As Jabba the Hutt's son I'm often gatekept from progressive spaces due to preconceived notions about my family. At the same time, I acknowledge the reasonable concerns my presence would raise, and I'm working every day to unlearn the harmful attitudes instilled in me on my father's pleasure barge.
With every day presenting more news lapping the grimmest satire, its time to embrace the rhetorical presumption that every part of the Trump project is part of a cloud of criminal enterprises, no matter how much a particular part of it gets to wear costumes at work.
What I witnessed at the Mesa Gateway ICE holding facility was unacceptable.
Detainees crammed into cells that were overcrowded at double the capacity. Sick people denied medical care. Women begging for sanitary napkins.
The inhumanity is beyond the pale. Abolish ICE.
Just got let go from my corporate job of almost 9 years. Anyone looking for a beekeeping graphic designer who rescues animals, loves books, is way into Dateline, and sings like a Disney princess? hmu 🤙
A judge ruled that groups representing residents of Louisiana’s Cancer Alley can proceed with their landmark lawsuit seeking a pause on toxic industrial plants in two majority‑Black districts
"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

I’m encouraging Dems to swing for the fences on this.
Since they’re going to have to rebuild American democracy anyway, they might as well do some great things.
With all the divisiveness in politics today I thought it would be nice to launch a new website that affirms something we can all agree on: a staggering number of Republicans are pedophiles. pedoconservatives.com
Joe Rogan might call this a brutal KO, if it wasn't him getting knocked the F out.
A supremely delightful takedown by @climatetown.bsky.social of Rogan's confident, ignorant, and dangerous climate denial.
Auto parts cross the Canada-U.S. border six times on average before final assembly. In a trade crisis, that’s a vulnerability for our workers.
It’s time to build up that supply chain right here in Canada.
Donald Trump signed an executive order that illegally cancelled union contracts for 67% of the federal workforce and affects over 1,000,000 federal employees.
This is the single biggest attack on the labor movement in American history.
The Trump administration believes employees have no rights.
