This restaurant didn't know, but it was absolutely cooking with this one. The irony is sweet while the food is spicy.

After everything, I finally got accepted to study Electrical Engineering at the University of Glasgow. 🎓🤍 The only thing standing between me and this dream is tuition. I’m sorry for asking, but I don’t want to lose this opportunity after coming this far. 🙏🏽 #traveltiktok #onthisday #highereducation #studyabroad #electricalengineering

Wtf is even going on anymore?

This is from the wikipedia article about Michael Harrington, generally considered to be the DSA’s founder. The libs were right: socialism is (apparently) when you commit genocide.

Edit: lol I did not think I would be starting a thread with a million replies but here we go I guess.

Hey folks,

A group associated with the PSL, the People’s Forum, is doing a big fundraiser for the people of Venezuela to help with the recovery efforts there. I’d appreciate it if y’all could try and share this as widely as possible. The link above is the instagram post and here’s the fundraising link: https://www.paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=9VBXPLJTTAAFJ

I'm mainly just a barely literate dork who shouldn't have internet access, but somehow there are thousands or millions of people who are even worse?

Not to alarm you... but some of them may even be on this very website!

Won't be linking it here for obvious reasons but it really blows that such a good url is claimed by something that sucks so bad.

The main page says:

"Queer is not the same as being gay or trans. It’s not an identity—it’s a far-left ideological weapon. Queer Marxism is one of the most dangerous and dystopian ideologies in the United States today, seeking to abolish gender, the nuclear family, and our entire way of life. It’s also one of the most misunderstood.

The Queer Marxism Project exists to document its rise as an anti-capitalist revolutionary movement, tracing its roots from the 1960s to today using primary source evidence."

Their methods appear to be a mix between Project Veritas and Kiwifarms where they collect written and recorded materials to present in freakshow style to push their point that queerness is evil or something.

The individual behind this is a self-described fascist that seems to makes a living doing freelance "infiltrate and expose" content independently and for sites like PragerU. They also have a podcast/stream with 600+ episodes that seems to be this kind of stuff but live, which seems to be a very sad waste of time and effort. There isn't much content aside from a wall of text talking about what the site will be next to links to other, equally underdeveloped projects that are basically the same thing + a merch store.

Kinda creepy honestly.

Btw I found this when looking for recordings of talks at a recent conference about queer marxism that was put on by the communist party of norway. They're not all up yet but Luna Oi!'s contribution on the state of queer rights in Vietnam was uploaded this morning, well worth a listen.

That's it, that's the post.

My name is Suleiman. Alhamdulillah, I was fortunate enough to receive a university acceptance in Egypt. However, my happiness remains incomplete because I have not been able to leave Gaza and begin this new chapter of my life.

For a long time, I have held onto the dream of continuing my education after it was interrupted by the war and the difficult circumstances we face. Every time I feel close to reaching that dream, another obstacle appears in my path. Right now, one of the biggest challenges is the cost of coordination and travel procedures, which are far beyond what I can afford.

Despite everything, I thank God and keep hope alive. I remind myself every day that relief will come, and that there are kind-hearted people who have not forgotten me and my family. Their support and donations help us survive, put food on the table, and give us the strength to keep going. Knowing that such people exist brings peace to my heart.

I humbly ask for your support. Every donation, no matter how small, and every share of my story makes a real difference. Your kindness helps me move closer to my dream of continuing my education and brings joy and hope to the faces of my younger siblings and family.

Thank you for standing with us. ❤️

About new economic measures in Cuba

Dear followers: As you may have read in the news cited here the day before yesterday, the National Assembly of People's Power of Cuba approved 176 measures proposed by the leadership of the Communist Party of Cuba and the government of the Republic of Cuba to revitalize the Cuban economy.

These 176 measures facilitate private investment, both domestic and foreign, in almost all sectors. They also propose converting state-owned enterprises into commercial companies, with the state holding the majority stake, and deregulate other aspects. One of the most controversial points is that the state will relinquish its power to cap prices and allow the market to regulate them.

Although the National Assembly approved the package of measures in just 3 hours (which includes a salary increase for workers in the state sector of health services, education, and other services—that is, those who do not work in state-owned enterprises), the debate on social media is enormous, especially among defenders of our Revolution. There is much discussion about the measures and their likely implementation, with messages ranging from descriptions of a betrayal of Fidel Castro's legacy and the end of Cuban socialism, to others defending the measures as a necessary and urgent remedy.

The situation of the Cuban economy is very difficult. The main cause of the crisis is the economic aggression of the US, intensified since 2019 and increased since January 2026, as we all know. This affects even trade and investment between other countries and Cuba, and even more so the supply of fuel, which especially affects public services and leaves 60% of our electricity generation capacity idle, as we have been denouncing.

Added to this is the government's ineffectiveness in preventing phenomena such as tax evasion by many private businesses, which refuse to allow customers to make digital payments, while simultaneously refusing to deposit cash in banks to buy dollars on the black market and continue importing for resale, not for production and export. The situation on this issue is not the same in all provinces, but it has affected payments to retirees and pensioners.

Is the Cuban Revolution in danger? It is at a very dangerous moment, subjected to a brutal siege and under the threat of imperialist military aggression. Added to this are the disagreements over measures that, from our point of view, have not been well explained and give too much space to private capital in a society where the state has always supported and ensured the lives of the masses.

We ourselves, Cubans, revolutionaries, and communists, maintain our confidence in the wisdom of our people, developed during 68 years of hard battles, and in the openness of our country's leadership to always listen to the population.

We will try to provide some additional information in the coming days.

I cannot stress this enough: I live for the day these cruel bastards get gulaged. This shit is why I'm a leftist.
