These women didn’t sit down, stay quiet, or ask for permission—they broke the rules and changed the world. Role models. We should add Bishop Mariann Budde to the list.

Much like my running list at work of things people have done w/o getting fired, I'm starting a list of Maga "Christians" actions in case they're allowed past the pearly gates and I'm left waiting. IMO atheists have a better chance than those asshats.

Trump ordered the National Institutes of Health to cancel their review panels on cancer research. If you or someone you know has cancer, heart disease, diabetes, or one of many countless illnesses that needs a cure — this could have devastating effects.

Buy banned/challenged books not so much for yourselves, but for young people who lose access to them in their school libraries and classrooms. Encourage them to read and discuss the books with you.

Donald Trump is trying to rename the Gulf of Mexico to distract you from the fact that he can’t lower egg prices, pardoned 1,500 insurrectionists, and rolled back policies that reduced prescription drug costs. Don’t let him.

RESIST. Don't quit. Don't stop fighting. Don't obey in advance. Don't stop calling them out. Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can. Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone. Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight. RESIST.

Currently torn between refusing to watch inauguration coverage and the curiosity of what a shit show it might be. I'm also daydreaming what a celebration it would be if T Swift released Reputation TV at the exact minute the inauguration starts. I need something to distract me on this dark day.

Donald Trump will be indoors for the inauguration with his billionaire pals. His core supporters will be left outside in the cold. Think about that.
