Love how my cat wouldn't touch his lil bed for months, now he's completely glued to the thing like it's his absolute favorite. Cats!

Yup, all these cities are pretty much known for not putting up with right-wing bullshit

I'm getting around 5 hours a night and that's bad enough, I'd be a fucking glop on 3 hours only

This sums up PDX too. This is our home, we love it, and we'll always fight back against anyone who tries to harm our community. It's in the DNA of the Pacific Northwest at this point. Funny how we have a rep for being passive-aggressive and lazy, but also militantly anarchistic and anti-fascist tho.

Not sure if it will involve OpenAI, but Nvidia is also going to be working with Intel on the same kind of shit :/

The US is super fickle, so with ICE currently the hot topic, I doubt anyone's noticed anything about Ukraine for the past 6 months or more. Media is barely touching on it too.

If I recall, they claimed it's to help people connect with other protesters, but it's probably just a way to add a shitload of people to fundraiser mailing lists

It'll always come down to money over people in the end

The American flag is also a fascist symbol

This article does a good job at showing ways to recognize coded imagery and language used by fascists if you don’t spend much time looking at it.

Ah yes, every young man has long, rolling discussions about exterminating millions of people, it's a rite of passage really, no big whoop

If you were involved last night, thank you. I've never felt safer on campus than I did when you walked in! It felt so affirming for someone to stand up against misogyny on a campus that blames rape vi...

ICE has been in middle school parking lots in Hillsboro and West Linn/Wilsonville just watching the community completely unchallenged.

Ditto at the immigration court downtown, and I'd put money on ICE having agents permanently stationed inside the Edith Green building where it's located.

This is why the ICE protests here are a little bit... not misguided, but maybe too narrow in scope. They're using it as only a pit stop, but have been sending people north for months, since the beginning.

Soavi really is one of the unsung heroes. Maybe not so flashy, definitely not consistent, but everything from Stage Fright up through Cemetery Man is super good.

Journalists, if you want to reach audiences who need to hear shit more than most, stop using words like 'risible' in your headlines and articles. You're not writing an essay for school and no one fucking talks like that.

That movie is shockingly good, especially considering the series after Elm Street 4 (I stand by that movie too, fuck everyone, it has nunchucks)

Seeing footage of ICE and Israel, then seeing people like @schumer.senate.gov and @aoc.bsky.social almost exclusively talk about the govt shutdown and party politics, as if nothing else was happening, certainly is an interesting contrast in the reality they live in vs. the reality we live in.

The love to argue that this never happened too, just to absolve themselves of history

Met with my psych and I scored a 145 on the RAADS-R he asked me to take. No clue how truly useful or accurate it is, but I’m also not sure how amped I am to find out whether I’m autistic or not, so I held off on a referral. Like I already know I clearly have a lot of problems existing?

Antifa is a short-hand for Antifascist Action, pulled from the original group in the 1930s, not short-hand for anti-fascist. Note the lack of the dash too. I literally made a post about this a day or two ago. It is explicitly about militant resistance.
