@annettedobler.bsky.social hi!

My (not original, but hopefully well-synthesized) take on the ongoing #coup in the #USA right now.

The Logic of Destruction

Trump’s tariffs are driving up prices for us, while driving down demand for U.S. exports in Canada and Mexico.

This why you don’t trust your country’s economic policies to someone who bankrupted 5 casinos.

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you

"I want to speak directly to Americans," says Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. "This is a choice that will harm Canadians...but will have real consequences for you."

The universe speaks in mysterious ways.

The *least* you can do:

Refuse to patronize businesses that (1) disrespect Jimmy Carter - and the law - and (2) seek to ingratiate themselves to the orange shitgibbon & his flying monkeys by raising their flag to full staff before Jan. 28.

Sending love to all my friends in the USA today and sharpening my pen in preparation for this next chapter. Look after one another out there and keep on singing.

Here’s what FTC did to protect Americans for 4y&how it’s stopping now. What’s wrong w/MSM that they hide these facts from voters?

The big news on MSM is telling us that Trump got on Air Force One last night?

Support independent news like your life depends on it-because it does!

Excellent article on the #politics of #clean lifestyles...

«When someone alludes to “clean” healthfulness — from clean living to clean drinking — someone somewhere is carrying the burden of being “dirty.”»

Monday morning we are entering a new chapter in this country's history and we are entering it together, with our friends and principles held close and our eyes wide open.

Remember: no mandate, no majority. 37.75% of the electorate didn't vote; 31.5% voted for him; 30.6% voted for her.

Rolly's Lord's Prayer:
Our mother in abundant earth
unnamed and in all words we remember you
flow through all creation
in the darkness and in the light
awaken us sustain us consume us keep us forever in your embrace
for you are wisdom and beauty and love eternal

I stand by this pledge that Rolly wrote:

I pledge allegiance to Earth
and to her life abundant
One planet
Indivisible
With liberty and justice for all

These outfits are on another level. More interesting than what you see coming out of Paris and NYC most seasons. I love the keyboard skirt.
