We are boycotting the fascist corporations. NO Black Friday for them this year.
I do want to encourage you to shop small businesses though. These are the businesses most hurt by corporate greed.
If you’re a small business, drop a link with your site and what you sell. We want to support YOU!!

My friend Jill has a great idea - as we boycott fascist supporters, consider buying from these amazing small businesses and creators as part of your holiday gift giving strategy.

An amazing c. 3,400 year-old ancient Egyptian dog carved from ivory. This leaping dog opens and closes its mouth as if barking by using a lever below its chest.

Massie: “[Speaker Johnson is] trying to say the rich, powerful men who flew to Epstein Island are the victims now. The only way a ‘Christian man’ can stand up there and sell a lie like that is if he’s already decided in his head that protecting them is somehow okay.”

Honest to god. It’s insanely problematic nobody checks Trump on his misogyny. This creep is the example for how millions of young boys think they should treat girls, and for how millions of young girls think they should be treated. Burn the patriarchy to the ground.

Hello @support.bsky.team
I heard from Sarah Kendzior @sarahkendzior.bsky.social that her account was suspended.
Can you please look into this and reinstate her account? She’s a published author and scholar on authoritarianism. Her presence here is valuable.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

@democrats.senate.gov please DO NOT CAVE, stand up and protect the ACA subsidy. The lives of millions of Americans depend on it. You will have no leverage once you vote to reopen, and no guarantee of ACA protections.

This is why we must question everything that we see or hear!
This false story, shared by Trump on Truth Social, originated on a satire Facebook page "America's Last Line of Defense", who states "Nothing on this page is real".
Obama lives rent free in Trump’s head and will be the scapegoat to justify taking away healthcare for millions of Americans.

NEVER FORGET: Donald Trump & the GOP REFUSE to negotiate with Democrats for extension of ACA Subsidies which = $32B.
Donald Trump gave $40B to Argentina, 75B to ICE, & TRILLIONS in tax cuts to the 1%. Trump's America!

Charlie Kirk Sept 27 2024: "Just so we're clear, the Haitians that are in Huntsville that are raping your women and hunting you down at night - it's only gonna get worse - unless Donald Trump wins
There will be hundreds of thousands of Haitians brought into Alabama and they will become your masters"

I know people are overwhelmed by too much news from every angle, and maybe people are distracted by the "terrorist" language, or just plain exhausted.
But this is the President of the United States saying he is going to go around killing people because he thinks they're criminals. And already did.

Just thinking about the round-the-clock outrage that Fox News and other MAGA media have devoted to Mamdani's proposal to open a handful of city-run grocery stores.
Meanwhile, the president literally just nationalized Intel.
