The thing about "voting as harm reduction" is that many of us don't see restabilizing American liberalism—in all of its exceptionalist, revisionist, and imperialist violence, while facing a historic challenge to its legitimacy—to be harm reduction.

to everybody, your first step of immediate action is putting on a mask

Literally cannot emphasize this enough. If you're frightened for yourself and for the most vulnerable people in your community, WEAR A MASK. It's the easiest way you can consistently do something that materially benefits others! I'm also gonna tap the sign again cause 🙂🙂

ngl i think artists should think more about the labor conditions of the people they outsource their plastic trinkets and custom manufactured plush to. especially if youre vocal of the ethics and environmental impact of AI art.

the fact that the first openly trans member of congress is a zionist who immediately capitulated to fascists on the issue of her basic rights like this really sums up the current state of american politics incredibly well i think. just endlessly depressing stuff

Meet u there 🌈💖

it's important to point out that these immolations are not merely forms of protest (as i've seen some assume on here), they are acts of desperation in attempts to be transferred out of Red Onion. that is how brutal the systematic torture of these places are.

“Correction, I’m isolated because of how this illness interacts with people’s unwillingness to do COVID safety protocols like masking” I love her for making this distinction. So many of us have had our lives derailed by this ongoing pandemic and it’s important to remember this

the bekaa valley is a hub of incredible biodiversity. it spans the aammiq wetland, semi-natural woodlands, pastures & so many forests. the ecocide continues

Wait time for a disabled person to access medically assisted death in Canada? Three months. A specialist for many TREATABLE conditions? 12-18 months. Affordable housing? Multiple years. Palliative care, psychiatric care & pain management? Good luck. This is why we’re angry

This is why it’s important that you mask in all public spaces and not just at protests. If you only mask at protests, you are helping the police and the state to criminalize disabled people. You may not be aware, but disabled people here are also suffering a genocide.

We urge all people of conscience to refocus on Gaza - our people are facing annihilation. These platforms are their only way to reach the world and we have no right to drown them out with our meaningless commentary and arguments as we sit safely behind our screens in the west.

A slap in the face to Gaza, and all mutual aid requests. This shows that there is enough to go around, folks just pick & choose who to help based off of their infatuation with them. Our Link Tree contains a list of funds for Gazans that need urgent help 🇵🇸 linktr.ee/palestineasdiqa

This interview!! 🔥 “I think most people who are alive today will face the reality that COVID is a contributing factor to their death. Do people know this?… I’ve never seen such a wide disconnect between what the public thinks and what science says.”

israel bombing palestine tens of thousands of times in the last year has directly sped up the global warming timeline leading us farther down the deep end of the climate crisis and that impact is coming sooner rather than later

We must BDS Israel even if there's a ceasefire. What they've done--for the past 15 months and since 1947--is unforgivable. Israeli leaders and soldiers must face trial and punishment. We must never give up the cause of justice for and liberation of Palestinians.
