I don't want a "Smart Fridge" that orders milk for me. I want a fridge that lasts 25 years and doesn't have a privacy policy that allows it to share my late-night snacking habits with my health insurance provider.

When we formed the Black Lives Matter movement white people projected immediately, assuming our thesis was “ONLY Black Lives Matter.” It’s projection b/c that’s what white people would and have meant. When we say Black Lives Matter, we’re insisting Black Lives Matter—just like all other lives.

happy summer solstice to those who celebrate <3
A group of witches are holding hands and looking up at the sky while performing a summer solstice ritual. Pagans are fantastic because they worship nature, and considering that many religions copied them or based their silly rituals on Pagan practices, I think that's beautiful.

I would like to emphasize that this very legitimate political/human rights statement does not have anything to do with religion. This is an issue we have with the actions of a government of a nation. And I have real issues with it and with how the world is responding.

Thank you!! When I looked into the definition of communism I came to believe it was really the most democratic system, but it was NOTHING like what was practiced by Russia or Italy. We get so caught up in nomenclature. “Of the people, by the people, for the people” is really the best benchmark.

They’re packaging it like this so it looks like a shallow trend, but Gen Z has gone through two financial crises, a pandemic, rising fascism, active shooter drills since they were toddlers, and are now being told by the oligarchy they’re to be replaced by robots. Socialism is the logical conclusion.

today I learned that the James Talarico "six genders" thing refers to him listing six different combinations of X and Y chromosomes (XX, XY, X, XXY, XYY, XXXY) that occur regularly. that isn't even lefty in any way, that's just a factually true statement!

I’m suspicious that the benchmarks we have been using to measure economic health has been hijacked by the top 1%. Stock market growth is good but the benefits are skewed toward that top percentage.

Just as increased consumer spending is a pointless benchmark if it doesn’t reflect that the spending is from an increasingly smaller % of the population and is influenced by price increases.
