BREAKING: Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier released from prison after nearly 50 years

I just planned meals for the next week and did grocery shopping for less than $100. Feeling productive and prepared for the week ahead. Tonight is Pork Chop Suey and I’m going to make my stroke survivor husband help me make it. Anything to help him engage and feel productive himself. #TinyJoys

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

One of my neurodivergent daughters, who likes to get up in the middle of the night and unlock doors, has had her nightly adventure and left deadbolts locked. She also only turned on 3 lights leaving this Mama to believe we may be making progress towards impulse control on this front. #TinyJoys

When your Libre2 tells you your Blood Sugar is low, does this mean it’s time for Oreos? Is it real or just a faulty sensor. Things to ponder.

This!

Just trapping me a kitten over here

When MAGA watches Saving Private Ryan, are they rooting for the Germans?

Viewing disabled people as inferior not only strips them of their humanity but also reflects a profound ignorance of the contributions they make every day. We must challenge these harmful perceptions and embrace the worth and dignity of all people. #Disability #SDGs #HumanRights #a11y

People always believe they will be the exception to disability and chronic illness There will be a cure when it’s their turn. They will try hard enough and get better They can’t accept that many things have no cure. It’s no one’s fault. Most people will face disability at some point in their lives

In the wealthiest nation on earth, 25% of seniors should not be living on $15,000 a year or less. We should EXPAND Social Security, not cut it. I will soon be introducing legislation to significantly raise Social Security benefits and extend the solvency of the program.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

BREAKING — I've confirmed the DOGE staffers at SSA. They are Marko Elez (who was previously fired for racist posts and then reinstated), Ethan Shaotran, Nikhil Rajpal, and Gautier Cole-Killian. This is per Social Security Works, a non-profit working to protect/expand Social Security.

A quick resistance task: 1. Google Gulf of Mexico 2. “Gulf of America" is the top 3. Click on the three little dots to the right of it 4. Select "Send Feedback" 5. Click on "Gulf Of America" 6. Select "Inaccurate content" 7. Select "Incorrect" and type in "The correct name is “Gulf of Mexico"

remember how during lockdown, we declared 7pm was “we all scream out our windows all at once” time can we bring that back, I am getting really tired holding all this screaming in my heart

Looking to talk with federal employees with disabilities who were terminated this weekend, especially folks hired through Schedule A or disabled veterans. Please boost! #disability #journorequest

That moment when Alt Text ceases to become a chore and becomes a gift of descriptive language to all who read it. When you realize the opportunity to write alt text is actually an opportunity to exercise your own brain and creativity. #tinyjoys #alttext #disabilities #writing

A beautiful morning bus stop sight. The photo didn’t capture it well enough though. #TinyJoys

I keep thinking of this quote from the Great Gatsby: 
“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Rereading the Declaration of Independence—for a @skeuomorphpress.org project idea—& I’m struck by this item in the list of the king’s "injuries and usurpations": "He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance"

In the midst of the hell that is my country these days - I still can cook, I still have food in my freezer & fridge & pantry. I can still feed my family this week. I have to count my blessings because who knows what tomorrow will bring? #TinyJoys #HomeCooking #CookingSky

We must make it clear to Trump and his maga cult—no cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security—EVER. Send your letters here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Respect‼️

UKRAINE = GOOD RUSSIA = BAD USA = STUPID AF

THIS!!! I want ruthless, cunning obstruction. Shut the government down. Force MAGA to stop the nonsense. We are not helpless. They can't pass the budget without raising the debt ceiling. Dems should REFUSE to go along. Being in the minority never stopped Republicans. This is a WAR FFS

Elon Musk fired Twitter employees and Twitter crashed. Elon Musk fired FAA employees and planes crashed. Not a quick learner.

Call it a heist, call it a coup, but please stop calling it a constitutional crisis. Aside from being useless as an explainer to anyone who doesn't understand the legalities, it severely downplays the danger in what is happening.

At an elementary school at Fort Campbell in Kentucky, home of the 101st Airborne, librarians are scrubbing the shelves. They are removing books that even contain references to slavery or the civil rights movement. This is where "anti DEI" sentiment has brought us. They are whitewashing history.

THIS THIS THIS👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻💙

IEPs are DEI. 504s are DEI. Ramps for wheelchairs are DEI. English language services are DEI. www.scrippsnews.com/us-news/educ...

I have wanted to learn a little bit of the Czech language ever since I was little and found out my paternal grandmother was full Czech whose parents immigrated from Prague. Thanks to #Duolingo I now know 35 words in Czech. It’s not intuitive for me at all! Super hard! #TinyJoys #Language

Getting to spend an afternoon/evening with my oldest and their husband and enjoying dinner together as a family. #TinyJoys

This is not the country I want, not the country many of us want. So many of us worked so hard for Harris and are still reeling from the complete loss of our country.

Seeing the first wave of #unemployment coming from Trump and Musk up close and personal with friends who worked at #USAID How is this America First again?

Happy Valentine’s Day 💗 to everyone, but especially, to the 🏳️‍⚧️ and 🏳️‍🌈 community. We love you. 🫶🏻
