Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

Three persons in inflatable frog costumes. One of them is holding a nicely painted sign with two little cartoon frogs holding hands, below the text "FROGS TOGETHER STRONG"

Sadly Sudan's community kitchens didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize in the end but, they have definitely won our hearts. As has world kitchen in Gaza and their medical teams and the Sudanese Red Crescent society. Not some politician asking dictators for help or a racist shitbag president.

My name is Sakher, and this is my new account — after my old one was suddenly taken down.
For the past 4 days, I’ve been silent… not because I wanted to, but because I lost my only voice — the place where I used to speak to the world.
More talk in the comments….

And many disabled ppl work.. whether they are able to or not simply bc they don't qualify for assistance.
And sometimes this is only bc their partner works.

They don't have to......

Mother fuckers... Disabled ppl WANT to work. But CAN'T... This isn't a choice.

It's like being gay. You just are. Except anyone can randomly become disabled. At any point in life.

Like, I wonder if they'd say some shit like this to someone who lost a limb to machinery.

Other than safety... I don't think these assholes know how cumbersome taking a bus with luggage is.
Done it a few times in uni (same with riding the bus with all my art shit)

Like... Ppl can use easier methods of travel for certain things.

Where the fuck is ppls whimsy

Protest by having a street part... Lift your spirits....

Like, think, what would bring joy? While also being disruptive.

The Irish dress up as clowns to protest bc it lets the greater public know who the bigger clowns are. Bc it's silly to arrest a clown.

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year.

The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

Donate if you can, share regardless

Palestinians now have to rebuild. They've lost everything in Gaza. They still need our help.

The bombs may have stopped falling, but the struggle is far from over.

I’m Reem, from Gaza. The war may be over, but we still live in the middle of its ashes. I was a college student. I was studying, dreaming and planning a life of hope but I lost everything in my home. My family’s livelihood has been erased💔😭

God willing, this will be the end of the war.
Today, a preliminary ceasefire agreement was announced between the parties, and our hearts are full of hope that this will be the beginning of peace — after all the destruction, pain, and loss.

“You’re always playing the race card”

Anyone who says this has no idea how power dynamics work.

Race is not a card I can play. It is a hand I’m dealt.

Black people have never had the power to keep white people from voting, reading, or writing. If anyone’s had a race card, it’s white people.
