If you post or repost gAI imagery, I will unfollow you. It is anti-human anti-environment and pro-oligarchy. We need to do far better.

To all the people who stop and think before meeting up with a chronically ill or disabled person, and let them know you/someone in your household isn’t feeling well, so they can cancel if they need to, THANK YOU. We are SO sad to have to cancel, but so grateful to be protected. #disabilitysky

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

🆙 There is boost of spirit in our Ukrainian social networks right now, people are calling to unite together, as it was in 2022. 🇪🇺🤝🇺🇦 It is time for Ukraine and Europe to UNITE, maybe this is our last chance… And thanks to all Americans who still support Ukraine! 🇺🇸🙏

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

Be clear about what’s happening: Trump and his administration, and thus America, is siding with Putin and Russia against a United States ally.

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Does this qualify as an emergency yet or should we check the polling in swing districts first

What Donald Trump is allowing Elon Musk and his DOGE team to do is not an audit. It is a coup. This an incredibly dangerous moment—and it is all the more dangerous if people don’t understand what is happening. https://youtu.be/jrE0DOEcbRE

I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir here, but if even if you're not an artist, that goofy meme idea in your head will be a thousand times funnier if you just do a crappy drawing of it yourself vs using generative A.I.

Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine. Nothing about Europe without Europe.

A.I. is a tool of oppression & erasure. Please stop enriching oligarchs by using it for your Blue Resistance memes. Just draw stick figures & use alt-text.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

They’re doing project 2025, just like we said they would

Ukraine war briefing: Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine, say European ministers

🚨 Trump & Elon Musk illegally revoked $80 MILLION in congressionally appropriated FEMA funds from NYC’s bank account yesterday—money previously disbursed for shelter & services—says NYC Comptroller Brad Lander. Lander is demanding that the state pursue legal action. Statement:

This is your daily reminder that it's a coup.

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

If you're going to get your feelings hurt when disabled people tell you directly but not rudely that what you're doing is hurting them, ask you to use better language, and tell you their support needs (or any other aspects of their disability) aren't your business, you're not a good ally.

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.
