The reply email inbox for this “what did you do last week” email is [email protected], so, you know, definitely don’t send them any unrelated messages that would interfere with their ability to carry out Elon’s dumbass bullshit

seven words every girl wants to hear

Our new site is live! Find protests in your area or create your own. Learn about the criminal actions of Musk and Doge. How Musk’s wealth is tied to his stake in Tesla. How Tesla is a massive offender of pollution and bad labor practices. Go to TeslaTakedown.com to get informed and get involved!

riding a daily roller coaster like we can do it we can do it we can do it oh no wait brace here it comes despaiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr fuck ok we can do it we can do it

I've never seen so many mobilizations, rallies and actions, honestly. They're happening pretty constantly, in cities but also in small towns and in every single state. They're not getting tons of coverage, but they're happening, and they're growing. Join one, or start one, you're not alone in this.

It’s actually not common and if you can’t research and write your own copy without relying on generative software gtfo of the industry

but my understanding was that in their dialect that's a compliment

Today we received a stop work order on the services we provide to detained immigrant children, including Know Your Rights presentations and legal education.

Here’s how many billions Elon Musk’s companies are making from U.S. taxpayers

here's what I can tell you about IQ -- men who argue over it are people who I would not trust to run a simple errand, they'd get lost on their way to the driveway

can’t believe we’re working this hard to save a democracy that includes a thing called vote-a-rama

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

I keep seeing people just do something they think maybe would be helpful and watching that snowball and it's just amazing. Don't wait for permission, don't wait to be invited. Pick something you think needs to happen and that you can do, and do that thing.

some zoom meetings used to be phone calls but some were meetings that you traveled 20 minutes each way to, paused to politely accept or decline a coffee, maybe a pastry, and you might do more than one of those meetings a day, so anyway that's why I think the workday should now end at 3

this is the best diagnosis of the behavior I've been encountering on here lately. these people think I'm a facebook page! I'm not a page, I'm a guy!

spent a lot of time preparing to handle peer pressure to do drugs that no one ever offered me and am now completely unprepared for all the peer pressure I’m under to get an air fryer

The Republican plan is to save you money by getting rid of your rent and mortgage payments because you’re homeless now and the billionaires got your house.

you know what's a fun word? regicide.

The sentiment that former presidential candidates "warned us" is such weird fandom shit. Oh they warned us by saying their opponent for president shouldn't be president? Incredible foresight

i miss luigi.

People are pushing back on this but he's right. The sledgehammer that has been destroying our institutions for the last 50 years did not and could not spare the Democratic party or Congress itself. This fight has to be waged at the state and local level.

no more breaking news, put it back together

they might play sports in philadelphia but they dont play games

New from 404 Media: a Musk ally has demanded administrative access to Notify.gov, a system that lets the government text the public. The access would give them large swathes of the publics' personal data too. A worker has resigned in protest rather than give access www.404media.co/musk-ally-de...

Just a thank you to everyone who contributed -- we raised $235 and have a lot of requests from the unhoused community for tarps to secure their tents, so we'll be starting there and then purchasing sternos (again, at their request) ❤️

hey so sorry, i'm going to be 10 minutes late to our zoom call, my mental breakdown is running over

This is my “daughter of a Black Panther breakfast program volunteer” coming out but anyone who tells you that you have to be public about all your resistance activity should immediately be under suspicion for being an op, or being under the influence of an op

Not my Presidents’ Day protest -/ more people than last time, well over 500 already

I know there are a lot of calls for aid and action, but in case you're looking -- a group I've organized is raising funds to purchase cold weather gear and tents for the unhoused population in Harrisburg, PA. You can venmo any donations to Hannah (Venmo: thecharmingbarber) to contribute

I will say again: The destruction of the CFPB—an agency that has brought in $20 billion over a little more than a decade despite having an annual budget that's less than what DOD has spent so far today—is the clearest sign none of this has anything to do with saving taxpayers money.

LinkedIn keeps sending me excited emails saying people have noticed me this week and I'm starting to think LinkedIn and I have very different goals.
