Fellow Asian Americans: your imagined and desired proximity to whiteness will not save you.

Yep, definitely will not be voting for @rephaleystevens.bsky.social even if she is the democratic nominee in Michigan. 2026 is the year I vote based on the quality of the candidate, not on which party they belong to because it's clear democrats do not represent my interests.

If @jocelynbenson.bsky.social is the nominee for MI governor, I'll be sitting out this election; just like I'll be sitting out the senator's race if the nominee is @rephaleystevens.bsky.social No more voting for democrats that put corporate and foreign interests first. #NoDataCentersInMichigan

@slotkin.senate.gov why are you endorsing giving $50 million of our tax payer dollars to a mining company for a project that could contaminate our Great Lakes? How much money have you taken from them? You never answer your constituents but you have all the time for lobbies and Israel.

Yet still nothing to say about the new private ICE facility in MI? And still supporting genocide in Palestine? And still no answering of your phones or returning messages? You know who answers phone calls? Tom Barrett. You are trash - resign.

This is what happens when PoS politicians (the pretend to care but don't) like @slotkin.senate.gov and other @democrats.org take money from genocidal nation-states and corporate PACs. Primary them all, and let's start planning now for 2030 to primary Slotkin, Gallego, etc...

@slotkin.senate.gov Your tweet is a lie. I have called numerous times and left many messages and not one call back. Anyone else having a hard time getting a hold of the people that should be working for us, not aipac, private prisons, crypto, or corporations?

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

If you want to understand the horror and tragedy of our current moment - you have to watch #andor The heartbreak that emerges is that we all know deep down this genocide was preventable, but there are more Dedras and Cyrils in our galaxy than Cassians and Bixes.

One of the reasons I stay over there is to follow Palestinians and I keep hearing that Bluesky is erasing Palestinian accounts? Anyone who law hear that? Is there a Palestinian starter pack on here? A space that calls itself progressive that censors anything about Palestine is not progressive 🤷🏾‍♀️

Opinion | Pope Francis, dead at 88, was a pontiff for the 21st century
Jorge Mario Bergoglio becoming pope was a singular event, likely not to be repeated in our lifetimes.

Every time I see a post about this, I think about doctors performing surgeries without anesthesia in Gaza. Even if you cannot get yourself to care about others, at least have the understanding that what happens “there” opens doors to horrors here.

A lot of people are upset that folks are making fun of a dead insurance-company CEO. These same people have been indifferent, if not gleeful, about the ongoing genocide in Palestine. Spare me the outrage.
