New Orleans needs to just stop trying to reclaim land and just resign itself to being flooded and become like Venice or Amsterdam.

This👇. It’s now been nearly seven months since Trump posted this. It hasn’t aged very well. We’re still at war with Iran. The Hormuz Strait is still effectively closed and, as a result, gas and grocery prices are continuing to rise.

This is the symbol of the Jewish Labor Bund: the universalist, socialist group my great-grandfather supported, the vision of which was always more liberatory than Zionism and which we need to recapture now as an alternative to this death cult timjacobwise.substack.com/p/breaking-f...

Under the global capitalist system, roughly 9 million people die every year from hunger, not because there is not enough food, but because it is not "profitable" to feed those people. By this measure alone, capitalism kills more people in ten years than Communism killed in the entire 20th century.

I remember in 1999, when people first encountered "Crackberries," and were making jokes about the emergence of "pervasive computing" as "invasive computing." Today, I watch my kids plug into TikTok and it's like watching Tank plug Neo into The Matrix. So, like, "ha-ha," I guess?

"'Civilizations,' as the historian Arnold J. Toynbee famously argued, 'die from suicide, not by murder.' They collapse from within...Our suicidal march began long before Donald Trump..." www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVQq...

“We’re going to have ICE surround the polls come November. We’re not going to sit here and allow you to steal the country again. And you can whine and cry and throw your toys out of the pram all you want, but we will never again allow an election to be stolen.” -- Steve Bannon

I'll say this about the Epstein Files: I thought there would be more clergy.

People angry over Alex Pretti's killing who are harping on about "video evidence" of murder need to keep in mind that the Rodney King verdict was announced on April 29, 1992. That's almost 34 years of the American justice system telling you that it doesn't care about "video evidence."

MAGAts complain about "globalists" and "foreigners" at the same time their Dear Leader is owned by a Ketamine-addled Nazi from South Africa.🤔

I hate when people use the word "decimated" when what they mean is "obliterated." To "decimate" something means "to reduce by 1/10th." The word was used to describe the Roman legions' collective punishment for cowardice where one out of every ten men in that offending unit would be executed.

The Dutch are a straightforward and direct people. When they say "eat the rich," they mean it.

Donald Trump's comment to Marjorie Taylor Greene, regarding the release of the Epstein files, was his "friends will get hurt.” However, Donald Trump has no friends. The only person that Donald Trump really cares about is Donald Trump. I wonder what's in the files that he doesn't want people to see?

Remember, remember, the 5th of November...

When people tell you who they are, believe them.

Between 1982 and 2011, public mass shootings in the US happened approximately once every 200 days. From 2011 to 2014, that frequency accelerated to one every 64 days. #daysoflead

"So many people here loathe him. We’re not divided. We’re not divided by religion, or race or political allegiance, we’re just here together because we hate him.” -- Amy White, 15, of Edinburgh on why she was protesting Donald Trump during his visit to Scotland.
