ā€œDonā€™t be evilā€. Or I guess, do be evil. Fuck you, Google.

Hey NYTimes ā€” *now* youā€™re lighting the beacons? NOW?!? After months of ā€œSauron: Avatar Of Evilā€¦ Or Extreme Uniter?ā€ thumbsucker reporting youā€™re screaming what weā€™ve known since 2015? Fuck all the way off.

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

ā€œLadies and gentleman and every other gender that absolutely existsā€¦ā€. Pink intro at FireAidLA. Love her! #fireaid #pink

Trump: ā€œThe buck never stops here.ā€ 35% of voters will support him no matter what. 45% will dependably oppose his policies. 20% will get tired of hearing him blame his predecessor. We need to help them get tired by pointing out Trumpā€™s vindictiveness, pettiness, and weakness.

ā€œTerrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.ā€ Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Canada needs to step up its public health game. Itā€™s only a matter of time before a zoonotic or other infectious disease ends up spreading endemically in the U.S. over medical disinformation, and then after that, itā€™ll be a matter of weeks before it spreads over this side of the border.

The thing is, I feel like if someone truly, accidentally, & unintentionally made a n*zi salute on a national stage, they would be appropriately horrified by it and apologize. And when they donā€™t ā€¦.. it says everything.

Going to repost this article again: "You don't have to make this unnecessarily complicated here at the beginning. Anyone who sweeps the right arm on a political stage in a political speech to a partly right-wing extremist audience, and several times obliquely, makes the Hitler salute." [translated]

Donā€™t let the ghouls screw you over.

#wikipedia Says the Same Thing - šŸ˜

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Let's call these policies for what they are. Not just Trumpism. Trumpartheid.

ā€œMuskā€™s Hitler salute cannot and must not be swept under the rug. The US press, cowed as it has been under [Biden], cannot be trusted to cover the new presidentā€™s administration with any backbone or honesty.ā€ From the Lemkin Inst. for Genocide Prevention: www.lemkininstitute.com/red-flag-ale...

They really are.

We shall rise and fight. Fight like our lives depend on it, because they absolutely do. Fight until the fascists are defeated. Use your anger for good!!

I want every single trans person to read this document. It is important to understand what we are fighting against and the shamelessness of their hatred. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

If youā€™re waiting for a charismatic leader to step up and fix everything, get used to waiting. Thereā€™s no mythical rescuer coming. Thereā€™s just all of us and the daily work of supporting our communities. Find a local org, get involved, help the people around you. Thatā€™s the only answer.

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic. (posting in 3 parts due to Bluesky's 1 minute limit)

I know this sounds weak, I know it. But kindness is one of the few things we carry that can make a difference for each other. We canā€™t undo all this hate, but we can still make life a little easier for others.

New, from my onetime hevruta/study partner. Finally, a book on Jewish ethics from an ethicist who walks the walk, a mensch who does the right thing in real life.

If it isn't a Nazi salute, then why did the coverage feel the need to quickly cut away when Elon was doing it? TV is never *Live* - there is always a delay. Someone saw him do that live, with all the context, & actively suppressed it from being shown because they too thought it was a nazi salute.

So I heard we were all sharing US banned books because their government censorship is batshit, so here y'all go, here's a good few. I'll be uploading more, but I thought I'd begin contributing. You can open epub files in ebook readers and in the built-in books apps on mobile. See Below:

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

This cannot be stressed enough. People do not in fact know what to do about most of what's happening. There are lots of things happening at once and a lot of it is complex. So if you actually have CONCRETE and SPECIFIC actions to suggest, do that. Some people will appreciate it & jump on board.

Where I stay when I'm in Scotland is beautiful, isn't it? No matter the light, no matter the angle. Beautiful.

An amazing piece featuring my friend @faejohnstone.bsky.social! www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

DELETE IT and pass it on !!
