If you are a liberal in deep blue territory, one thing you could try doing right now is figuring out how to replace your Democratic member of Congress next year. With very few exceptions, the typical safe seat Dem is not meeting the moment. Find someone who will and help them.

We don’t have a strong enough sense of community to do this. Our predecessors were able to do this (for months at a time) due to the fact that they were able to lean on each other. In this day and age we don’t have that level of camaraderie (by design) to even consider this no shade.

A customer sent me a picture of their Support Federal Workers, and I felt it went quite well with the neighboring sign: “There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest.” Hold the line, don’t resign. fedupstudio.etsy.com

it’s a great time to remind everyone to keep your cats indoors. i don’t want to hear that shit about how your cat is desperate to go outside or is used to being out there. i had an outdoor cat i had to bring inside after 13yrs. i know how they are. she lived to 20. they’ll get over it & so will you.

Honestly, not my lane as just a layperson, but part of me is hoping that the FAA and all the nation's airports just unilaterally decide to slow down flights, limit the number of arriving and departing flights, to match current Air Traffic Control staffing levels, for safety reasons. It's too much.

"Deja News" is a term I came up with to describe old information being continually presented as new so that the corrupt can dodge accountability and the media can enable them. Excerpts from my books HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT and THEY KNEW, published in 2020 and 2022:

There’s something so dated about writing that explains Blackness to yt ppl and doing that is not the same thing as actual art criticism of Black art. The former is so…magazine popularity era thru 2010s bird app. The latter is timeless—before & after aforementioned era too—and not zoo exhibitesque.

U.S. Attorneys are not the President’s lawyers. They are the United States’ lawyers. You didn’t pledge an oath to a President, you pledged it to the constitution. This statement alone is reason enough to resign.

Juan is harvesting lemons near Sanger CA. He earns $47 per 1000 lb box. Working at a fast rate, he can fill 2 of these boxes in 6 to 7 hours. He worries about days when it rains as they don't work, and this means they don't earn the money they need for basic expenses. #WeFeedYou

I finally got what's bugged me about all these stories on the crippling of the US govt: all of them speak of "cuts" when, in fact, only Congress can 'cut' funding, and it has done nothing of the sort. The story describes illegal & unconstitutional impoundment, BUT SAYS NOT ONE WORD ABOUT IT

I understand and appreciate the sentiment I do but thats not what it means either. The idea of being aware of systemic racism being made a byword by the right only to be sanitized as general good heartedness demonstrates how concepts are drained of vigor. variety.com/2025/film/ne...
