Musk is a Parasite. It must be removed if the body of America is to survive.

MAGA = NAZI It's the same ideology of hate: Hatred of minorities, LGBT, non-Christians, immigrants, the disabled, and political opponents. MAGA is a fascist cult. They hate anyone who is different, and it will lead to bloodshed again if we don't stop Orange Hitler. www.reddit.com/r/AmericanFa...

I recently decided to assemble some of the photographs that I have taken in recent years on a new site called SmugMug. I'm still in the very beginning phases of learning how to take very fine pictures, display and market them. https://rubymorales.smugmug.com/

My first Pinksky post. There's a saying that there's a "pink cloud" feeling when things are good. Let's start here.

Information wants to be free. #ALA #IntellectualFreedom

An extinction burst is a temporary increase in the intensity, duration, or frequency of a behavior when it no longer results in a reward. It's a part of the process of extinction and is a component of operant conditioning. Don't capitulate. History has a long memory. #resist #extinctionburst

My first protest meme, inspired by the Substack post by #ohhthatsrich on the coming "Extinction Burst" video(s) that went viral. substack.com/@ohhthatsric... #ExtinctionBurst

A Meta AI (machine generated) summary of a comment section discussing Leon Umsk.

This kid knows how to #protest. Stopped by the #Minnesota State Capitol for today's protest and snapped some pics. More to come. #photography #art #nikon #blackandwhitephotography #blackandwhite #streetphotography #urbanphotography #democracy #resist #stopthecoup #mlk

Is it possible that the result of all this chaos, public outage is that something new and good will emerge? Will we find a moral compass? #ohthatsrich open.substack.com/pub/ohhthats...

Just calling it like I see it.

Some federally funded community health centers — which serve rural areas with limited access to medical care — are still unable to access grant funding and are shutting down because of Trump's spending freeze. We are witnessing an attack on America's most vulnerable people.

We’re focused on feeding our kids. Investing in our schools. Making sure child care is affordable. Regardless of the chaos unfolding in Washington, we’re making Minnesota the best state for kids to grow up.

With our emerging mass protest, ethical boycotts, rejection of consumerism, collectivism, development of mutual aid organizations, it may be instructive to review past practices of non-violent action originated by the hippie movement 75 years ago. medium.com/the-phoenix-...

The US White House wargaming with the citizens of its own country is such a neat way for 334.9 Million Americans to learn about how the functions of government are real. I wonder how much of this was designed by AI? #Resist

@brianjordanalvarez is a rising star. What do we know about this enigmatic working class hero, model, comedian and actor with the ultra expressive face and body? Todo eso y habla español. #astarisborn

I'm helping recording artist @michaelolivola.bsky.social with his socials, photos and promos. Michael is new here as of 1/29/2025. If you are interested in connecting with his music or the classical/jazz scene in Seattle, give him a follow.

Like honestly the only way we're gonna get through this is to cultivate an unrealistically positive vibe to carry us through because a big part of resisting shock and awe is not giving into despair Giving into despair is worse than being cringe

Although we live in a post-scarcity world, as in 2020-23, supply chains are likely to be disrupted as human manual labor creates the products we consume/use. Remember food is perishable, so remember to share your surplus with those in need. #mutualaid is a form of direct action. #resistance.

"La Máscara Naranja" (The Orange Mask) Is another clever euphemism I just saw for the first time.
