Dammit. Immigrants ARE “American workers.” Don’t let white nationalists foment discord /deepen racism by dog-whistle comments contrasting “American” workers to immigrant workers.

The feds are gonna call you a terrorist, antifa, anarchist, etc for engaging in jail support, mutual aid, or just setting up a support network to ensure that vulnerable neighbors are alright. They're gonna call you a radical, communist, etc for organizing your workplace. Get over that. Don't let it be a reason to not get involved.

during this press conference it was said that all 15 of the defenders were conspiring to "injure" ICE agents. no ICE agents have been injured by anyone involved, as per the DA himself. a journalist in the crowd rightly noted that they were arrested for thought crimes.

A small public service announcement from the Department of Things That You Should Know… It has not “peeked” your interest. Nor has it “peaked” your interest. …It has piqued your interest. You are not “phased” by something. You are fazed by it. If you’ve had a long day, you are weary. If you suspect someone is an idiot, you are wary. It is “due course”, not “do course”. “Per se”, not “per say”. And while we’re here, it’s “could have”, not “could of”, but that particular battle may already be lost. Thank you for your attention during this brief outbreak of grammatical housekeeping. This has been a @LairdofthManor announcement.🎩💙

one of the primary things that police officers do is shout loudly at you. it's said that they sometimes give conflicting orders simultaneously & purposefully; if you are in a moving car, they will step in front of the car to justify shooting into it. I have little patience for people who post smugly on Twitter "insist upon your constitutional rights" who have no idea how aggressive officers can be if they target you. ICE is just the most visible manifestation of this aggression. expecting anyone but particularly women, Black citizens & persons of color to stand up to such an onslaught is absurd.

I’m constantly astonished that billionaires would rather ignore the climate crisis and prepare to live in a bunker with dvds and baked beans than devote a modicum of their bottomless wealth to saving the planet where we have fresh fruit and soft grass and blue skies.

Solidarity with all anti-ICE protesters.

This is shameful considering how hard Native Americans had to work for religious freedoms after many decades of repression!

In this photo there is a Princeton University graduate and a Harvard Law School graduate. Michelle Obama is both.

ILWU Local 6 is on strike (Day 1) at the C&H Suger Factory in Martinez. They are asking for support for their picket line. The ILWU has been supportive of the Palestine solidarity movement for a long time.

Here’s a weird fact: in San Francisco the homeless population has a higher percentage of people born and raised in S.F. than the general population.

Spraying roundup on weeds in the cracks of your driveway is kind of silly. Boiling water will do the same job better. Pour it straight onto the weed and down into the crack. The heat ruptures the plant on contact and it wilts within the day. A stubborn deep-rooted one might need a second pour, but that's the whole method. Roundup's own label tells you to keep it out of storm drains. And a driveway is basically a funnel straight into one. Every rain carries whatever you sprayed down the gutter and, in most towns, straight into the nearest creek with nothing in between. Boiling water kills the weed and stops at the weed.

This month, in multiple settings, including the AFL-CIO convention, Minnesota's labor movement has been honored and given awards for standing up to ICE. Now MN trade unionists are among those being targeted by the federal govt in sweeping indictments. workdaymagazine.org/minnesot…

when you understand that under capitalism a forest has no value until it's cut down, you begin to understand the root of our ecological crises.

Exciting news: I just learned @boltsmag has won a Nonprofit News Award tonight! The award is for the powerful (& distressing) story reported by @alex_burness on the zealous prosecution of a community of American Samoans by Alaska — you may remember it: boltsmag.org/prosecuted-for-…

Scott Wiener criminalized nudity in SF. He was on a crusade to transform the Castro into an upscale condo and tourist destination, and the naked people were a little too ... queer for him. They were a relic of the hippie and Harvey Milk era.
