If Democratic voters want a Democratic Party that fights, some are going to have to vote against their current representatives during the primaries.

Don’t expect a leopard to change its spots.

Look at who their funders are and act accordingly.

This. 100 times this.
Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

Just watched this cute video, and learned that his mom is Mira Nair. Monsoon Wedding, etc.? I’m sure most of you knew this, but I didn’t.
In less than a week, I will be sworn in as the next mayor of New York City. It was only possible because of the more than 100,000 people who volunteered on our campaign. Here’s a story about one of them, my mother.

I hate taking that stuff, but sometimes it’s the best/only remedy. Feel better.

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

I am a hypermasculine and extremely powerful alpha male. As such my greatest fears are seed oils, rainbows, people who don't look like me being on TV, and preventative medicine. I cannot explain any of these fears and consider that to be your fault.

I am currently watching my partner play the sims, and had to ask what you might have meant. I’m getting an earful.

They have not incentivized these young people to have kids and they know it.

They neglected us Xers, snatched the rug out from under the Millennials’ finances, traumatized Gen Z… now they want the birth rate to go up?!

Give folks single payer healthcare, UBI, housing & a year or two off. Or STFU!

Happy birthday, @uaw.org! Thanks for driving the labor movement forward. 🚗

🧵 The UAW turns 90 today!

The UAW’s legacy isn’t measured only in contracts or factories. It’s seen in the millions of workers whose lives are more secure because they organized together for a better life.

The modern university was a bureaucratic creation, a true modernist project despite medieval trappings and early modern traditions, and as such always contained seeds of its own destruction.
As @lollardfish.bsky.social says, only labor solidarity (sometimes disguised as intellectualism) will save it
It's the managerialism that runs these institutions, an administrative class removed from the core purposes of universities--teaching and researching--which deploys a combination of political, economic, and cultural power to aggrandize themselves through the propagation of bullshit labor
When the dust settles, and if universities have meaningfully survived, it will be worth asking how institutions usually so resistant to thoroughgoing change chose to leap with both feet into an untested technology they didn't understand and didn't know how to use.

The most interesting thing about the DC police takeover is the Epstein files haven’t been released
