. facebook tipped your nan from daily mail headbanger to thinking she will be stabbed by gay 5G hooligans if she goes outside. twitter is owned by essentially a trillionaire baby king who begged to be let on a paedophiles island. they all spy on you

bluesky doesnt let you ever delete your posts properly so the CIA (or whatever weird version of it exists) can probably fit you up & get you executed as a communist retrospectively in the future, it also won't let you lock your account against stalkers and look what liberals on here did to shah
