A newfound RESPECT for @maddow.msnbc.com for keeping it real about what’s going on at MSNBC and how she really feels about it.

She didn’t have to say this, but I’m so glad she did. Take 2 minutes…

People are waking up to just how bad things are with co-presidents Trump & Musk and Republicans running Congress.

We don’t have to wait for midterms—we can win special elections now. We’ve been here before and won.

This is very important as we watch states due to remove 504 protections for disabled kids and literally disappear the trans civil rights hero’s from our rich American history before our very eyes
The Holocaust didn't start in concentration camps.

It started in hospitals and asylums (where many trans Weimar Germans were sent after Berlin's queer culture collapsed) when the Nazis decided it was better to euthanize the disabled and the mentally ill than pay for their healthcare. 6/

Every time there’s an audiobook I want to listen to while working, I check my local county library website before going to audible, and they usually have it.

That means it’s free to borrow digitally and I’m not supporting Amazon; win/win.

Americans are dying for a sense of meaning. And community.

The two issues lie at the heart of many of our problems, but unfortunately many discussions stay at surface level because of how our media and cultural storytelling work.

A piece I wrote right after the election and right before Bluesky took off.

On leaving Orthodoxy and entering fascism. My story, and how it taught me to deal with what’s coming in January.
It's the End of the World
Reflecting on what it's like when everything you know falls apart, and how you pick the pieces back up again. And how it can help us deal with fascism.

This is a good idea, both in this context, but also more broadly speaking to other things they might corrupt or delete.
I’d like to start a thread for downloadable resources that could be in danger next year.

I know someone mentioned stuff from PBS, but if you can think of anything else we need to download asap: share it here!
