If you'd like to give me money:

Venmo: @/JWBMKUltra5499
PayPal: @/JacobBrannan5499
I wish I had money.

It wouldn't fix everything but it would give me the safety net and capability to work towards fixing things.

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

Got Bea's refill. Thank you to everyone who helped and shared. If anyone is able to help us with our phone payments for December and the electric bill, that is also very much appreciated.
I think we're good covering Bea's refill, if anyone is able to keep giving to her so she can cover her phone payments for this and next month, please do. Anyone who can help us with our electric bill for December is also really appreciated.

I need to start putting some money aside for Bea's upcoming prescription refill at the end of this month. Without a GoodRX coupon it's over $100 but with it comes down to >$50 (I'm hoping to find an applicable coupon for our Walgreens), but if anyone can help or share it's really appreciated.

If thine is the glory, then mine must be the shame
You want it darker
We kill the flame
Magnified, sanctified
Be the holy name
Vilified, crucified
In the human frame
A million candles burning
For the help that never came
You want it darker

John Waters/David Lynch: chaotic good
John Waters/William S. Burroughs: chaotic neutral
John Waters/Leslie van Houten: chaotic neutral
John Waters/Henry Kissinger: chaotic EVIL

What if we kissed and then read a little bit of the The Warren Commission Report: The Official Report of the President's Commission on the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy and then went to bed together?

Aldous Huxley and C.S. Lewis both died the same day as JFK.

If we can get another $20-30 just to be safe we should be good (and it should cover Bea's phone payment for December as well). If you're able to help us, please do, and share too, it's really appreciated, thank you all!

I do think it might be helpful for leftists to start calling Mamdani a Keynesian, describe what Keynesianism is and how it’s better than unhindered capitalism but it’s ultimately a band aid solution.
I guess my take on Mamdani (who I don’t consider a socialist) meeting with Trump is that I see the practicality in placating Trump to a point but I also think people should be on their guard and hold his feet to the fire on getting policy that potentially could help people through.

Great question. I’m a big fan of a lot of queer history and literature (Burroughs, Samuel R Delaney, Isherwood, Baldwin, Woolf etc.) before or during Stonewall. I feel like it’s important to take in how queerness manifested in days when it was ostensibly suppressed enough to be made invisible.
What's something or someone unapologetically queer that you love?

I personally feel like Zohran shouldn't have met with Trump...but he's a politician playing diplomatic so I get it.

Tomorrow is the 62nd anniversary of JFK's assassination for anyone interested and I promise I will be normal about it.

I have wondered at times if it's paramount to an existential crisis for Canadians when they fully recognize and acknowledge that they're kinda the same as the U.S.

We are very much sibling nations, not just geographically but historically, politically, and in many aspects culturally.
Canadian fascism will manifest covered in maple syrup, holding a hockey stick and saying “Well, at least we’re not as bad as the Americans.”

I feel like the Ivy League really lost any credibility it *may* have had when it started collabing with the American intelligence and business community to groom young men for positions of power who would take part in the toppling of left wing democracies across the world throughout the 20th century
The moment in life I learned that the Ivy League doesn’t actually mean shit.

French authorities are taking X to court because Grok is now doing straight up holocaust denial. Gas chambers intended for disinfection, cyanide residue tiny, ‘story’ persists because of taboo against critical examination. (Full translation in alt text)

The way the Black Panthers understood food aid as a crucial form of self defense against the capitalist machinery of the racial state remains essential to the struggle against fascism today.
