We made it another day! Go out and do good in the world or do something good for yourself. Avoid doing bad for the world or for yourself. Repeat tomorrow.

We are going to get through this one way or another. Let’s do it in a way that we support the weakest and most vulnerable. Power is not the goal. Love is the goal.

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮 #SlavaUkraine 🇺🇦

Love anyway. Be kind anyway. Support diversity, equity, and inclusion anyway. Resist anyway. Do not change who you are because of the hate in the world. Love anyway.

Elon Musk fancies himself some kind of maverick technologist superhero. But he’s no Tony Stark. He’s PHONY Stark. He’s the one the Avengers defeat at the end of the movie.

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

I sincerely hope you are having a beautiful and peaceful day. You are important. You are worthy. You are loved. Hang in there. Times are tough, but you’re not alone. We’ve got this.

Amen to that.

One day (this time) next Friday 2/28/25 Small businesses - yes Local businesses - yes Publicly traded businesses - no Big businesses - no

Firing 7000 IRS agents will make it even easier for the rich to get away with skirting what they owe. But it's also a gift to the multi-billion dollar tax prep industry. Fewer IRS agents to help you file your taxes means more money in the pockets of companies like TurboTax.

What are you doing to help today?

Thanks to all who boldly share the truth without fear of offending others. Our society is falling apart, and now is not the time for being "nice" and likable. The most kind and loving action is to speak the truth.

How’s everybody doing today? Sleep well? Have a good cup of coffee? Laughed hard at something? What did you do today to rest up and strengthen yourself for the future? Let’s hear about it and maybe inspire each other with our small actions.

Love>hate. Do not give up. Do not give in. Resist. Speak up. Call your congresspeople. Protest. Spend your money with businesses that support DEI & don’t support oligarchs. Talk to your friends & neighbors about your beliefs. Do *something* every single day that will make our world better.

We wake up. We do good things. We love each other. We don’t give in and we don’t give up.

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

This was one of RFK Jr.’s first orders after being sworn in. Just an astonishing denial of science and will cause so much pain to the 45 million Americans facing mental health challenges.

Trump is reportedly looking to shrink the FDIC and consolidate it into other govt agencies. The FDIC was created during the Depression to protect bank deposits. This would come after Trump and DOGE shuttered the CFPB, which protects us from financial fraud. See the pattern?

Maybe they don’t realize how many people will be unemployed. Maybe they don’t realize how many people will lose their homes. Maybe they don’t realize how many farmers will have to sell their farms. Maybe they don’t realize how many lives will be lost. Or maybe they do realize all of that.

Have YOU called today? I just did and left messages with the offices of Lauren Boebert, John Hickenlooper, and Michael Bennet.

I called and left messages for my congresspeople today. Have you?

Yesterday the things going on in the US got to me. I was kind of numb, not knowing what to do next. I needed to rest. Not a physical rest, a mental one. I dunno if I'm rested up yet, but it's a new day. I am brave. I am strong. I am resilient. I love. Rest up. We are in this for the long haul.

I called my congresspeople this morning. Have you called yours?

"Like" this post after you have contacted your congresspeople today by phone, email, or letter.

Trump's handling of this situation should be treated as one of the biggest scandals in presidential history. There is blood on his hands.

You are strong. You are caring. You are smart. You change your mind when presented with better information. You care for the earth and her inhabitants as if they were your own family. You are a badass. You will be remembered for your upstanding morals and ethics and for your capacity to love.

This!!!

I imagined that I could feel the humanity, the souls, of the people who stood there in fear waiting to die. I imagined I heard them crying through the expanse of time, crying for someone to hear their pleas. I felt them there. We must not let it happen ever again. 2/2

Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. When I was 16 I was fortunate enough to visit the Dachau concentration camp memorial. I saw the barracks, the chambers, the guard towers, the barbed wire, the piles of shoes. 1/2

My income does not define me. My possessions do not define me. My country does not define me. My “president” does not define me. My heart defines me and my actions show my heart.

If you are a federal employee, it is advised to set your social media accounts to private to prevent outside viewership, as reports suggest that loyalty screenings have begun.

Egg prices hit record highs this week. Much of the increase is the result of egg shortages brought on by avian flu. How has Trump responded? By ordering public health agencies to cease communications with the public. His presidency is a threat to our health and our wallets.

You are strong as hell. You will not let the fear of their hate win. You will not let any fear win. You are not alone and we will all make sure that love and tolerance wins in the end. Love is stronger than fear. 2/2

Don't let the bad news every day overwhelm you into thinking that you are not strong. You are brave. You are a badass. You will use your knowledge to make the best decisions for you and your loved ones. 1/2

FYI if you “liked” the previous administration’s pages on Facebook, Meta has rolled it over to the new administration. Imagine me liking the new administration. 🙄 I have unfollowed, unliked, and just for grins blocked them. That was a jerky thing to do, Meta.

‘Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.’ — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. On #MLKDay, we honor his legacy by choosing love over hate, justice over injustice, and hope over fear.

Ya know, if we all have to work a job (or 2 or 3) just to barely scrape by while hoping we don’t have any medical issues that cause us to go bankrupt, we can’t really protest or organize too much.

I will always fight for the rights of all people no matter their race, color, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, or president.
