Targeting Kelly is one of those “this is why we’ll win” moments, bc it shows how politically impetuous this admin is.

There’s clearly no adult in the room to say “wait, maybe don’t go after the charismatic war hero turned literal astronaut who ran after his wife was a victim of political violence.”
Mark Kelly: "My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head. Six people killed around her, a horrific thing. She spent six months in the hospital. We know what political violence is and we know what causes it too, The statements that Donald Trump made incites others."

2. We need to be the weavers of the social, economic, and physical safety net for our people. I don’t mean charity. I mean mutual aid. And let me be clear—mutual aid has to be reciprocal. It’s building community. It’s knowing we all have something to give and gain from being in right relationship.

This’s a long one.

TLDR: What needs to be done requires us to get more comfortable w/contradictions & complexity, but doing the right thing, loving your neighbor through your actions, taking collective action to build & sustain our power, & reveal & make evil uncomfortable, is pretty damn simple.

📢Our latest blog post: "No es la frontera, es el color de nuestra piel", written by Manuel Vicente, our radio Jornalera Director, it invites us to rethink the narrative and stand in solidarity with our community, criminalized simply for the color of our skin.

As per the law stated in that post it has to be hung in a flagpole. She didn't hang the pride flag from a flagpole. It's spread out between the rocks. Maybe it got wet and she was drying it out.

A Yosemite National Park ranger has been fired, and others could still face charges, after a massive transgender pride flag was hung from El Capitan earlier this year. Shannon “SJ” Joslin, a bat biologist, received a termination letter last week citing “unacceptable conduct.”

My whole English class read this in the 1980s. One of the more popular choices of the teacher.

Today in history, 1945: George Orwell’s novella “Animal Farm” is first published. The story is a satire of Stalinist Russia involving a group of anthropomorphic farm animals who try to create a utopian society but wind up with a dictatorship. /1

I’m organizing my Linktree to keep folks organized around stuff I know is coming up that is worth plugging into.

I know it’s incomplete, but includes orgs & campaigns that I rock with, upcoming national calls, vetted calls to action, and resources (toolkits, past webinars).

@ashdashlee.bsky.social and others inspired me so much at the #onemillionrising meeting this week that when I saw there wasn't a #stopthetrumptakeover rally in the town I was going to be in this weekend, I clicked on the link and set one up at the last minute. Over 30 people joined me in Ukiah.

The hill behind the Art Museum is Iizunayama Park. It was a drizzly day, but cool so I took a walk to check out the lichens. I ran into a beat up blue admiral or ruritateha (Kaniska canace) just like Mr Unno’s photograph. Iizunayama Park, Komoro, Nagano #Invertebrate #Insect

#BlueSky is so aptly named.
It's like an outdoor indie bookstore while #TheBadPlace is like the battery cell tower in The Matrix.
