Republicans are determined to shut down the government and crash the economy.

Last night I stood up for those who need Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. Democrats will never abandon the fight to make sure every American has a safe, healthy, and financially secure life. #ISaidWhatISaid

It would almost be more scary if Elon & Trump were *actually* helping people. If they said, see! We're going to raise taxes on the ultra wealthy & lower them for you poors, we're all tightening our belts... They'd have a durable majority ready to ignore all the crazy, hateful, dangerous shit.

🧵 I’ve decided to run against Nancy Pelosi to represent San Francisco in Congress. I know some of you might be surprised that Speaker Emeritus Pelosi is running again, but she is — for her 21st term! We need new leadership in the Democratic Party.

This is absolutely crucial advice. Read it. Read it again. Repeat it to yourself. Do not allow yourself to be overloaded. OVERLOAD IS A DELIBERATE TACTIC.

Honestly it's time for us to just capture the Democratic party and force it to respond to this crisis.
If you are mad and want to do something, take on a role in your local or state party and start bringing the fire and energy.

In some ways, they were carrying forward the Arts and Crafts movement, whose founder William Morris said: “I do not want art for a few, any more than education for a few, or freedom for a few.” Beauty is for everyone—and everyone can be beautifully clothed, should they know how.

choose your cars in such a way that if one literally blows tf up no one goes "oh, again?"
Kinda crazy how no one initially suspected a cybertruck exploding into flames as being intentional because everyone who saw it was like "yeah, they do that sometimes."

You are allowed to celebrate good things that are happening today: your birthday, a book coming out, new baby, new puppy, seeing your favorite piece of art in person, etc.
Joy is the knife that stabs into the heart of despair & apathy.
Feel your joys, big & small, & share them widely & loudly.

Newsome is a fucking asshole
"[P]olice have begun aggressively sweeping homeless encampments. Unhoused residents are given a choice between capacity-challenged shelters, where they’re often separated from family and pets and subjected to dangerous conditions, or jail. This, in a city that’s short several thousand shelter beds."
Newsom Threatens to Defund California Counties That Don't Clear Homeless Encampments | Common Dreams
"Gavin Newsom using a Republican Supreme Court's cruel decision in order to pivot to anti-homeless demagogue is shameful and sleazy," said one critic.

Every time I read articles about extremely wealthy people/companies engaging in unethical behavior to become even more wealthy, I think about this excerpt from the book the psychology of money.
The endless quest for more is so damaging, especially when pursed by those who already have enough.
