Amazing to live in a country where every day you can watch Republicans gin up issue salience out of nothing but attitude and 4chan posts and a sizeable chunk of people think Democrats' only power is to vote yes or no on bills placed in front of them

Purdue to the rescue of IU student newspaper, whose institution was attempting censorship. Details in alt!

I'm sure many of you have heard by now that earlier this week, IU k*lled the print edition of its student paper, the IDS. The issue that was supposed to print this week contained criticism of the Whitten regime and IUs further slide into scist control, and they couldn't allow that to happen during Homecoming, when all the rich alumni are in town.
Enter Purdue! The Purdue student paper, The Exponent, owns its own presses. Yesterday, in an act of tremendous solidarity with their biggest rival school, they printed the forbidden issue of the IDS. They then drove it to Bloomington overnight and stocked all of the IDS boxes on campus, just in time for Homecoming.
Solidarity is what makes us stronger, and solidarity will be what ultimately allows us to triumph, if we can ever truly get it together. I hope everyone has a fun, safe day if they're going out today, and I hope we can think about what acts of solidarity we can begin taking to really make this movement MOVE - beyond a permitted expression of upset into more active resistance.

Indy families don’t need more political drama. They need affordable housing, safer neighborhoods, better jobs, and real solutions that lift everyone. That’s the Winning Approach. Let’s climb.

Every time Indy turned out, Democrats won big. Obama in 2008. Donnelly in 2012. Bayh before that. We were the engine of statewide victories. But now? We’re running on empty. It doesn’t have to stay this way. If we rebuild, we can win again.

We’re building a #PeoplesMovement. Today, over 3 million people across the country stood up to say HANDS OFF our democracy.  And history shows that when just 3.5% of the population engages in sustained, peaceful resistance—transformative change is inevitable. #50501movement #HandsOff #April5

I worry that we spend more time being mad at people causing harm than we do trying to decrease or mitigate the harm.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

This does not mean ignoring the rain or trying to convince anyone that it isn't raining, but this is a mentality we are going to need to embrace for a while.

Driving into work on this dark wintry morning, thinking about our moment & about folks I respect saying that “the America we’ve known is over” & the like. Saw the montage I’ve built next to my office door, & wanted to say a little about the America I know. 🗃️ Thread+

Me, stuck in the house all weekend: I have nothing to eat! Why didn't I go grocery shopping before it snowed? Me, last night, in the grocery store: Yuck. I don't need any of this garbage. I have better stuff at home. Me, today: What food did I think I had here, again? Sigh.

If you look hard enough, you can find something to hate about anyone. If you look hard enough, you can also find something to love. You find what you look for, and everyone is complicated. Be careful what you look for.

Love is a form of resistance. Compassion is resistance. Curiosity is resistance. Always have been. Resist our worst instincts.
