The Sin of Comfort

Florida’s election results (ideally)

Check out how easy this is.

This is not beautiful to see. This is the most racist democracy on planet earth, and people just expect Black people to sing negro spirituals and "overcome." It's not working. This still happens for one reason and one reason only: white US folk don't hold each other accountable for this racism.

The American white collar workforce started working from home three days a week for like six months a year into COVID and executives so thoroughly lost their minds over this that they installed Trump II. If anything, AI will create the 7-day workweek.

ICE is slamming far northern Illinois for a second day in a row. Rapid responders in Rockford say federal agents detained a group of roofing workers this morning—eight men all the way from Minnesota. Volunteers are currently trying to locate their families. From a local immigration attorney:

If your reaction to Wemby saying this is a hearty “hell yeah”, it behooves me to let you know that @theguardian.com does not take business from betting companies, we have a great sports section, no paywall, and a great app. www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/o...

Cornell University treating Gaza protestors more harshly than gang rapists is a real statement of values. It’s almost like violent domination by the powerful is the core belief of leadership.

#tdih 1962, "Silent Spring" by Rachel Carson published, exposed impact of pesticides on environment. Carson was vilified: called a Communist, disloyal, unscientific, and hysterical. Sound familiar? Attacks on truth tellers, with media complicity. See⬇️🧵 www.zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/si...

Fighting for working people from Michigan to Florida. 46 days to elect Abdul El-Sayed and Angie Nixon to the U.S. Senate.

True story.

This is Cadence on her first day of 2-K last week in Jamaica, Queens. Her mom Christine said she was brave and ready to learn. Stories like Christine and Cadence's aren't fairytales. They're a real family positively impacted by programs like free child care. nyc.gov/storytime

OMG! Supreme Court rebuffs Trump's attempt to break mail-in voting 7-2 We @democracydefendersfund.org were proud to file a brief in support of this outstanding outcome for LULAC & working with CLC Also a VERY important signal of how Trump's other election sabotage efforts will be treated

blizzard workers had to fight tooth and nail for years, but they finally did it: they secured a union contract not just for one team, but for all unionized units--warcraft, overwatch, diablo, and more

john fetterman is the first rat in history to climb onto a sinking ship.

worth tying this into the political economy of the slave south as well. from roughly the 1820s onwards, slavery became enormously lucrative in ways that had never been seen before. slave traders became millionaires. large planters had tremendous purchasing power. just huge amounts of wealth.

💥 THIS WEEK AT KAPOW 💥 Game night, phonebanking for Justin Pearson, an art build, tax help, Mutual Aid Day, and a sneak peek of the KAPOW Handbook on Sunday's stream! Come hang out, make something, pitch in :)

I don't like that LeBron partnership with Polymarket, at all. I didn't like Giannis partnering with Kalshi either. Matter of fact, I don't like athletes, past or present, partnering with gambling sites, period.

Technology being everywhere doesn’t mean it belongs everywhere. The tech industry wants us to believe that AI in early education is not only inevitable, but necessary. We don't see it that way. This week, we announced a moratorium on generative AI for public school students in 2-K to 8th grade.

Love her down, but no.

The world’s most visible white African chose Africa to be the locus of his vendetta against humanity That’s not an accident… that’s the synthesis of white supremacist ideology and the fulcrum of totalitarianism

I’m truly hoping that lot of kids give into their (destructive) intrusive thoughts early in the school year.

This is how to speak to every single one of those sycophants.

Me: "It's time to start eating healthy." Lettuce: "I'm going to give you explosive diarrhea!" Chips and cookies in my pantry: "I would never do that to you."

shoutout the chucklefuck pundit who insisted once that “environmental racism” was a nonsense term

My partner and I are doing a fundraiser for a family in Gaza trying to survive the genocide. For every donation of $25, I'll send you a handmade (by me!) Palestine knot bracelet or a Knicks one. (I’m covering postage costs for all domestic orders.) Please DM me if you’d like to make a donation.
