Maher is an Islamophobe of the highest order. The fact that he has not been run out of town is a measure of how unseriously Islamophobia is treated in this country.

100,000 Homes: Housing the homeless saves money? Giving apartments to the chronically homeless can save taxpayer dollars, advocates say

Anderson Cooper: β€œSo it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?”

Answer: β€œYes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing.” #HousingFirst #UrbanTruth

I think Mills is too old and also I would support a literal corpse against a Nazi.

Donate to Urgent Support Needed to Prevent Homelessness, organized by Allen Marshall I have been out of work since October. I have exhausted my savings and re… Allen Marshall needs your support for Urgent Support Needed to Prevent Homelessness

I've been out of work since the end of October. I'm due to start a job soon, but even with that, I am close to losing my car and my home. If you can spare anything at all, I would appreciate it. #mutualaid #pleasehelp

They are literally rounding up immigrants right now. The police state that makes this possible was built on abusing and incarcerating Black, Indigenous and Mexican people. All of us are on the list, all of us are in danger, just different places on the white supremacy hitlist

if you’re cis and you don’t get it this is LITERAL TORTURE

it will result in dead trans people

and with their other goal of making us β€œsexually explicit” for existing

you see the pipeline right?

we exist -> we’re jailed for it -> we’re tortured and die

WE NEED YOU TO STOP THIS

The Chicago real estate firm leasing an empty prison to ICE Highlands Real Estate Investment Trust looks to profit from President Trump's anti-immigrant agenda.

icymi: a small chicago real estate firm with two properties in evanston also owns a private prison in coloradoβ€”and it’s renting that prison to ice.

my look at highlands reit and flood of cash flowing to money-hungry capitalists that’s fueling the rise of fascism:

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

It might help to know that TB is basically endemic in shelters, incarcerated spaces, and hospitals.

So much so that I decided if I didn't get TB whilst working at Harborview I am clearly lucky and indestructable.

The Handbasket 100% independent journalism by Marisa Kabas

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media.

Off the top of my head:

Add your favorites in the replies. Fuck state-backed media monopolies.

I've had several tech hiring managers and recruiters ask me what I'm doing with AI, and my work history is specialized technical support. AI wouldn't really help me beyond a couple of automated searches for CVEs.

Stop pre-negotiating. Stop telling voters they have to sacrifice minorities and the marginalized to have a chance of winning. Stop telling voters to settle, to not ask for everything, to be reasonable. Don't be reasonable. Demand the world. The world belongs to us. They don't have more right to it.

One of the most painful things in recent months has been speaking with friends who rolled their eyes at these warnings and are now fully terrified for themselves and their kids. No-one wanted those warnings to be true, I get it. But ignoring them altogether, for years?…
We could have stopped this.

Still not clear if I am starting the job on the 9th as promised. I’ve had 4 companies tell me they’re hiring me only to ghost me. Seriously thinking about GFM I am so far behind in bills.
