this corrosion

Read books in between doomscrolling. Make stuff & then give it away. Watch shit that makes you laugh. Protect your neighbors. Do things that make evil people sad. Stay alive.

3rd gen union family here so I’m all in anyway, but I also want to say that HGSU signed on early to @protectransfutures.bsky.social’s Protect Trans Care Coalition & that meant a lot to me. My lungs don’t let me walk picket lines anymore, but they do let me drop off Dunkin & boost the strike fund.

We dont need to reinvent proletarian movement or a culture of street resistance from first principles, as we did in the wake of the classical workers mvmt. There have been incredible experiments in mutual aid, democratic power and revolutionary organization, even if some have been drowned in blood

We are in the beginning of the middle of the revolutionary era, and once again anything can change, everything is up for grabs. Weve learned over the last fifteen years that anything can change can often mean things get worse, but power, solidarity and liberation are building too

excellent bluesky feed serendipity featuring @secretaboutbox.bsky.social and @tusk81.bsky.social

holy shit! i went into a zoom meeting high on serbia and came out of it to see this! hot damn, Rest of World!

repost if you will never vote for a democrat willing to harm trans kids puberty blockers are medicine hormones are medicine nobody is carving your kids up children know who they feel like

Aww, it’s been a minute since I missed Louvre of Bluesky.

so the xx/xy group plan to 'protect women's sports' by infiltrating supporters' sections, whining online about being called names, then posting photos and trying to dox teams' most passionate fans? at this point not treating them like a hate group akin to the proud boys or kkk is willful ignorance.

1. If you’re not following @gillianbrockell.com what are you even doing. 2. This is absolutely “holy shit” territory but I suspect they’ll say things changed at last min & his ppw for entry back to US wasn’t ready, given they made such a fuss of it in the update. (Side note: he shouldn’t need any.)

idk wtf happened over at L.A. Taco but it don't look like the same place adjust subscriptions accordingly, and do what you can for the migrant community in L.A., shit's bad

this, btw, is why i do mutual aid instead of electoral politics. i will be very happy for everyone if dems take back congress, and then i will watch no trans youth clinics reopen & no change in the ICE terror campaigns & no acknowledgement of the wealth divide that may end up swallowing all of us.

how your email finds me:

so like two weeks ago some bot was saying a.i. was going to be the future of music and I was like, bullshit, the future of music is taking the weird shit your 3 yr old says & turning it into the song about the tall tall tall little man. a.i. could never.

Young ppl w/ SIJS are abuse & neglect survivors who courts have said should stay in the US, but there’s a huge visa backlog & ICE is just chucking everyone onto planes if they can. If you know any lawyers (like any kind) NIP has info sessions Oct 20 & 22 on how to help, cause this shit ain’t right.

Lots of people are reposting this for AES’s takedown of dude’s dumbass question but I want to boost it for the next level captioning. One speaker’s words are in yellow and one in white, making it really easy to follow. The text is a great size & doesn’t flash weirdly. Just very considerately done.

@bostonisa.bsky.social we see u!

Dear Excel, I will never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever mean 1931.

I Know What You Did Last Summer For Tax Purposes

reform will always look like this abolition is the only way forward

Bovino whiskey name, wrong answers only. My 1st submission: Reviled Turkey.

The line includes pants with a “chair rise” (higher rise in the back, lower in front, good for if you spend most of the day seated) so I conclude they did indeed do some research. You never can tell with capitalism but this feels like more than tokenism & I appreciate it.

Bluesky hid this response, and honestly, what a disservice to the community. This is a collective work of art.

Ok so. Organizing my thoughts. This does not make it illegal to prescribe blockers or hormones, and private insurance can cover it, just not Medicaid/CHIP. There are, as I type this, amazing people quietly working to connect youth who may lose coverage w/ new options. Democrats will not save us.

Gently placing this inside my mental “this is how I know we’ll win” box for future reference

BBC announces BBC documentary exploring their own ass

Y’know, I’m already having enough of a week without this chucklefuck showing up in my feed touting the holistic benefits of govt-produced snuff films, thanks

when something scary happens to ilhan i think about this photo. you’d never know from how brave she is that she isn’t seven feet tall. we’ve all got to have her back, because she isn’t just some character on capitol hill, she’s a real human, with real children, who deserves to be safe in her home.

Wait, hold up. No one moved her? They just…left her at her parents’ house? And no one even told the cops “hey, you’re gonna get crazy calls about 123 This St.; those will all be criminal harassment & false reports”? Where in the absolute living motherfuck is this woman’s community?? Where are WE?

I don’t want “agents.” I don’t want wearables or Charms or integrated algorithmic personalization that enhances my life & lifestyle. I literally just want this:

AFAIK there’s still nothing stopping members of Congress from showing up at the doors of these places every fucking day demanding their legal right to inspect the conditions. With lawyers and federal marshals. 58 people have died in these buildings, held only for a civil violation, since Jan 2025.

¿Necesita ayuda con temas de inmigración pero no tiene abogado? Hemos renovado nuestro Centro de Recursos. ImmDef.org/Resources ahora incluye: ✅ Recursos para Personas en Detención ✅ Recursos para la Corte ✅ Trámites y Solicitudes ante USCIS ✅ Cómo Prepararse para una Emergencia Migratoria

Lotta people pulling a double shift today, huh.

Believe me: it’s WAY better to credit indie sources than to lift stuff & then have screenshots of your whole metaphorical ass put out there for all to see.

Liliana has written extensively on the death penalty for a long time. So instead of looking like a fool, read her work. theintercept.com/staff/lilian...

What she said: Democratic politicians play a central role in upholding a system that enables horrific things What they heard: Biden killed more people than Trump

this makes me happy

jesus motherfucking christ you can’t atone for this. RFK is gleefully adding the grief of thousands of families across the ocean to our ledger and it will always be there. tiny souls.

Putting aside the fact that this is almost certainly bullshit, I am unclear on why they think this *helps* their argument that they are LEOs who should be allowed the unrestricted use of firearms with near-total immunity?

Ian’s a mutual aid fundraising rock star & never asks for anything for themself. If you can spare a bit to help them remember that mutual aid really is mutual and “we got us” isn’t just a slogan, that’d be awesome. 🖤

Few people know that at the time of his death in an Illinois sanitarium, Eugene V. Debs scrawled the final lines of Invictus followed by “No TERFs”

omfg YES we’re the baddies, please find a new meme, it’s not actually funny at this point

So hey, you don’t have to boost shit trying to start a race war. You can just say, we know men are most dangerous when they realize they may lose something they want to keep, and we’re not abt to watch that shit play out. Then reach out to yr friendly neighborhood mutual aid/community defense grp.

😯😍😭
