The good news is that there *are* people meeting the moment. youtu.be/EJxRtjma7lc

The only fair way to handle this is to appoint a team of teenagers to tear this company limb from limb until we find out what kind of financial damage they are hiding and where

Pay attention: Look at the injuries on Amazon warehouse floors — look at Amazon’s contributions to the president — and then look who has been nominated to head the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

Slow progress, but not a single crop yet. Squirrels are eating everything. I'm tucking almost everything in with cozy crop blankets so I can have some food for the humans. #resistancegarden

I’m not going to the Joint Address. I will be live posting and chatting with you all here instead. Then going on IG Live after.

Swalwell: The stock market is crashing, and prices are rising. This guy has gone to the Super Bowl, the Daytona 500, and a UFC fight. He should go to the fucking supermarket and see what people are spending to feed themselves

Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

Just saying.

Hi, just a reminder that when you use Libro.fm for your audiobooks, you support independent bookshops vs. large corporations that drive them out of business. We also pay taxes. And so do indie bookshops.

The FAA is close to canceling a $2.4 billion contract with Verizon to overhaul the communications system that serves as the backbone of the nation’s air traffic control and is awarding the work to Musk’s Starlink. Follow the money and see where it goes.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

Get in good trouble, necessary trouble.

Celal & Emine Emanet aren’t criminals. They aren’t undocumented. They were waiting for their green cards for NINE YEARS. ICE ripped them away anyway. They gave food to the homeless, ran a beloved restaurant, AND followed every immigration rule, and a 15 yr old with autism just lost his parents.

Crockett: Mr. President, guess what? Russia invaded Ukraine. Can we at least agree on that one? Facts matter. Is there anybody in here that has enough courage to say Russia invaded Ukraine? …. Crockett: This is the problem

Today’s Oaxaca, Mexico wall art. The world understands.

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

It's hard to know who to trust with this SSRI thing. On one hand, they’ve saved millions of lives. On the other, this girl from high school who only did butt stuff so she could "still be a virgin" says we should just “eat clean” and “get some fresh air.” Tough call.

My resistance garden is taking shape! My activism the first term was loud, public and spread across lots of different groups. It's what I could give at the time. This time, my fight is focused on my family and one queer community group. And I'm telling myself that's okay. #resist #activism #garden

Just going to leave this link here for reasons

In 2016 I cried, then got up and planned a March for Science in my town. I was very pregnant with my second child. So pregnant that I gave birth 12 hours before that March.

Truly chilling and totalitarian. “Promoting patriotic education”? We have arrived at the terrible place. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Let’s say you’ve magically procured $1 million a year, but there’s a catch: You can’t spend it on yourself; you can only invest it in your local community to make it better. What sorts of things would you do with the money?

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce. Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.
