Just a friendly reminder to hop on Google Maps and Apple Maps today and report the Gulf of Mexico as missing. Thanks.

Everyday I have a moment where I remember this current administration actually spent time renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. When the people question our government, I remind them of this stroke of genius.

I haven't stopped listening to Kendrick's "Not Like Us" since he won those 5 Grammys, and after his Super Bowl performance, all I did was turn up the volume — the revolution will most definitely be televised.

Bomb their homes, declare the land "unlucky", and then proceed with hostile takeover to create the "riviera of the Middle East" -- absolutely despicable.
Trump says he wants the U.S. to take ownership of the Gaza Strip — NPR
Trump said he and Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu talked Tuesday about relocating Palestinians and leveling Gaza, which he suggested could be the “Riviera of the Middle East” under U.S. ownership.

If you're the only one not negatively affected by Trump's executive orders, then you just might be boring.

And the Department of Education purge begins. As the daughter of an educator, I am disappointed and dismayed and we cannot let Elon Musk dictate our country's educational future. Resist.

It’s cute how people think billionaires will fix climate change, meanwhile, they’re literally building bunkers
The Billionaires and Their Doomsday Bunkers
Tech moguls and business magnates have been sinking money into swanky fallout shelters for years. But are they realistic lifelines, or just expensive fantasies?

Remember that it’s privilege that allows you to turn your head away from injustices, it’s a privilege to not follow the news, to not bother with what’s happening in politics, to vote with just your wallet. Examine your privileges and try to think of people other than yourself today, thanks.

Dispel that alluring urge to jump ship and leave the country, because America needs people who recognize it is getting real bad and have the steel ovaries to stand against tyranny.

Apparently, DEI has made ATC and flying unsafe but also according to the wannabe dictator, it's still safe. Make it make sense.

Anyone check on those egg prices lately?

Free press is our safeguard against tyranny. The bulwark between truth and chaos. We must protect this pillar of freedom that upholds our democracy. We must protect our journalists.

“Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.” ― George Orwell, 1984

This is happening before our very eyes. We can't let Trump try to twist truths, create fictions, and lay blame on others. Orwell warned us. DEI is not to blame. Biden is not to blame.

ICE raids are infiltrating the lives of everyone. This was never about deporting "criminals", this was always about fear of others. They will come after every person of color. Once they come after everyone else, who will be left to say anything when they come after you?

Today on the start of Chinese New Years, let’s honor the Chinese immigrants who helped build this country. Immigration built America, and it still does. No human is illegal. End the xenophobic rhetoric.
