"Nobody actually knows the future," said @margaretatwood.bsky.social as she accepted the Eleanor Roosevelt Lifetime Achievement Award at the Eleanor Roosevelt Banned Book Awards, co-presented by PEN America, but noted: "When you're halfway down the slippery slope, it's not far to the bottom."

They already do...

Also cannot believe im this old seeing this for the 1st time.

We are the generators of the unseen, and will not be silenced. 🔥🌍

What was the question?

That is good!

Spectacular view of 100,000 people attending the #HandsOff march in NYC

So many signs at protests around the US saying they are sorry Canada and ❤️ Canada. We are standing up!

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

I thought she would had been an amazing vp pick, so sharp!

Beautiful

Maybe just show images of children all over the world to this song

They want to eradicate us.

I would love to see something in print where it would be distributed or accessible to all. We are worth it. The future is worth it

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.

This Friday, where will you be?

Well definitely don't wear suits.

A message from Teresa. ❤️

If you are a media member who would like to cover this story, there are three surrogates who were at the town hall who are available to speak with you.

Please DM to get connected. #idpol

If someone wanted to destroy the United States from within, would they do anything differently than what Trump is doing right now?

Ugh I have the same thought Lizzo, they'll be up in their space ships with all the top 2%

I don’t know who needs to hear this today, but going to the gym to train is not resistance. Karate is not resistance.

Organize in your community. Take care of people. Do the hard work of making sure people have what they need to survive. Do it through organizations that are already there.

Connect with the earth, that pull. It's the only thing that seems to help. Come along with me into the woods, let the trees and earth take my fears to be alchemied into hope and love. I can choose to change my fear, I can.
Maybe we are the children of the forest. 🌳🌲

So into the squishy thawing mud, into the woods I go again today. I have so much laundry to do, the house is piled with things to be put away, somewhere. Watching, not watching - working, not working...it's still there the fear.

And now, get through the first year now, the first week. And I stayed with the plane in the Potomac until 4am. Working near my daughters school and heard sirens, this is it, the school shooting. Later, a different siren- the limerick Power Plant? Not a scheduled test - is this happening?

I often wonder about manifesting things into reality. How the first Trump cycle was coming to an end, and I hoped that we would just make it through before something... happened, something big. COVID, and I said well, that tracks.

Did you ever get the feeling that there's something come undone
An unreeling in the seaming, the stitching gone
So you rip a little harder 'til that rip becomes a run
Feel the fabric of existence come unspun
[Song by Franz Ferdinand]

I think we all need to attend Easter sunday services, just flock there in groups. I'm very curious what their messages will be and how they are received.

This is my poetry from game night regarding election!
