Hi, I’m Freya! I don't come here often. I hate AI and bigotry.
It's probably just because I'm getting old, but I wish the world could slow down a little. Less information being thrown at you, less urgency and energy on news broadcasts, less expectation to get everything done Now. Dunno how to get there, it's just a wish. I've made some personal progress on it!

It doesn't matter if they are ever coming for you.

It was always ever already too much that they were coming for anyone.

All of us canaries have to be dead before anyone starts earnestly trying to get out of the coal mine, I guess. Don’t worry, folks in the U.S. When the fascists are done with us they’ll come for you, and then you’ll feel like actually doing something because you’re personally affected.

When the guy who’s widely regarded as a symbol of the USA is saying that US citizens need to be ready to defend against their government, you can’t deny that things are getting serious.

Wake the fuck up, USA!
Tonight, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band opened their Land of Hope & Dreams Tour. Bruce launched this run of shows with three statements about the situation in the United States, with comments preceding his songs Land of Hope and Dreams, House of a Thousand Guitars and My City of Ruins.

Maybe the people who criticize social media for being a “leftist echo chamber” just don’t want you to think of it as “a tool for organizing against tyranny”. 🤔

As a break from the doom and gloom: reading through books from pre-Internet times has me wishing that I could communicate by letter more. I know emails tend to be written the same way as letters, but it would be unacceptable to write a lengthy email just to pass the time these days. Yes I’m old

Tonight is Dutch Remembrance Day. They honor the dead in WWII. They spent 5 years under Nazi occupation. 70% of their Jewish population was deported and murdered, the largest % of any nation. 300k ppl were hidden from Nazis by Dutch citizens, to include Anne Frank. 1/7

Belatedly reading about how this all went down last time. The author is a gay man who was fortunately sent out of Germany before the Nazis could get him. He cites lots of sources that will be useful for further reading. Bring your notepad for this one.

History has been repeating itself for a while.

As I stumble toward middle age I see more of my past mistakes. Such as: if I assume that people are inherently “good” (i.e. kind, unselfish) and that good will triumph on its own, I’ve ignored how people have potential for “evil” as well. And I’ve excused myself from trying to encourage the good. It

The USA continues to be a shining example to the rest of the world. An example of what NOT to do. The shine is from the massive dumpster fire.
