"The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others”
For me, nobody epitomizes this quote better than Jimmy Carter.
Rest in peace, good Sir.
May your character, compassion and deeds inspire generations to understand the true meaning of a life well lived.

At what point does the #GOP just get renamed for what it is — the “American Fascist Party”?
👉🏽 Seizes power through (questionably) legal means
👉🏽 Declares its policies are the will of the nation as a whole, regardless of dissenting factions… (1/3)

You’d think Congress would have already acted to make legal #immigration easier to maintain the U.S. workforce & economy…except the whole point has been to exploit undocumented workers to keep wages low/profits up. Now they’re seeing that plan crumble as migrants walk off job sites in protest. #FAFO

I made 3 separate posts that were critical of #DOGE. Conveniently for #ElonMusk, my posts kept disappearing or not posting at all. No warnings or error messages, just gone. 4th time’s the charm 😑 #🖕🏽MuskX

I think it speaks volumes that right wingers criticize bluesky for being “liberal” and “left wing”, when it’s really just that hate speech isn’t allowed.

House Republicans actually voted today to block the US Senate from receiving their report containing sworn witness testimony and documentary evidence about the nominee for Attorney General of the United States paying a child $10,000 for sex.
That’s where we are at.

I’m curious if any politicians on Twitter have monetized their accounts, or if that’s even allowed. If so, who receives those funds?

We need some Elon Musk whistleblowers.
People who worked with him throughout 2024 and know the creepy, corrupt, possibly criminal stuff he did behind the scenes at Twitter—whether in working with the Trump campaign, reaching out to mega-donors, creating PACs and illegal lotteries, or anything else.

You know Trump’s cabinet picks are bad when even the #MAGAt propaganda machines are like “What the £#@% did he just say?!”.
#Conservatives are finally realizing the #GOP has never cared about qualifications. DEI outrage is just a racist dog whistle to hide that the GOP has NO qualified appointees.

Can anyone be surprised that #Indiana #GovElectBraun stacked his transition teams w/ corporate overlords, lobbyists, and one-percenters?
Capitalist cronyism is partly responsible for Indiana’s backslide over the last 3 decades. It will only get worse under #MikeBraun and #MicahBeckwith.

Anonymous, if you're listening: We could really use those ethics reports on Matt Gaetz that forced him to resign from Congress rather than risk their release.

Matt Gaetz, the alleged drug trafficker, human trafficker, and sex predator thought it was a brag saying he’s only sometimes slept with girls under 21…And still fails to clarify none have ever been below the age of 18. WHAT. THE. FUCK.

In the spirit of open conversation and transparency, I rarely blocked profiles on Twitter. I really hope I can keep that up here 😬 but I’m tired of the hate and stupidity so…like👇🏽said.
Be vigilant about keeping abusive right-wing trolls off your accounts by reading replies and blocking. We all have a responsibility to keep this platform from becoming the toxic sewer that the other one is. Don’t look to others, do your part.
