Remember: fascism thrives on apathy.

The autocrats want you to tune out. They want to overwhelm you. They want you to give up.

Don’t give them want they want.

Stay in this fight. Remain vigilant. And let’s keep building.

A delightful read. Do something simple to brighten someone's day today.
Today I was thinking about small kindnesses, simple inexpensive things that brighten a day, and I thought about how the receptionist at my school saved me from humiliation in front of the Headmaster on account of having left my belt in a vase.

So I guess for MAGA when a Chinese balloon goes over US airspace it’s a week straight of apoplectic comments that WW3 is starting because Biden is weak, but when Trump allows the Qataris to have an airbase in the US and fly fighter jets over our country that is America First.

When/if we ever do have a vote in the House on releasing Epstein files, it will get more than 218 votes. Probably many more. That’s because Republican cowards are happy to hide behind Mike Johnson’s obstruction now, but when it comes time to vote many won’t dare vote no.

And yet, they try to pass the buck, anyway.

Reminder: they could end the shutdown if they don't filibuster. They want the filibuster so some Dems would have to vote yes and then "own" some of the responsibility for the Bombastically Bad Bill.
Hard to blame the Democrats for the shutdown when you're in charge of all 3 branches of government, plus the Supreme Court.

Also: when a government acts brutally and lawlessly and immorally, but tells you that pointing those things out incites violence and terrorism, that government and its agents are entitled to no respect or credence.
If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

I know I don't see everything out there in SocialMediaLand, but I have yet to see any "celebration" of Kirk's killing. Either the occurrences are rare (and they're blowing them out of proportion) or they're seeing anything other than Kirk-worship as "celebration" of his death. 1/2
Keep seeing/hearing news reports of MAGA fury at people celebrating Kirk’s killing (just now, NPR cited Stephen Miller’s outrage about this). But I have yet to see/hear a single example reported of such “celebration” —nothing close to Kirk’s own vile celebration of Paul Pelosi’s hammer attacker.

WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK?!

I agree. While I don't believe anyone should be shot to death, holding up the likes of CK as a "truly Great American Patriot" is BS.

Why half staff for him, but not for school shootings, 60+ people who died in a plane crash, or MN lawmakers?

I'm sorry he died but Kirk was trash, not a martyr.
In no manner was Charlie Kirk a Great American. He was, basically, a trolling white supremacist, anti-LGBTQ college drop-out influencer who profited from division and hate.

Boy I sure do love how it’s always people on the left side of the spectrum who need to be understanding, and nice, and to get out of their echo chambers, but those guys over there? Well, they’re just precious little flowers who don’t need introspection, criticism or anything!

No, friends, this isn't an SNL skit, although Kate McKinnon could take on one of these roles in a hot minute.

This is your new State Library Board.

What in the HeeHaw was SHS thinking? (I already know.)
Via @tessmvrbin.bsky.social: Arkansas public libraries will receive their usual allotments of state funding for the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year, a Department of Education attorney told the new State Library Board during its first meeting Tuesday. #arpx

This. Suppressing this information and telling endless lies doesn't exactly smack of innocence.
Not a hoax‼️ Why is Trump still blocking the release of the Epstein files?

He gave Ghislaine Maxwell a voice before he gave one to the victims she groomed.
