There was no such thing as the Roman salute. Say it again. Don’t let anyone manipulate you into believing you saw something you didn’t. It happened, and we need to be calling it out now before history repeats itself again.

If Tiktok is gonna take down your posts, you better go out in a blazing fire!!!! Deleting your account is just doing their work for them. Making it easy for them.

So you're just gonna let them take our socials? We let them take FB. Then ig. Then x. Now Tiktok. They out-produce us and we let them. Stop letting them! You EARNED your space. Don't give it over to their bs! (Of course self care is important, duh, but don't disparage those who refuse to backdown)

A Hungarian equivalent to “a bad workman blames his tools” is ha egy kacsa nem tud úszni nem a víz a hülye. It means “if the duck can't swim, it's not the water that's stupid”

* And if you want more international duck phrases and facts, the following thread should fit the bill…

I think it’s very important to draw gay art and have gay sex right now. Give it a try, if you haven’t already. This is my advice for today.

A linguistics professor was lecturing his class. "In English, a double negative is a positive. In some languages, like Russian, a double negative is still a negative. But, there is no language wherein a double positive can be a negative."

A voice from the back of the room piped up, "Yeah, right."

So are you on the "not gonna touch it cause it's Renee yucky messed up" side of all this or "I'm gonna use it to my advantage cause I'm stubborn and chaotic" side of all the history repeating itself thing? Can we collect all the Uno reverse cards so they can't win?

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

RESIST.
Don't quit.
Don't stop fighting.
Don't obey in advance.
Don't stop calling them out.
Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can.
Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone.
Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight.

RESIST.

And while we march down the streets that are meta and Tiktok, maybe we get a ick while they do? Maybe we do buy stock. Ya never know, we could all agree to sell it at the same time in the future .....
January 20, 2025 at 2:16 PM
Ok so they're overtaking Tiktok and Meta with propaganda. Do we let them? Or or or do we try to out-create them? Get on and make so much liberal content that they have to work hard at their bs? Maybe it's just another street we have to march down again and again.

Fuck that
And there it is. Scam and grift revealed. Watch who gets rich off this. Interested also to see how legacy media covers this, which has been putrid so far.

The most insulting part of this clear propaganda stunt is just how poorly it was orchestrated.

The saddest part of it is how many people are falling for it.

No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by “executive order” a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.

Daily reminder that you absolutely CAN do the hard thing. It's going to suck. But YOU absolutely can do it.
Step 1- make a plan
Step 2- lose the plan
Step 3- make new and better plan cause you didn't need that first plan anyway
Step 4- Crush it!
YOU GOT THIS!
