I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

If you're trying to figure out what to do right now, my advice is to just pick a thing that you think might be useful in some way, however small, and do it. Doing a thing leads you to doing another, bigger thing, and prepares you for that next thing.

@schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social There are ALREADY laws against it! They are criminals who don't care about more laws. You are not DOING anything.

Ok romance authors, let’s do this. If you have a 2025 release coming out (or it just came out), promo it in the form of an AITA post. And please, if you can, drop a buy link or a GR link. Let’s topple some TBR piles.

If you are interested in wildland fire, you read everything Stephen Pyne (@sjpyne.bsky.social) writes. Here's his take on the LA fires: "The core question is one of rate and scale: the risks are widening and quickening faster than society's responses." www.stephenpyne.com/blog/posts/4...
