Foul-mouthed rebel with too many causes probably. David Bowie and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy are the closest things I have to religion. Breast cancer survivor. Neurospicy and extra stretchy. I have a kind heart and a mean right cross.

Paper tickets to concerts may not be necessary for attending, but making stickers out of ticktets that you can take home from the show would really help some of us emotionally.

I have a thoughtful & holistic care plan to approach my health issues. I won’t have to take a bunch of pills, and I’ll be rebuilding my strength. Even as much as all this will likely hurt physically, I’m looking forward to progress. Now what to do with the more existential crises at hand?

Adoption is an alternative to parenting, not to pregnancy. Abortion is an alternative to pregnancy. People need to understand the difference. Pregnancy is not a health neutral state. It can cause serious harm. No one should be forced to remain pregnant who doesn’t want to be.

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)
KNOW YOUR
RIGHTS
IN CASE OF ICE:
CONOCE TUS DERECHOS
EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR.
ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge.
Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door.
NO ABRAS TU PUERTA.
ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.ASK THEM
TO LEAVE.
If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission.
2
PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN.
Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.REMAIN SILENT.
You have the right to remain silent.
If the agents ask you questions, tell them,
"I wish to remain silent."
PERMANECE EN SILENCIO.
Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio.
Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles:
"Deseo permanecer en silencio".

Federal contractors work for the Federal Government and Federal employees. No one elected Rocket Boy. Congress holds the purse strings for new Federal offices or agencies. DOGE doesn’t actually exist! No contractor owes jack shit cooperation to Rocket Boy, his band of Lost Boys, or DOGE.
Excerpt from a Washington Post article: “materials and issue "a declaration that Treasury's policy change is unlawful and unconstitutional."
An outside review conducted by a federal contractor found an "unprecedented insider threat risk" at the Treasury Department as a result of DOGE's access to the vital payment network that provides a necessary function to the entire U.S. economy.
The contractor, Booz Allen Hamilton, recommended that DOGE's access to the agency's network be cut "immediately," The Washington Post reported Friday.”

"The tragic irony of modern anti-fascism is that the more successful it is, the more its raison d'etre is called into question. Its greatest successes lie in hypothetical limbo: How many murderous fascist movements have been nipped in the bud over the past 70 years by antifa groups before their violence could metastasize? We will never know--and that's a very good thing indeed."

An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government. DOGE is not a real government agency. DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions. DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law. DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

If you’re a federal employee, you should know this is a lie. Congress hasn’t appropriated these monies and so it’s literally not there to be spent. Also, federal agencies are limited by law to a max $25K payout in the case of restructuring.
