This photo was taken of miners at the end of their shift during the Gilded Age before they were unionized. This Labor Day remember the blood, sweat, and tears that those before us paid to give the working class the basic rights we enjoy today. #UnionStrong #HappyLaborDay #NoGodsNoMasters
On this day, we remember that labor should be entitled to all it creates. But in reality, billionaires pocket the fruits of our labor for themselves. This makes us poorer individually and collectively, as essential needs go unfunded so that the rich can enjoy our riches.
If I were an Angel City fan I would be rightly fuming with my club. Given AT was their number one draft pick and hometown signing too?
If you have tomorrow off, if your kids attend middle school instead of working in a factory, if you have workplace protections, and if you have sick leave and vacation time, thank unions. Even if you don't belong to one, they're responsible for things we all take for granted. And happy #LaborDay.
Bruh, the rich ruin everything. Congrats Chelsea on getting Alyssa Thompson.
I highly recommend playing Vietnam-era Hanoi Hannah recordings around these fine folks.
It does feel like we’re underperforming, which is especially frustrating given the level of talent on the team.
*sitting in eternal judgment room* What kind of life did you lead? I dunno, pretty good I think. One time I wasn't heard from for a couple days and literally most of the world get super excited, but overall pretty good
Uhhh… Utah? Portland? Yall on something?
Live your life such that everyone doesn’t spend ten solid years planning the rager they’re going to throw when you die.
y’all know what one of the first nazi book burnings was right? y’all know why they did it y’all know trans people were one of their first targets and even the ALLIES left us in the camps when liberating everyone else y’all see what’s right in front of you, right?
wish people would expand their definition of safety to include safety from government violence
ISU soccer vs Drake on the + now. #BlueCy
Yep! It’s just that a bunch of Twitter people and analysts didn’t watch the fucking game!
Gonna consume every piece of Clone content this week
Yesterday’s Farmageddon game is what the billionaires want to take away from us! #BlueCy
I’m getting tired of hearing that Avery outplayed Rocco yesterday. Avery: 21/30, 273, 2 TD, 1 RTD, 0 INT, 76.0 QBR Rocco: 14/28, 183, 2 TD, 1 RTD, 0 INT, 77.1 QBR Basically the same stats (yards don’t win games), and Rocco led a game-icing drive to win it. I’d take that every day. #BlueCy
Everyone needs to get comfortable calling this what this is: a military occupation of the nations capital by anti constitutional fascist ground forces.
What a fantastic day. Needed this to keep up the fight.
✅Cyclone FB ✅Spirit ✅Packers Pretty great sports day
A Spirit win at Oracle Park 🙌
SPIRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITS DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUB
The Coast Guard works for ICE now. Coast Guard planes previously used for search and rescue have done hundreds of secret ICE flights in recent weeks, including two I watched from a public parking lot near BWI. My exclusive for Rolling Stone: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Basking in the glow of being the first team to 1-0 of the season is a FEELING, y’all.
Bay fans did Free DC at minute 51. Solidarity 🫶🫡 #nwsl cc: @dreyesceron.bsky.social

TOUCHDOWN CYCLONES
I mean… did we expect anything else?
ITS GAMEDAY
The main successful fascist operation happening is the ICE one and even that’s being pushed back in the streets by less than 1% of the US population, quite successfully. A truly unified opposition would be able to stop Trump completely.
Or the files are a distraction from a fascist takeover of the U.S.
SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov on fascism in 🇺🇸 : “There is not safety in keeping your head down… People who oppose public policy decisions but are too afraid of retribution from their government to speak their mind should send a chill down all of our spines.”
🔔 ALERTA PATRÓN ICE COLUMBIA HEIGHTS 🔔 en los pasados dos días (8/21-22) cuatro personas en el área han sido llevadas por ICE en las horas tempranas de la mañana afuera de sus casas de camino a sus autos o dentro de ellos.
On the bright side, we’re gonna have a great music era. Funk might make a comeback.
Hoping for good news. But based on the current regime, condolences.
Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. Stay safe, stand with your community, and most importantly, know your rights:
Maxwell defending Trump shows why everyone putting all their eggs in the "RELEASE THE FILES" basket are naive. Maxwell was never going to be truthful. Those files were never going to be released truthfully. And now you're out here calling actual serious things distractions and ignoring them
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
They're taking book bans online: parents can now censor the internet—calling classics like Beloved or The Handmaid’s Tale 'harmful to minors.' We must fight this attack on everyone’s right to speak online. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
re: the cracker barrel thing—I think the rightwing is hopping on it because they are looking for any way to make it seem like they are on the back foot. they need to be constant victims and this is the best they've come up with and it isn't very good.
Or do they go back to their old neoliberal ways and repeat the cycle?
