As the government shutdown continues, here are some resources for military members, their families, and other federal workers who've been furloughed. militaryfamilies.com/news/governm...

Still a favorite

As bad as this headline is, the details are worse. Russel Vought is trying to roll back SS for the elderly, the disabled, the widowed and orphaned and FURTHER cut food stamps. Make sure to read and share this gift link: wapo.st/4qa8yoq

Do Not Engage Do Not Enrage Stay Weird, Everyone!

People in Chicago: Know your rights when faced with federal forces.

Shutdown resources for those affected! Thanks, USNI!

October 18, 2025. Bring flowers. Sing songs. Flood the streets. Nonviolent resistance is the best path forward.

The date is set for the next big protest. Saturday, October 18th. NoKings.org Comment your events.

I’d be remiss if I didn’t point out that this is non-profit which only began in the past year; if you’re a DOJ alumni, please consider joining our network, and if you’re not, please consider a donation. It’s going to be a long battle.

No Kings. October 18. Everywhere. Nonviolent mass mobilization is the way

If given an illegal order, here is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. 1-877-447-4487. Service members are subject to prosecution for following illegal orders.

“The Trump administration has shown no compunction about purging outstanding senior officers. It has been ruthless & unprincipled & it should not be assumed that either your values, service, or interests count for anything in the current carnivorous environment.” www.justsecurity.org/121421/hegse...

Join the General Strike US and prepare your community to strike back! 3.5% @generalstrikeus.bsky.social

turning out 3.5%—or 11.9 million Americans—would be a tremendous achievement in the effort to overcome MAGA authoritarian rule, but over 60% of movements that turned out 1% to 3.5% succeeded. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

DC/DMV folks: When Jimmy Kimmel fails to air at 11:35 tonight because Sinclair Broadcasting wants to punish him, light up the station’s switchboard and tell them you will be contacting and boycotting their advertisers.

www.tiktok.com/t/ZTM8gYD6x/ We are still boycotting the FUCK out of Sinclair broadcasting. If there is a Sinclair affiliate in your area, write them to let them know you will be avoiding the station and boycotting their advertisers!! If the assholes only understand MONEY, let’s take theirs!

I never type this but rofl

Tylenol use is safe in pregnancy, lowest effective dose. Don’t listen to the utter nonsense emanating from the highest office in the land today. Speak to your medical provider.

Well..... now that you bring it up

The modern US version of the labor strike is a consumption strike. Stop buying things. Completely. Cancel everything you can. Focus on necessities and going outside and talking to loved ones and reading books. Don't buy anything, America.

An ICE agent unholstered his gun at a protest this morning. Please don't let yourself become numb to this.

Three words: PASS PROP 50! We MUST retake the House to check Trump’s atrocities. We must redistrict to fight red-state gerrymanders or House elections will never matter again. Spread the word about Prop 50 NOW! Ballots arrive at the start of October. We only have one month. buff.ly/dd6XRzA

Just a friendly tip from the Auntifa Army: What happened in Chicago today might be a one-off. Or it might spill over. People are really getting fucking pissed, which is good, but also dangerous. Learn about protesting, what makes it go right, and what makes it go wrong.

No Kings on Oct 18 is going to be the largest peaceful protest in American history. The only way to protect our freedom of speech is to exercise our freedom of speech. Get to planning in your community asap. nokings.org

Don’t let this make you quieter. Get louder.

This is the Jimmy Kimmel segment that Donald Trump doesn't want anyone to see. What's a mere bribery-adjacent regulatory abuse compared to Trump's other civilization altering scandals? www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j3Y...

Corporate media washing the feet of MAGA think they’re being canny business people by joining in the destruction of free expression. Problem is their business models were already on life support and they are simply guaranteeing their accelerating irrelevance.

Terrific thread on what it looks like, in practice, not to obey in advance. Good advice for those new to political advocacy, as well as those who've been at it and are very tired.
