Remember when Pence got called out at a performance of Hamilton and Kavanaugh had to leave out the back of a Morton's Steakhouse because protesters were screaming at him outside because of Roe v Wade?
Let's make life unpleasant and humiliating for these motherfuckers.

Don’t let these fuckers go anywhere without getting booed. Fuck polls. Fuck podcasts. Just show up, in person, to wherever these cretins go and boo the shit out of them
Incredible. Rail fans at LA Union Station heckle and boo Duffy’s remarks at the press conference where he has announced an FRA investigation into CA High Speed Rail.
They yell “Cowards!” “Build the Rail!” and “We Pay Taxes, We Want the Train!” #IWillRide

This is how they think about the rest of the world.
No one is considered an ally.

If all you are doing is immersing yourself in the horrors of the world and you are so far down the moral injury burnout well that you are screaming at others for not joining you in it, you need to read this old thread.

Not trying to armchair diagnose or anything, but a whole lot of people who are constantly screaming at other people about Causes on social media exhibit A LOT of behaviors that would make me put them on moral injury burnout leave if they were T&S agents I was managing
I am frankly not much use to anyone - friends, family, anyone I might use what resources I have to help - if I am constantly living in a black hole of despair
and neither, I think, is anyone else

Polkadots on windows reduced bird collisions by 95% - my news to me good news for Jan 21. #EarthOptimism #BeyondTheObituaries www.goodgoodgood.co/articles/bir...
Innovative 'polka dot' glass is saving thousands of birds from deadly window collisions
In October 2023, a thousand birds died in a single day after colliding with a Chicago convention center. Thanks to new bird-friendly glass, that number has shrunk dramatically.
