I attended the Supreme Court of #Texas on Wednesday to help @deceleration cover a unique case involving #Indigenous religious freedom, pandemic restrictions on churches, and a cormorant rookery in a San Antonio park.

“When people can’t get their #SNAP, they’re going to go to the #food banks. There isn’t enough food in the food pantries to handle this need. I mean, they’re all saying we’re going to run out of food. There’s no way we can replace everybody’s SNAP benefits.” https://www.texasobserver.org/snap-benefits-shutdown-will-leave-hungry-students/
The Nation magazine, August 26, 2025: "Graham Platner is the real deal."
October 2025: One unflattering revelation after another about Graham Platner, including horrifying, macho-white-male comments about women and Black people, and the bit about the Nazi tattoo.
The Nation magazine, October 29, 2025: "It's precisely in his flaws that I find Platner most appealing."

[Made in NOLA] 一堆險些被當廢紙處理的破舊日誌記載的竟是延續百年的紐奧良黑人社群協作和抗爭的歷史。從這些破舊記錄裡還原的一個個鮮活個體的故事竟可以一直延續到作者著手調查和寫作的過程中，從可以在這些日誌找到自己祖先的左鄰右舍，到見證社團舊址最後一刻命運的父母摯友，更不用說熟識的樂界泰斗無不將這個曾經位於 Treme 社區裡的小樓尊為爵士樂的聖堂。所以說嘛，我們在紐奧良的小學從來沒教過愛國歌曲，coz New Orleans is way much Greater than this sick country. 真是受不了沒文化的北方佬“my country my country”地叨叨叨…NOLA獨立 刻不容緩！
Wow, tonight's U.S. election results are looking stunningly good for Democrats across the board right now.
We've got a long fight ahead of us to fully beat back the fascists, and a lot more people are going to get hurt before it's over, and the damage they're doing is going to take decades to fix, but if tonight's results are any indication, we surely haven't lost yet. Chin up, keep the faith, keep fighting!

Really curious about the thoughts on this one. #politics should help, and I'm curious if @lisamelton could boost for visibility?
New from Francesca D'Annunzio: The #Texas Department of Public Safety and #ICE recently signed a pair of agreements that will authorize some state police within DPS’s Criminal Investigations and Highway Patrol divisions to effectively operate as ICE agents, on a statewide basis. https://www.texasobserver.org/texas-dps-287g-ice-trump-abbott/

Host FED UP With Israeli Flak's BS
The perfect candidate to step in for Biden will be the one who is confident looking out over the massive crowd gathered for his or her ascension and saying:
“And to my Republican friends… [restrained catcalls & boos] …to my Republican friends, my party and I welcome the fight ahead! And I urge you, please, please—do not do what we have done; stick with Trump!”
Some #schadenfreude for you 🤭

“The South really did not lose [the Civil War] when it came to maintaining this form of free labor.”

Funny how Grindr traffic goes up dramatically in a particular city every time republicans hold a convention there.

From a friend here, if you're wondering why what the GOP is really saying: "no food stamps until you agree to no insurance"
"Yesterday we got a letter in the mail saying that our insurance in 2026 is going from $226/month to $2984/month. Let that sink in. More than our rent."
The Wind and the Sun argued which was stronger
A traveler came along wrapped in a cloak
They agreed the one who could make the traveler take their cloak off was the stronger
The Wind blew as hard as he could, but the more he blew the more closely the traveler held their cloak
The Wind gave up
Then the Sun shined out a little, then she shined out more and more warmly
The traveler loosened, then eventually, took off their cloak
The Wind confessed that the Sun was the stronger
OMG.
Get it right, Dems.
Our leader has spoken.
He has taken the first courageous, high-risk step.
But he has taken the correct one.
God bless him, and God bless America.
