The YIMBY project in my city of San Diego began with the tearing down of SROs that housed low/no income people in the Gaslamp/East Village. Developers built luxury and never came through with the promised low income replacements.

What if the real question isn't whether elections matter—but how ordinary people build enough power to govern? This week on The Fascism Barometer, @ejeris.bsky.social talks with Sendolo Diaminah about why organizing and elections belong together—and how we fight fascism by building power.

I pulled a PDF of the article before NPR took it down, take a look for yourself. It's all a pre-write with quotes already in there, nothing in the content hinged on anything he was saying or doing today. Nina Totenberg just hit PUBLISH in the CMS too soon. drive.google.com/file/d/1MaZY...

Rebecca: "Chaps, Alexi left us" Zlatan: "Who? Rebecca: "Alexi will be back, Alexi will be back with us very soon" Thierry: "Your plan worked, Rebecca" Rebecca: "Don't you bring me into this, no chance" Zlatan: "America, you're welcome" lmaooooooooooooooooo

Friendly reminder that NPR has been fucking the dog with shit like this for awhile. No different than anyone else in the toilet for Trump, even though he's been coming for their funding. People need to be clear headed about this shit. Same as the other captured media

And stop saying more than 50% of white women voted for Trump. They didn't. He didn't even get half of white people overall, and you're just doing the far right propagandists' work for them by saying he did.

Adam Baldwin was literally *the* guy who named GamerGate and made it go viral. It was just some loser 4chan/incel YouTuber shit before then. They spammed him to get his attention because they knew he’s also a psycho loser and they wanted to make it go viral, and he did it. And it worked.

So, basically Fillion wants to produce a Firefly animated series, but hasn’t sold it to any network yet and is hoping to get fans to loudly demand it. Strangely, he has the sense to make clear Whedon isn’t involved, but dumb enough to have Adam Baldwin still in the cast deadline.com/2026/03/nath...

Not that it matters, but I have traced her ancestry extensively going through multiple generations and centuries. This is not true and appears to simply be echoing false claims made by prominent white supremacist Peter Brimelow.

I gather that everyone here is 100% certain Graham Platner is a Nazi antisemite. I also gather you all are trapped in an epistemic chamber sealed tighter than the one around Fox News. So, who here actually knew that Platner’s wife is Jewish? And how does that influence your certainty?

1️⃣ Last summer, a Democratic lawmaker in North Carolina gave the GOP *the* decisive vote to pass a pro-ICE law. Now, she faces a primary from a local progressive pastor who has been part of the Moral Monday movement. (A few other Dems who helped the GOP also face challengers.)

They're calling her the goat, the greatest to ever do it, the genius of the 21st century, the most vindicated bitch who ever lived, her haters in shambles her doubters in tears she's loosed the faithful lightning of her terrible swift sword, HER TRUTH IS MARCHING ON MOREOVER, ICE MUST BE DESTROYED

Thinking of all the military members serving in these operations. They courageously go where duty calls. Their sacrifices represent the best of us and they deserve leaders of integrity.

Expecting us – with good reason based on history – to all thank them for their service. Fuck your service and fuck you. Saving a life is brave. Being instructed to kill and saying no I will not do that is brave. But killing like this? It is the least human thing you can do.

So the BBC promised Davidson and StudioCanal (who made I Swear) that any swearing tics would be edited out from broadcast, and instead they left them in despite a two hour delay, and even put a fucking microphone right in front of him to ensure they picked it up - he was sat at the back of room.

Tourette syndrome activist John Davidson says Bafta told him ‘any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast’

Davidson said he ‘can’t begin to explain how upset and distraught I have been’ over slurs he shouted during the award ceremony
