A recreational pilot friend said he will no longer fly. He feels it is unsafe.

I predicted we were headed for civil war back in 2016. Everyone said I was crazy. I’m still saying it but people don’t think I’m quite so crazy anymore.

I admire both Sassoon and the other prosecutors but also fear that it makes room for more loyalists. 😢

I’m struggling. I have limited my news intake to 10 minutes a day, just the highlights. But I live in Portugal and am being inundated with requests for help on how to leave the US. 😢

I am an American living in Portugal. I am getting flooded with calls, especially from trans people who’s passports may no longer be valid. They are terrified 😢

I don’t know if the actual election was rigged, but yes Project 2025 and Trump’s website clearly stated what they would do in the first 100 days…and that is exactly what they are doing. They were very clear on their intent but American voters did not believe them

I live in Portugual and EU doesn’t seem to be having issues with H5N1. Eggs prices are the same as ever (about 3€ a dozen). Better controls and government oversight. The thing Trump is removing in the USA 😢

I don’t have a ton of money, but I diversified any stock to EU. and bought CDs with my life savings/retirement the day after he took office. Paid off all my credit cards and canceled any purchases beyond basic need. And I am not even in the USA!

The orange felon also fired 3000 air traffic controllers 8 days ago. This preventable tragedy is totally his fault.

Im realistic. I grew up subsistence living. It is HARD. And it is unrealistic to think 350 million Americans can grow enough food on their balcony to sustain them

I remember the marches during his first term. Lots of people I know marched who did not vote 😡. If you did not vote in your state elections, for your congress, then you are part of the problem. Protest all you want, but VOTE!

I loved on a farm. We had 1/2 acre garden, chickens, and my ex would shout 1-2 deer a year. We traded with neighbors for honey and goat cheese. We STILL made a weekly run to the grocery. Oh, and my ex did not work but spent all his time working the farm.

Try going one week eating only food you grew and report back. Sure, you have raspberry bushes…what about wheat, dairy, eggs, milk, beans….
