Let's be real...

Always be as careful and safe as possible!

Donald Trump is attempting to impose his authoritarian rule across the United States. Sending troops to cities against their will is unconstitutional and un-American. Stand up, speak out, and be loud against it.

1. Vaccines do not cause autism 2. Tylenol does not cause autism 3. Autistic people are actually pretty swell So many more thoughts but too angry/frustrated by this bullshit to pull it together. Sending a hug to all my neurodivergent friends and family. Love those freaky wonderful brains of yours.

"Don’t let corporate media tell you that you are exaggerating or that it cannot possibly get that bad because we are the United States and we live under an ironclad constitution. It has already gotten that bad, although there is a glimmer of hope..."

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database. Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away. The cruelty is the point.

Check out @hopeful66.bsky.social everyone! She always has wonderful SP's and does a lot to connect lots of like-minded, blue, determined resisters. We're lucky to have her!

Missing this guy today

❤️ if you’re watching Kimmel tonight

"In a threat-laden speech to the United Nations General Assembly, Donald Trump commanded the entire population of planet Earth not to watch ABC at 11:30 Tuesday night."

#ResistanceRoots Alma Thomas was born on this day in 1891 in Columbus, Ga. A pioneering African American artist and educator, Thomas taught art at Shaw Junior High School for 35 years. After retiring in 1960, she focused on painting and achieved fame for a vibrant abstract style. /1

Missed this yesterday. Everything about this man says kindness, compassion, intelligence and positive energy. Hope all had a happy Rosh Hashanah. Not like he even needs them, but as of yesterday, neither New Yorkers Jeffries or Schumer had endorsed Mamdani. Most telling, & disappointing.

Fuck these DHS Nazis!

Bringing Hitchens back from the grave has been absolutely brilliant. Never really even tried to understand the phenomena of Joe Rogan, but this video breaks it down incredibly well. Now thinking "I get it." Absolutely brilliant. "Normalizing and monetizing stupidity."

"Tensions are high—Democrats, Republicans, everyone. Please, take some time to breathe. Hug your kid. Call your mom..."

In the 48 hours leading up to that threat, she called me a demon, blamed me for Charlie Kirk’s murder, and told her supporters that I “should not know a moment’s peace.”

“Stand up to powerful people, and stand up for vulnerable people. Wherever and whenever you can. As Martin Luther King Jr. reminded us, the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. But that arc doesn’t bend on its own. We need to make that happen.” We must RESIST.

To everyone at the UN. Yes we do see that Trump is stark raving mad and a lunatic, as one member if the UN texted. We are totally embarrassed and are doing our best in the resistance to fix this!

Summary of Trump’s speech to the UN today: 1. Your countries all suck. 2. None of you know what you are doing. 3. The US is better at everything. 4. All because of me. 5. I’m right about everything. 6. You should listen to me & do what I say. 7. And give me lots of awards.

Pritzker seems to be the only one warning about this regularly

I think guns and SUVs cause autism. We should ban those.

Kamala Harris on The View on election night: "That night -- I grieved in a way that I have not since my mother died. The pain was not at all about losing a race. I knew what it was going to mean for the country ... all I could say over and over was 'my God, my God, my God.' It was very difficult."

Bruce is 76 TODAY! "Then the lights go out and it's just the three of us You, me and all that stuff we're so scared of Gotta ride down baby Into this tunnel of love" (Lordy - really miss the 90's!) "Cuddle up my lil dove"

"'Whatever our views on border enforcement, immigration enforcement, immigration policy, I think the overwhelming majority of the American people does not want detainees abused while they're in U.S. custody,'" Ossoff told NPR in an interview." My Senators! Both are heroes.

Telling of so much! As always, FOLLOW THE MONEY - all those wires, transactions - payoffs. Those records indeed exist, as opposed to some "list." And guess who has been blocking those investigations? Bessent and the congressional repugs, of course. It's the best bet. Thorough explanation here:

Happy birthday Bruuuce @springsteen 🎸 ✍️ ♥️

"that’s what happens to a country when it’s run by a dolt who imagines he’s the smartest guy in the room. one who ignores expert advice and makes decisions based on what the barking noises in his head are telling him."

Make it make sense. Autism was first discovered in 1911, and Tylenol was introduced in 1955.

Fuck Tylenol. What scientists should really be doing is investigating the link between fake tan and malignant narcissism.

🔥 There’s No Antifa Army … Because It Doesn’t Exist! They’re using fear, not facts. Antifa isn’t a structured group—it’s an anti-fascist ideology. This push to terrorize ideas is chilling. Democracy & the First Amendment are under attack. #FactsOverFear #CivilRights

Foreign asset

I AM ANTIFA !

Playing with people’s livelihoods, ripping away hardworking parents of US citizens from their families — is that just all “collateral damage” to you, Donald Trump and Stephen Miller? Is this heartlessness really the America you want to live in?

1) The Kirk memorial was disgusting. Basically using his death as a CPAC convention 2) Media coverage was pure Orwell’s 1984. Pure revisionist heroin pumped out across all platforms This is the appropriate Kirk eulogy 👇🏼

DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now." ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."

And he still will not endorse Mamdani! Neither has Jefferies, and they both voted "yea" on the resolution honoring kirk. Feckless cowards. Giving them the benefit of the doubt that they are both decent, good men, but clearly NOT up to the task at hand. We deserve better. Really NEED better.

Americans are paying more for groceries, rent, and gas. At that exact moment, the government shelved the dataset that explains why. No explanation, no timetable, no numbers—just silence where clarity should have been. What sounds like a technical delay reverberates far beyond the B of L Statistics.

Hear, hear!!!

If #Rump won’t release the #EpsteinFiles, the survivors will ! #TheRegimesHouseOfCardsWillFold

Gov. JB Pritzker President Pritzker - has a nice alliteration to it, doesn't it?

Interesting via @jvl.bsky.social: US democracy may have hidden resilience, per political economist Jonathan Schlefer. I would also encourage a key distinction between areas where he has what you might call an "easy" path to autocratic consolidation and where it's harder and he's failing. See below

If you’re wondering why the oligarchs propping up a regime would put so much effort into dividing citizens into a zero-sum set of factions, their freedom to engage in rank corruption and profiteering just might have something to do with it. newrepublic.com/article/2005...
