I voraciously consume information. Desert botany worshipper, lover of all fauna, activist for both. Feminist as fuck. Old and not taking any shit. Not down with fascists or the morally bankrupt. Old jazz is my jam.

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us

Seems odd that we never talk about the fact that Donald Trump's father-in-law was born in the USSR, was a member of the Communist Party for decades, has been accused of crimes, and worked for the state after Yugoslavia detached from the USSR
He also always had more money than anyone could explain

KEEP SHARING YOUR STORIES about increased ACA premiums due to the disappearance of subsidies. The stories clearly are having an impact, they help people feel less helpless, and they create solidarity that leads to action.
Mine went from $395→ $821. What happened for you?

Why shouldn't it? Damn warring men who only want to oppress women--it's absolute bullshit! Tear it down! No more no more no more!!!
There is little doubt that the “Great Feminization” discourse will help (further) normalize misogyny on the right and drive women farther left. Perhaps that is actually the point. ICYMI @cathyyoung63.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/right-gran...

I don’t talk about this publicly, but hegseth drives me out of my silence.
I attended West Point from 1998-2000. I left, along with about 5 other young women, as a direct result of the military’s then-shameful (non) policies addressing sex harassment and assault.

All I can say is, the Dems had better get on the same page across the caucus and be unmovable. Anybody with a brain knows is the Republicans who are ruining this country so anyone who cries wolf about a shutdown can just pound sand.
The Trump administration is expecting a government shutdown come Wednesday and there are no current plans to negotiate with Democratic leadership, according to a senior White House official.“We’re ...
‘They will pay a huge price for this’: Shutdown-ready Trump expects Democrats to blink

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys.
Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman.
There is no justification for this. None.

Does America care about these kids? Will tears be shed in Washington D.C. for them? Will people even know their names?
At least three teenagers were in critical condition after being shot Wednesday afternoon on the grounds of Evergreen High School. The suspected shooter was among the three.

Students were eating lunch when they heard the gunshots. It’s yet another horrific school shooting, and every time my heart breaks for the kids, parents, and communities shattered by gun violence.
We can’t stop demanding change. Congress can and must pass gun safety legislation.

General Strike, anyone??? Is it our only option in the current moment? We can vote, but I have no confidence in that now.
Speaking of voting, all Dem governors should revert to paper ballots / mail-in voting. If we can't recount because of digital software then we are screwed.

Patriotic and sane Americans need a website where we can track via statements of facts.
Part 1 -- I need to see a full list of US Citizens, green card holders and other legal residents who have been detained by this administration (ICE, etc) since January 21st. We need to keep track of every one.

I made a point at Costco today to ask if they have indeed removed Mifepristone from their drug list as I have heard they did. I asked at both the pharmacy and the membership desk. I told them I joined Costco because they chose to continue their DEI policy under pressure and if they cave now I'm gone
