I wrote my latest book about the precise days in which we find ourselves. It's about deciding what matters to you, choosing your hills worth dying and, and fighting for what you love. Get a signed copy here: pavlovitzdesign.com/products/a-s...

If you can't donate, that's fine. If you can't volunteer, that's fine. If you can't protest, that's fine. But you can stop shopping for just one day—today, February 28th. Buy nothing. Absolutely nothing!

I binged the live action Avatar: The Last Airbender with @obs0lescence.bsky.social. I'd give it like a 7/10. It's not the animated series (which is my #1 show) but it was a fun companion piece.

Here’s the hard truth: this country’s people are tired of subsidizing billionaires. Want your cars to sell? Do it without subsidies. Want to shoot rockets into space? Get by without govt contracts. Want to build a website? Build your own internet first. We are DONE with you.

You think you want an autocratic because you think he will be your autocrat. You think he hates the people he made you hate so that you would give him power. You think he is on your side. He is only on his side. He hates whoever gets in the way of what he wants. And someday, that will be you.

Books are weapons in the war of ideas.

Banned/challenged books are often difficult reads with jarring content, but we can't shield ourselves nor our children from the realities of the world forever - it's better to build empathy and understanding through books, especially by reading books by/about marginalized people.

Hey guys…only two people get to determine what ‘the law’ is…and one of em signed that into ‘law’. Folks, it’s a full-on coup and it’s happening in front of your faces every day.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

Make your calls. Go to your town halls. Ask your state and local officials what they are doing under state and local law. Rest. Hydrate. Make soup for the hungry. Don’t let people tell you that you’re doing it wrong. Not a sprint. Not a marathon. A relay. Find your team. Thank you.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Yes think about how judges are supposed to decide if things the president does are constitutional, and why the richest man in the world who just bought the election might not be into that.
