Never forget you don’t need a mandate to do the right thing. You can wear a mask and protect others. You can get boosted. You can help someone in need. You can donate to mutual aid. You can amplify voices different than your own. Caring about one another IS a form of resistance.

Fascists want us divided, uninformed and sick. A sick, apathetic population won’t put up much of a fight. Protect your health. Read local independent journalists. Support libraries, community fridges & food banks. Give to mutual aid. Wear a mask. Strong inclusive communities will save lives

A ‘garden path sentence’ is a grammatically correct sentence that tricks the reader into misinterpreting it. The old man the boat. (The boat is manned by the elderly.) The prime number the few. (People who are exceptional are few in number.)

Well caring deeply about politics turned out to be a mistake. Time to instead become emotionally invested in a field where I’ll never be let down: sports

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

If you want to stand up to fascists, wear a mask. It’s one of the simplest and easiest things you can do to resist. It protects your health, while also protecting disabled and marginalized people who are in grave danger from fascist policies.

People are not getting the messages they need the most. As our government information systems (CDC, NOAA) get dismantled, this is getting worse. Truth doesn't have a marketing budget, so spreading those messages is up to us. ONE solution to this, is street art. Join me 3/3 at 8pm lu.ma/53ks8h33

another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

“It’s heartbreaking, what’s going on, and the feeling internally is awful,” former IRS accountant Chavi Schwarzbaum said Friday. “You just walk around, everyone’s crying, everyone’s devastated, people’s lives are upended.”

I keep seeing people just do something they think maybe would be helpful and watching that snowball and it's just amazing. Don't wait for permission, don't wait to be invited. Pick something you think needs to happen and that you can do, and do that thing.

It’s really important to remember to tie everything Musk and Trump are doing to the GOP and local Reps. Don’t just say “Trump and Musk” but Republicans as a whole, the Musk-Trump GOP, etc. The Republican Party is enabling this entire coup/scandal/turmoil. They must own it now and forever.

What can you do? Don’t give up hope. Dictators feed off your hopelessness. Don’t quit. Dictators want you to give up. Punch back. Dictators are bullies, and bullies are cowards. Stay tethered to the truth. Dictators need you to believe their lies. Resist. Stand with others.

Disabled people have been sounding the alarm about fascism for five years now. Pandemics lead to fascism. They excuse the deaths of the most vulnerable first. How do you not become vulnerable like us? Wear a mask! If you become disabled from Covid, they’ll excuse your death too.
