Drawing ideas for future rebuilding from here.

Wondering why you're not seeing the American people's rising up across the country? Because suppression of information is what the 5 dictators across the world want. We're here. We're getting loud. We're getting rowdy. We're not backing down.🇺🇸🏴‍☠️ #SheShed #Voices4Victory #DemocracyWarriors

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country. This Friday, where will you be? standupforscience2025.org

I am now hearing from multiple folks in the past two hours (including some who have personally been fired) that mass firings have now commenced within NOAA--including, yes, at the National Weather Service.

"Those that voted for you are not happy with this Trump. You’re sick and unhinged."

The internal comms to trans servicemembers from their resource groups are horrifying.

Law Dork [con't.] Minter: "We will slow this down. We will stop some of it. Every one of those is a huge victory. Even in this hell storm, we are holding our own... We're under attack in a terrifying way, but we still have a lot of power. And how this comes out depends on what we do right now."

The news getting you down? I invite you to stare at this chart of solar and wind deployed capacity in China. They blew past their ambitious 2030 target... last July.

from my @heatmap.news story tonight: emails from the fish and wildlife service’s migratory bird protection office now all apparently have boilerplate language saying… they are not allowed to talk to wind companies. lots o’ news on renewables permitting in this story! heatmap.news/plus/the-fig...

USAID source tells me, "This is so harmful, I can't even explain it." Says the human cost is "shocking", not to mention the "extraordinary" financial cost.

This may not sound shocking, but it is one of the most shocking parts of this coup: why would you shut down all the federal offices unless you're nihilists who've decided we don't need a government? apnews.com/article/trum...

Perfectly captured.

Every time I remember Stephen Miller designed this rush of orders to burn me out specifically I get a new burst of energy from the spite alone. The very thought of my exhaustion giving him an ounce of joy makes me want to burst through walls

FUCK.

trying to strip Native people of their birthright citizenship is a *litmus test* for all of YOU. the regime is testing how far you’ll go when it comes to standing beside Natives for more immediate things. have you looked into Project 2025’s agenda to privatize and sell off National Forest lands?

I have one ask. As a trans, disabled, autistic person I fear for my life in the coming months. I do not expect to survive the Trump Administration. Witness. Do not turn away. Listen to the news. If you can't do something, at least witness. Please share this. And commit to witness.

NEWS: There already have been three Federal Advisory Committee Act lawsuits filed today regarding "DOGE" in federal court in DC: - a @publiccitizen.bsky.social one - a @nationalsecuritylaw.org one - an American Public Health Association one by @democracyforward.bsky.social and @crew.bsky.social

With 3 days left until that rotting husk of evil and bile moves back into the White House, how are you feeling? What is your mood? Are you ready to fight the fascists with everything you’ve got? Or have you given up, like they want you to?

I think it's kinda funny that tons of people migrated here from other platforms but nobody I know is actually posting except one. 🤷‍♀️
