in order to be an environmentalist, you have to be anti-imperialist, anti-zionist, and anti-capitalist. anything else is just cosplay.

πŸ“£ Big news! The journalists of the Anchorage Daily News have ratified our first contract. The agreement between the owners and management and 17 newsroom employees is the first union contract held by an Alaska newsroom. It will remain in effect through Feb. 2028.

my hometown community center had a teen zone with pool, books, bean bags, games, etc. totally free
im still trying to figure out what the mythical β€œthird space for teens” is that was apparently 100% free, abundantly entertaining, provided food/snacks and wasn’t educational. people keep talking about this place like it existed but never can give an example of what it was 😭

the private equity buyout of ski resorts brought about the wrath of god
Winter 2025/2026 will go down as the warmest winter in recorded history for the Western United States.

They murder CHILDREN. How the FUCK does anyone still believe the lie that the US/Israel care about peace when they murder and maim children in Iran, Palestine, Lebanon… everywhere the imperialist war machine sets its sights on. Sickening greed and never ending violence
Replying to @AJEnglish

no amount of appeasement to the right will ever get them to stop persecuting marginalized people. fuck whatever a poll says. protect trans people
The trans rights backlash is extremely real and very worrying for progressives. The public is aligned with conservatives on several issues like sports, restrooms, and minors' access to care. It's possibly the worst issue for progressives I've ever polled. theargumentmag.com/p/the-tra…

So glad we kicked these evil bastards out of Denver.
We have moved our headquarters to Miami, Florida.

Want to stand with the baristas fighting for a better future at the world's largest coffee company? It's easy: Stop buying Starbucks and delete the app. ✊
Starbucks has scrapped a $250,000 limit on its CEO's use of the company jet for personal travel. CEO Brian Niccol uses the jet to commute from his house California to corporate HQ in Seattle. The company is lifting the cap while refusing thousands of baristas a union contract.

Nothing to see here, just Doctors Without Borders saying Gaza is a mass grave and Israel is systematically destroying Palestinian life. In other words, GENOCIDE.
Gaza has become a β€œmass grave” for Palestinians and those helping them. Israeli forces are systematically destroying Palestinian life and showing a blatant disregard for the safety of humanitarian and medical workers: msf.org/gaza-has-become-mass…

Thinking there is still a way to put the MAGA right in checkmate via pointing out their own hypocrisy or, sillier still, attempting to hold them to their professed values, requires a level of naivete which should render someone unqualified to comment on politics.
Is MAGA going to just be perfectly fine if Trump disobeys the SCOTUS and leaves Abrego-Garcia in El Salvador to die? Are they OK with King Trump and no Constitution?

Every day, I'm more proud of @iz_aries than the day before. I keep thinking we've hit the ceiling, but nope. You're the best of us, pal. And @GrimKim is obviously great too -- you should read her book.

Concentration camps are being opened. And conservatives say β€œYou think those are concentration camps? Ridiculous.” This is how they will greet every new horror. Don’t fall for it. Their willingness to downplay evil does not make it less evil. It just tells you who they are.
