My boss (who I've never met face to face because she works remotely in another state) just announced that we're returning to office 5 days a week on a snow day.

Can't make this shit up.

Woke up today just absolutely seething with rage at absolutely everything.

The "double tap". The goddamn memes from the highest level of government joking about fucking murder. Busting my ass 40 hours a week and barely being able to get by.

Another day, another new low at the highest levels of government.

How did we get here? It's because conservatives do not hold their representatives to any kind of conduct standard. Their support is unshakeable as long as they are doing the most harm to the people they don't like.

Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

It's Transgender Awareness Week. We acknowledge the Transgender, Intersex & Non-Binary individuals of our community.

Every person who comes out or lives their true selves in today's climate of scapegoating hate has more courage than many will ever know.

You are welcome & you are loved. 🖖🏻💚

A dear friend is a SBux union leader; Corporate uses cruel tricks against employees who try to unionize. She shared with me how they intimidate employees. a store manager told a single mother working 2 jobs if she unionizes he'd cut everyone's hours & make sure the other employees hate her.
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

A weird thing that I do sometimes is I dream entire-ass movies. Last night I dreamed a new Avengers movie, in which both Spock and Godzilla joined the team, and lemme tell ya, it fucking ruled.

Also fuck ICE and fuck Nazis.
DHS posted this video two hours after I asked about the viral photos of Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino.

The portion where he does hand signals is from Bovino leaving court in Chicago yesterday.

The subhead alone "In Brownsville, Texas, some families found a buzzy new school’s methods—surveillance of kids, software in lieu of teachers—to be an education in and of itself."

What the fuck, parents?

For real. Regardless of what happens in the next few years, the fight continues. Everyone needs to do what they can, at the ballot box, in the streets, and everywhere in between.

Accepting defeat is the only thing not on the table.
The dooming on this site is getting out of control. Every time you post anything about politics some rando condescendingly wonders how you can't possibly know that elections are over and all hope is lost. If you've completely lost hope, I'm sorry, but shut the fuck up, OK? You're not helping.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

God dammit. Facebook is supposed to be the king of personalized ads, so why the fuck does it keep showing me god-damn Charlie Kirk t-shirts?

If I have to have the big media companies reading my mind to sell me shit, at least do it with stuff I might actually want.

Another HUGE reason to go to a #NoKings protest tomorrow is because these fascist losers DON'T want you to. To hell with them. No Kings, NEVER.

I've heard it said that you shouldn't speak ill of the dead.

So, I'd like to get it in ahead of time.

Mitch McConnell is a truly awful human who has worked hard to make the US a much worse place. (And much of the rest of the world too, come to think of it.)

By far the most likely outcome if you attend a rally, especially a big one, is that you'll experience feelings of joy and solidarity to a degree that can make you giddy. It's the best antidote for the fear, anger and depression resulting from all this constant bullshit. It's a great feeling. Go.
I know there’s been an effort to make this seem scary and risky, but if we all show up, friends and neighbors in tow, it will be effective. Let’s show up for the brave people in Chicago, Portland, DC and LA.
