I need to do something within my power to help. So I am offering this 16"x24" hand painted glowing Space Whale for sale to raise money for the #ACLU. Check it out at www.patreon.com/Numberism Description of the numbers in the comments. #Sciart #resist #patreon

Save the date for a “romantic” evening of Date Night themed trivia (a Dork Night tradition). Come on down to Calapooia Brewing on 2/11 for a night of trivia you won’t soon forget. Trivia begins at 6PM! #albanyoregon #trivia #pubtrivia #bartrivia #valentine #valentinesday

@dorknighttrivia.bsky.social what dates are trivia for February? Just seeing if my calendar has space to plan for either!

So much evil.

We need to stop thinking trump is the problem. It is much, much deeper than that and involves people much smarter and more dangerous than that fool.

Costco has everything you need....

I’m telling everyone: Do not open the door or say a word unless you’re expecting someone and know exactly who it is. Know your rights. Pass these around…

If CBS settles this BS case, the money they pay Trump will pale in comparison to the drop in ratings they will experience.

There is only one reason Trump pulled the security off Pompeo and Bolton…to put them in danger for “crossing him.” To send a message to anyone else who would oppose. Both have active death threats from Iran. All to intimidate. This is the opposite of a real man of God. This is evil

You have to be equal parts batshit insane and a heartless idiotic fuck to stop cancer research. I can't even keep up with all of the horrible shit, damn.

It is weird, or at least very symptomatically adhd to have more certainty and confidence in who I am in these politically frightening times than I’ve ever been before - while I’m dreading the coming age I’m also more at peace with whatever stand I need to take than I could ever have imagined.

Trump just undid the only good thing GWB did in his entire 8 years.

To hell with ICE.

These days will kill you if you’re not careful. As we walk headlong into this Category 5 sh*t storm that is a second Trump term, one thing is irrefutably clear already: it’s going to be much worse than we thought. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/radical-se...

Do one thing every day to help someone currently in harms way. Learn how to identify and protect neighbours from ICE agents. Stand up for the LGBTQ+ community. Wear a mask in solidarity with the disabled community. Learn about anti-Blackness and commit to doing better. Don’t let hate win.

Representative Andy Ogles, Republican of Tennessee, has filed a resolution to amend the constitutional term limit for presidents from two terms to three, though only if a president’s first two terms were non-consecutive.

Transgender people exist… … unlike MAGA Christians.

I think it’s really important we identify the companies that are doing the right thing and reward them with our business.

Discovering this guy just hanging out in the wee hours of the morning was a little moment of unexpected silliness in these heavy days of being an American. Hold on to the moments.

I believe the general internet tradition on these kinds of things is well known. techcrunch.com/2023/04/21/m...

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

You won't believe this. My team and I make this show called SciShow that works hard to be rigorous and accurate while also being appealing and entertaining. We reach a LOT of people every year with episodes about crabs and neutrinos and gender and cancer and vaccines. It's great, I love it.

Worth a bookmark. The AP is tracking Trumps campaign promises and what movements have been made where, categorized. Professional journalists are equipped to navigate this. Mostly. Stuff like this saves you from the bluster.

The plan was always to flood the zone with shit. Not everyone can respond to every outrage. That's on purpose. But no need to get mad at someone for focusing on stuff *you* don't think is important. Let everyone focus on what they want to focus on.

Odd that big British and French and Irish and Israeli news organizations have already posted stories on this, but not yet the @nytimes.com or @washingtonpost.com.

Don’t look away. This is happening right in front of us, in broad daylight. We have the fight of our lives in front of us AS AMERICANS. We are not overreacting. Silence is compliance. Silence is complicitness. REACT.

The way forward is the same as it’s always been - organize your neighborhood, your household, your workplace. Nobody is coming to save us except ourselves. Look out for one another.

History is so much more fun when it's in the past.

Positivity, kindness, and earnestness are about to be even more punk af.

💯

Last time Trump was president I was stressed the whole time and I can’t live like that again, so this time I’m gonna be deranged
