How appropriate, that the sky has clouded over and it’s dark outside today. We will not be celebrating anything about this country because now is when the real work begins. #generalstrike #mutualaid #communitybuilding

Watching a German content creator call out our descent into fascism really snapped me hard into the reality of what is happening in real time in the USA and apparently with seeds in other countries, too. I always thought I’d live a relatively normal life. There is nothing normal about this.

Can anyone who works with chatGPT tell me why it no longer has access to current event information? When asked about important events referring to this administration it tells me it has nothing before 2023. Yet on Jan 19, I was able to pull info on TikTok ban with info being cited from news sources.

Everyone needs to know about the bill that was introduced by Arizona republican #AndyBiggs : H-res-7 which promotes nationwide “women’s health centers” are run by pro-life gynos and aim to fight against #abortion.

I can’t believe we are living through this and no one is stopping it.

#Tiktok might be back up in the USA but it is massively different. Lots of censorship rn. My old account has been blocked from accessing without VPN so created a new one which is just fine. Also, lots of right wing propaganda on there. We’re cooked.

Last night, while saying goodbye to the community of folx on #TikTok, the app went dark. It was a surreal moment, like the door shutting on something, closing me out from my community and the world around me. Feels like very dark times ahead.

Regular Americans terrified about Biden’s farewell speech talking about oligarchy. Yeah, us Leftists and Bernie Sanders have been saying this for a long time but you just had to push your vote blue no matter who agenda.

The cultural exchange with the Chinese is incredible. Such a warm welcome they have given us and now people from Europe are following Americans, ditching Meta and coming to 小红书.

So, Suckerberg really tried to slam Apple saying they haven’t invented anything new in a while.. this coming from the guy that stole FB and had to bribe congress to shut his competitor down. 😂

Learning my way around RedNote and meeting lots of lovely Chinese people. The US government sure did lie to us about so much re. China.
