"If there is no boundary between real and unreal, good and evil, life and death, then nothing means anything, and we face a nihilist abyss." @marcishore.bsky.social in #IWMPost @iwm.at

“By the time the overhaul is finished, it’ll affect pick-ups at roughly 24,000 of the country’s 33,700 post offices, impacting roughly 149 million Americans across 70% of U.S. zip codes.”
Infrastructure isn’t neutral. Who gets access, and who doesn’t, is a political choice.
When communities can move, they can rise. They can gather and protest. That’s why public transportation always has and always will be a civil rights issue.
We love to see it 🥰

Read this. Then read it again.
House with a power line down in front of it. Keep 35 feet away. You can’t tell whether or not a power line is energized just by looking at it.
There’s power outages across the state and downed power lines all over. If you see a downed power line, move away from it and anything touching it. Keep 35 feet away. You can’t tell if a power line is energized by looking at it. Call 911 if there’s danger. Call your utility to just report the line.
Families are paying more and more for electricity, but instead of backing clean, cheap energy that would lower costs and deliver relief, Washington Republicans are siding with polluters over the American people.
BREAKING: House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ discharge petition has reached 218 signatures, clearing the threshold needed to force a vote on a clean, three-year extension of Obamacare premium subsidies.
When Marie Antoinette said, "let them eat cake", it was in response to the statement that the people had no bread. She said it sarcastically, as if the people could afford cake. So, when Trump cuts SNAP, it is not so people can eat cake but so they can starve.
I got a raise and hadn’t yet updated my insurance when I moved states and my premium went from $12.22 to the lowest option being $315 🙃
Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.
Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.
They are not the same.
At a moment when SNAP is getting cut for 41 million Americans and groceries are almost prohibitively expensive, I had better not see anything about financial literacy classes.
Financial literacy classes for the poor implies that poverty is their fault.
They don’t need classes. They need finances!
Congratulations to #CleanSlate and the 2.2 million folks in Illinois who finally received some long overdue relief! More of this energy, please 🫶🏻
What did people do before SNAP?”
They died.
Healthcare, vaccines, disability support, education & food assistance are vital to our survival.
They’re why the average lifespan isn’t 35 anymore
The mark of a good & decent society is whether it sees the value in helping others.
This! 👇🏼 I’ll never understand how empathy only seems to extend to those doing the harm.
SCREAMING 😭😭😭
A Tennessee woman is having to travel to Virginia for prenatal care because the DR in her area has denied her care on the grounds that she's an unwed mother.
Tennessee has passed a law to allow DRs to discriminate against anyone so long as DRs claim it's about "religious beliefs."

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ICE agents wear masks because they are concerned about their safety.
YOU FUCKING NAZI KIDNAPPER TERRORIST FUCK no one as in NO ONE gives a FUCK about your FUCKING "safety"! You're violating human rights and you fucking DESERVE anything and everything that FUCKS with your FUCKING SAFETY.
😀
Empathy is not just recognizing that someone is in pain.
It’s feeling with them. It’s pausing your own agenda to sit with someone in theirs.

but community?
community is freedom.
when we feed each other,
when we show up,
when we say you deserve to be held—
that’s revolution.
today, we don’t celebrate a nation.
we celebrate us.
the ones still dreaming.
still resisting.
still building something better.

not everyone gets fireworks.
some get ICE raids.
some get evictions.
some get folded flags instead of fathers.
this land was never free.
not for the ones it was stolen from.
not for the ones forced to build it.
not for the ones still surviving under its weight.
Farm workers feed America. This picker’s hands are green for months from picking tomatoes
