Kinda nice to be back on the Twitter interface from the good ol’ days. She/Her.

This is what I came here for. Thank you.
What is the charge? Writing a post? An innocent online post?

Everyone, no matter where they live, what they look like, or who they love, deserves to see themselves and their experiences in books—in bookshops, schools, & libraries.⁠

Reading helps us understand ourselves, our world, & one another.⁠

Make no mistake: They’re going to keep kidnapping as many people from as many communities as they can for as long as we let them.

Imagine spending your whole life cos-playing and fantasizing about fighting the federal government sending troops in against its own citizens only to root for the government when the moment finally arrives

Avelo Airlines is hiring 'energetic, highly motivated' flight attendants to work deportation flights
Officials in Avelo Airlines' home state of Connecticut said they would review business deals the airline has with the state, including tax breaks.

Get all your vaccines and shots. Make sure your kids are vaccinated. Priority number 1, folks. Not even trying to joke about this or be hyperbolic.

This is also a VERY useful stat sheet for calls tomorrow reminding your members of Congress how many voters they just voted to fuck over in favor of billionaires.
If you're looking for details for your calls, House Dems produced this tool where you can how many people in your district are at risk of losing jobs, health care, and food on the table from the House GOP budget.

"For the sake of the X people in CA-54 who will lose their Medicaid, please vote no."

It’s not any government institutions

It’s not the 2026 elections

It’s us.

It’s up to us.

I wrote about the very violent, very public detention of a woman for interrupting a speaker at the Kootenai County Republican’s town hall on Saturday. In Idaho, the lines between Republican politics and political violence are thinner than they are in some places; this is a terrifying escalation.
This Shocking Moment at a GOP Town Hall in Idaho Is a Foreboding Sign
Private, unidentified security personnel dragged a woman out of the event. It raises questions not just about tolerance for dissent, but also who gets deputized to do what.

I just did this. It took 5 minutes. If you want protection against DOGE fucking with your data, do this now.

Hmm, would be pretty wild if a bunch of people started making viral Facebook AI slop posts for boomers that casually spread leftist messaging...

Call your reps. Take to the streets. Cut off all ties to businesses, friends, and neighbors who support these fascist monsters. Buy only what you need. Care for those you love. Rage against the dying of the light.
Just got off the phone with Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.), who said Elon Musk's DOGE team is "actively dismantling" federal Department of Education programs today.

"They are in the building, on the 6th floor, canceling grants and contracts."

So does this mean Trump is running a black site at Guantanamo? If not, what is this?
