I love to read and garden and craft and write and I love my family. And I will not quietly stand by while fascists try to take over. And fuck the sycophants who think only democrats can/will save us. Expect more from ALL your elected officials!

There are a bunch of fake pictures of protests among my friend networks on other sites. They are really, obviously AI, but I understand how in all the pressures at the moment you can see it, have a feeling, and hit share.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions
FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

One cannot reasonably expect to use force & loudness to defeat those whose aim is to destroy instead of understand.
You can’t shout over everybody.
Explaining to idiots is pointless.
Be quiet, use your skills, and don’t give in.
