Steps taken this week to unf*** my life: Started an antidepressant (prescribed for arthritis pain); reminded myself I have to take iron daily or I can’t function; downloaded Ecosia for my default browser.

No news organization should ever use the words "third term" without the word "unconstitutional" preceding it

Not sure if this has been shared here yet, but this is video of Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest posted by WCVB. It's terrifying.

I know I’m supposed to be watching my carbs but the local tamale place delivers, so of course I had to order them.

We are fighting like hell to stop Musk’s staffers. They come into our buildings, forcibly removing us with the FBI, U.S. Marshals, and police. This coup must be stopped.

I don’t know how long this has been open to comments but this is the first time I’m hearing about it, it’s Saturday night, and comments close in 3 hours…
The government is about to give OpenAI the ability to legally steal if we do not flood this page in the next 12 hours.

OpenAI will have immunity from all lawsuits regarding copyright infringement. All other AI companies will follow.

I’m passing on a mutual aid request for a friend going back to school for job training to stabilize their family’s finances. Please consider giving, or share. Details in replies.

I don’t understand the criticisms of Meghan Markle’s Netflix show. I only found one issue: that she treated homemade refrigerator jam as though it could stay good outside the fridge.

I finally got to watch Rep. Zoe Zephyr’s recent testimony on a drag bill in Montana. Very moving— and then a GOP rep stood up to support Zephyr, and used traditional conservative talking points (parents rights, etc.) to argue down the bill. State legislatures are where the action is!

Bernie Sanders is holding MASSIVE rallies in packed venues, bigger crowds than Trump was getting, and legacy media is practically silent. Bernie is talking to workers rather than hanging out with socialites with mediocre plastic surgery at Mar-a-Lago, and it's just not interesting to corporate media

Higher education has historically been a bulwark against authoritarianism — or its pawn. What’ll it be this time?

You don’t have to have every answer. Doing what you can is critical.

We need fuckloads of people doing okay at and trying to getting better at fighting facism. We need every person we can get to be the bystanders intervening.

Break the surface tension. This isn’t normal. Say so. Act like it.

RFK Jr. has had all of his own children vaccinated (he confirmed this 3 weeks ago). He just wants other people to not vaccinate their children. Especially Black people for some reason… He even required his guests to get COVID vaccines before coming to his party. www.thedailybeast.com/robert-f-ken...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Happy to realize that my Target Circle membership (which renewed before the boycott) can be used to shop at other places on the Shipt app. Now that fee won’t go to waste and I won’t be supporting @target.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.
