😈 I had forgotten about this. Horrifying to repeatedly realize how evil, evil, evil this pr*ck really is.

Oh my god that’s so true! Such an evil pr*ck.

I really hope so @jamellebouie.net. Would be a refreshing change of pace and FU to #Mamdani detractors

jamelle @jamellebouie.net · 18h

we’ll see how his mayoral tenure shakes out but i am convinced that Mamdani has the juice. not just the charisma to win an election but the temperament to govern and the measured pragmatism of someone who genuinely believes what they’re saying and wants to accomplish real things.

Follow this thread for more background on ‘that dude running for #USSenate in #Maine’ Pay attention people! #Mainers vote #JanetMills she knows how to stand up for #democracy 🌹

the same people who warned you about john fetterman are warning you about that dude in Maine. if you want to get duped into another fetterman, by all means continue attacking Janet Mills.

if you'd like a reliable vote for democracy, democratic values, and Mainers, go with a proven track record.

Let’s turn out in force! I’m in Costa Rica and will be protesting in San Jose on Oct. 18. It’s a worldwide protest against tyrants and #NoKings in #America. @newrepublic.com @gregsargent.bsky.social @sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com

Dr. Samantha Hancox-Li @sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com · 20h

one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump

As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

ICE is shooting and murdering people. With real bullets. From real guns. If you think they only use rubber bullets or paintballs, no—they are using real guns with real bullets #DefundICE #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

Yikes… reading is crucial, fun and informative. I love hosting a book club with a good friend. It’s online and so fulfilling. It’s called Regenerative Reads for those interested in groundbreaking ideas and inspiring stories that make a difference in the natural world. 😍

Reading for pleasure has fallen by 40 percent since 2000. This is not progress. You should read because it's good for your brain, your soul. You should read because our freedoms will not long endure in a post-literate world. Most of all, you should read because it's fun.
