The world is slowly waking up to the fact that domestic animals have feelings. #sentience

Let's get it extended to all species.
Let's keep working to end all #animalcruelty, not least the billions enslaved and murdered in AnimalAg for profit, for taste.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it.

“When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.”

Donald Trump promised "law and order" but instead, he pardoned Capitol rioters who bludgeoned police, threatened lawmakers & left 5 people dead. Not what Americans want!

In 2009, @raquellaneri.bsky.social got the scoop on David Lynch's top-five sandwiches. Unsurprisingly, it's delightful. substack.com/home/post/p-...

My heart breaks for Eric Braeden (Victor Newman on "The Young And The Restless") who lost his family home last week in the LA Fires. He spoke out about STOPPING the spread of Misinformation & Disinformation, even though he lost EVERYTHING. Politicizing this by LYING is as DESTRUCTIVE as the fires!🙏💜

A 67 year old amputee and wheelchair user lived with his son who had cerebral palsy.

They were killed in the Eaton fire while waiting for an ambulance that never arrived.

Many disabled people can not evacuate on their own. They need to be included in evacuation plans (yet almost never are)

This is apparently the closest the New York Times can get to saying what is really happening -- Republicans are trying to steal an election for state Supreme Court justice by throwing out 60,000 lawful votes.

It is important for all Americans to understand that Donald Trump has no intention of leaving office after taking it on January 20.

None.

Do I think he has a plan in mind already? Probably not. But is he taking his Oath of Office as a man who expects American democracy to continue?

No, he is not.

And incidentally, ONE REASON I said it was important to blame John Roberts rather than Merrick Garland for Trump not going to trial, aside from it being true & blaming Garland requires y'all making shit up, is so ROBERTS gets held accountable for these pardons.
