Reporters: stop saying Los Angeles is under curfew.
Downtown is under curfew. That is a small part of Los Angeles. Everyone else is going about their regularly scheduled lives out in the open and rolling their eyes at all of this.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

unfun thing about the Trump admin coming back is that every insane policy gets to be serious when he says it and a joke when you criticize it for being insane. Can’t wait for four more years of this.

No women will lead a House committee for the first time in two decades after House Republicans revealed their list of committee leaders for the 119th Congress. No people of color were selected, either.

Additional scripts for cis het white men who want to be better allies:
“What a weird thing to say”
“Do you hear yourself right now?”
“You shouldn’t say shit like that to people”
“I won’t let you talk to them that way”
“That’s a disgusting opinion to have”
“Shut the fuck up, dude”

Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man
The responsibility for resisting and correcting this behavior shouldn’t fall solely on a specific gender. If you’re a man of conscience and you see another man mimicking Nick Fuentes, fuck him up on sight before the women even get a chance. I mean that.
