Just called 2 of my senators to voice my concerns about protecting the Dept. of Ed. using a script from the 5 Calls app.
*breathing into paper bag*
Why is that so intimidating?? It's literally the least I can do.

they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government
Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”

As an introvert, I find myself in a constant cycle of:
ok, I should say something
ok, I said something
oh, I regret saying something
rinse and repeat.

When millions of struggling workers want to join unions, Trump's decision to neuter the NLRB is blatantly illegal. It is also a huge gift to Musk, Bezos & other billionaires who want to abolish the only federal agency that can stop their union busting.

Yet another reason why libraries are awesome. Got these 12 books for $12 at a local library book sale. $12! The money goes to the library, used books get a new home, and I get my shopping fix. Win win win.

If you're feeling despair it's because you have a moral compass. It means you're not empty on the inside - that you nurse hope and a sense of justice in a cage next to your heart. You're one of my people and I'll stand with you. There are more of us than they want you to believe. Hold fast.
