HAD ENOUGH OF TRUMP, MUSK, & the SPINELESS GOP? You are not alone. We are not alone. Stand together, and let’s show the power of the people. #HandsOff
The American people have risen up and they are PISSED AS HELL.

Portland showed up by the thousands for today’s #HandsOff march in downtown. We lined the bridges, and we closed SW Naito Parkway for many blocks. A trucker, stuck on an on-ramp due to our march, honked in unison with our slogans. It was peaceful. To the cautious: come out and join us!

Portland witches seeking community: consider joining me at our April 6th Coffee with Witches gathering in SE Pdx. Everyone who attends will be warmly welcomed, and included in the conversation. #pdxwitch #witchsky #occultsky

What a disgusting display of bullying behavior by Trump & Vance today. It was already gruesome that they were attempting to extract valuable minerals from Ukraine in exchange for lukewarm support. Disgusting. Trump is acting like a Russian operative. #antitrump #ukraine #antifascist

Hello, visitor. Please protest and stand up now, without any delay. Read the post below from a survivor of an authoritarian regime. The longer we wait, the harder it will get. #antifascist #antitrump #antimusk

This.
We’ve had Republican-sponsored bills to carve Trump into Mt. Rushmore, to give him a 3rd term & to rename Dulles Airport after him.

Now a Bill to declare Trump’s birthday a national holiday.

People are dying in floods, prices are rising & planes are crashing.

GOP is a national embarrassment.

Thank you @exceedhergrasp1.bsky.social for this helpful and specific rundown of the hallmarks of a fascist regime. Take a look. Sound familiar? Share this widely with family and friends, or mine it for conversational talking points with your right wing family members. #antifascist #antitrump
1. The Cult of Tradition;
2. The Rejection of Modernism
An "appeal to tradition" in which a fabled past is assumed to have been better than in the present. Calls for "traditional values"-- and policies to support "traditional" power structures and punishment of so-called degenerates.

The day began quietly, and then got louder. I snuggled up on the sofa and read devotional poems for Brighid by @maelbrigde.bsky.social . What a joy! At midday, I was downtown with several thousand people for the 50501 anti-Trump and Musk protest. Got my rage on! So many allies. #antifascist

It’s time to step out of despair and take action. I refuse to be a “good German” of the 1930s who looked away when groups and individuals became targets of the Nazis. We are not there yet, so now is the time to make sure we hit the brakes…HARD. (1 of 2) #antifascist #antitrump

It’s been cold and dry, but the rains are returning in northwest Oregon. There are a few buds on the roses in my backyard, and the flowering maple, planted last summer, persists in flowering right through February. Daffodils are preparing to unfurl. I will emulate their tenacity! 🌸🪻🌷

Feeling the need to move from fear, avoidance, or despair into action in the face of authoritarian rule? So am I. @aidanwachter.bsky.social shared this guide to collective action. #antifascist #antitrump #activism By sticking together we have power, and we can protect each other. 🔥 #witchsky

It’s cold, with snow in the forecast. My thoughts return to our visit to St. Nectan’s glen in north Cornwall, England in July of 2023. It’s a place of exquisite energy and beauty. We spent nearly a month visiting sacred sites in the west country. #pilgrimage #witchsky #cornwall #sacredsites

A blessed Imbolc to all who celebrate the first hints of spring. My circle is meeting tonight to honor the goddess Brighid at her well and forge.
In these times, it is easy to slide into despair. Instead, let’s claim our power and sovereignty to help one another. #imbolc #witchsky #antifascist

Yep, my partner got the nasty email Kaine refers to. Pour sand in the machinery, friends. Slow down the hateful attempts to undermine, threaten and dismantle good people doing their jobs helping others. #antifascist
Sen. Tim Kaine tells federal employees to ignore Trump’s offer to quit with pay for months. “Don’t be fooled. He’s tricked hundreds of people with that offer. If you accept that offer and resign he’ll stiff you just like he stiffed the contractors. He doesn’t have any authority to do this.”

When the witch hazel blooms, spring is dropping hints.
I made some new witchy contacts over coffee and a conversation about 🔥Brighid🔥 today, and would like to find the other Portland, OR area witches on Blue Sky. Is that you? If so, please say hello. #witchsky #witchcraft #portland #imbolc

The Inspectors General refuse to leave until the action is taken legally, which they do not believe it was, and neither do senators like Chuck Grassley. This is what not backing down looks like.

Hello! I am a Celtic polytheist witch living in Portland, Oregon, US. I’m staunchly antifascist, a lover of books, fountain pens and journals, and a community witchcraft teacher and ritualist. Here are two small books that inspired me recently. #witchsky #antifascist

Like many of you who are reading this, I am moving away from all things Meta.
Here in Portland, I’m focusing on building community among witches. We meet once a month for coffee and deeper conversations on selected topics. This month we are gathering to honor Brighid at Imbolc.
