NEW: The rise of authoritarianism in the U.S. is something @marcelias.bsky.social and his ancestors, who fled the Pale of Settlement, never imagined. But history teaches us that staying silent and letting hopelessness take over is never an option.

If your taste in Halloween costumes runs a little theatrical, has the Goodman Theatre got a sales event for you.

Greta Thunberg has just been released and she is back on the warpath, exactly like our leaders should be. Israel will never silence her or the billions who oppose them.

Late tonight, a federal judge issued a sweeping new order prohibiting the president from deploying any National Guard forces—from any state or DC—to Oregon. The president cannot keep playing whack-a-mole with different states’ Guard units to get around court orders and the rule of law.

I woke up a bit early this morning and decided to post a western bluebird for all the birders out there. #birds, #nature, #photography, #colorado

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

AWESOME! Take a moment to listen.

I nearly threw up when I saw a 2 year old little black boy with his arms zip tied behind his back. You planning to wait until the gas chambers to fucking fight back! have nightmares from that picture… such inhumane treatment only going to get worse. They said they are just getting started America

Republicans don’t need a single democratic vote to fund their regime. Here’s why. Please share widely.

I love that a local #sushi restaurant prominently features #heron beakspear artwork alongside our CA Central Valley ricelands that provide both quality sushi #rice and heron habitat. I also love that I feel the need to share this with one of my absolutely favorite follows, @everyheron.bsky.social ❤️

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

‼️ STREAM TONIGHT ‼️ I'll be joined by @amandalitman.bsky.social !! We'll chat about grassroots campaigning and answer your q's on running for office. (Also I'm knitting a hat and if we hit our goal tonight, maybe I’ll mail it to someone who donates during the stream. 🙂) 7 PM CT, Twitch + YouTube

If you were in the room during Hegseth and Trump's speech, and you'd like to share your response anonymously, reach out to me on Signal (in bio.) Share widely.

I called. Please call Chuck Schumer. (202) 224-6542

Call Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, and ask him why he's protecting pedofiles and childhood sex traffickers. His official DC numbers are: (202) 225-4000 and (202) 225-2777 Bossier City office: (318) 840-0309 DeRidder office: (337) 226-6385 Leesville office: (337) 423-4232 Be relentless.

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress. Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights. But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

This isn't even a noticeable fraction of the ground we are losing, mostly to the Chinese, but generally worldwide. Every country is gaining in scientific namespace, actual breakthroughs, patents and research. This is our future prosperity slipping away from us.

i found a connecticut warbler on the way to work this morning and it we the exact opposite of what connecticut warbler experiences are supposed to be like

Some guy on TikTok is threatening to release the Grindr profile of Mike Johnson. Please human, please don’t let God down. 🙏

Speaker Mike Johnson canceled two PIVOTAL days of Congress to STOP a shutdown and making them DO THEIR JOBS. This is 1000% on Republicans & Donald Trump!

Take a moment to read a helpful video! Keep crafting! If you don't have a hobby, this is a perfect time to try out something new.
