Yesterday was powerful gathering against Apple exploitation and complicity in genocides in Congo & Palestine

I was arrested & facing bogus charges

Vancouver increased its police budget by 40% (!) over past three yrs. Effects are felt daily by targeted communities plus ⬆️ criminalization of dissent
My friend @harshawalia.bsky.social was arrested and charged, and another protester was brutalized today in Vancouver at a protest targeting Apple for profiting from death and exploitation in its supply chain. The protesters also called out Apple's support of Friends of the IDF.

Nora has been one of our most consistent supporters!

This is a great opportunity to get a lovely holiday gift, support a queer artist, and help the trans community. 🥰
HELLO IT'S BLACK FRIDAY

Instead of a sale this year I'm giving 10% of Black Friday weekend sales to @distributeaid.org for their harm reduction toolkits that provide safe injection supplies to trans people taking hormones.

When you remember CCM exists because white evangelicals and Pentecostals “had to” separate from Black Pentecostalism, this mess makes perfect sense. 😑
I listened to Solomon Ray’s “Find Your Rest.” It’s mid.

It sounds exactly like somebody prompted a computer with the words “Sinners,” “stomp,” “clap,” and “hey.”

The lyrics are such boilerplate faux-gospel that I’m admittedly surprised it quotes even ONE Bible verse.

big late breaking news: the market monitor for the largest energy grid in the u.s., covering much of the midwest and mid-atlantic, has called to block new data centers connections to the grid, saying current course of growth assures regular blackouts
No more PJM data centers unless they can be reliably served: market monitor
The PJM Interconnection’s market monitor urged the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to rule that large data centers can only come online if the grid operator can still meet reliability metrics.

After USAID got cut, I asked GiveWell if @planetmoney.bsky.social could ride along as they tried to figure out if and how to jump into the void. They said yes. They recorded weeks and weeks of deliberations. Here is the episode about it: www.npr.org/2025/11/26/n...

Goodwin's palpable disgust for black and brown people is, of course, a colonial inheritance. But the "national" prosperity that made Britain's welfare state possible is in no small part a colonial inheritance too, plundered from places like Africa and south Asia. He might show a little gratitude.

Looking for a Thanksgiving miracle
In October I got notice to move very last minute, made a mutual aid post and it didn't meet the goal. But the need didn't go away. The goal is 517/1000 reposts appreciated. Thanks to everyone boosting and helping so far 🙏🏿

Land acknowledgments are a start, but solidarity without material support is hollow. As a by-and-for funder, we resource rematriation & Indigenous self-determination. This includes answering the call for settlers to pay rent to the Native peoples whose land we live on.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.
