Kinda awesome. When the culture war gets turned up to 10, maybe all we can do is go to 11. Burn it all the way out

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

"Donald Trump and Mike Johnson are engaging in a cover-up to shield people who were involved in raping children."

Rep. Melanie Stansbury

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

Only one thing could top the honor of speaking at the No Kings rally, and that's the honor of speaking at No Kings 2. See you October 18th!

WATCH: ‘Portland Frog’ pepper balled by ICE agents

It’s pronounced cyclist.

More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

Fake AI videos mocking dead celebrities are going viral. We talked to their families, and they're horrified.

Unbearably violent images from Downtown Chicago where a classical music concert was played on the Chicago River. This is too elegant and magical to be seen.

What. The. Fuck.

Imagine being mad you didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize while you’re busy stirring up Civil War in your own country.

It's really important to show up for each other in this moment. If you're in the area, I highly recommend that you come out in solidarity today. Meet some people. Make some plans. Do some organizing. Save some democracy.

👀A Rutgers professor who teaches an anti-fascism class was blocked from leaving the US hours > Trump’s “Antifa” roundtable w/ Jack Posobiec who has called Bray a “domestic terrorist professor.” TPUSA at Rutgers has called him an “antifa member,” a claim he denies. He’s received death threats. 1/

Yes. Yes it is

This is terrorism, no?

ICE getting tailed like it’s a heist movie. Chicago is turning the tables.

This is really important. I was recently talking to folks in Chicago who said that much as they fear ICE detaining children without due process, they worry even more that child traffickers will don their same masks and do even worse.

@gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social don't give this crook a single second of peace! SWEAR IN @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social, RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!

The Great Khan, understanding the magnitude of the battles to come, stoically prepared his forces with brave words of a democratic union that works for all peoples. The huddled masses, fearful of impending terror, took strength in his words and continued to rally in the streets, chanting and dancing

This is dumb & unimportant given <gestures at all the other lawless authoritarianism that is killing people & dismantling our entire government/society> but also emblematic of how we simply don't live under a Republic of laws & the Constitution anymore.
