Hiya! Altruistic activist & ✒️ in Charlotte Co., FLA. I'm building a non-violent resistance movement against these fascists alongside my friends, & would love for others to join us in resoundingly dissenting them with our strategic actions! 🌊 🚫 Crypto!

Port Charlotte, Florida #WorkersOverBillionaires protest with my Momma! 💙 We had a fantastic turnout and support with awesome conversations with my fellow women resisters ✊🏻👏. Since #TheEnglewoodFLResistance joined our town's Labor Day Parade, they had today's protest on Saturday instead!

Much of my writing these last 10+ years has had a singular focus of speaking to those who refuse to be reached, & after relaying what @hcrichardson.bsky.social wrote in her 07/07/25 letter, I shared how failing to encourage people into action from our reality is one of my life's deepest failures...

I wish I didn't smile holding this sign w/my Mom, but at least it reflects our tragic reality. So much would have been prevented-unwritten in our history-if actionable empathy was stronger than societal apathy, silence & disbelief of our shared reality. My heart goes to #Texas' families 💔😭! #Love

Aww, I'm late for sharing our #NoKings protest photos from Englewood, FL, to @hcrichardson.bsky.social's post inviting us to share them! Hiya, Heather, my Mom joined us, too! 🥹 We had about 400 people join us which is big for our town! And, we have our own group called #TheEnglewoodFLResistance 💙.

Hiya, friends! 3 Protests, 1 Post! May 17th, 24th, & 31st 💙💪. Although today, we had our protest cut short by Mother Nature's rain! P.S. Don't forget about the national "No Kings!" June 14th protest!

Douglas Vernon Herbrank/Hebrank is the man from our #TheEnglewoodFLResistance May 17th protest that had threatened us, came far too close to our fellow protesters, & asked me out when I firmly told him to back away. He is a danger to himself & to others. The 2nd image has my full IG story on this...

Cheers to another fantastic protest in Englewood, FL, today with my Mom! Minus a drunk MAGA harassing us from his bicycle, then creepily asking me out after I firmly told him to back away from another protester after blowing our whistles at him - it was a great day! 💙🤓

Sat was amazing! My Mom & I went to 2 protests in Florida & had a wonderful time! The honks we all received were gleefully relentless, & we will cherish these memories forever as this was my Mom's 1st ever protest! 🥹 She had a blast, hehe. #HandsOff #CharlotteCountyDems #TheEnglewoodFLResistance

Awww, cute! For those nice folks who replied to my posts today, hang loosely for my replies! As I must hop off & finish mine & my Mom's protest signs for tomorrow! 🥹 It'll be her first protest! Rem.: be peaceful, ignore the haters, & have fun! #50501movement #Democracy #Humanity #Love #Freedom 💙

🧵Their cruel inhumanity makes me sick, which I'd rather feel instead of feeling nothing. As for a society that becomes numb and apathetic to administrative injustice, corruption, demonization, violence, and death against human beings...

(I added ALT text which includes writing from The Other 98%.)
Posted from The Other 98% Facebook page: "The cruelty truly is the point with this administration. Just today the official White House twitter feed posted an AI generated cartoon of an American ice agent handcuffing a woman with brown skin who is sobbing. This is torture porn, plain and simple. This was posted on the same day that “puppy killer” Kristi Noem, our new Secretary of Homeland Security shared a video standing in front of the humanitarian crisis of a prison in El Salvador that America should be shutting down, not using as a cudgel to threaten people with. I’m old enough to remember in the Iraq war when pictures were released of smiling US troops in front of people undergoing horrific conditions in America’s torture prison, Abu Ghraib. Back then, it was the biggest scandal of the year; the shame of America. But now it’s literally just a photo op from the current administration to satiate the bloodlust of the Maga horde that wants to see their administration being the cruel bullies that they keep promising to be; the cruel bullies inside everyone of them that only seem to find happiness in the suffering of others. I don’t think this fight is between the left and right anymore. I’m not even sure if it’s between the haves and the have nots; the rich and the poor. I’m pretty sure our new existential struggle is between decent human beings with human compassion and empathy vs a bunch of monstrous bullies that just wanna get their way in the world through brute force, no matter how many people they have to crush to do so. We truly are in the battle for the soul of America and we cannot let them win."

Every action that Trump's administration is doing has actual blood on their hands and is affecting citizens in Republican-dominated states much higher than in Democratic ones.

Meme of an upside down American flag as a sign that our nation is under duress with the hashtag #HesNotMyPresident on top. The caption reads: "Every action that Trump's administration is doing has actual blood on their hands and is affecting citizens in Republican-dominated states much higher than in Democratic ones." A link to historian Heather Cox Richardson's March 17th, 2025 is posted: https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/march-17-2025 #NotMyPresident #WeThePeople #RiseUp #CivilRightsMovement #Democracy

Back then, they wanted to "make peace" with Hitler. Now, they want us to "make peace" w/Putin. I would love for us to revolutionize ourselves so much that we stop these traumatically harmful and deadly cycles. This is up to us to bring this idea into our shared existence as peacefully as possible!

1/2 Our @50501movement.bsky.social protest in #PuntaGordaFL was a big hit! Here's a link to my FB page where I dive into our great experiences from *my* 1st protest ever even though I've been a social media activist for 10+ years! How embarrassing 🙈. My link explains my errors and my personality!...

Awww!!!! 1. Same here, I never knew about this place, so thank you 🥹! 2. A flower vine named Gloriosa superba l., is (at least at the time I researched about them 3+ years ago) the national symbol for Zimbabwe. They randomly sprung up in our backyard, and I was obsessed with learning about her! 🌿💚🤓

👏 The only way to be able to make it into us having 2026 elections is for our leadership, and us, to rise up in a true democratic opposition *now!* Imagine that, NY isn't just protesting against 47, your citizens are protesting for you to stand up with them and the rest of the US. 🗽 #DemLeadership

Oh, I thought everything was left for "the states to decide"?? Now we have King rule? If I had an audience with my MAGA family in this space, my post would make them run. They already unfollowed me on IG-post 2025, so they won't see my stories of truth. Cowards!

2/2 ...I can't follow folks who influence a violent culture against those we're civically fighting against b/c activists resorting to violence to achieve our goals is precisely what will help their fascism be stronger. As left/right extremists serves fascism as 45's tool for deploying the 1807 Act.
This slide created by activist Whitney Alese says: "Don't let what we are witnessing harden you. Yes it's heartbreaking. Yes it's devastating. Yes it's painful. That very pain that you are still able to feel is an affirmation of your humanity. Fight to hold on to it. Fight to maintain it. Fight to keep your heart soft. Remain fiercely human."

1/2. Hiya, friends! I want to point out that the key words here are "Civil disobedience." As much as 45/47's feverish foot soldiers are trained both in mind and body to unleash violence against our humanity, we can't fall prey to using violence proactively or as post-revenge. In good conscience...
This meme says: "Civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty when the state has become lawless or corrupt." Attributed to Mahatma Gandhi.

I am so used to Facebook and Instagram that I'm having such a hard time paying attention to Bluesky, lol! Oh, my silly ADHD shenanigans! P.S. There's a protest tomorrow in Sarasota, Florida! #Protest #WeAreTheResistance #PeoplePower #Humanity #Democracy #EconomicBlackoutFeb28th #CivilRightsMovement

Come meet the White men who have ushered in Christian, patriarchal, racist, and heterosexual fascism against us all. If we work as an effective collective, we CAN resist much of this enough to completely liberate ourselves from it over some years of hard work. #Resist #Liberation (Link in🧵.)
