A poem by Martin NiemΓΆller that reads:
First they came for the socialists,
And I did not speak out 
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me
And there was no one left to speak for me.

Now is not the time for apathy...

The Statue of Liberty says to a child, "you deserved so much better". The child says back, "I think you did too".

We need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity.

We need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity.

Today we honor the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Let this be a day in remembrance of him and the selflessness he exhibited for all of humanity.

Let us also remember the great human that was President Jimmy Carter, as we continue to fly our flags at half mast to honor his memory.

Remember when Snoop was like, "I'm quitting smoke", and had every one of us questioning if he'd been abducted? Then he came out with the smokeless fire pits.

What if, hear me out, this is Snoop playing some kind of long game? Because shirley he would never...

to recap:
β€” Trump was *for* the TikTok ban
β€” which the GOP Congress passed
β€” and the GOP Supreme Court upheld
β€” and even though Biden said he wouldn't enforce the ban, TikTok shut down anyway
β€” so that Trump could "save" it
β€” and the media fell for it
we really do live in the dumbest fucking country

This is heartening to see! The resistance is beginning.

I know we are tired. I know we are fearful. But we will make ourselves heard and reclaim this country from the grip of MAGA fascism.

I’ve seen the inside of barbed wire prison camps in America. We came back from that and shall overcome this.

America would be a much better place if SOME people would stop freaking out over WHO we love, WHICH bathroom we use, and WHAT we do with our bodies.

It is nobody's fucking business but OURS.

For me, the thing that knocked the wind out of me with this election is that I dared to believe America would get it right THIS time, that America was ready for a Woman President.

It hurt having that blind faith in neighbors, friends, and strangers smacked out of me.

Dammit, America. 😞
