“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

It is especially rare to have not just one Thelemite represented on a panel, but two! I had the joy of being part of this. It was such a thoughtful conversation. I’m excited for people to watch this. Many thanks to @TheWitchOfWonderlust for making this happen. #occult

I'm just saying that if I'm supposed to love the United States, the United States should try earning that love.
And instead of loving this country, try loving the people who are in it.

I really appreciate that @pbsnews.org ended the interview with this graphic.
It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.

Tonight, I chatted with Protestants and Catholics, Jews and Bahá’ís, the spiritual but not religious and me, the Pagan witch, about non-human animals. The ones that taught us something about ourselves. The ones that taught us something about others. Truly an epic way to spend a Monday evening!

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

I think what is most flabbergasting about all of this is voters just overwhelming gave the Democratic Party a perfectly clear signal that they will be heavily rewarded for fighting.

This is incredibly important:
we must frame tonight as a resounding victory — an electoral landslide, a mandate from the universe itself
and as a repudiation of MAGA, of Trump, and of vichy democrats
we must be relentless, we must not shut up

For DC folks looking for help with food insecurity or to help neighbors experiencing food insecurity or needing other essential resources, this org is fantastic.
As SNAP and potentially WIC is halted and decimated, this will become even more of an issue.
