I’ve named them Leroy. I don’t know where they go during the day but every night despite the dogs having shewed them off a few times they come back to that same spot and just either stare off into the night or flip around and look at me like I’m on their property.

On a more positive note. My gardenias are in bloom and lounging on my deck now in the still of the night with the fragrance they put into the air is…magical.

The conversation needs to shift within liberal media. Too much hope is being placed within a party without power. It shouldn’t be “what are the democrats doing” it should be “what are we the people doing”. Dem leadership has repeatedly said this themselves. They are a ship but we are the ocean.

I simply cannot talk to people on the phone anymore. The conversation is never the focus without interruptions between them playing games on their phone or having side bar conversations. This used to be considered rude. Feels like everyone does it now. Just text or email me at this point.

I don’t think there is not hope for Florida. I do think democrats feel we are a lost cause and put little energy into us and I hope we start finding leaders within our communities to strengthen our turn out and shift us towards a better future. Florida is a beautiful place not just a punchline.

Amazing accomplishment. Thank you for the work you do @tsmadison.bsky.social theatlantavoice.com/ts-madison-s...

On a completely different topic. I’m currently in my gardening era and went to islands of adventure this week. I saw these flowers and fell in love. Anyone know what kind they are?

I dunno what part of Bluesky I stumbled onto but apparently all the gyms were empty except for the guys that were able to get shirtless pictures of themselves. This isn’t a complaint.

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person. I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

It’s time for the US to accept Trump’s election was a foreign funded coup d’état and that they are experiencing the seeding of a dictatorship.

The good news is that there *are* people meeting the moment. youtu.be/EJxRtjma7lc

I don’t see how it is productive at all anymore for people to continue lumping all Democrats in together when there is clearly Democrats talking a stance. It’s a disservice to them to lump them in with those being complacent. Say who isn’t doing anything by name.

MY THESIS Musk is Donald Trump’s Russian handler, and he is working alongside JD Vance to destroy Europe, and with Trump to end democracy, abolish the Constitutional Republic, and invade at least all of Central and North America, which he intends to rule as Dictator. m.facebook.com/story.php?st...

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

People who complain about Elon and Twitter yet are still on Twitter are the same people who are outraged in comments about no one doing anything. If people especially those with actual platforms can’t be inconvenienced to let go of Twitter what’s that say about where we are.

More of this!

Seriously… they need to get it together. I don’t know what kind of leadership this is that they cannot see what their constituents want. What voices they want leading the charge. It sure as hell isn’t someone who has actively voted across the aisle recently that’s for dam sure.

Reposting now because it’s getting more and more relevant.

Can we go back to using “Human Rights” opposed to “this certain groups rights”. Why allow them to divide us by controlling the narrative and using smoke and mirrors from what it actually is?

The US should hold new elections, Trump must be removed.

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

So lately I unfollow someone on a platform who hasn’t taken a stance and follow someone who has. Like where we spend our money we also should be conscious of who we give our attention. Doesn’t matter the content they provide. Please feel free to give me recommendations!!! I’ll add a few in comments

I always circle back to this but the fact to me that people are still on twitter says a lot. How that platform isn’t a wasteland and why people feel justified in using it gives me the same “not voting” vibe. Like stop crying about anything if you can’t do the very bare minimum.

Massive protests in the US as the country faces an ongoing coup d’état by the Trump regime and his oligarch cabal headed by Musk. Countless people are standing up to fascism proving the US will not go quietly. #3E #USprotests #fiftyfiftyone #Feb17 (🎥 @vuralelibol.bsky.social )

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

I think what’s really screwing the liberal minded right now is the inability to focus on one cause. Like our leaders are telling us this, the other side has told us this, history has told us this. Distraction is the game and we’re being played and…I hate to say it. I think it’s working.

@katya-zamo.bsky.social we’re waiting dear

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

Which stage of grief does “this is all fking dumb for no reason” fall under?

I don’t know if she is on our side or not but if anyone can take advantage of that brief window of time anon was talking about it’s this lady and her friends..

Daily reminder to follow @pbsnews.bsky.social

I need to learn to proof read. I meant to say that saying out loud the election was stolen does NOT Make you like them. It’s that decorum they have come to expect and what they planned on all along.

YES!!!

Please WATCH... Bernie Sanders on the Senate floor to discuss America's dangerous movement toward oligarchy, authoritarianism & kleptocracy... www.youtube.com/live/QWf_b-_...

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Stop complaining about MSNBC and CNN not covering anything. They showed who they are long ago. Make @pbsnews.bsky.social cool again.

Social media warriors, callers and emailers, recruiters and organizers: the protesters have boots on the ground. State TV won't report this like it needs to be reported. Seek these stories out and share, share, share. We. Are. The. Media. ❤️‍🔥✊️❤️‍🔥 #HopeCorps

❗️URGENT❗️Trump is gutting democracy & Congress is letting him. Flood their phones—make them feel the pressure. 5 CALLS makes it incredibly EASY: pick an issue, get a script & DEMAND action from your reps. We will NOT be silenced. We will NOT back down. We will NOT live in fear. Call today! 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

It isn’t “alarming.” It isn’t “outrageous.” It isn’t “unusual.” It sure as shit isn’t “arousing.” It’s fucking unacceptable and we don’t want more letters or statements or demands for investigations. We want action! We want sand thrown in the machine! We want leaders to lead! Right now!

No justice. No peace.

Pope Francis said Donald Trump’s plans to impose mass deportations of immigrants would be a “disgrace,” as he weighed in on the incoming U.S. president’s pledges nearly a decade after calling him “not Christian” for wanting to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexican border.

The attitude we all need.

I thought this day I would feel a lot worse but honestly? I woke up to the Sun shining and the birds singing. Not everyone turned into zombies over night and I realize not everyone is trash. There’s no one for them to blame now. It’s time to stop giving the bad people attention. Focus on good.

Let’s hope that Tik Tok is disabled tonight at midnight and all day tomorrow and Monday. Which means the biggest story on Monday will be… And the reaction from the newly installed President will be …

This is heartening to see! The resistance is beginning. I know we are tired. I know we are fearful. But we will make ourselves heard and reclaim this country from the grip of MAGA fascism. I’ve seen the inside of barbed wire prison camps in America. We came back from that and shall overcome this.

When folks wake up… Coming to a bar near you in about 6 months.

There was more passion and outrage at Costcos across America today than I have seen over absolutely anything regarding what is the absolute shit storm we are entering. And it was over Pokémon cards. If that doesn’t say where we are I don’t know what else does.
