This is so sad. I almost feel bad blocking them. Almost.

[McJulie, dissociating @mcjulie]

Part of the right wing fetish is that it’s no fun for them unless they can FORCE the rest of us to read their nonsense hate-filled drivel, so that’s what muskrat has done, jiggered the algorithm to try to force their content into our eyeballs

🧵today in Akron Ohio, one week before grand jury begins for the murder of Jayland Walker by 8 APD killers still on duty.
City Hall is boarding 🪟
concrete barriers placed strategically downtown like last summer. some offices moved to Summit Lake. APD vehicles @ Water Dept again

Fuck off with this inane bullshit. I swear New Music is constantly and deeply desperate to ignore its class problem.

THREAD. Many progressives are not paying enough attention to what is happening with Cop City in Atlanta. The level of state violence against local people organizing to protect an essential forest from becoming a training center for militarized cops is escalating.

I remember when Chernobyl aired on HBO and at least one critic I read on it was like "It illuminates the uniquely Soviet failures in leadership/honesty/communication in favor of maintaining a front that suggests everything's fine" lol lmao

[☭ @sleepisocialist]

i feel like it should be mainstream news that a cop shot another cop, used that to murder an indigenous forest defender who was dedicated to non-violence, then lied to the press to paint them as a violent aggresor. their name was Tortuguita. cops shot them 13 times. #StopCopCity

Nick Fuentes, the Nazi unbanned by Elon Musk today, was doing a huge Twitter Space with thousands of listeners. I joined and he was in the middle of talking about… well, exactly what you’d expect.

Dude was released on $250 million bail which neither he nor his parents are able to secure. But a poor man will languish in jail unable to secure $2500 bail. Explain.

[Daniel Lewis @dtlewismusic]

You know what Beethoven had? Money. Beatles? Money. Pop stars? Money. Ensemble Dal Niente? Money. Everyone we venerate is backed up by $$. For better or worse, don’t care, capitalism is the air we breathe. Spare a thought for music that *repels* money.

[Daniel Lewis @dtlewismusic]

You know what the best music is? Your friend’s deliberately Weird live show on a Tue w an audience of 5 where they barely make $6. The thing you “Interested” on FB but didn’t go. Music not trying to make $$ or get clout. Vital, raw, personal, it’ll rock your shit every time.

@AOC I work 6 days a week, 311 days a year. If I work into my off day when I get up, I may be lucky to have 14 hours to myself. I come home at all hours of the day or night and sometimes have to eat in the dark, so I don’t wake my family. Railroaders just want a better quality of life

Press Release from RWU:

“Joe Biden blew it. He had the opportunity to prove his labor-friendly pedigree to millions of workers by simply asking Congress for legislation to end the threat of a national strike on terms more favorable to workers.”

The one who saved my life and stomped the shooter’s face in was not a drag queen, she is a trans woman. Let’s not call trans women drag queens during this time of grieving over a transphobic attack.

[Erin Reed @erininthemorning.com on Bsky @ErinInTheMorn]

At this point Chaya Raichik (the person who runs Libs of TikTok) is openly gloating about instigating LGBTQ+ violence in the wake of the Colorado Springs mass shooting.

She lists herself as a "Stochastic terrorist" in her bio.

She isn't denying her role when confronted.