…an ideological cult leader that held everything together the same way as in the first iteration / they lost the figurehead midway through. Now the big question is… does the new New Republic and New Jedi Order offer a paradigm shift after the fall of the First Order and the last remaining Sith?
And this time the fascists made sure that all of their opponents were destroyed and or ousted in the first pass, in a much more violent manner. Now they did collapse faster the second time, because there was internal fighting and no more adults in the room. They also didn’t have…
There was no real change between the Old and New Republic organizationally or structurally. Everyone just wanted things to get back to a sense of normalcy, but didn’t address the deeper issues in the society that CAUSED the rise of the fascist regime. Then surprise, a bit later, everything blew up.
Yeah! You had a neoliberal government replace a mostly fascist government without actually removing the vestiges and people who allowed the fascists to take over. There was no hunting down and imprisonment/killing of former regime officials like in Germany.
Random thought. Trump 1 was the Empire. Biden was the New Republic. Trump 2 is the First Order. I should make a video on this.
Fuck Third Way
i don’t fuck with politico cos politico’s thing is manufacturing consent & they’re pushing garbage from third way whose thing is securing a future for white men but if someone wants to declare you can’t talk about incarcerated people during the YEAR OF CONCENTRATION CAMPS they’re evil. period.
ALYSSA THOMPSON CELLY CLINIC 🥳
angel city, plz
I think it’s really interesting that the two professional women’s sports teams I follow have rivalries with New York teams.
I have that one catchy Brazilian TikTok song going through my head. And I have the displeasure of knowing the translation.
Fun fact: Did you know you can download a complete copy of Wikipedia to your local hard drive? The uncompressed filesize is 86gb, small enough to fit on a $10 thumbdrive. With the sustained legal threats faced by the Internet Archive and the information decay posed by LLMs, it's worth a thought.
Jimmy Dobson dead it’s time for a TikTok thread
Jessica: These are headlines. In wake of trump tariffs, John Deere announced layoffs. Pepsico will increase prices by 10%. Sony is raising PS5 prices in the U.S. by $50 across all models and electric bills are up 10% so far this year.
james dobson is dead and cannot wish anything but eternal pain on that mother fucker. that guy destroyed so many lives
Hey 🏳️⚧️ friends, might wanna take some steps to remove data from your doctors office or ensure they aren’t sharing it.
There is something that has been building for years and seems to have kicked off with climate change and gained speed in the first Trump admin and is now going full-bore and it’s this apocalypse fetish where people are actively wishing and hoping for bad things to happen and it’s fucking weird.
E.g. most anything that the (Republican) ruling class and ultra wealthy indulge in on a daily basis.
So my brother has been learning about the investigation branch of ICE, HSI. They had BUDGET CUTS unlike their sister branch, ICE ERO. And guess why: they investigate trafficking, money laundering, sex tourism, child exploitation, cybercrimes (crypto + fraud), human rights violations, etc.
Well that was fun!
See I cancelled my P+ subscription and was watching on ESPN+
Ok what were yall watching on cause I only had the Spanish broadcast
The “Bela” mystery is solved, Musk and Murdoch are teaming up to influence and rig the upcoming US elections. Musk was passing through Bella to a property owned by James Murdoch, the son of media mogul Rupert Murdoch. He is also a board member of Tesla.
WE WANT ANOTHER ONE JUST LIKE THE OTHER ONE, WE WANT EIGHT
The ball movement on that goal was *chefs kiss*
Far too many Iowans have lost this spirit.
Brb replaying this CLUTCH Alyssa Naeher goal on repeat 🔁
ALYSSA NAEHER'S FIRST-EVER NWSL GOAL AND ON HER 200TH CAREER APPEARANCE TOO!!!!
I’m so glad this didn’t happen against the spirit so I can revel in it
An Alyssa Naeher goal just for you. #NWSL
"Goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher Scores Last-Minute Equalizer for First-Ever NWSL Goal" has to be the most NWSL After Dark sentence in the history of human existence
NWSL After Dark: Monday edition 👀
DC land area is only ~60 sq miles. Where are all these national guard troops going to go? At this rate you'll have a platoon on every corner.
CBSSN can go fuck itself
Elected representative in Texas left locked in the House chamber because she refused a DPS escort. I know there's a lot going on, but if this isn't a front page story in every US newspaper tomorrow, our press is massively failing us. And yes, I know that they already are.
And it's not even Newsom's IDEA!!!!
God knew I’d be too powerful if she gave me clear skin
Will The Spirit make one last move to compete in the current NWSL arms race?!?
If pundits would like to talk about violence, a terrorist recently shot up the CDC and another assassinated Democratic officials in Minnesota but they sort of let both stories disappear Not as threatening as motorbikes in DC I know but maybe we could circle back?
