You can become disabled or homeless in an instant. It just takes one accident or illness to change your life forever. It’s not a moral failing. You can’t just “try harder”. People need support, compassion and to have their basic needs met. That’s how you ensure survival.

People should know that NYPL alone has 100 vacancies and that this doesn't include the 160 vacancies at BPL & QPL. Library workers also need higher pay. Meanwhile the libraries ARE NOT RECEIVING ENOUGH FUNDING. We need @mayor.nyc.gov and the @council.nyc.gov to fund libraries at 0.5% of budget now.

I’m primary caretaker for a baby now, spending nearly every hour of almost every day handling it all completely on my own. I’d like to be able to afford 1-2 days a week to knock out big chores (like laundry) & to be on the ground again. A nanny costs $20-$30/hr. I make $350/week lol

When you realize that the United States is just an occupying state of illegal settlers trying to stop non-white settlers from coming, maybe it’ll click.

City budget negotiations are moving towards an adopted FY27 budget, and your City Council Members need to hear from you - weigh in and tell them to fund our public libraries at 0.5% of the city expense budget. Easy steps with scripts and facts on our action page here: nycplan.org/actions/libr...

Apart from the moral repugnance, this is so revealing of how ignorant conservatives are about poverty. Poor people have to think about money ALL THE TIME. They worry constantly about what everything costs, how to substitute one purchase for another, what bill can be put off until payday, etc.

The Apothecary Diaries is just so fantastic and beautiful. And I hear the manga's art style is even more breathtaking than the show's art style, OMG. I'm also just coming off the heels of A Sign of Affection which was another 10/10 anime 🩷 #anime

Feelin’ real tired of how Americans flock to European cities each summer, return to gush about how enjoyable those cities are, but then vote against public transportation, bike-inclusive roads, housing, and building for people instead of for cars and corporations. Because racism and classism.

Boycotting is a privilege. Prepping is a privilege. Protesting is a privilege. Leaving the country is a privilege. Not all solutions are accessible to everyone. We need robust community care to ensure people aren’t left behind.

The reason why I keep reminding poor & middle-class white Americans that Project 2025 & that horrific bill is about making y'all serfs again, is often y'all really don't know history. All of what's going on is to have a permanent white underclass. In the screenshots is how they view y'all.

Blood is America's 9th Largest Export
Desperate citizens + lack of regulations = a booming blood trade in America. 400 plasma-collection clinics have opened since 2020.

In 2023, American blood - product exports made up 1.8% of the country's total goods exports. The total value of blood products exported was $37 Billion.
That makes blood the USA's ninth-largest goods export - ahead of coal and gold!

The big ugly bill cuts Medicaid & food assistance, both of which are crucial to the disability community. It drastically increases funding for the Gestapo, while also making the top 1% even richer. This should enrage people on both sides of the aisle. They’re taking Medicaid to give to kidnappers

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location. ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her. This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.
