Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

It's not complicated. They're just trying to stop women from being able to vote.

Hey, post-secondary students! Don’t forget that you can vote by mail or do advanced voting during Reading Week if you’ll be back home!! Find out where and how to vote here: www.elections.on.ca/en/voting-in...

At this point, I'm just going to survive out of spite.

This is an absolute critical read this morning. An abbreviated version drops in Rolling Stone shortly. Encourage everyone to understand exactly how mandatory it is that Musk and his minions are removed from the Bureau of Fiscal Service. www.crisesnotes.com/elon-musk-wa...

Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.

I’m trying hard to move out of broligarchy social media, but I need to round out my world here. So far I’ve connected with a lot of the journos & pundits, but that means my feed is just a Firehose of Awful. I need comedians, puppy breaks, fluff. Please to recommend.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

"Both Jim Crow and the Final Solution relied on systemized governmental oppression and societal blindness, a mass unwillingness to acknowledge the truth of what was taking place and mobilize to stop it."

While we watch the creeping malevolence taking over downstairs, know that we have an opportunity to stop it from happening here, now. Urge everyone you know to vote - don’t let this grifter sail in on apathy once again.

This is worth your time. I witnessed early effects of Orban in Budapest 2013, a march of far-right extremists - shocking both in size & the boldness of NotC imagery - on the Dohaňy Synagogue. 1/2 The Orbanisation of America: Hungary’s lessons for Donald Trump: ecfr.eu/publication/...

UM, I had NO idea facebook was tracking everything I did on the internet. EVERYTHING. I have diligently blocked and followed all ways to try to stop this messed up social media from taking from me, but this is the final straw… THESE JERKS! AGH! [screenshots on how to do it in the comments]

Meta is now state run media.
