I endorse this message.

Listen to Jim!!

He's a dangerous shitstain and this admin has been foaming at the mouth to strip Natives of any value we have left & turn our land back into prisons. Mullin is their way in.

That said, if he suddenly grew a pair & stood up for Indigenous values he'd have a chance to do the funniest thing right now.

Life is a Sacred Text Truth, transformation, & collective liberation; ancient stories serve as mirrors & lights.

a reminder that all Christians should subscribe to my newsletter (ii mean everyone else too)

please protect yourself. ♥️

Staying informed matters but it’s ok if all you know is “the president is a rapist and he’s bombing Iran for no good reason”.

You don’t need to know the details beyond that to be appropriately angry or to take appropriate action about that anger.

uh yes

you don't have to read graphic descriptions of SA even if the rapist is running the country right now

you don't have to read or watch graphic depictions of bombing innocents even if it's happening right now

you can be angry about and take action against wrongs without exposing yourself to trauma

Just a reminder to men writing about anything that they should read lots of women

just a reminder to white people writing about anything that they should read lots of Black and Brown people

just a reminder to cis people writing about anything that they should read lots of trans people

just a r

on this the world endures sources on making war and peace

As bombs drop,

it's illuminating, sometimes, to look at sacred text from people who lived through millennia of warmaking,

through

occupations, uprisings and slaughters from Assyria, Babylonia & Rome;

the Almohad conquest of Almoravid Córdoba;

WWI & WWII; the Qibya massacre;

& much more:

I don't know WHO could possibly have written such a thing

awww I was cute a thousand years ago

goodreads is using what I have been referring to mentally as the Black and White Cookie font, which means it's officially over

no more websites that look like 70s deli menus I guess

fucking NO

I know this intellectually but I refuse to hold by it (see, rational and reasonable).

I think the ICC should just show up at 1600 Penn Ave and perp walk the mf

ouwchhhh

In 2024 the GOP dropped most of the pro-life language in its platform

ostensibly bc a national abortion ban would have lost them women voters,

but possibly because they wanted to more fully embrace their true identity as murderous genocidal atrocity machines?

HAGUE
NOW

I love all these stories.

Awwww it makes me happy to know that there's a virtual rocking chair on a virtual porch somewhere that remembers a lot of ridiculous capers from #ohdeargod years ago

See, this is the shit I'm here for.

Oh that was a perfect burn. I'm a fan

(and started to write "don't fuck with Xers" before realizing, to my horror, that this person almost certainly wasn't an Xer if they were in school when FB began)

OK this one anecdote disproves all cases everywhere!

Donald Trump’s Antisemitic Record Donald Trump and his administration have a long history of antisemitism. Read more on his record here:

bless your heart

a) Shoutout to @emersonrp438.bsky.social's MOO for making my cubicle job bearable in 1997

b) "just for being on it" to like, engage, talk to people & enjoy things instead of trying to build clout and become an INFLUENCER like me, bro

I don't believe in bullying *anyone*, but if I had carve-outs..

(that's to all the other ruttenbergs out there who think I will know if we're related or not.) Hi.

& if I didn't grow up seeing you at my grandparents' house at Rosh Hashana or Pesach or hearing my grandfather gossip about you, then I just assume we last saw each other hauling what we could carry out of that dump in 1520 before getting (respectively) knocked around the Pale for a few centuries.

oh for fucks's sake ("Gertner")

siri can you explain to the nice people why some Jewish last names sound German

(I'm walking around with the name of the town my ancestors were kicked out of in 1520, for example.)

It's #WorldBookDay so I'll just share that I'm currently reading ON REPENTANCE AND REPAIR by @theradr.bsky.social. I've had the book for years, and something told me this was the time to read it already.

I hope it resonates!
