Normally, when you turn over the Tower card in a tarot spread, there's an "Oh crap" moment. This year? It's more like "Yeah, pretty much."

This is not easy to listen to, but it's important: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVQw...

Vance Boelter has been arrested, apparently thanks in part to a neighbor's trail camera: kstp.com/kstp-news/to...

Sometimes, I take a moment to be grateful to have gone through my "young and stupid" phase before social media and cameras everywhere were a thing. #GenX

This is not normal. This is not ok. Not remotely ok.

If you’ve ever wondered what you would’ve done in 1930s Germany — look around. You’re doing it now. We are so proud of the people rising up in nonviolent defiance — in LA, in #Chicago, and in cities nationwide. ❌👑 Join us Saturday, June 14 to protest Trump’s fascist regime: NoKings.org #NoKings

This is a take on the situation in California that seems important to share: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOEv...

Now is a time when we need to make decisions as though history has its eyes on us...because it does.

Your oath is to the Constitution, not to any individual.

What if, when someone says "I don't want children" people just...believed them? Instead of saying something like "But you'd be such a great parent" "You'll change your mind" or anything similar.

If someone complains about you having boundaries, you may want to ask yourself why they consider your boundaries inconvenient. That's usually an enlightening train of thought.

I took a class on the Holocaust in high school, and the thing I keep remembering right now is that Hitler's early "solution" was to try to kick all of the people he had targeted out of Germany. When that didn't work...well, I don't think I need to elaborate.

Apparently, the director of ICE doesn't like being compared to Nazis because they're "just following orders." Me: rolls eyes in history major #Nuremberg #How'dthatworkoutforthem

I never thought I'd find myself inclined to be on Walmart's side of an issue...and yet, here we are.

From now on, any time someone starts ranting about Biden, Obama, or Clinton, I will ask myself "What are they trying to NOT talk about?" I expect this to be illuminating.

This is the way.

They left the children inside the truck. Left them. I have no words.

They are now sending deported people to Libya, regardless of where people are actually from: www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkDT...

Apparently, the term "swasticars" hurts Elon's feelings. Do with this information what you will...

So accurate

Random thought: My Chaucer professor told us "If it looks like a dirty joke, it's a dirty joke. If you think it might once have been a dirty joke, it's a dirty joke." Classic literature? Absolutely? Worth studying? 100%. Clean? BWAAHAAHAA - No. #BAinEnglish

Want a tangible way to resist? Here's your homework. Follow the instructions in this super guide from our amazing friends at @fedworkersunited.bsky.social to comment by May 23 on the proposed Schedule F rule, which would remove civil service protections for a huge swath of the federal workforce.

I hope I never become a person who doesn't melt a little inside when the grandfather says "As you wish" at the end of "The Princess Bride."

I still snicker every time I think of this: If the Earth was flat, cats would have knocked everything off it already. In my opinion, anyone who doubts this has never been acquainted with a cat.

What if everyone realized that another person existing differently than they do is not: a) commentary on anyone else's life, b) an attempt to recruit anyone, c) a threat, or d) anyone else's business, really?

My brain says that Spring is a wonderful season. My sinuses disagree. Allergy medication is my friend.

"Tariff". He keeps using that word. I do not think it means what he thinks it means. #sorrynotsorry #GenX

Canada out here dropping truth bombs on us 🇨🇦

One thing I like to share with younger folks in particular: A bad romantic relationship is not better than no romantic relationship. You deserve respect, care, and love. If someone claims to love you but treats you badly...believe the behavior, not the words, and act accordingly.

The small pleasures, the simple things - they will help to sustain you when things feel bleak, and help you find the resources for one more battle. They are worth fighting for. It's not selfish to do something small for yourself. It's self care.

It was an honor to join Minnesota’s veterans at the Capitol today.   We have a shared responsibility to take care of those who put their lives on the line to fight for our democracy and our freedom. In Minnesota, we’re proud to honor that commitment.

Random thought: In my opinion, the Addams Family is one of the most loving and supportive families depicted in popular media. Just because I felt the need to post something lighter.
