I genuinely don’t understand how we are supposed to casually process that a glacier literally collapsed in Nepal, erasing 19 bridges and killing over 600 people, because the planet is too hot. And instead of stopping it, billionaires are building more data centres. Psychotic!

Italian news has begun to call ICE "Trump's squadristi".

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Genuinely concerned with how they’re using this dudes passing to instill more control. We have absolutely evil people in power right now and I’m just tired man. Why is it suddenly “radical” to care about other human beings? Why is it bad to want people to have the same rights?!
When I am terrified of having to go the ER due to how expensive it might be for me AFTER insurance but a chunk of my paycheck gets taken out so Israel can have Universal Healthcare while they’re actively committing a genocide and invading countries.
