Itβs not about them. Itβs about us. We need to see each other doing things. This is the most visible way to do it. And those of us actually doing it are actively recruiting people. Join us in the work.
This site is worthless. I got excited about them at the start of the year. Itβs been in the 300k zone the entire time. Join indivisible or some other such group (or all of them). The strike IS coming but we all have to be on the same page to make it happen.
There are plenty of things going on all around you. Get connected to mutual aid groups and indivisible, etc in your area. If you donβt have any, start them. Itβs up to us.
Yes maβam. Pspspspsps.
I believe thatβs called a rhetorical question.
π¨π¨π¨If you live anywhere in the greater Chicago areaβ¦ICE will start using Great Lakes Naval Station as a command center for their βenforcementβ operations across Chicago on Sept 5. The base isnβt in the city or Cook County. Itβs north, in Lake County. Expect raids across entire the metropolitan area.
Aaaand this is why I love OT. All that is very much how I describe my job to parents. π₯°
One of the things I hate the most about anti-vaccine people is the way they frame autism as a fate worse than death.
Thank you on this labor day!!
Excellent question.
What in the ever loving fuck is going on here

Oh thatβs ok. Iβll just add it to the rest of the trauma. ππ«π
Thanks for ruining my life with that pic.
No fucking shit, Susan. π€¦π»ββοΈ
Well, when you put it that wayβ¦ THATβS FUCKING TERRIFYING. (ICYMI: thatβs how they did it in the Holocaust)

Please, please elaborate so more of us know how to do just that!
We all know the goal was always to βown the libs.β And in chasing that, too many have given up their own freedoms just to claim a hollow βwin.β What they donβt see is that the monster they fed never stops, it eventually comes for us all. And now their silence is deafening.

Ew. Seriously?! Guess I am just superior.
NGL I think we boycotters should maybe buy some stock, βgive them a second chanceβ, and make our own profits.

Itβs about damn time.
An idea:
These βstrongmenβ have got nothing next to this Black Woman. People need to sit down and observe the immense fortitude and grace.
Can we crowdfund a massage therapist (if she wants), and some entertainment (if she wants), and whatever else this Shero could possibly dream of?!?

@maddow.msnbc.com I will never ever defend Noem but as a neurodivergent occupational therapist who relies on deep pressure including weighted blankets to calm my nervous system, I implore you to see how utterly ableist this is and what you sparked in the comments. Do better.

Well hey yourself
Finally found the assholes on Bluesky. Anywayβ¦hope the rest of you are having an asshole-free day.
Not sure what your point is there but yes, I agree. Far from being an issue for me.
Not being a dick would be good. Thanks.
who just does not give a shit about your agenda and gleefully does whatever they want, ignoring your supposed power over them?! Itβs maddening to be the one thinking youβre in a powerful position only to have the βsubordinateβ respond like βnahβ π€ͺπ€‘ππ» 2/2
We can only control how we react to these things. So, are we going to let them have all the power as we cower in fear? Or are we going to do whatever we can to subvert that power? Sure using fear to force compliance works most of the time. But have you ever been trying to get a kid to comply 1/2
π oh thank goodness!
PS I did actually scroll through comments, look on their page, etc. But again, thanks for just being a dick.
Thanks for shaming me instead of just pointing me in the right direction.
Oops. /end. π¬

Not to mention the fact that the rest of the country doesnβt know *why* the leap from supporting Newsom to being βpro-murderβ.
It was more the βact accordinglyβ I was hoping for clarity on but thanks.

Iβm fixated on this idea now. We need to diffuse their power with joy and humor. Blowup dinosaur costumes, storm troopers, clowns, pride parade, etc. JOY as resistance.
YOU GUYS. We need to match their authoritarianism and fear mongering withJOY and HUMOR. We are not afraid. We are joyful no matter what. Joy is resistance. Do not take them seriously. Maybe we turn their roving bands of thugs into a pride parade. Or costume parade (blowup dinos, storm troopers, etc)
Also storm troopers. Or maybe even just regular schmoβs just always playing the imperial March anytime a roving band of thugs is spotted.
And maybe if/when the pigs turn around, the clowns just act SUPER nonchalant. Or maybe itβs not clowns but itβs sneaky spy ninja types that are CLEARLY capable of becoming invisible when someone tries to see them. I meanβ¦whatever it is, I think we need to make it the total opposite of scary.
How fun would it be if a pack of clowns just followed them everywhere?! Or bagpipers. Or children with pots to bang on.
Iβve never in my life wanted to do a nazi salute but part of me feels like we should start doing that to them to prove the point. Then again, many of them would probably take it as encouragement and not ironic.
Unreal.

Thatβs great but how about @govpritzker.illinois.gov you protect EVERYONE in your state. bsky.app/profile/msgr...
They arenβt clueless. This is deliberate.
No shit. π
Not the first I heard but yeah this one fell flat. Itβs too bad cuz I actually saw an awesome ad for it. Once.
Oof. π
Keep speaking up. STL proud. π
If youβre actually interested in making society betterβ¦youβre not concerned with getting laid. If youβre primarily concerned with getting laid, youβre not actually concerned with bettering society. You actually sound a LOT like them. And if youβre blocking folks for communicating an opposing viewβ¦
Weβre not silent AT ALL youβre just not listening. Maybe if we werenβt so busy trying to not get raped or so busy working harder to make the lower wages or in a battle over bodily autonomyβ¦ Til then, my rabbit and I get along just fine and I donβt have to worry that itβll kill me if it gets sad.

The path to solving hunger is to eat the rich.
The list on the right side is so fucking long. π€¬
Itβs funny when you said that on the pod, I almost paused it to jot it down to post later. Thanks for (always) doing the work for me. πβ€οΈβπ©Ήπ

I have had no desire to visit my grandma in Tulsa. Iβm now checking flights.
I will gladly bring along my pets as your reinforcements. Weβve got your back.
I can barely get my dog into my car how tf did THIS happen?! π
You know getting in there, to sit there adorably, was awkward AF.

For me, a better question is: will I ever have a moment free from such sadness?
Why is it acceptable for the president to use taxpayer money to fly overseas and cut a ribbon at his own golf course? Donβt normalize this abuse of office. Itβs blatant corruption.
πβ€οΈβπ©Ή itβll be ok. Iβll lead the way. π«£π¬
Thank you! Keep speaking up!
Please watch the whole thing and then share it. This must stop.

Your periodic reminder that the estimated cost to end hunger in the U.S. is $25 billion.
This is my shocked face. π
I REALLY wish these assholes had to opt out of the programs they bash.
I donβt see a problem here.
Shut the front door! I just commented on your other post saying you are not an old womanβ¦thinking to myself βshe barely looks my ageβ. Iβm 46. Youβre beautiful!
