just from a folklore point of view, "attractive hooded man kills billionaire head of hated business with bullets inscribed with political slogans and then vanishes" is narratively breathtaking

I spoke to my therapist today about the anxiety and fear I feel leading up to January. How fearful I am that I won't be able to do anything about injury to marginalized communities. He reminded me that there will come a point when I know I need to act, and that was a strangely calming sentiment.

I hope folks remember that boycotting is a privilege some don’t have. Poor folks shop at Walmart. Disabled folks shop on Amazon.

We do what we can. Shaming others isn’t the way.

From here on out and until it is determined otherwise in a court of law, always refer to him as to what he is:

The Felon or Felon 47.

Never let up. Make him wear it.

Do it because it pisses off MAGAs; and will give you a bunch of dumbasses to block. 😉

Watching the news cycle around Hunter Biden is just shameful in the context of comparison. The double standard applied to the left is mind boggling. I can see the privileges at work here, but no one is anywhere close to as outraged about Trump doing ANYTHING.

Compared to the list of Traitor Tot's pardons, hunter Biden is an absolute angel.

When you worship power, compassion and mercy will look like sins.

When you worship power, the harsher the treatment towards your "enemies," the more righteous it will look.

When you worship power, the value and dignity of others is solely measured by their conformity to you.

Good morning, Blue Sky.

Being resilient is easier when you're surrounded by the right people.

Build communities that make you smarter and tougher for the battles ahead.

Never give up hope. Never stop fighting for what is right. And just.

Whatever comes our way, we will face it together.

What is it I am missing for accountability measures? We have watched the festering of a blatantly corrupt SCOTUS (which was thoroughly protested), and now objectively questionable cabinet picks. I keep hearing #resist but HOW? And WHO, and WHEN?

Forced myself to go back to church last week. The guest pastor there compared this period of time to having seen the trailer for "The Empire Strikes Back" as a kid. I think what's so deeply upsetting to me is watching the "faithful" align themselves to the empty promises of empire.
