It’s time for the world to Boycott, Divest and Sanction the U.S
Avoid the Olympics, World Cup and other sporting events. There’s no reason to celebrate the 250 birthday of this fallen nation

Reminder that two weeks ago, the US government had $900 billion to give to the military to be able to do things like commit war crimes in Venezuela, but they cut precisely the same amount in healthcare for poor and disabled folks in July, and millions more people are losing healthcare as we speak.

"The impact of ending the subsidies, alongside the myriad other attacks on health care access, is hard to overstate." My latest for @prismreports.org: prismreports.org/2025/12/10/a...
Thanks to @thetattooedjew.com @jz-or-not.bsky.social @seemiaroll.bsky.social for your comments and advocacy!
For disabled people, slashing health care subsidies is ‘eugenics policy,’ advocates say
Millions rely on the Affordable Care Act, especially disabled people who benefit from flexible jobs and often have more health care needs

what a gift it was to have @sfdirewolf.bsky.social as a friend in this life. her wisdom, her genuine care for her people, her thoughtfulness, her deep deep love for community. i am really not sure how the world keeps turning without her, but knowing her, she’ll figure out a way to keep us going.

shoutout to all the Dems who sold out the American people tonight, but a huge “fuck you” goes to Senator Fetterman for being an especially giant, unbreakable piece of shit from the dehydrated ass of the Democratic Party 🥰

You actually don’t have to hand it to Donald Trump. You don’t have to give him credit for anything. He’s a horrible human being who has never known a day of suffering in his life. Nor does he care an ounce about the suffering of anybody else. Hope that helps.

Over the last 5+ years, the COVID-fighting “toolkit” should’ve expanded, not narrowed. Now, RFK Jr's attacks on the COVID vaccines throw into harsh relief the reality that we only have one "tool" left. Where is the institutional mitigation?
My latest:

With RFK's Attacks on the COVID Vaccine It's Official: We Don't Have the Tools
RFK's moves to limit access to the COVID vaccine are the latest in a long line of moves that shrank- rather than expanded- the size of the so-called anti-COVID "toolbox"

I don’t have much to say about the Georgia political news except this: a lot of y’all expected near perfection out of a Black woman but seem to give every bit of grace and a pair of wide open arms to a white man who was an active part of so much harm in our state. Maybe you should think about why 🤗

How many Palestinians in Gaza were shot and killed today? How many of them were children? How many of them didn’t ask for nor celebrate nor perpetuate the kind of violence they’re subjected to on a daily basis?

How many of you care?

when i was 6 years old, i woke up on september 2nd and found my triplet brother paul — my best friend since we shared a womb and truly one of my soulmates in life — had died in his sleep. 28 years later, there has never been a single day since that i haven’t thought about him.
