Thank you @democracynow.org for elevating the voices of people living their lives driven by love for other people and the planet (vs. money and power).

It took about 24 hours for the post-Elon-tweet fear to move through my body and for me to get back into fight mode. Also, having a badass lawyer helps. I will not be silent in the face of personal attacks and attacks on the #TeslaTakedown movement. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It’s terrifying to be in Elon Musk’s crosshairs. I’ve spent the last 48 hours dealing with the aftermath of these tweets. Everything he has said about me and Troublemakers is an outright lie. The right to protest is at the heart of American democracy. Join a #TeslaTakedown protest. ✊❤️

I chatted with Scott @podcastgreenred.bsky.social about @teslatakedown.com. Have a listen! bit.ly/41htNce

Furious at Musk and his minions for their lawlessness & destruction? Join us at Tesla Seattle TOMORROW. Tesla is Elon's cash machine, and his main source of power. The stakes couldn’t be higher. No one else is coming to fix this. #TeslaTakedown #BoycottTesla #MuskOut

Made my first caga tío. In Cataluña, children will sing a song and beat the log, and it will poop out sweets. Since I can't easily get turrones in Seattle I'll have to find an alternative. Maybe those almond rocas??

Here are some helpful comparisons highlighting the disparity between Elon Musk’s wealth and the median American income. You ready for this? 🫣😵‍💫😵🤯 👇👇👇👇👇

In 80s and 90s Seattle had its own late night show, Almost Live. I just discovered tonight that King 5 has put over 100 episodes on YouTube. Lots of references to places and people that are gone but lots is still relevant (and the occasional cringe). youtube.com/playlist?lis...

We're getting hit by a bomb cyclone tomorrow in the PNW. I don't think I should worry but maybe I should?

I want to see more discussion of pluriversalism in the US social movement spaces. It's a concept that emphasizes the coexistence of multiple, diverse ways of knowing, being, and organizing the world. We have multiple pluriverses in the US--we need to accept that. Otherwise it stinks of superiority.

maybe i'll post here more than i did on all the other platforms. i hear y'all are much nicer.
