OUTRAGE: TX Republicans have literally barricaded Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber. They demand Democrats sign police “permission slips” to exit.
This is not lawmaking—it’s hostage-taking. It’s fascism in plain sight.
📍 Austin: 1100 Congress Ave. TONIGHT 7pm. Rise up.

WOW. @marcelias.bsky.social goes off on the failures of legacy media: "We have an absolute collapse and failure by the institutions that have promised us that democracy would not die in darkness, that in fact, they stand for the proposition that democracy will die in plain sight of daylight."

Since TikTok will soon prohibit references to caste on their platform, this had 0 views so I’ve brought it here because this is important to me. Hopefully it will remind us all that compassion & empathy are still important. #Appalachia #Appalachian #poverty #empathy

An EEOC admin. judge sent a fiery all-department email this AM alleging:
1. Trump's exec orders & instructions to target private citizens with them are illegal.
2. the judge had sent an earlier email with a similar tone yesterday that later vanished from their sent folder & colleagues' inboxes.

Teaching children how to properly use the bathroom is apparently bad. Which bathroom they use throughout life is apparently a big deal. To where are we de-evolving? Are we just gonna give up on toilet training all together?!? Never thought I would ever type something so . . . weird😩

The Nazi Huntington Beach CA City Council has removed “Everyone Poops” from school libraries, because it was deemed “too sexual.”
If you think pooping is “sexual” or teaching a kid it’s ok to poop, you might be the one with the sexuality problem.

KEEP TULSI GABBARD FAR AWAY FROM NATIONAL SECURITY ‼️
NEW: Nearly 100 former national security officials slammed Trump’s pick of Tulsi Gabbard for director of national intelligence. The letter, obtained by NBC News, urged senators to “carefully evaluate” whether Gabbard is fit for the role.

Every year I have a garden with tons of annuals in it. And every year my goal is to bring them in the house. This year, it happened. So here is a picture of the annuals thriving inside and I’m so proud of them. I’d like to thank the Academy… 😁

When Twitter turned into X, I stopped using it because it was horrible. It wasn’t “free speech,” only name calling, bots/trolls & verbal abuse. But here, it’s real people communicating and enjoying a social media app.
