Water, food, shelter, health care & education are the foundations of humanity. It's just too bad no one's thought to check on the mortar for the bricks.

Just like you can't be "a little bit pregnant," you either are

ANTIFAscist

or you are

PROFASCIST

It is binary. There is no in between.
Let no one attempt to tell you otherwise.

No Kings

As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

<<Hard Cider>>, a poem
To the Galas! The Crisps! The Fujis!
All squished and refined
So that I
Might imbibe
A bit of your wisdom
In Autumn
But only just
Once a year
To remind myself
When I lived near an orchard
And spoke to your less domesticated cousins
Still hanging on the tree
Forgive me
<gulp>

🎤How would you describe the conditons on the ground at the Marathon today?
🏃‍♂️No time to talk, trying to run from fascism!

And you know they'll take forever, if at all, to fund it again. Excuse after excuse.
Cruelty is the point.

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 3h

The federal food program helping more than 1 in 4 young children access fresh produce, milk, and formula will run out of funding next week.

Over 5 million children could lose food assistance — all thanks to the Trump-Republican shutdown.

The cruelty is endless.

Has anyone asked Pink to update "Dear Mr. President" because the time is NOW.

🎤Tell us about the conditions on the ground.
🎃 Soon my roundness will either be consumed as the filling of a desert to celebrate the slaughter of millions or my flesh will be carved into a grotesque simulacrium of a human face

How is that "Make America Great Again" working out for us again?

Emanuel: China's basically found leverage; they're applying pressure, and they're doing it to soybean farmers. Our farmers have lost that market, are out a huge amount of money, and could see a lot of bankruptcies in the rural parts of the Midwest.

Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine.bsky.social · 5h

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

I see it as the price I must pay for being on a platform that allows me to express myself with taboo or unflattering language. Eventually your choices of who to follow and who you block & mute, will filter out most of the nekkie bits.
Good luck to you & your eyeballs! 🙈

I have just started book #3 of Adrian Tchaikovsky's "Children of Time" series. Fast reads, yet intriguing. If you like deep space opera dramas and exploration of the tension between communication and violence, this series is a winner.

It will take a touch of effort & a bit to stop (I support the right, I just personally don't want to see hairy ball sack dressed like an anime character, I'm here for politics & news)

If you hit the "..." on the right hand side of the post, and then hit "Show me less like this" followed by "block account" or "hide this post for me" for every skin post, after a while, you'll stop seeing them in "Discover" If you get one sent to you, report it as unwanted sexual content

Now do reports by all the protestors affected by those chemical agents. Then, send up all those reports to the *Governor* because this is HIS STATE to manage!

Sure, but our court systems take years to nsvigate, and it's kind of hard to track the slaves if they don't keep records, let alone build a case.
Can you imagine the even larger judicial backlog coming to this country once these fuckers are out of power? So many people seeking justice...

Your use of "other" is also dehumanizing. Immigrants are humans, too. Pieces of paper don't matter for shit when you're being tortured.
Untwist YOUR panties and get correct.

Auntie Po'kchop @auntiepokchop.bsky.social · 8h

Are you serious? Slavery has been a never ending stain on this country since its inception. It has ALWAYS mattered. Have you seen the highway work gangs? Goons on on horses with guns while men pick in hot fields at Angola? It is just as much a melanin issue as it is a human rights issue.

Auntie Po'kchop @auntiepokchop.bsky.social · 8h

Yes, and I want to track every one of those Jade Helm slave camp, HAARP weather weapon, Q pizza chomo parlor, gay frogs, come to take our guns, yellow snek flag waving MF and punch those Nazi fuckers square in face.
Shit is happening & where TF is their crazy NOW?
