I know folks are concerned & upset about the transition but PLEASE prepare yourself & your household for what’s coming. We only had the Dotard for 1 yr of the pandemic last time. This time it’s at least 4 yrs of incompetence. Nothing will get better on his watch. www.11alive.com/article/news...

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory This should have been Time’s Person of the Year, not the felon and dictator wannabe they chose. I will never look at another Time Magazine. NEVER!

One of the lessons of the last month is that great wealth cannot buy courage but it can reveal cowardice.

::Sigh:: Once more for the people in the back. If audiobooks don’t count as reading, then braille isn’t reading either. Stop gatekeeping literacy.

Fair warning: I'm a low-road democrat. This account will pursue the relentless mockery of fascists, and a willingness to urge leaders to break norms for the sake of democracy. And cat pictures.

Ben Wikler gets it! @benwikler.bsky.social His clarity on why Democrats must get relentless in messaging, take action, and meet people where they are is exactly what we need. This segment sounds good to me. What’s your take?

It would be good if senators from both parties started getting a lot of calls and emails requesting proper FBI background checks for all cabinet appointees, and for Kash Patel not to be confirmed under any circumstances. Many in the GOP are not comfortable with this either. Let them hear from you.

My mother sent @jamellebouie.net's column from this morning around the family. At 91, she can take comfort if not in the election, in Douglass's speech as a reminder that there has been historical resistance to American authoritarianism. Thank you, sir.

A powerful and timely quote from On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder: “The time to show courage is when the moment of crisis still seems unimaginable.” This reminds us to act early and decisively to protect democracy and resist authoritarianism before it becomes entrenched.

Democrats are just incredibly, self-defeatingly bad about challenging their too-old members. Multiple members ran for re-election this year despite being visibly ailing. One (Bill Pascrell) died after the primary - he was seeking a new term at age 87.

Going through depression after the election, wading through the X cesspool, then coming to a warm post election greeting at Bluesky feels a bit like George Bailey getting all the love at the end of "It's a Wonderful Life."
