Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.

I can't tell you how invigorating and inspiring and hopeful it is to be in a crowd of people who also care. Took a group of teens to the last big protest and they were most struck by no longer feeling alone. If you're able to go, I encourage you to try. Get a group of friends & go together.

Hit the streets tomorrow. Be nonviolent. Be joyfully defiant. Be defiantly joyful. Ridicule him. Condemn fascism. Oppose I.C.E. Affirm diversity. Embody America. Love your neighbor. Refuse to be intimidated. Be safe. Be loud. Be encouraged. #NoKingsDay

“I’m am invoking my right to remain silent and I am invoking my right to have an attorney present.” Then you shut the fuck up.

The "No Kings" organizers say that there are more than 1,800 protests planed for tomorrow.: www.nokings.org We'll have journalists at several of them, but you can tag @motherjones.com with your clips and tips.

I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting an article to Bluesky while not posting it to Twitter, and the results are staggeringly positive because that’s all you should be doing by now stop using it already.

There are now more than 2000 #NoKings events scheduled for all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, Guam and about a dozen foreign countries. RSVPs are skyrocketing, which is particularly worth noting because a lot of people are very understandably dead set against RSVPing. We will not back down.

I finally ran out of Audible credits, so I canceled the account and signed up for @libro.fm instead. I recommend you do the same! Not only do they share their profits with the local bookstore of your choice, but they pay better royalties to authors too.

My strong instinct is that Trump's threats against Americans' first amendment right to peaceably assemble is going to massively juice attendance at Saturday's protests. www.nokings.org

Honestly social media has been so much better since I adopted "don't engage, just block" as a strategy. Also I find I get much less angry when the dickheads show up. I just go, "oh, troll, right," and immediately block them, no change in blood pressure and I've forgotten they exist seconds later.
