First they came for the immigrants and the federal workers and trans people and pronouns and DEI hires and birth-right citizenship and foreign aid and the Department of Education and the separation of powers and the rule of law and I did nothing because a government shutdown would be worse somehow.

Greatly amused that all the dudes who voted for Trump so men could be men are all women now because of an executive order. We’re all female at conception. Literally Trump’s bitches. #CommentNotMade

It took a long time to write this and also no time at all. I finished the book two years ago but could never write an epilogue I liked. After talking to @johnlowell.bsky.social in Nov., a new final chapter started swirling. I sat down to write it two days ago, and it all came pouring out. 2/n

“We may find victories here and there, but defeats can be demoralizing. If we are going to last for four years, we need to hold on to the joys of our successes and accept and move past our losses so we can keep working toward the ultimate goal of getting Trump out of office.”
Find out how the meeting went and what I told Indivisible Montgomery to expect from the years ahead.

It's not too different from what I would say now about the coming years.

A friend of mine with some experience fighting against evil. Link to article in thread.
Hello everyone! Most of you know me from my work in biomedical science policy. But a large chunk of my life from 2016-2021 was leading Indivisible Montgomery, a grassroots activist organization dedicated to standing up for our community and against the hatefulness of the Trump administration.

For my second post, I will remind everyone that the future is way brighter. (Kind of has to be with how dark the present is.)

Still not sure what I’m gonna do here. What’s everyone like?
