Reminder to those who need it:

1. You can mute the name of the current president and/or anyone else you don't want to constantly hear about here

2. You can mute/block/unfollow accounts that impinge on your calm

3. Social media doesn't have to be a doom scroll, curate your feed to make you happy

What a joke. Tiktok is state media now. Don't think they won't do whatever Trump says in terms of content moderation and the algorithm.

Now TikTok is back up for American users with a notice thanking Donald Trump for the extension and Dems continue to look like they got played.
Just so we’re all clear:

-Dems bend over backwards to Netanyahu’s every whim carrying through with financing a genocide, Bibi wants Trump to win and it costs Dems the election.

-At the request of Netanyahu, the Tiktok Ban bill is Revived under a Dem President, closer tying it to Biden moreso

Democrats are so fucked…

Now 170 million Americans who saw Biden sign the bill banning the app will watch as Trump “saves” it.

Me: glad to see more articles like this.

Also Me: sitting here wishing there were more articles on parent caregivers of disabled children.

Food for thought
One thing I think people talking about the threat of authoritarian creep have gotten, if not exactly wrong, not quite right either is to frame discussion in terms of various European precedents.

Those are relevant to be sure, but we also have an American precedent - namely the South before 1965.

Could the Supreme Court roll back same-sex marriage during a Trump administration?

Good article, generally, but I also have a bone to pick.

There are key protections for same-sex marriage. Some LGBTQ couples are worried they could be undone.

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

One approach no one seems to be considering is that Democratic politicians could try being LESS strategic and just say what they actually think.

Cackles in empathy/apology as a former southern Californian who now lives in the rural PNW.
I just landed in LA and my hotel is 12 miles from the airport and in no universe did I expect the trip would be NINETY MINUTES.

The Democrats don’t need to be “pushed to the left,” the Democratic Party needs to rid itself of corporate interests and dark money.

That in itself will correct so many of the issues.

The majority of the people want Medicare for All, tuition-free college, and don’t want war.

If someone with felonies can be President, those with felonies should be able to vote, to secure housing, employment, and student loans.

They have a DACA Fund collection, 100% of the profits from which is used to fund DACA applications and provide support through the process. And some really cute stuff!
