That's why I'm gonna keep a cool head and not doomscroll so much. I'm not gonna let these dickheads win.
Remember that there are people who profit from you feeling doomed. So please, take a breath, and cool down. You cannot organise, support, or protect your community if you’re running on solely fear and panic.
Steady yourself, share good resources, and remember a clear head is the way to move.

Dude. The Republican Party is pro Trump. That’s like asking the Arkham Asylum inmates not to attack Gotham City.
Asked about the possibility of impeachment, Schumer says "we hope that we can have support from our Republican colleagues to put a brake on this long before it gets that far"

The Owl House, Inside Job, The Great North, and Final Space all deserved better.

And Star Trek Lower Decks should have gone for at least 7 seasons like the 90s Star Treks. Those 50 episodes were really good, but they clearly had more stories to tell.
Name your fav show that was cancelled too soon

The WH released photos of Trump watching the operation live from a makeshift “war room” at Mar-a-Lago.

Trump went on Fox News this morning and said he watched it like “a television show,” praising the “speed” and “violence” as “an amazing thing.”

Talking about this shit all the time is mentally draining.

It's always okay to have fun, take care of your own mental health, and talk about whatever you want on your own platforms. People need to recharge.

Don't scold people for that.

It's important to stay informed. Especially on crazy days like today.

It just sometimes feels like if you have any social media presence (especially here), you're expected to constantly talk about politics and people scold you if you don't.

There is a reason Harry Turtledove is one of my favorite authors.
One thing this invasion of Venezuela is gonna do is persuade countries like, oh, Indonesia, Vietnam, Brazil, and Argentina that they could need nukes after all. Iran will work harder. Egypt and KSA may well, too. And what about Canada and Mexico? Easy for the one; maybe harder for the other. Maybe.

Mexico President "Claudia Sheinbaum calls on the United Nations to step in to stop Trump.

She says Trump broke article 2 of the charter of the United Nations.

I stand with Mexico!"

It is, in actual fact, both an ongoing violation of international law and of the United States Constitution.
Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."

As Trump drags us into an Iraq-style war in Venezuela, 312 members of the House — including 115 Democrats — just voted to authorize over $900 billion in military spending.

Our military personnel should reject this nonsense. There is no way they should be following orders of a criminal who is dragging them into a war for no reason. I’m pretty sure this is not congress approved attacks therefore making it illegal.
