You’re the critical tool in my Covid toolbox and truly have been a game changer for being consistently informed. So thank you!
Also I dunno why there’s a painting emoji!
I’m late to this convo, just took a little social media break but wanted to say it is all of those, and also you do a good job modeling how to analyze on our own. Sometimes I’ll try and compare what I see going on with what you’ve posted, and it’s getting easier.
Please highlight this story.
ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

THIS MADE LAUGH SO HARD!!! HAHAHAHA!
I wrote about this a bit in my last book but it really shakes me that a defining feature of this catastrophic era is that we just keep going to work. We work through pandemics, we work through natural disasters, we work through economic calamity, we work through coups, we work, we work, we work.

Yes, same. People are hungry for concrete ideas and directions.
building; go get on your school board, your PTA, your local organizing communities, etc.
Yesterday, there were a few soft ...encouragements, is what I'd call them. AOC had people introduce themselves to someone next to them as a symbolic "hey! get to know your communities and make sure everyone around you is ok", and then they both acknowledged the hunger for grassroots community...
It's so GOOD!!!
(Gaga, but also, probably your soup!)
OH! And now we're threatening explicit murder. WHAT IS HAPPENING
Also, can we just note the petty but also murderous and threatening messaging of "You can choose" when referring to "Hello and Goodbye". Like?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh, me too. The internet is still a powerful tool of connection and humanity.
This is cool!
The Department of Ed has a form to snitch on DEI policies in schools.
I’d be a shame if we broke it with thousands of responses… enddei.ed.gov

Quite the message from the guy running our government
The fact that the USA has banned visas for trans people but welcomed rapist Andrew Tate shows how all this "defending women" stuff is total bullshit

The military choir sang Do You Hear the People Sing from Les Mis at the governor's dinner at the white house. Thanks to @beebrookshire.bsky.social for helping me fact check tihs one. As far as I can it's only "officially" been posted on Dan Scavino's FB
One payment! Gah!! I had a physical reaction to this! So frustrating!!
If there is delight to be found in this situation, it's in the sheer amount of trolling we're all doing.
(I’m sure someone already posted this but I made myself laugh writing it)

So, the National Endowment for the Arts announced today that they are reworking the guidelines for all 2026 grants and will be prioritizing projects that center the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. It's now just a propaganda fund.

In a TV panel on Tuesday, and I joked that Canada's promised "24/7 eyes on the border" should be some hockey sticks with googly eyes jammed in a snowbank.
Aaron and his mom KJ, in Winnipeg, liked the idea, so they made us some truly amazing border sentries. I hope Mr. Trump feels more secure now.
