Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power - file impeachment articles every day in the House - withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee - be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

I take on average 10,000 stills and a half hour of video every week. Most I'll never think about again. This I'll hold onto until I grow old. 4 hours ago. Zero edits. No recoloring. No cropping. Nothing. Just straight up reality. 🦑

One of our country's greatest war criminals just died, the president is arguing with himself about whether or not to let 40 million people starve, and there is an actual courtroom drama about a five dollar footlong. How are any of us supposed to maintain emotional regulation.

This feels significant
Kentucky’s Republican secretary of state, Michael Adams, has reminded residents of his state that they cannot, in fact, vote in today’s New York City mayor’s race — or at all. Perhaps because of intense election coverage by national news outlets, Kentucky officials were getting calls about the polls being closed. But Kentucky has no elections scheduled today.

“Kentucky votes next year,” Adams wrote in a social media post. “You cannot vote today in Kentucky for the mayor of New York City or the Governor of Virginia. Sorry.”

Uninformed voters weren't voting for the GOP because of policy but because of vibes. Moving right on issues does nothing for them because they don't know what the issues even are.

I keep seeing people say things like, “Well we’re not going to HAVE elections,” and with all due respect, I think this is both wildly pessimistic and also wildly naive. We are not going to have free and fair elections. We also have not had them in the past.

better yet, consider unsubscribing from HBO/Max the week before her show comes out (& if you rejoin, wait until the HP season is over). it's not enough to *not* watch it – HBO needs to know it will hurt their bottom line if they continue producing it

Somehow the "We need to support policies that are popular" crowd never land on the very popular polices like "taxing big corporation more," "making health care more affordable," or "paying teachers more." It's always just "be 10% more racist."

It's funny how when you ask them why they think Pope Francis was "too woke" and request specific examples, they always wound up describing Christ's teachings without a hint of self-awareness.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

It’s very discouraging to watch our country slowly re-learn the lessons that led to the end of segregation, among them that people who think they’re racially superior are nearly universally incompetent fools unable to face up to their own deficiencies and putting them in charge is suicide

The antidote isn’t just exposing the con — it’s refusing to play along. And for God’s sake, stop looking for heroes. Democracy is collective resistance, or it’s dead. No democracy has survived what we’re facing. Think that’s hyperbole? Go read Weimar’s obituary. #resistancehistory

Can we stop talking throwing around words like "autocracy" and "oligarchy" when talking about America's uncertain future? According to history, political experts, and a little-known book called "a dictionary," America is ALREADY in the throes of fascism.

I have a suggestion for you. In times of trouble and strife, there is therapeutic benefit in being among trees and in physical contact with them. So if you can, go hug a tree today, the bigger the better. This huge old chinkapin oak is known as The Great God Tree.
