Let’s survive this 1000-alarm fire together. Also, not to be morbid, but if you’re going to protest—get a will, health care proxy & power of attorney. If you’re unable to act, you’ll want to appoint someone you trust to act for you. (Free legal advice.)

Senator Warren, I’m one of your constituents. I think you’re wonderful. However for the good of all D’s in Nov, this may be a moment to say less. Like you, I’m originally from the midwest. Our inclination is to reach out, offer generous words. We don’t need to be cruel, just leave out some words:

Oh god, I remember the days after well. I am so very sorry. I have ached harder for my dogs than I have for many humans. Dogs are so much better than us. Over the Rainbow Bridge they go. Sophie is with my Ruby girl.

“The Warmth of Other Suns” by Isabel Wilkerson @isabelwilkerson.bsky.social is the nonfiction narrative for this moment. An amazing dive into The Great Migration, told through the stories of 3 African Americans who upend their lives & take perilous journeys out of the Jim Crow South #RequiredReading

Agreed. The Regan admin & his ilk wouldn’t have fought so hard to end the FD if the FD didn’t support democracy. Excerpts from an article on point. Regan’s FCC guy said TV was an appliance equivalent to a toaster. Quite a tell. sisyphuslitmag.org/2018/07/the-...

If you’re 18 or older, get these done. 👇 👇 👇 IMO now, whether you plan to protest or not, get these done ASAP. You’ll need the docs, a notary, & 2 witnesses in most states. And you need to know what you want. These are really important & not hard to do.

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” George Orwell, 1984

He knows it’s bullshit and knows that when he says it, DJT uses it to grant Miller the ever-expanding unchecked authority that serves the regime’s ends. How close are we to Martial law & being hunted down as “terrorists”? I’ll still show up & risk the wall. For anyone planning to attend a protest 👇

Social murder seems to be the goal for this regime & future techno-fascist societies. Non-wealthy people who are infirm or poor cannot serve them, and therefore must die. A literal sloughing off. (It appears the term was coined to apply to working conditions but has been expanded.)
