Illinois respects the sovereignty and borders of Ukraine — now and always.  Three years ago, Russia invaded Ukraine without warning or provocation. Peace and freedom requires resistance to tyranny and oppression.   Slava Ukraini!

The US voted with Russia against the UN resolution condemning the invasion of Ukraine and demanding a withdrawal. Utter betrayal of country, allies, and principles.

From a FOIA perspective, "the entire federal workforce should write down and email what they did last week" is extremely funny

Something happened at work this week that I thought was funny and also relevant to current events. A technician in another department, who I do NOT like for many reasons (including him being a transphobic and anti-choice dipshit), came up to me when I was working and started to talk at me.

Don’t post front facing pictures of yourself maskless at protests. Don’t post front facing pictures of other people maskless at protests. Especially ppl of color. Seeing that all over with the Tesla stuff. You eagerly wanting to be seen doing something endangers both yourself and others.

True maturity is being capable of being a hater in a multifaceted, nuanced way and also being a hater in the “idk the vibes are putrid tho” way and NEVER getting the two mixed up

I understand that their goal is to harm a lot of marginalized people. We each need to do what we can to protect the vulnerable. I really get this and ALSO I just need as many people as possible who are able to do so to notice that these people are pathetic. They truly are. Just ridiculous.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

"They're putting persecuted Christian refugees in camps in the jungle" sounds like something Glenn Beck would accuse the Obama administration of doing and yet now it's a pillar of the Republican agenda.

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

Collectively, all of the stuff Trump has done over the last month has gotten about the same level of coverage in mainstream media as Joe Biden being old for three weeks in June, but nowhere near the level of alarm and outrage.

I cannot take seriously someone who thinks of Kennedy's eugenics rhetoric as a bright spot. This isn't even FAFO discourse, we have to stop trying to reason with people who were willing to watch everything burn as long as they got their pet project launched
