People will cling to the familiar even if it is killing them. If one doesn't understand this basic fact, then you will be so confounded on multiple levels.

Genuinely delighted to download a PhD thesis from a university repository where the author has neglected to remove the words "BITCH THIS IS YOUR THESIS" from the filename.

Too Good To Go is a great app for local grub on the cheap. We got 3 baker’s dozen of fresh bagels for $10
With SNAP/EBT cuts looming I highly recommend downloading this app! Basically restaurants and other food businesses will have available bags of random food they don’t wanna waste for ppl to buy for hella cheap! This has saved me sooooo many times when I only have $5 and need some food.

The secret power of a people’s movement is that it’s random.
It’s neighbors protecting immigrants from ICE. It’s millions canceling Disney+. It’s a man throwing a sandwich. It’s inflatable frogs dancing.
Dictators struggle to fight a movement, because they can’t do what they want most—control us.

Art is subjective! Racism isn't!
It's 2025, and we still have not yet learned to listen to Black women.

Jack Smith didn't "tap" anyone's phone. He got phone records of potential insurrection suspects via lawful grand jury subpoenas. Just so happens some of those suspected of participating in January 6th were republican members of congress. If you don't want you phone records subpoenaed...

The new week is upon us.
We are 174 days into this presidency.
We are 12% of the way in.
We have survived some of the most absurd, ill conceived, criminal, & inhumane acts of any Presidential administration in US history.
We have stood firm.
We have no king.

What we are living through is the PEAK of "drained pool politics"
Drained pool politics is the termination or defunding of public resources due to the will of one group, whether they also use the resource or not.
Think the end of public pools nationwide b/c white people refused to integrate

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore.
Make it make sense.

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.

Meet one of our residents of the day: Jessica. Jessica is a Flemish Giant rabbit, who came to us from NYC after being rescued from becoming a meat rabbit. She has wounds on her legs from previously living in a small space, but we keep a close eye on them and make sure she has access to vetcare.
