Saw a meme going around with a screenshot of a woman posting, “Where can a Christian get their nails done without having to be surrounded by other statues and Buddha? I am done paying women who have nothing in common with me spiritually, big bucks to do my nails.”

Ma’am, if you don’t think you have anything in common with Buddhists, you sure as fuck don’t have anything in common with Christ. 🙄

I'm gifting this article on what Trump and his allies have planned if he wins again because it's absolutely terrifying and everyone should read it. Please share with everyone you know.

Even the people who were previously part of his cabinet have reason to worry, not to mention everyone in the DOJ, FBI or any state prosecutors.

The GOP has introduced a bill to EXPEL Palestinians from the United States. I cannot read such things without remembering what happened to my own family after Pearl Harbor. After we and 120,000 other Japanese Americans were incarcerated in prison camps for years, without charge or trial, my own mother was very nearly expelled to Japan because of racial prejudice and hatred. Only the brave actions of a civil rights attorney saved her from being sent away. #NeverAgain

If this man is reelected, he will pardon all the January 6 defendants and criminals. And where is the outrage from the right over the “altered” national anthem? This is straight out of dystopian novel.

“[W]hat I’m seeing unfolding at the moment isn’t just self-defence. It looks, it resembles something more approaching revenge. I don’t think that’s how Israel will guarantee its future freedom and its future security.”

I always love when Americans start getting into why Fahrenheit is superior. They’re like it just makes more sense for weather. Yeah, if you’re American. The rest of the world is gonna be like 70? Am I dead?

Also, it makes sense.. if you know Fahrenheit!

Update: The video has been restored thanks to interventions from allies.

We just had a video removed immediately upon publication on Instagram. The platform claimed it contained "praise or support" of "people and organizations we define as dangerous." The video did nothing of the sort.

It was a video report - from our journalists – about increased arrests in the occupied West Bank.

We demand this decision be reversed immediately.

It has been just over one year since Elon Musk walked into the Twitter lobby on October 21, 2022 carrying a bathroom sink and proceeded to transform the platform into a bastion for fascist influence. That transformation is now complete and yet 90% or more of mainstream journalism remains on the platform, their influence muzzled by algorithmic demotion and the fear of even further marginalization. A crucial election approaches. We are out of time.

Gun nuts get very upset when you mislabel an AR-15 as an assault rifle. So to avoid any controversy, please refer to the weapon using its proper technical classification, which is a mass murder rifle.

Today in Labor History October 26, 1892: Ida B. Wells published “Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in All Its Phases,” which led to threats against her life, and the burning down of her newspaper’s headquarters in Memphis. Wells, who was born into slavery, was a journalist, educator, feminist, and early Civil Rights leader who helped found the NAACP.
