Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.” – Rachel Carson #Photography #Sunset #Ocean #Dockside #NewEngland

So now that Hillary Clinton has testified to the Epstein Files, the other 900 hundred MEN named in the same files are being called up to testify, right?

Tell State Leaders: Tax the Rich. Working families are being crushed — and politicians keep telling us there’s “no money” to fix it. Send a letter to demand leaders in your state support a tax on extreme wealth to make our communities stronger. . actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

The definition of "harmful" is deliberately vague. The burden on librarians is deliberately immense. The chilling effect on reading, but also on publishing, author events, bookshops, and more is COMING. The purpose of the laws is to give the State power to incarcerate anyone M*GA doesn't like.

Mamdani: "$5.4 billion is a very steep mountain to climb ... We want to work with Albany to raise personal income taxes by 2% on the 33,000 New Yorkers earning more than $1 million per year and to raise corporate taxes on the most profitable corporations."

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today. We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Does that seem fair to you?

Can confirm.

🙏🌎 - A Europe-based project aimed at unmasking US ICE agents is racking up millions of views, and mobilizing hundreds of volunteers in the process. The site, known as the “ICE List,” traces back to June, after HSS Kristi Noem warned that Americans who publicly identify ICE agents could face arrest.

“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔 (From @crindivisible.bsky.social )

The courage of this man is impressive. The conduct of the Ukrainians makes me proud to be a human being.

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

Finally watched this and was sobbing as @librarianjones.com talked about our responsibility to protect kids 💔💔💔 Highly recommend everyone watch this documentary. The work we do matters.

“If our country does manage to save itself, it will be because people just like these librarians say enough is enough. We the people have a right to read what we want, and no billionaire or self-appointed prophet will take that right from us.” @la-cac.org open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Students have every right to protest, even though Gov. Abbott threatens them. But the most effective protest is at the polls. Those who are 18 or older need to ensure they’re registered to vote.

Let’s be clear: when the Trump administration kills or stalls energy generation projects, that’s the White House choosing to make your electricity more expensive. Americans deserve better.

Timeline Cleanse Sound Up Because every day is like this Isn't it ? So I hope @aaronparnas.bsky.social enjoy this and I thank him for keeping us informed Hope this brings you a smile This wonderful pup🐾 #TimelineCleanse

I love how they dealt with the threat, and then record rather than continue the violence. The kid at the end pulling another away…. This is how we win.

I’ve only met one billionaire and he gave off this super creepy vibe that I will never forget. Billionaires are greedy, soulless monsters who refuse to pay a living wage, even though they easily could, and want to extract everything, including your soul. They make me understand the guillotine.

Tweet so good I had to post it here

Mayra: It seems like the Epstein files are full of creepy, fucking nasty billionaires and not Somali immigrants, trans people or Joe Biden.

It really does, doesn't it?

DUCKWORTH: If it's true that we are not at war with Venezuela, will you advise the president to rescind his invocation of the wartime Alien Enemies Act? RUBIO: That was a mechanism to remove people from our country that present great danger D: It's a wartime act. Are we currently at war? R: No

Jealous Dog Core

The Atlantic finally catching up with what some of us have been saying for *years*

The goal of nonviolent civil resistance is not to convince the regime they're wrong. The goal of nonviolent civil resistance is to convince the people to work together to make it impossible for the regime to sustain itself. We aren't nonviolent for the regime. We're nonviolent for each other.

#OTD in 1911, Marie Curie was proposed for membership in the French Academy of Sciences--and promptly voted down. 11 months later she won her second Nobel Prize (Chemistry). 51 years later, Marguerite Perey (a student of Curie), became the first woman member of the Academy. #WomenInSTEM

Dear Blockee, I block you for the same reason I scrape dog shit off my shoes. Not because I'm “afraid” of dog shit, but because dog shit has no inherent value, creates a huge mess, and makes everything smell like dog shit. Just to be clear, in this analogy, you are the dog shit.

Seems to me if the Supreme Court says a business can deny a cake to a person based on their deeply held beliefs, then a business can deny a bathroom to ICE goons.

‘Patriot’ Front went to DC and people blasted clown music at them.

Ben Damberg protest volunteer: “None of us want to be doing this — I don’t, but we simply cannot stand by as other Minnesotans are being hurt — we will march, we will protest, & we will do it all peacefully above all else”

If I am being totally honest.

I thought all of you people learned to make bread during the pandemic so why are you panic buying so much bread?

If you're in Rutherford County, Tennessee, your library board is about the completely demolish the principles of public librarianship & abolish the right to read. Get there. This isn't new. It's continued escalation of a years' long fight here, aided by the Sec of State. fox17.com/news/local/r...
