For 17 years I have relied on SNAP benefits. I'm on Social Security Disability, Medicare, Medicaid & live w/chronic illness & disabilities, 2x cancer survivor & Lupus. SNAP is ESSENTIAL for my nutrition. Me & 42M are experiencing a President who does NOT care if 1/8 of ALL Americans STARVE to death!

Fascism is a cult.

Cults always end the same way.
The inescapable power of nostalgia compels me to actually enjoy some Our Lady Peace songs now, but for the first twenty years of their existence they seemed to be a scourge that haunted me from every radio station, every rock festival in Ontario.

yes yes yes to all of this. material politics is the way forward and that doesn’t mean slogans it means the very difficult work of being a real presence in the lives of the people who you want to trust you.
It doesn’t matter what I think. Also, none of this would ever happen. But if I had a zillion dollars:

1. Run a “we do hard things” campaign across southern and rust belt states. Invest heavily in local, state and regional social infrastructure. Sponser later hours at a library, build a skate park…
If I were to sum up my advice to the Democratic party leadership about how to defeat Trumpism, it would be to set aside policy for now and focus instead on articulating a vision of what American society should look like and what role the US should play in a rapidly changing world today.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
Lol, went throught the exact same thing today!

America’s still terrified of powerful women in politics.

It’s pure misogyny baked into the system. Add race to the mix and it’s on a whole different level of hate that most won’t even admit. Time to get over that shit!

Let’s take a step forward on Tuesday.

This is my SNAP Balance here in NYC on 11/2/25 shown as $0. A 1st since I became eligible for SNAP benefits in 2008. Scary times for me and 42M. 🙏

I think republicans who got into interracial marriages before right-wing culture decided that was race treason are just gonna be overcompensating for that a lot in general

It’s Mecca for the kind of person who moves out of a blue state because it’s “too woke.”
Can someone in Texas help me understand why so many Texans suck so much asshole?

Yeah. It's actually that while women have broken free of the patriarchal framework, men are still being raised expecting to conform to it.

Jeezus, US! You could have had this amazing, wise, experienced, and yes - MIXED-RACE WOMAN - leading your country to prosperity. But by placing an inexperienced, fraudulent NUT JOB into the Oval, due to a fear of women & dark skin, you totally fucked yourselves over! (Talking to YOU, MAGAt fools!)

And here’s the famous “the Rabbis hated entitled incels” passage.

Ht to @kwstzhaderbonch.bsky.social for reminding me of it before I’ve had coffee.

Perhaps they could try not being completely misogynistic assholes who women try desperately to avoid.

Ok! Educate those young men abt affirmative consent & safer sex. Make abortion & contraception free & available everywhere. Enforce sexual assault laws actually. Create media that cultivates sex positive respect & care for everyone. Get ppl who don’t suck in office.

Culture change is possible!!
I am not in any way disagreeing with you Rabbi. However with the huge number of sexless young men 18-30 is creating a social hazard.

We need to get gender relationships fixed or we'll suffer from a lot of troubles later on.

i love how the rest of society is expected to change to accommodate young men's supposed needs for intimacy, but it never occurs to anyone to say the young men need to change
It's insane that culture creates expectations for young cis straight men that an ideal mate should be okay with being sexually objectified while also being their mom & placing their husband's needs over their own; then when these men can't find a partner it's the womens' fault for wanting autonomy.
