We are begging our government to stop torturing us for a few days to let our children enjoy Halloween

Trump says "surge" operation of federal agents in San Francisco is paused following phone call with SF Mayor Lurie and some tech titans. Unclear what this means for Oakland and other Bay Area communities. Little is known about the DHS operation Trump ordered. oaklandside.org/2025/10/23/t...

Protesters attempting to block federal law enforcement from entering a U.S. Coast Guard base near Oakland were met with apparent stun grenades Thursday morning. 🎥 Stephen Lam/S.F. Chronicle, Sarah McGrew/S.F. Chronicle

Volunteers are here at the Oakland Home Depot handing out resources and keeping an eye out for federal ICE agents amid the news of the arrival of agents to Alameda's Coast Guard Island @sfchronicle.com

American citizens: No Kings! Trump people: oh ok so I’m going to destroy one of the country’s most cherished historic buildings in a “look what you made me do” type tantrum reminiscent of that abusive guy who freaked out on you when you tried to dump him.

It’s kind of wild that after seven million people were in the streets protesting, the president posted a hallucinated video of himself wearing a crown and shitting on Americans and then proceeded to start demolishing parts of the White House

No Kings San Francisco

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Today is my birthday but I don’t think it’s going to be as fun this year because of all the fascism #USA

Hundreds of protesters formed the words “IMPEACH + REMOVE” by assembling in each letter to protest the actions of President Donald Trump and adviser Elon Musk, the Tesla CEO in charge of the Department of Government Efficiency.

No, I’m not happy with this season’s finale of The White Lotus. I’m actually kind of mad right now.

This garbage can in my neighborhood has had enough

Yes!! Thank you! Go go go!! www.youtube.com/live/v2utlMx...

Happy President’s Day from San Francisco!

From @nytopinion.nytimes.com “In Trump’s first term, we were told: Don’t normalize him. In his second, the task is different: Don’t believe him,” our columnist Ezra Klein says.

Not feeling so great about returning to the US

Yes, I’m mostly posting pictures of animals but I can see what’s going on back home. It’s terrifying but it’s meant to be — the point is to overwhelm and exhaust with outrage. That doesn’t make it easier but keep diligent with your ideals and self care. Take breaks. Do something you enjoy.

Because everyone could use good lion cub cuddle party right now. Take care, friends. Glad to see you here.

Hi gorgeous #tanzania

Can you die from seeing too many #elephants in one day?

Never shave a Pomeranian.

The fires in LA are so bad, I can’t even believe what I’m seeing. So grateful people I know are ok but this is devastating 💔💔💔

This is a good one but listen with discretion

What is happening today??!

Well ok, guess I’m awake now

Thought this would be a good time to reshare this 2018 episode from Generation Cult’s @generationcult.bsky.social Season 1 about someone raised in the Science of Identity Foundation. This is what Tulsi Gabbard is in. It’s not bullshit. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/g...

Another @generationcult.bsky.social Season 3 episode (2023) is up on YouTube! This one was the season finale. A brand new Season 4 episode is coming soon.
