For those asking: 1. Here is a petition to keep Bluestockings open and accessible: change.org/p/keep-bluestocki… 2. They ask for donations (or to BUY A BOOK) via their website: bluestockings.com
Lower East Side residents are trying to close Bluestockings bookstore because they give out narcan, socks, and toothpaste and let unhoused people go to the bathroom. Vile, disgusting behavior from LES gentrifiers. curbed.com/2023/12/bluestock…

Stop. Sending. Weapons. To. Israel.
Another 166 Palestinians were killed and 384 wounded in Gaza in the last 24 hours, according to the health ministry. Almost every hour of every day, the Israeli military is ending Palestinian lives.

I wish there was a way to help Americans understand that cars *are the pod*. They devour our cities, resources, strength, health, money, time and so many young lives. They blunt the senses. They anonymize. They appeal to our worst instincts and make the worst people powerful.

In an effort to appeal to Jewish Americans, Fox host Greg Gutfeld compares Jewish people to convicted murderer Derek Chauvin: "You are the new oppressor. You are the new cops. You are the new Chauvin and Hamas is the new George Floyd."

Aretha Franklin was tracked for 40 years by the FBI, which used false phone calls, surveillance, infiltration, and highly-placed sources in an attempt to tie her to "extremists" rol.st/3dVUkr1

Reminder that Ukraine is not the only country where Russia attacks and murders children.
Meanwhile in SYRIA. This is the case of children inside a school after a bombing by Assad forces and RUSSIA targeting civilian homes and markets in the city of Idlib, Syria. December 17, 2023

Today is the last Sunday that the Brooklyn Public Library (one of the largest library systems in the country) will be in operation. Remember that Eric Adams is responsible for this. Our kids and families will suffer because of his cuts.

Now that @GovBillLee has decided to place a higher transportation cost burden on the shoulders of TN workers traveling on I24, I’d like to remind you that Lee & Republicans literally just changed words in the TCA last yr to trick folks and sell their privatized toll lane plan. – at Nashville, TN
