If the US blocks access to HRT, ADHD drugs, and SSRIs, I cannot begin to describe to you how much all of the tech sector will screech to a halt. The internet is built and maintained by trans people, people with chronic depression, and the neurodivergent. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I know it’s a lot of doom and gloom and people don’t know where to start so my suggestion is find your neighborhood/close by community fridge. Take when you need and donate when you can. That is something you can do.

My incredible artisan friend @clevrcat.bsky.social made this memorial embroidery portrait of my soul dog, Atticus. My heart is so very full every time I look at it. The detail! The shaggy wisps of hair! She matched his favorite bandana material!!

really grown to appreciate that when a stupid person gets power they do stupid things with that power real kids take over the school energy "and it'll be recess all day, and chocolate milk will come out of the water fountains, and…"

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

The last few weeks have really highlighted just how fragile corporate social media is, and just how beholden to political power it is. To build any sort of ground-up power we must continue to invest in decentralized alternatives that are resistant to intervention www.404media.co/decentralize...

Somehow "Elon Musk Is a Genius" and "Elon Musk Doesn't Know How Hands Work" are being said by a lot of the same people

The point of the firehose of Executive Orders is to disorient and to demobilize. It's to instill maximum fear. If we know this, then that's already half the battle. This means that we have to respond with focus on those most vulnerable & targets. It means we have to refuse their attempt to scare us.

Misinformation is an unintended mistake, while disinformation is an intentional falsehood designed to mislead. The major media orgs that refute Musk’s nazi salute are engaging in disinformation. This is egregious and highly damaging in our present climate and it will get people hurt.

I feel like the important context for RFK, Jr.’s brain worm has been lost: He claimed a worm ate his brain while in divorce court in order to prove that he was too MENTALLY DISABLED TO PAY CHILD SUPPORT. Trump wants to make this man the head of the largest health organization in the United States.

Trump wants to cut the corporate tax rate to 15%. This would give... -The 5 largest banks a $4.1B tax cut -The 5 largest drug makers a $3.1B tax cut -The 5 largest US oil companies a $2.5B tax cut -The 5 largest grocery stores a $1.7B tax cut Some populist, huh?

Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety… 1/2

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

I don't know who needs to hear this...but if you're in recovery from drugs or alcohol, don't let anxiety about Tr*mp take that away from you. Have a plan for election night and the days after. You've got this.

Text banking for Colin Allred right now! It’s well-suited for introverts/AuDHD folks like me. I’m helping without having to make too many choices (v automated). And it feels good to direct this anxious energy. Now do your part and vote!

If you are in a position to do so (not everyone is) please give yourself permission to just...not get shit done for the next 48 hours. Volunteer if you can, but otherwise, understand that being super unfocused right now is a perfectly normal stress and trauma response and IT'S OKAY.

Good content can help to make a service great. But it can't fix one that's inaccessible by design. So many services are exclusionary in their fundamental design. Complex eligibility criteria. Digital only. Office hours. 'AI' chat but no human to fix complex problems.

For the final few days of the campaign, Kamala and Harris should go with absolutely nothing but that the only way to save porn and Doritos is to vote Democrat.
