We're capturing children off the street at gunpoint to get one last ride of garish nostalgia for an America that never was. A future dramatically better is available at the end of this, and the choice will be stark for anyone with a brain, but we've gotta be loud and uncompromising in the meantime.

More of this please. Those of us who have had our paths cross with coercive controllers, felt that familiarity very early one. It’s a battle to control the blame and the accountability.
I have always been committed to nonviolence but the way a lot of people are talking about nonviolence right now has really been bothering me, and I realized it was reminding me of @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social’s She Made Him Do It Theory of Everything: www.meditationsinanemergency.com/the-she-made...

Absolutely fire. As usual.
I made a long video about the "someone's got to do it" memes, where they came from, what they're really saying, and what these posts reveal about collective trauma, political cynicism, our decaying faith in democratic institutions and so so much more. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXrj...

If you're a writer, research & write stories about anti-fascist resistance. If you're a game designer, make games about resistance. If you're a teacher, teach about the history of resistance.
Every culture worker alive right now has a pressing responsibility to do this. Our lives depend on it

Large banner we printed for the April 5th protests. I believe this from the @indivisible.org text. I believe this banner was marched in Seattle.

Wanted to get our Etsy shop out there for those interested in our signs. We offer free zine and art downloads on our website but if you need a (durable) printed sign that will hold up to the multiple protests we are going to need, we can also ship anywhere. ❤️

Just printed two of these large (by request) for the protest on Saturday...alongside now dozens of requests this week for our own designs (available at @politicalsidequest.bsky.social) The demand is much higher ahead of this protest than previous marches...

This guy doesn’t know what the F is going on??? I’m sure other countries are sitting back, calm and collected because they see how reliable Trump admin has been so far…Don’t retaliate? And then what? Tariffs get raised anyhow. wtf?
Bessent: I would advise none of the countries to panic. I wouldn't try to retaliate because as long as you don't retaliate, this is the high end of the number.

I helped build a government AI system. DOGE fired me, rolled the AI out to the whole agency, and implied the AI can do my job and the jobs of the others they've fired.
It can't. But, what DOGE accidentally revealed about themselves in the process is fascinating. 🧵
