i've made 45 bilingual (eng/esp) copies of the Riot Medicine Field Guide, a concise companion book to the Hakan Geijer's robust protest medic text. i printed these specifically to distribute to action medics, though the content is informative for anyone and functions as a good hook for anyone interested learning more about street medicine.

if you would like one for yourself or as gift to someone ('tis the season!), please email me the address at <fallrise@riseup.net> and i will send one -- i am happy to cover the ~$4 shipping, but am willing to accept donations. if you have a medic crew and would like some for yourselves or for trainings, i can send you a box.

original texts can be found digitally at: riotmedicine.net/

Spanish police on Monday said they had broken up a cell of "The Base", a transnational neo-Nazi white supremacist group designated a terrorist organization by the European Union, Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

U.S.-founded neo-Nazi group designated as terrorist organization is busted in Spain

"The Base" operates through an international network of paramilitary cells with the aim of perpetrating attacks and preparing for a "race war," police said.

I suspect one reason it is so important to the ruling class that people should not sympathize with Palestine is that—once people recognize settler-colonialism there & the evils it inflicts, they will be more able to see it everywhere.

I certainly feel that by learning about the occupation of Palestine, I have come to understand more about occupied Turtle Island ("North America") & what has happened (and is STILL happening) here. Once you recognize the patterns you see them everywhere.

I'm a Google Workspace admin, and a team member sent me a screenshot showing that a message they wanted to send was being blocked because it violated an organizational policy-- which was news to me-- I hadn't put in place to block messages based on their content.

Turns out Google Workspace now warns by default when the message content mentions gender identity.

This hypocrisy and callousness is truly shameful. We don’t have to live like this.

US politicians enjoy universal healthcare—but vote NO to universal healthcare for workers.

US politicians enjoy living wages—but vote NO to living wages for workers.

US politicians enjoy paid sick leave—but vote NO to paid sick leave for workers.

We need and demand better. Vote OUT anti-worker politicians. (Democrats AND Republicans). Vote in public servants committed to justice above all else.

Remember—Billionaire philanthropy is PR

$6.25B is a lot of money. It’s also only 4.1% of the $152B Michael Dell has hoarded. If Dell paid the 37% tax rate on the wealthy he'd pay $56.25B—and still have nearly $100B, more than he'd ever need

Taxation of billionaires > philanthropy from billionaires

This is 2003 Iraq all over again.

The Govt of Venezuela has formally submitted a letter to OPEC claiming that the USA under Donald Trump is attempting to seize their oil reserves through military force.

This is criminal. It is another war as Americans starve.

Democrats need to make the case of impeachment and demand Republicans answer to the American people why they continue to stand by a fascist.
