We're walking right into it. No one appears to have any idea how to stop it. We know where it's headed. Martial law. The end of democracy. No more elections. A waking nightmare. I promise to amplify anyone offering legal, workable solutions. I haven't found any yet. And the left is leaderless.

I’m just imagining the withering looks that Greta Thunberg is giving her Israeli captors, after they took her hostage. Only the far right Israeli regime would be stupid enough to engage in piracy & illegally arrest an international heroine. #FreeGreta

I just watched Ocean with David Attenborough. If you can see this documentary, please do. It was heartbreaking but also demonstrated hope. This scene really moved me. You can almost see the fear & resignation in the shark's eye. Our fates are intertwined. We can change our future & we must.

I wish I could find images of the bruises my partner had the day after getting shot with "rubber" bullets. Bright purple rings the size of dinner plates. Just astonishing damage. The hematoma one of them left never healed. And that was fired from a distance of like 30 yards

I need to find that Victorian-era cartoon of a wealthy dinner party being interrupted by a fist appearing through the floor, and there is seen under the floor the poor who are propping up the rich. Help?
