早朝からヘリコプターが低空を飛んでいるな、うるさいな、と思っていたら、住んでいる部屋の上を飛んだ模様で、ローターの回転に合わせて建物が揺れました。こんなことは初めて。(ここは東京・中野)
改めて、日常的に軍用機が低空飛行する米軍基地周辺はいかばかりかと想像しました。

really tired of conversations about how we need to get people to spend more time offline that don't acknowledge that one of the reasons people ARE online is their access needs aren't being met in physical spaces. This is especially true for queer people and disabled people.
Senate war powers vote fails 52-48.
Funny how they always have just enough votes to stop these things!
never, ever, ever, ever accept "how will you pay for it?" as an argument against social programs.
One of the things we argue here is that the priority should be demanding "no war." Not "hold a vote" or "follow procedure." It's stop killing children at school, stop bombing apartments, stop a violent, rapidly expanding war of domination. Ridiculous this needs to be said but discourse is so rotten.
Some examples of inaccessibility:
1. Lack of Covid precautions in-person could lead immunocompromised people to stay home
2. People with mobility issues having problems getting to the place
3. Anyone with an energy limited condition trying to make it through an hours long even IRL is a challenge.
The first comic slide of “reasons to wear a mask 2026” depicts a person wearing a white mask who says “Hell yea!” Around them are bright pastel colors and cute but ominous looking SARS-CoV-2 viruses. Text reading “a lil manifesto about taking care of yourself and others- with over 50 citations! By Gillian Levine.”
This comic slide from “why you should wear a mask 2026” by Gillian Levine extends playful the Long COVID fest concept and depicts a hand holding a sheet from a music festival with facts about Long COVID facts and prevention, stating that everyone is vulnerable and that there is no cure, among other facts.
This comic slide from “why you should wear a mask 2026” by Gillian Levine shows ways to prevent COVID-19 and Long COVID, focusing on the importance of masking.
This comic slide from “why you should wear a mask 2026” by Gillian Levine playfully gives reasons of why to wear a mask using a Monopoly board. Each square represents a different reason to mask, from protecting yourself and others to protecting yourself from other airborne virus. Dice and game board pieces are scattered around.
Artist Gillian Levine recently wrote and illustrated a comic sharing reasons to continue masking in 2026. She kindly gave us permission to republish it.

I don't care if Congress authorizes War on Iran. NO WAR ON IRAN. I want people to fucking reclaim their morality.

it seems like part of what helps US wannabe labourism keep doing its stupid thing is never once thinking about actually existing labourism anywhere else in the world. once again imho everyone should read Elizabeth Humphry's excellent book: www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1360-h...
There's been discourse on Long Covid on this site the past few days. I think some people are thoroughly underestimating how hellish chronic illness can make you feel, even if you aren't at an immediate risk of dying.
no. the. fuck. its. not.
covid vaccines do not eliminate transmission. masking is a good way to protect yourselves and others, EVEN if you have been vaccinated.
anyone arguing otherwise is anti-science and should be mocked forever.
The reason you can’t give a single inch on anything be it trans rights or dignity for unhoused people is that they, democrats and republicans alike, will take it and say thanks what else is in your pockets? They won’t say thanks actually.
自民を選んでしまう市民が悪いというより政治のことを考える暇を与えない生活をさせてる政治や企業が悪いと思う
You notice how with elections liberals describe the left as simultaneously all-powerful and singularly decisive to the outcome, while also being pathetic idiots who don't understand the first thing about how the world actually works? That remind you of how anyone else describes another group of ppl?
戦争で一般市民が徴兵されるとして、その先に何が起こるかというと、その人たちが暴力を学習して帰ってくるということです。それは、戦後も一般社会に持ち帰られ、世代間で連鎖します。連鎖を頑張って止める人もいます。でもそれはとてつもなく力の要ることです。これは、地上戦から80年経っても米軍基地に占領されつづけている沖縄で今でも続いていることです。一度始まってしまった戦争は、長く続くのです。戦争を招き寄せる人たちは、私たちの人生に対して一切の責任を取りません。

IMAGE: a stylized cell phone with flames coming out of it. TEXT: Delete the Starbucks app off your phone. Seriously. Starbucks is the biggest violator of labor law in modern history. We have the power to tell them union-busting is bad for business. Don't shop at Starbucks until they do better by their baristas!
If Starbucks won’t respect workers at the bargaining table, they don’t deserve our clicks or orders.
Our call to action is simple:
📱 Delete the Starbucks app. #DeleteTheApp

Secretary Kristi Noem @Sec_Noem I just spoke with @RealTomHoman @ICEDirector @CBPCommissioner . Effective immediately we are deploying body cameras to every officer in the field in Minneapolis. As funding is available, the body camera program will be expanded nationwide. We will rapidly acquire and deploy body cameras to DHS law enforcement across the country. The most transparent administration in American history—thank you @POTUS Trump. Make America Safe Again 🇺🇸
Congrats to Hakeem Jeffries. He’s worked so hard for this victory.

Hoooooly shit. Epstein's private jet was previously owned by the CIA and was used to for extraordinary rendition to Guantanamo.
look, the apex predator power elites in charge of our world may be cartoonishly demonic monsters driven by the thrills of dominance cruelty lust and greed but at least the economic and political systems they administer are doing really well by the rest of humanity, so theres that
