Sometimes you have to choose between different kinds of grieving. In this situation, for example, you can either grieve the loss of family and the loss of the idea that you come from a decent family, OR you can grieve the loss of your own decency, empathy, and self-respect. Choose wisely.

A few days ago, @hlperic.bsky.social and I sat in on a virtual town hall with our rep, @cleaver.house.gov. That had a very different flavor. There was a question about what Congress can do, which he answered, and what we can expect, and then the questions shifted to "what can we do?"

Remember when Al Jeezera Ali Velshi spent every night last year blaming Biden Harris for the Gaza war, using Hamas propaganda to do so? He hasn’t mentioned once that Hamas murdered the kidnapped hostages including a baby 🤷‍♀️

Ok, I'm doing a version of this thread for 🧪 who are new to political conditions where info security is a safety issue: 1. Don't make public lists of people who are engaging in acts of resistance 2. Be weary of calls to advertise acts of subversion 3. Don't live post resistance meetings

This! There is data on here worth looking at. All I will add is that people have been alternately pinning their hopes on and shitting on youth for millennia. People are people. And white people will be racist till we learn not to be. There's no waiting it out.
