If I’m killed in the streets, please do not call for peace. Burn it all down.
All. Of. It.
I would not want peace. If anyone claims I’d want peace, beat that mfer ass first.

This was a planned prayer action and they understand the potential risk. Please do not try and be a hero and step in, it undermines the work going into this. Especially when you don't have all the info about the action

Just a reminder that the pedophilia and csa you're casually dismissing as irrelevant to "the big picture"won't see your comment but CSA survivors will and I'll tell you it's been a brutal few years.

The AFL-CIO should start throwing some money towards labor journalism. If it was done right (i.e. with them accepting that journalists must have full editorial control over what’s published, whether or not union leaders like what they have to say) it could really have such a hugely positive impact

Immigration agents raid Allston car wash and detain several workers - The Boston Globe Many of them held legal status but were unable to immediately produce their documentation to the agents, according to their manager.

With all the excitement about the election I don’t want this story to get lost. This morning 8 car wash workers in Boston were kidnapped by federal agents in the largest workplace raid in the area in recent memory.

The details are horrifying.

How much hope is @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social giving everyone - I dreamt I met him at one of his canvasses and I was able to thank him for giving me and the world hope.

Get it NYC we are all rooting for you

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

For folks following along, I have a confirmed meeting Tuesday afternoon with Graham Platner. My goal is to find out who he is?

this is something that individual members of Congress could do tomorrow. The government is shut down so they could use their district offices. I suggested in January that they turn those offices into full on community centers where people could find each other re: mutual aid etc...

@govpritzker.illinois.gov owns every arrest and act of violence against protesters this morning. He is aiding and abetting Operation Midway Blitz by allowing state cops to do this. He tells us to film ICE. His cops have shoved me around for filming this morning.

I think what’s most frustrating right now for Black and Indigneous people is waiting for the bulk of white folks to catch up.

At some point the β€œthis isn’t who we are” and β€œI didn’t have this on my bingo card” has to end and y’all will catch up, right? RIGHT?

WE NEED YOU TO CATCH UP.

The flight "to Nice" but ending up with a ticket to Tunis makes me think of this gem from TikTok several years ago. The creator isn't on here but shes on Insta

God asked to make the dinosaurs meatier

This is why my favorite poem is "to be of use" by Marge Piercy

This is just one line

The people I love the best
jump into work head first
without dallying in the shallows
and swim off with sure strokes almost out of sight.

#boston Noon today Rep Lynch will at VA in West Roxbury. If you want to let him know how you feel about his support for deporting immigrants he doesn't hold public forums and the crowd here will be smaller than say his rallies in Quincy @jpprogressives.bsky.social @progressivemass.bsky.social

Who is doing counter-recruitment organizing for ICE? As the economy worsens, those jobs and the loan forgiveness offer will become more attractive to unpoliticized individuals. There needs to be a clear social cost for even considering joining those ranks.

I have a term for this:

Irritated vindication- situation where you are right or know you were going to be right about something, tried your best to tell people, and were ignored. When the thing happens, you are less happy about being right and more irritated that it had to come to that moment.

for folks wondering why people are mad at elected officials like Buttigeg and Moulton and Newsome throwing trans folks under the bus for political expediency
That poem every one applies to Democrats doing it as well
First they came for

If we don't demand better, both parties will devour us all

While I have everyone's attention, the genocide happening in Palestine -- in Gaza AND the West Bank -- is a crime against humanity.

Please raise your voice in defense of Palestinian lives. They are depending on us to remind those with power that they have a right to live.
