Now's a good time to read or reread 1984 and throw in some Animal Farm too.

I read both in High school and recently read them again... In High school, I thought "how did they let this happen?"

Right now, I'm thinking "how can we slow this down from happening?"

You may want to prepare yourself for the coming Trump administration by rereading George Orwell’s “1984” if it’s been a while.

Your anger is valid.
YOUR RAGE IS SACRED.

Channel it, wield it, use it to protect what’s yours.

They can try to control you, but they’ll never control the inferno inside you.

Burn bright, sisters. 🔥✊

Takes like this are nuts. How did Trump justify his last couple hundred pardons, one more nakedly obscene, political and personal than the next? Answer - he didn’t. Trump doesn’t bother justifying or explaining anything He does what he wants. Always has, always will. Wake up.

Every single Presidential appointment is supposed to swear an oath to defend and protect the Constitution over all else.

If there is any legitimate reason to think that ANY nominee would be more loyal to Donald Trump than to the Constitution, they are not qualified to hold that position.

Quite right. It’s not a he-gseth / she-gseth situation.
No mother “accidentally” tells her son he’s a piece of shit when it comes to women.

Now that they destroyed their own neighborhood, the Maga/Elon trolls are rolling in to BlueSky.

My recommendation is to block early, on the first offense, without explanation.

Here are my rules why I block them:

I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.

I spent my childhood behind barbed wire. My parents lost everything. 1/
