I remember when the US first popularized the term "rogue state" to describe belligerant, dangerous countries that refuse to comply with international obligations. Little did I know it would turn out to be us.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

One colossal problem with concentrating so much of what matters in the hands of big private companies is that a fascist like Trump can force them to heel, and then we all suffer the consequences.

Was trying to remember why I had mentally bookmarked him and it was because last summer Colombian tabloids spread a rumor he was having an affair with Linda Yepes, a transgender newscaster. Not only did he refuse to deny it but decried transphobia as akin to Nazism

(1,4) This Monday January 20th was 6 years since the unveiling of Jaime's tomb stone. It was also the Presidential inauguration of the current White House participant. Because of what happened to Jaime, I immediately began fighting to do something about gun violence.

Just have to say that the $Trump meme coin is a gift to all of us who are not fans of his. It’s just a matter of time until a lot of people lose money from this. I’m a crypto fan. This is not crypto any more than Madoff was just buying and selling shares of stock

One thing before tomorrow: Use your local libraries. Get your card. Borrow books, manga, films, audios, ebooks. Recommend titles for purchase (usually online). Attend promoted activities. Fill out those "How are we doing?" questionnaires. Tell your kids that libraries are good. They are. 📚

The TikTok ban (soon to be lifted) is a gift to Trump. It allows him to signal to businesses that he controls their on-off switch. That’s the message of dictators.
