giddy up

patriarchy =/= masculinity it weighs heavily on my soul that we’ve upheld a patriarchal culture where teenage boys (mostly white) become so angry that they go on violent, murderous rampages with guns, killing innocent adults and children to demonstrate their domination

@unusual_whales exploiting confidential info about national security is more than just unusual. it’s putting profit making over US lives. it’s called treason

I want you to understand how unusual this is. 6:49 AM on Monday: A sudden surge in oil futures trading, approximately $580 million in volume, no news, no announcement, nothing public. 7:05 AM: Trump announces a pause on Iran strikes. Markets move immediately. Roughly $580 million in contracts were placed about 16 minutes ahead of the news. Unusual.

@allieiswriting @maustermuhle 😩

@heartstarbear @maustermuhle This vote only required a simple majority

NEWS: As expected, the Senate has approved a resolution repealing the D.C. tax decoupling bill, following the House's lead earlier this week. The Senate vote was 49-47, fully along party lines. There's a wrinkle, though...

@SarahBILibrary pretty lame that they just need a simple majority from those who are voting. thanks for clarifying for me

the @SenateGOP is hurting the people of DC. SJ res 102 is anti-democratic, anti-family, destabilizes our local finances and is plain WRONG. worry about your own states #handsoffdc #freedc

@mattyglesias @DCWard7teacher picking on a teacher is loser behavior

@OrganizerMemes oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no

The new Kamala hq rebrand has a 6-7 joke in the @

@SenRickScott @POTUS your bill actually raises taxes on working families in dc. worry about your own state of florida. the people of dc can govern themselves. leave dc alone

The D.C. Council’s decision to BLOCK its residents from benefitting from @POTUS’ Working Families Tax Cuts is ABSURD. Government’s top priority should be serving families, not benefiting off them. rickscott.senate.gov/2026/2/sen-ric…

@BarredinDC curb taxi app if ridesharing. they don’t charge absurd fees like uber and lyft, and they are waaaaay more reliable

Taking kid to non metro accessible, street parking only, further than walking distance bday party today. Should we just take rideshare? Street parking seems impossible ?

@cuneytdil Worth also including that a federal judge in December found that ICE's arrests in DC were conducted without warrants or probable cause — and blocked these indiscriminate arrests. DC police cooperating with ICE provides a way around this injunction. theguardian.com/us-news/2025/d…

@KiuiAirica @AkilahObviously i meant national strike. organizing local and statewide strikes/walkouts is important. small, localized efforts have the ability to make a difference and build community care. my issue is with the call for a national strike. that’s not feasible for a lot of ppl rn

@heartstarbear @AkilahObviously Tell the ppl of Minnesota a 1 day strike didn’t do anything. every corp signed a fucking letter saying to find another way to protest cause they lost so much money. It starts small.

It’s always someone with no knowledge of boycotts and general strikes saying how it has no impact. Even a fraction of a percent of people in this country not shopping or selling when they normally would is impactful. Just say you aren’t participating and go!

We can’t keep blockchain posting our way to a general strike using meta and Twitter definitely not TikTok. Half these people posting about a National Strike participate in ZERO protest lmao literally just posting to be posting. When are we going to be real serious and organize?

@mattyglesias @Janeese4DC woweee what a melodramatic statement. which ward do you live in, matt?

dmv governments, stop trying to make snowcrete happen. it’s not going to happen

Interesting: Per a new report from the Congressional Budget Office, the deployment of the National Guard in D.C. (now up to 2,950 troops) cost $223 million from August-December, and will cost $55 million per month onwards. That means up to *$880 million* through the end of 2026.
