This should never be the case. It is terrible levels of cruelty. These children should be with families, not in “jail.”

I just followed Anna because of this post thread. I feel like it is VERY apt and timely. I do feel like more and more of the masses are starting to feel an ever tightening pinch and pain. And I think there is a standard for movements here against such things. It’ll be interesting to see what comes.

I play Minecraft. Got into years ago to connect with my kids who were loving it. I just found a Trial Chamber for the first time. I’ve gotten some very neat loot. Best ones? A copper disc and a semi ox’ed copper disc. I played them in the jukebox. I cried a bit. Not sure why, but it just got me. 💜

Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg is someone whom I have followed for years now on various platforms. Her voice of reason and belief has guided me on a number of issues, all while I personally follow no religion and she is a leader in hers. These two lists are so apt for these days. Read them and take care 💙.

I love this idea! We have gotten our kids a number of books on world history, science, and such. But I never considered an atlas! Thank you so much for the thought!!! 💜💜

It’s been a long day. But now it’s late. I’m tired, finishing off a drink, scrolling. I just read yet another thing the “admin” did, paused, chuckled sadly, and said, I really hate it here. So… putting down the phone and going to bed. Neither my heart nor my mind can take any more nonsense tonight.

This opinion piece earned a follow from me. So well written, breaking down various different issues with the entire fiasco. The final discussion of political power is both fascinating and terrifying. I suggest everyone read this!

Well, those details sure as hell weren’t your average grocery list. I’d say they look an awful lot like plans for direct actions to be taken during a war…. “War plans.”

This is awesome! And I know it may feel like “not enough” but as we’ve all learned, even doing anything is better than nothing! Join and contribute when and where you are able! 💙💙💙

Medicaid cuts? Read this: “Nationally, 1 in 5 people are on Medicaid, according to KFF. That includes nearly 2 in 5 children, 1 in 6 adults, over 1 in 4 adults with disabilities, almost 1 in 2 children with special healthcare needs, and 5 in 8 nursing home residents.” www.aol.com/finance/medi...
aol.com
Medicaid goes by many names. Will Americans realize if it gets cut?
States, which administer federal Medicaid funds, often change the name of the program to get more people to sign up. Studies find this causes confusion about who benefits from the program.

On the hunt for a graphic meme artist. I’m thinking of the “Trump yelling at the kid mowing the lawn.” But instead of a kid, it’s a cybertruck, and Trump is yelling something about protecting it against signs hurting its feelings. We live in a bizarre time. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Trump says he will buy a 'new Tesla' to show support for Musk
U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he will buy a new Tesla car to show support for the electric carmaker's chief and his ally Elon Musk amid recent "Tesla Takedown" protests and the slump in the company's stock price.

This is long, 28mins. And still it is so worth your time and attention! Seb Murphy goes through the first 6 weeks of corruption/money grabs by this admin. Just lays it all out on a simple timeline. It’s appalling!! We can’t get rid of this admin and its enablers fast enough. youtu.be/hycoCYenXls?...

Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg is someone I have admired and followed from platform to platform. Her thoughts and words shine a light in our dark times. I don’t use Substack as a writer, only as a subscriber to so many people. This Ghost appears to be a legit replacement. Go and check it out.

I wonder if all the Dems who said they wouldn’t vote for Harris due to her stance on Palestine are happy with this news from Trump? apnews.com/article/trum... “Trump said he wants the U.S. to take ownership of the Gaza Strip and redevelop it after Palestinians are resettled elsewhere.”
apnews.com
Trump won't rule out deploying US troops to support rebuilding Gaza, sees 'long-term' US ownership
President Donald Trump said he won’t rule out deploying U.S. troops to support reconstruction of Gaza and that envisions “long-term” U.S. ownership of a redevelopment of the territory.

I can only hope that the Dems and a few Repubs will stand up and vote NO on these three!!!

This is a very encouraging thread about continuing even our own small efforts because perhaps they will be adopted by more like-minded folks! Also, there may already be others out there doing the same work and we just need to find them. 💙

I am incredibly thankful for all the reporters and journalists who are watching today’s activities and reporting on it so that I do not need to. Special thanks to @underthedesknews.bsky.social and @aaronparnas.bsky.social for always being such good humans while they report. 💙💙

I was out shopping and when I got home, checked my phone. Noticed that I weirdly had notifications on TikTok. Opened it and saw this message that Pres Trump (ummm not Pres yet) had fixed it and TT was back! Oooooook. Feeling very much like I may be staying off it for a bit. That is 😬
Image of phone app for TikTok. Message reads: Welcome back! Thanks for your patience and support. As a result of President Trump’s efforts, TikTok is back in the U.S.! You can continue to create, share, and discover all the things you love on TikTok. 
Time stamp is 4:34pm PST on Sunday, 19 January 2025.

I was just commenting my long-winded self on someone’s post, and I was overjoyed to see that once I blazed past the character limit, I was able to continue. Then I was able to go back and truncate where I could in order to meet the limit! Being able to see the whole comment and edit that way is 😘!

Introductions… I am pro: logic, empathy, sensible gun control, vaccines, abortion, black and brown lives matter, reading, LGBTQ+, education, experience, art, science, and yes, animals. I block with ease anyone who violates these issues.
