Call your reps about this. Every time a book ban has been overturned or shut down, it's because the vast majority of people who believe in the freedom to read spoke up.

They have been. Legacy media just isn't reporting on it.

A lot of indie media isn't either.

Hell no, it's not over We still have rights. Time to use them.

We have plenty of precedent for the government trying to shut down dissent. But in the end, the goons and guns did not prevail.

November 25, 2025 Last week, a poll conducted for Global EV Alliance, made up of electric vehicle driver associations around the world, found that 52% of Americans would avoid buying a Tesla for political reasons.

Consumer buying power goes back to the 1890s when women took it upon themselves to use their buying power. Learn the history here and how it effected change. Let’s use our buying power this TG weekend and not shop at Amazon, Target, and Home Depot, but instead support local business. #WeAintBuyingIt

They never do, that's why.

There's no upside for men to stick up for their women colleagues & so we never expect it to happen. It's fucked up, but it's reality. Welcome to our world... ish... πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

I'm not going to do it by myself, but all 300+M of us together could do it. Build community. Ds, Independents & everyone who's not fash getting together could remake the country into one worth living in.

Or, you know, just keep talking shit & doing nothing, it's your choice πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

They will if we make it clear that we won't accept anything less.

All the male reporters who've stood by & refused to push back s/b ashamed. Full stop

But that's the thing - men are told from birth women are lesser, so they don't even think about it. TFG says what they think & that's why he gets away with it. It's been normalized since the dawn of time. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

It's sickening, what American men will stand & watch other men say & do to women. And they have the nerve to expect any woman to fuck them...

I rearrange my entire life to keep away from as many men as possible & will never stop

I'll believe it if I ever see it. Men talk a big game online, but don't say shit IRL.

And not one man said anything? Not one word?

Why am I not surprised... I keep hearing about those unicorns that are "good men" but I'm not sure I've ever seen one IRL. They must be partying with the Easter Bunny & the Tooth Fairy.

As ICE Street Raids Ramp Up, New Yorkers Stock Up On Whistles Taking a cue from Chicago, community groups have distributed thousands of whistles in recent weeks β€” a grassroots system people in other cities have adopted to help neighbors sound the alarm.

β€œShort bursts indicate an ICE sighting. Long whistles indicate agents making arrests. If you hear the whistle and you’re undocumented, said [Whitney Hu, a community activist and organizer with South Brooklyn Mutual Aid], β€˜you hide. And if you’re somebody who’s not, you go to the street.’”

Okay, Trek nerds...post a picture from your first #StarTrek movie! πŸ––πŸŽ¬

Early sections of my Farpoint shawl: the gray point that echoes the Starfleet delta, dark gray rows & science-blue with stars worked in.  Above the blue is a black band all ready for rank pips-it will have 3, for Lt. Commander Beverly Crusher. πŸ’™

My #Farpoint shawl is coming along! I've already leveled up since Sat & now I'm on the row with the pips, so it's time to learn bobbles!

I'll be wearing this at #STLV next summer in my photo with Gates McFadden 😻😻😻
Loving this pattern & the yarns!

Surfing Ravelry & daydreaming about what I could make with an exceptionally beautiful cake of yarn is more satisfying than casting on a new project.
