My Haitian friend was just fired from his job. "They said I don't have a legal status now." This is likely happening to hundreds of thousands of people across this country today. Sick.

This is simply enraging: People are losing SNAP benefits because the fed govt has placed onerous bureaucratic hurdles that make it hard for eligible people to collect the benefits they are due. How dare we treat people in need this way? www.nytimes.com/2026/07/20/u...

If I win the lottery you’ll know because suddenly libraries will be open until 10pm
They call it a bird bath but you can def also use it

also not lost on me that as democratic socialists are winning some elections, a new red scare targeting anarchists, antifascists, and their allies is digging in hard, and today handed down 30, 50, and 100 year prison sentences to activists and organizers
