Yeah I might be having too much fun in France 😍

leaning heavily into writing in my diary this year

Yall don’t even KNOW how life changing this was like we reset the entire timeline and I’d do it again in a heartbeat 🥺🥺

Snoop and Tom Brady: say no to hate Kendrick: actually

white liberals and leftists need to be very careful of the way they think and speak of the south (US) as a lost cause or some hate monolith considering the diversity of the populations there it’s ignorant as a minimum

Some of you all are mad weird about PSN being down. Like, other things exist…

once the South is clear on their self interest and white Southerners help Black Southerners help immigrants help queer Southerners help disabled Southerners etc it’s OVER for you hoes (by hoes I mean ruling/plantation class)

If you saw me angrily eating a snickers bar waiting for my prescription at Walgreens no you didn’t

Beyoncé becomes the first black woman this century to win Album of the Year at the #GRAMMYs  with ‘Cowboy Carter.’

Organizing tip of the day: if you are online mocking and making fun of impoverished Trump supporters, you’re useless and not a real progressive.

Organizing tip of the day: quit expecting the government to come to its senses.

oh and while I'm at it: turning off your phone and deciding not to pay attention to the news is not self-care, it's cowardice and I promise it won't help you feel better. Fascists want us isolated and self-absorbed! Self-care is reflection, connecting with others, and working with your community.

The ACLU doesn't need your money but your local mutual aid groups absolutely do.

I cannot stress this enough: the government does not care about you, me, or anyone with a net worth less than 1 billion. So WE must care for each other. The two things that are going to get us through the next 4+ years are going to be mutual aid and organizing. Not posting or panicking.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's intentional. They're calling it "flooding the zone." The intent is to overwhelm and exhaust us so we can not effectively resist. Something simple you can do right now now is to make sure to take breaks and rest.

Without downloading any new pics, where are you mentally?

TOUS LES MORTES-NES FORMENT UNE ARMEE. SOON WE WILL RECLAIM THE EARTH ❤️

I cannot stress how important it is to have an inner circle of folks that care about you and other people. I would legitimately be in crisis if it weren't for my organizer husband, @neonpainted.bsky.social and @myfhs.bsky.social.

You spend years platforming and agreeing with Nazis and the next thing you know people are not charitably interpreting a hand gesture

The thought of losing my birthright citizenship and having to do my own adjustment of status with my husband after leaving immigration law enrages me to a point that yall aren’t ready for 😃

Mark if you see this i just need you to know that nobody likes you, you’re ugly and you’ll never truly know if people are around you bc they find you tolerable or because they’re waiting for you to die and take all your money. I hope that haunts you ❤️

If you're going to read *that* Vulture article, do so with caution. I jumped in headfirst, and I was NOT prepared for the horrors. #fuckneilgaiman

Did not have “chatting about the cuteness of small towns with a Skarsgard” on my 2025 bingo card but I’m not mad at it.

I’ve spent the first week of 2025 with a god awful cough and fever. On the plus side, I get to do so from our cozy house and watching murder mysteries every night!

he set an alarm to wake up at midnight. He gave me a bunch of kisses and then posted this 🥺🥺

every year my husband spends a good few hours animating a gif from scratch for my birthday so he can post it on my Facebook wall as soon as the clock hits midnight. I married a good man ❤️

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok? Signed, a librarian.

@feministbookclub.bsky.social has become an employee-owned co-op & they need our help to get started. They’re just 1/2 way over their fundraising goal & it would be great if we could get them past it. If you can donate or share or both, that would be so lovely!!!! www.gofundme.com/f/feministbo...

Books are expensive but you know what’s free? ✨library✨cards✨
