This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.
I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important:
Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

Not going to lie, this is one of the hardest times of my life. Going through divorce after 18 years with one person and at the holidays when the kids are with him. How do you all cope with these things? #copingskills

If you’d told me on Jan 6th 2021 that the man responsible for that horrific attack would end up returning to the office he tried to steal that day, and that he’d do so after calling the attackers “heroes” & “hostages” he was going to pardon, I’d have thought you were out of your damn mind.

Twitter was bought and dismantled to remove the influence we all had on our own governance and with each other. We aren't just building community or reading the news on #BlueSky , we are learning and with information comes the ability to prepare, adapt, and overcome. knowledge is power.

Twitter didn't gain relevance by being the biggest platform, it gained relevancy through the quality of the content and individuals. The main goal for everyone here should be to encourage global defender, media, and establishment accounts to transition to #BlueSky. That'll provide legitimacy.

“Women are walking around, suspicious and guarded and apoplectic, knowing that some in our families or neighborhoods voted us back into second-class status, and wondering what else they’re ready to go along with.”

We’ve gone off the rails…
"It has been clear for many years, spanning many different presidencies: The adequacy of the guardrails and norms that govern the office, including but far from limited to its immunities and special protections, requires constant, careful attention," writes Bob Bauer.
Did the Legal Process Over the Last Four Years “Fail”?
