Millions of Americans have been raised in families where even the old grandpa or uncle or father who said racist shit and creeps on the kids is still allowed to carve the Turkey at Thanksgiving.

Trump is the ultimate "Oh, he's old and if we just pretend, it'll be better than making a scene."

The least cool people in the country are very mad they can't force people to think they're cool, and start imitating their "coolness."

"There's truth underneath all this fake outrage. Conservatives really are at a disadvantage in pop culture because most creative people are liberals, which has always been true & probably always will be. While MAGA has had some success building a culture machine, what it produces is mostly banal."

Dinner time reskeet. I'm a disabled queer man who can't survive without your help! Thanks to fibromyalgia I basically can't do anything and I moved across the country a year ago to be able to stay housed without couch surfing but I still need #MutualAid support to pay my rent and eat. Please share!

It's #MutualAid Monday and time for a new post! I've got fibromyalgia and can't work anymore, and thanks to Trump I've lost SNAP, so I need your help paying rent and buying food! Please share and donate if you can!

Durbin on whether Democrats can use reining in ICE in Chicago as a precondition to rein in the government says “can’t do that. It’s gotta be health care all the way.”

REI is closing unionized stores. So many companies that like to pretend to be progressive remain still virulently anti-union at their core. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/10/08/b...

REI said it will close three locations on the East Coast, including a store in Boston, as it launches a new strategic plan.

It wasn't the genocide that freed the hostages.

It was a ceasefire deal.

Because the genocide was never about the hostages, no matter how much Netanyahu and his band of fucking fascists claim victory.

U.S. Northern Command says that elements of the Texas national guard are now “employed in the greater Chicago area.”

The statement claims that they’ve been deployed to protect ICE and federal property.

I would WARN protestors of the risk so that they could make an informed decision.

And then I would PRAISE those who choose to do so anyway for their bravery and for what they are willing to sacrifice for freedom.

The argument I would make if I were an Illinois Dem is, these dudes will murder protestors if things escalate so we have to curb it.

But they should not be making that choice for protestors. That is not their job.

FWIW, not all female bosses on the Hill have bad reputations. Plenty of them inspire loyalty because they treat their staff well. Every Warren campaign staffer I know loves her. Patty Murray has a deep alumni team that admires her. AOC treats her staff well. Same with Tina Smith

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

anyway, a @teenvogue.com classic:

"Antifa grows out of a larger revolutionary politics that aspires toward creating a better world, but the primary motivation is to stop racists from organizing; doing that can take many forms, and so the tactical repertoire of anti-fascists is broad."
