Lots of people I know that were furious about kids having to wear masks are real quiet about a two year old citizen being wrongfully deported

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies. Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

So glad to see so many people out in Chicago today.

The SAVE Act is a poll tax. Over 69 million women would have to get new IDs to vote under the SAVE Act—all of which, except military IDs, cost money. As @mcclellan.house.gov explained, whether it’s $1,000 or 1￠, no one should have to pay to vote.

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

I hope the people who did you wrong Have trouble sleeping at night

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Touch grass. Now touch stone. Now touch water. Now spill blood inside the glyph. Now light the brazier

All I can really say at this point is if everyone isn't watching how trans people have lost basic rights and protections on a scale that hasn't been seen in decades in the span of 72 hours and realizing that even if you aren't trans there's nothing stopping it from happening to you, you're a fool

The cicada lifestyle is more appealing than ever. Hiding underground for the next 17 years only to emerge screaming, that's living the dream.

Medicaid covers 41% of all USA births. Pro life party that constantly screams about "declining birth rates," won't fund universal healthcare, won't fund pre-K, won't fund child tax credit, won't fund school lunches, & now eliminates healthcare needed for 2 of every 5 babies. This will kill people.

You don't "pause WIC." You attack pregnant women. You starve babies. You threaten the public. You break promises. You destroy trust. You sabotage the safety net.

Trying to keep my focus on the good! This week’s charitable donation is to Whole Village Art Therapy in NOLA🎨

Lunch came with a side of art!

Made a donation today to Open Books (openbooks.org). Trying to keep focused on the good.

Yesterday I celebrated one year with my sweet girl Pixie. She was adopted from Chicago Animal Care and Control (CACC)-they always have dogs and cats who need homes❤️

So, the people who screamed "Fuck your feelings!" at us and called us libtards for almost ten years are now wondering why their cries of "The election is over. We all need to come together, now!" are being met with derision and excommunication. They don't want community, they want compliance.

Apropos of everything...

There is no deadline There is no schedule There is no plan we can fall back on
