If you call your rep today, just remember to be kind to whoever takes your call. Being upset with your rep is completely okay, but the people taking our calls are just doing their job. They could have been getting yelled at all day. Being the polite call could make all the difference to them.

When I ask for sources, it's not so I can say, "Gotcha! See you were wrong!" It's because if I'm wrong, I wanna know. I want the right information. I'm okay being wrong. I just need more than because one person says so. I need confirmed evidence from reliable people.

Something that I continue from MAGA is the heavy use of memes, hateful rhetoric, and disdain for those they label traitors or "The Left". It's just so night and day from my normal interactions in these spaces. We've got to keep choosing joy, love, peace, and kindness y'all. The country needs it.

Thank you everyone for your recommendations. We wound up watching the movie Honeymoon. Not bad, if only a little predictable. Solid 7 out of 10.

I love this, lol www.reddit.com/r/Unexpected...

Looking to relaxing tonight to watch a movie with the fam. We've been really enjoying horror genre. Anyone got some good suggestions? Feels like we've watched most of the new ones.

I worry that Mr. Buttigieg is right. We cannot let this go. In this administration they constantly seek to devert our eyes to something else. We must stay focused and unrelenting until someone is held to account.

Struggling with acquaintances that defend dismantling the DOE sucks. They say, "More power to the states" More power to the states how? It works. We had equal education for all, national oversight of policies, and federal assistance programs. Where's the failure? Feels bad man.

Right now, there’s an important race happening that will shape the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the next 10 years. Judge Susan Crawford is ready to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all Wisconsinites. Make a plan to vote early today — don’t wait until April 1st: wisdems.org/vote

Fox News today

Ossoff: This is what happens when you have Fox News personalities cosplaying as government officials.

The SecDef leak is wild. Surely Donny's administration is going to fire the Fox News correspondent playing the part, right? *Checks the news* Nope, same as always. The only people they'll hold to account are Dems. Carry on, same as always.

Nerd Alert, #WorldofWarcraft update: Vault day and Raid night. Been trying to at least fill my vault every week. Can't wait to get home and see what I got.

This new Monster Ultra, Vice Guava, is freaking good. I still miss the Blue Ultra though.

OSSOFF: Director Ratcliffe, this was a huge mistake, correct? RATLIFFE: No OSSOFF: This is an embarrassment

@reeciecolbert.bsky.social is killing it! And only 800 people are on this call www.youtube.com/watch?v=yr_i...

"Damnit Donny"

Started listening to Digital Kindness this morning on my commute. Reminded me of something @laurenhug.bsky.social talked about during our show. Would love to hear what brings you joy. I'll start: I find joy cooking dinner with my wife. It's our time without kids. Just us, being a couple.

Just saw @ossoff.bsky.social's speech this morning on YouTube. “Georgia will bow to no king.” Yup, but let's go further. THE U.S. WILL BOW TO NO KING More of this please. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEFz...

I'm Kat Abughazaleh and I'm running for Congress.

Every morning, twice I week, I wake up and teach a BJJ class. It's been slow growing and for the longest time there wasn't more than me and one to two other people. Had a new person this morning. We're up to 5 now. Feels good 😊

Not sure if this will help, but I'm not seeing enough response from university leadership to feel like there's another option. Please consider signing. 🧪⚛️

Three Wins Today (March 23, 2025) 1. While certain law firms are losing their spine, Keker announced yesterday that they will not give in 2. In Detroit and Windsor Ontario they held a joint rally to support Canada’s independence. 1/2

Tonight we decided to try and watch Wrong Turn (2021). While the plot points could have been interesting and unique. The writing and delivery are awful. 3/10

Great episode today with @laurenhug.bsky.social and @sarahzsays.bsky.social! Lauren, I thoroughly enjoyed your insightful and engaging conversation. It gives me a whole new outlook on how to interact with social media.

I just learned today, I'm one of the top 10 survival hunters on my server. 😀

Welcome to all our new followers! 💚

Ha! This is a brilliant idea. Republicans showcased how willing they were to screw over their constituents and Dems decide to capitalize on it. I've said before, Dems aren't perfect but their the best we've got to fight. More stuff like this, please.

Gotta love DISNEY! ❤️🌈✨

There's a reason why they're freaking out over what's happening to Tesla. It's working. There's a reason they're threatening absurd consequences. They need to scare you back into civility and compliance. As long as we're reluctant to cross the lines they ignore daily, they have the upper hand.

open.substack.com/pub/meidasto... "came out at the hearing per Politico that some of the people on the flight were returned from El Salvador because they either weren't Venezuelan or were women. The hard-labor prison is men-only, but the Trump Admin flew women there anyway." This regime needs to go!

Something special is happening! Bless these people!

When you look at this crowd AOC is drawing today, here’s the part you should remember. This is Greeley, Colorado where GOP Congressman Gabe Evans refuses to hold a town hall. They should all be counting their days in office.

For anyone that played. This was actually a fake post. But I think it speaks volumes about how incompetent the current administration is that some people thought it was real. Thanks for playing! bsky.app/profile/aaro...

Every time I hear Republicans say they want to lower the deficit, I'm reminded that Medicare for All would save us around $2 trillion over a 10-year period. Oh, and first term Trump had the highest deficit spending out of any recent President. Seems like it's only about saving the wealthy money.

Yesterday, I took a much needed break from the news and Bluesky. Now, instead of my head exploding with the inanities of the regime, it’s just doing the normal exploding. Don’t forget to take brain breaks and take care of your mental health.

Where is the law & order? We were all promised law and order? Once again, "rules for thee not for me". www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u...

Because this is the most pressing issue our representatives should be worried about. What a great use of our tax dollars. 🤡🤡🤡

Let's all play a little game. It's called Real Trump, Fake Trump. The rules are simple, you have to guess if it's a real post or a fake one. After 24 hours I'll post the answer. Here we go, real Trump or fake Trump?
