A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment. Millions of people with jobs—even multiple jobs—aren't safe from homelessness in this country.

Maybe the largest contributor to our current moment globally is that bullies have all figured out that there are no consequences at all for cruelty. There are however mounds of penalties for kindness and bravery.

We have the top ranked public school system in the US here in MA but in 2023 here in the Bluest county in the Bluest state, cops raided a public school classroom because they _heard_ that the teacher might have a copy of “Gender Queer” a book for 12-18 year olds. Same cops cooperated with ICE raids

ABC News is still calling RFK Jr. a “vaccine skeptic.” The dude was one of the most prominent anti-vaccine activists for decades. There’s video of him in 2023 saying that there’s no vaccine which is safe and effective. You can call him an anti-vaccine activist!

“We literally hate the people opposing fascism more than the fascists.” I voted for Adam Schiff, a man who has voted for too many of Trump’s nominees to count. He talks tough on TV yet literally votes for Trump’s agenda. It’s insulting to pretend like Dems are doing all they can to fight back.

With all due respect, this country already experienced four years of Trump, witnessed him attempt a self-coup, and yet he won again through the popular vote. I’ve spent 7 months watching Dems I voted for confirm Trump’s nominees. This country is beyond redemption and nobody is coming to save us.

Queer folks and Black women are the only two demographics that didn’t go more Trump in 2024, and the national Democratic establishment seems determined to slap both of us in the face over and over again. I guess they’re aren’t interested in having a stable voting base, for some reason?
