If you believe Ayanna Pressley should be the next Speaker of the House, sign below!

Ayanna is an incredible leader. She was part of the 2018 election where I had the honor to meet her. She would be incredibly effective in this role.

Hasan Piker names Ayanna Pressley as a better option than Hakeem Jeffries for Speaker of the House

"Who would be a congressperson who truly deserves to be the first black Speaker of the House? That's not even a question, Ayanna Pressley"

Dilemma is such a common word but all our other lemmas get no love 😔

I don’t know. It feels obscenely stupid to start posting videos of my loved ones in Gaza right now, as their tents flood with rainwater in the middle of the night, as they sleep in damp clothes on soaked mattresses, and to think for a f*cking second that these images might move someone to save their babies, to protect what little dignity they have left.

As if this time could be any different from last year, or the year before that, or the year before that.

As if people around the world, especially those with the power to do something, might suddenly be moved by a family’s tent flooding with rainwater when the sight of hundreds of babies whose bodies were shredded by Israeli bombs was not enough to put an end to this.

How many more times must we expose the suffering of the people we love, strip them of their privacy in their most vulnerable moments, in the desperate hope that someone, somewhere, might finally care enough to act?

For anyone who cares, this is a picture of Gaza now.

We are drowning in our tents💔

The "value" of nuclear weapons is the way they're used as persistent psychological warfare by the ruling class against the world's population. "Are they really mad enough to kill us all this time?"

[lelu @lelulolololol]

"the vulnerable will fall by the wayside" (Fauci) & "these are people who were unwell to begin with, and yes really encouraging news" (Walensky) are both quotes from the Biden admin - the eugenicist weaponization of public health amid the ongoing pandemic is a bipartisan project

Cambridge, MA city council just passed a policy order 5-4 to divest the city pension funds of (at least) the following:

Israeli bonds
Lockheed Martin
Palantir
Elbit Systems
GE Aerospace
Boeing

Could not have done it without @Cambridge_DSA and Cambridge for Palestine. 🌹🍉

As Anthropic prepares to IPO for over $1 trillion, a reminder of Dario Amodei’s words shortly after founding the company:

“Distributed human labor is being used to train AI models by large, centralized actors, who concentrate the resulting profits while in the long run making the human labor obsolete.”

In other words, this IPO will be built off the backs of the world’s creatives - who will get nothing out of it except obsolescence.

It is a totally unjust transfer of wealth and opportunity from artists, writers, musicians & other creatives to a tiny tech elite.

I hope it is remembered as such.

(this quote is from a document he wrote that was unsealed in Bartz v. Anthropic)

There is something really concerning (and disappointing) going on in the US right now.
A dangerous and preventable situation.
Let me explain.

En France, des livreurs Uber Eats s’organisent pour refuser collectivement les courses les moins rémunérées, en utilisant plusieurs téléphones.

Une stratégie qui pousse l’algorithme à augmenter les tarifs jusqu’à atteindre 15 € ou plus par livraison. 😳 https://t.co/s7Ewbne9Ct
