We choose mutual aid as a moral and political act - we are caring for our community and knowing we will be cared for in our turn. The state is going to abandon us but we do not have to abandon ourselves.

He is right this is 100% bs

Amazon sets the routes, the quotas, the uniforms, the cameras — and then tells workers they don't actually work for Amazon. Every delivery worker in this city should be able to afford to live here and have their rights respected. Workers deserve better.

The mutual aid group chat has a rule that no one can date anyone less supportive and interested in their lives than the chat and it has devastated the straight girl's dating pool

“Married women are happier.” Well, it’s not the fucking wedding ring, duh. Married men are happier, too! Why not scold men to stop sucking so much and be more marriageable? That is far more humane and actually addresses the problem.

this truly is the thing that makes the united states exceptional, and right wingers hate it so much they want to destroy it

US universities genuinely are like “welcome to Tennessee Agricultural College in Bumfuck Nowheresville. We invented the modern potato and our facilities include a particle accelerator, nuclear reactor, and TOP500 supercomputer. Tuition is $12,000 for instate students and we have 40,000 of them”

Yep looks like the old is still dying, no sign of the new getting any closer to being born last time I checked. Dig in lads, seems as if it's time for another morbid symptom.

Roman fans loved sports merch too! This 2,000-year-old Roman glass cup from Colchester is a chariot racing souvenir. A Latin inscription hails ‘Cresces’ the winner! 🏆 It also bids farewell to his three losing opponents, Hierax, Olympus, and Antiocus! 👋 👋 👋 📷 by me #EpigraphyTuesday #Archaeology

There is no political party willing to imagine a public education system oriented around equipping people & society with the freedom to think, rather than be a good worker - and for both Ds and Rs, these are mutually exclusive ends.

232 years ago, on the 7th of May 1794, Robespierre introduced the Cult of the Supreme Being as the new French state religion. It was a from of Deism and replaced the earlier atheist state religion, the Cult of Reason. Both religions were banned by Napoleon in 1802. #otd #history 🗃️

The 15yos laptop is not much longer for this world. I was hoping to wait for the fall but seems like it will not happen. Any recommendations for a solid laptop ~ $500?

While we're talking about lost Boston treasures, this just showed up at our auction house. I really want it, but I think it's going to hit a crazy amount of money. That and I have nowhere to hang it, unless I open another Rat.

Wait so if he didn't enjoin the president can he go do all the work himself?

The Trump admin tried to end-run an order blocking the East Wing ballroom's construction by invoking an exception permitting work on the project’s “safety and security” features. Judge Leon indignantly clarifies: “That is neither a reasonable nor a correct reading of my Order!” buff.ly/kWARaBf

who has a book coming out that people can preorder so they have something to look forward to and then be pleasantly surprised when the book just shows up on their doorstep

Preserving history is good. Trapping a city in amber and converting a thriving, evolving, innovative and dynamic place for millions of people to live into a museum for the rich is bad. It is an economic, cultural and social justice nightmare. (Hope you're taking notes, Rhode Island)

Since 1966, historic districts have steadily expanded to cover much of Lower Manhattan. As more areas are covered, new housing is effectively banned there, driving displacement and higher rents.

Is Gorsuch one of those people whose family says there a "Cherokee grandmother" in there somewhere? (Like, uh, the Warrens apparently did.)

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

…every so often, our cop characters are placed in a situation where they have to choose between being human or performing their role. and when they choose the former, you get a glimpse of what might be for them and for baltimore.
