My wife just got a Twitter handle and was looking for a good way to get news from leftist sources/perspectives, and anything else cool. Any good accounts come to mind? I’m kind of new to Left Twitter too so would love some recs. She isn’t like a full on communist yet but a solid socialist, so to speak, still like building her base of knowledge so would probably be turned off to any hardcore/outright theory accounts. Obvs any anarchist stuff welcome too. But yeah, just looking to give her a solid list to start with. Thanks for the help!

News/events orgs, journalists, people with good critical takes, etc
Funny people
Community outreach/mutual aid (+1 for PNW stuff)
Female voices, could be funny, feminist, anything really
BIPOC and LGBTQ+ perspectives
International news
She likes dance, forests, art, movies, etc
Anything else!

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
