This is a protest sign, black lettering on a white poster board, that says, “Another Disappointing Day in the Obituaries.”

A lot of self described Christians seem to be banking on there not actually being a hell.

TW ⚠️ This is the pink jacket lady’s angle. (From Drop Site News) Horrific. Bovino is a stone cold liar. Pretti wasn’t attacking officers, he had just helped a lady they assaulted and had gotten pepper sprayed.

I cannot, during these horrific times, recommend enough the importance of making pockets of time to just do things that are not related to anything but the joy of being alive and playing. You need it. You do. It will keep you whole. Which we need. We need you whole.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland. And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

I refuse to stay silent while Secretary Noem breaks the rule of law and terrorizes our communities. I am introducing Articles of Impeachment against her for violating the public trust, obstructing Congress, and self-dealing. Read my full statement: robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

Why aren’t blue state governors refusing to fund this criminal enterprise? When will citizens follow suit?

"I believe ardently that nonviolent resistance is in the big picture and the long term the most effective strategy, but that doesn't mean it must be polite, placid, or please our opponents, not least because nothing ever will and they'll lie and distort no matter what."
This is a moment when solidarity is essential, and we weaken our cause with internal squabbling about tactics, the necessity or inadequacy of nonviolent strategies, and the rest. Keep your eyes on the enemy and the big picture. I also believe that those of us who are older, whiter, safer from the threats of state violence do not have the moral ground to lecture the younger, browner and blacker, more directly impacted demographic on what they should and should not do. As Martin Luther King, Jr., our great prophet of nonviolence, said: "In the final analysis, a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it that America has failed to hear?” They'll hear it now, if they listen to the people directly, or pick media sources that are not corrupted by deference to police and Trumpist versions when those versions are lies. Because lies are also a kind of violence, violence against the truth, against the compact we have that words describe realities, and we live in a shared reality. Lies are also thefts of our right to know what the speaker knows, sabotage of that shared reality, of meaning itself.

It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic. When the fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.

Kelly Hayes. Love her mind. “Claiming time and space for justice, for life, for empathy, and for joy in bleak times is defiant work. … If we want to do more than live in the shadow of destructive forces, we must build and support projects that bring our values to life in the world.”

"In honor of Brian Thompson, and in the hope that no leader ever meets such an awful fate, let us immediately pass universal healthcare once and for all. If we do, the words “deny” and “delay” will become distant memories, never to be seen on insurance company letters or bullets again."

It’s the conditions, stupid
Deplore violence. Then ask why it's happening

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive
