Entering my 8th decade.
I was there when we burned our bras.
I'm still here, ready and willing to burn down the patriarchy.
Anti-theocracy, anti-magat, anti-oligarchy

Minnesota lawmakers were butchered in their homes and Donald Trump doesn't have the f*ckin' decency to call Governor Tim Walz, because Donald Trump is a traitorous sociopath who has no desire to lead or care for this nation and its people.

Imagine being so fragile you’re threatened by a ship named after a gay man.
Pete Hegseth erasing Harvey Milk from the Navy during Pride Month isn’t patriotism — it’s spineless culture war cosplay.
Harvey’s legacy will outlast your cowardice. #LGBTQ #HarveyMilk @natstonewalldems.bsky.social

VIDEO: Here is the Regime treating a duly elected U.S. Senator like a farm animal because he had the temerity to ask questions of Kristi Noem.
Fascism is here. The jackboot of Big Government is pressing down on all our faces, and the only question is what we do next.

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced Tuesday that she signed an executive order seeking greater transparency from federal immigration officials. She said the city will submit regular Freedom of Information Act requests to find out who ICE is detaining and on what grounds.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

It’s now past 7 am and House Republicans just passed their heinous budget with the largest cut to Medicaid in American history.
The bill heads to the Senate now. But this fight is not over.

To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.
