old Soviet joke for our times:
Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to.
Guy says: “looking for an obituary.”
Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.”
Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”
I can’t help but agree. Morning Joe is unwatchable at best.
Happy #SocialistSunday to all those who observe 🖤
"Not a wheel turns, not a phone rings, not a light bulb shines, without the kind permission of the working class. Once this enormous power is mobilized, no force on Earth can stop it."
-Ted Grant
Happy #SocialistSunday!
“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist”

Lisa Sterle's incredible Ten of Swords tarot card from the Modern Witch tarot, depicting a woman with long hair lying on a jagged landscape under an ominous sky. She's stuck full of swords and looking at her phone. It's captioned EVERYTHING IS FINE.
Just so we’re all clear, I go to sleep early and wake up very early. So I did not watch the Super Bowl. I did, however, watch the halftime show on YouTube this morning, so I’m caught up on all the important news.
Prove me wrong.

I don't want to live in a meritocracy. I want to live in the world where you'll be ok even if you don't have an iota of talent in your body.
Criminals took over our government to avoid prosecution and investigation? Color me shocked 😑
There it is
It’s not enough. But I’m staying positive.
Imagining throwing out the fascists while I scoop poo from the fat cats’ litter boxes is somewhat therapeutic, but also too real of a metaphor
I can’t stand these two. Just… ugh
Arrest Elon.
All the protests are not necessarily meant to change the fascists’ plans. It’s possible but not likely. The protests are absolutely happening to keep the left accountable and fighting as much as possible. It’s a start #keepprotesting
Fat cat says I work too much. But keeping myself busy helps with the anxiety.
A screenshot of a conversation on X. The first post by The Malicious Maestro Morgan reads: 'So you think an American citizen convicted of a felony 30 times should be deported?' The reply by Mind Doctor, verified with a blue checkmark, reads: 'Yes, you want one of them to possibly target one of our family members out on the streets? I want safer streets for innocent people. This is the way we achieve that.' The Malicious Maestro Morgan responds: 'Donald Trump was convicted 34 times.'
I need to report a murder.
Darlings, do not forget to take breaks. Ten minutes out in the sunshine. Fifteen hiding in a blanket. Twenty minutes on the treadmill.
You need breaks.
And hydrate, you complicated house plant:
Life doesn’t stop just because our country is going to shit. Your life can be stressful and all the bad news of the world can make it worse.
Find something positive if you can. Disconnect for an hour if you can. And remember that you’re not alone. We are in this together ❤️ #selfcare
