A couple highlights from the Cat Tower exhibit.

Back in Seattle. If anyone wants to (re)connect, lmk.

Pretty nauseating how easily Congress rubber stamped a $4 trillion dark slush fund for Wall St as “COVID relief,” yet somehow $600 for workers in pandemic is controversial.

Up close it’s staggering how much resistance there is in Washington to actually helping people directly.

“nobody uses USPS anymore” is such a privileged take when it’s the most accessible system for small businesses, inmates to contact their lawyers and family, and quite literally everyone else you failed to consider under your lens

Stop saying “we can’t afford” Homes for All, Green New Deal or Medicare for All.

If we didn't spend trillions on endless wars and tax breaks for millionaires, we could afford to house our homeless, care for our seniors, and save our planet.

We suffer from greed, not scarcity.

Why are we immediately publicly caving on the only thing keeping millions of people afloat? What is the point of this?

Your daily reminder that Gilead is charging $3,000 for a COVID drug that was developed with $70,000,000 of taxpayer dollars and costs them less than $10 to produce.

They screw us, they mock us, and then Mitch says extending unemployment and providing direct cash payments would deprive us of our dignity.

Sick of it.

Would be pretty cool if @TenderlyMag reached 4K followers on here before our shared birthday, July 8th. One year of independent, ad-free, compassionate, radical, diverse stories about animal rights and rescue, plant-based food, vegan philosophy and history, and so much more!

Really angry my council member (((Stephen Levin))) 🟣 voted YES for this budget. It does not #DefundNYPD . gothamist.com/news/theyre-so…
