now this is the cyberpunk dystopia i signed up for

Where Bernie Won!!!

If there's one thing this administration has taught us is that rules are made up.

Whatever they'll do to trans people, they'll do to you...BUT WHY DO YOU NEED TO BE DIRECTLY THREATENED IN ORDER TO CARE? A human being is a human being. The trans community is made up of human beings who have every right to the same respect and care that you want for yourself 1/?

I was surprised to see so many given it's winter! That wasn't even all of them!

Took some much needed time away from the screens the other day. I even made some new friends along the way, even. 🍄 #restisresistance #timeinnature

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.

He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.

It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

There are powerful people in this world that want you to think that the sky is ONLY black OR blue. But let me remind you that dawn and dusk exist. We exist. We always have. We always will. And if you ask me...we are just as essential to this crazy world we live in as everybody else.

Get Yourself a Go Bag It’s the go bag!

hey just for no reason here's an article I wrote awhile back about go bags and why you should have one and what might go in one.

The Case for Resistance In this analysis, we explore what to expect from Donald Trump's second term and how we can prepare to confront it.

If you feel despair, if you feel defeated, if you catch yourself dissociating or focusing on what our oppressors are doing rather than on what you can do yourself—that is territory that the enemy has claimed within you.

Give them nothing. Focus on your agency. We are in a fight that we can win. 🏴🏴🏴

Empathy

Ask yourself this often, daily even.
If you find you are unintentionally not safe...that's a great place to start digging and ask yourself more questions to try and find out what biases you hold in your own mind that are restricting you from being the kindness we need in this world.

I think one of *the most* important questions you can ask yourself is..."Am I a safe person for the other humans I'm interacting with? Irl and online." Be honest.

Living is extremely challenging. Why make it even harder.
Choose kindness.
Wake up to your own bullshit.
Be the change you wish to see.

The irony that the economic and tech hubs of the US are mostly, if not solely, in blue states really makes you wonder. Especially when the #billionaireclass that's running everything is lobbying for fascism.

DO NOT LET THEM REWRITE THIS HISTORY.

DO NOT LET THEM EXPLAIN IT AWAY.

DO NOT INDULGE A DEBATE.

THEY'RE NAZIS.
THEY'RE NAZIS.
THEY'RE NAZIS.

We must be unrelentlessly
💥💥💥 L O U D 💥💥💥

Our voices will not be silenced!

We will not be eradicated!

The power is not with the few, but with the many!

Soccer stadium, large fabric flag of Mae Borowski from Night In The Woods, holding an axe and wearing team colors. There is text in the Night In The Woods title font on the right and left. It reads "From Stonewall a brick and Portland an Axe, Respect our pride or expect our wrath." It's cool

I don't think I need to clarify my stance on the topic but these soccer folks summed it up

Here are some nice mushrooms

My introduction to #booksky I guess?

📚 Reading is political
🎧 Audiobooks count as reading
📖 Reading is not a competition
🤔 Reading critically & reading for fun are not mutually exclusive
👉 If you support problematic authors, you deserve to be called out on it
🚫 Toxic positivity can eff off

To me the cool thing about this image is that the sprinkling of blue stars are in the foreground, some 5 million light years away, while all those gorgeous colorful swirly galaxies are almost unimaginably more distant, out in the far depths of the cosmos. More info: www.stsci.edu/contents/med...

Think the TikTok ban is gonna crush me.

TT has been an important space for me the last 2 years, it’s helped me understand myself so much more with all the content from the ND community.

If you think I’m overreacting, then you don’t get what’s great about TT, and this post ain’t for you.

A crowd of marchers in front of the Washington Monument

Just two days before President-elect Trump’s inauguration, thousands of people attended the People’s March across Washington to rally against his hard-right plans for the country and show support for causes like racial justice, immigration and gun violence prevention. nyti.ms/3PE798z

Banning tiktok before assault weapons is very telling of the US priorities 😑
