Iโ€™ve stopped asking people โ€œhow are you?โ€ when I run into them because like if you wanna tell me then that should be up to you and if you donโ€™t then we can get straight to the important stuff like exchanging pet pictures

Just a heads up. Itโ€™s going to get worse. Stop relying on the corporate media who failed to warn you, only to reap the profits from the shitshow now. They wanted this for you. Get your news here. With swearing. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

The Internment Camps Are Coming A new offer from the Texas General Land Office has been made to incoming President Donald Trump, and it proves we are on the verge of reliving some of our darkest days in America.

Make no mistake, these "camps" that have just been offered up in Texas are internment camps, and we have seen this all before. Don't dismiss what is happening as hyperbole and don't look away. shero.substack.com/p/the-intern...

A poem by Langston Hughes titled "Tired". It reads as the following: 

"I am so tired of waiting, 
Aren't you, 
For the world to become good 
And beautiful and kind? 
Let us take a knife 
And cut the world in two -- 
And see what worms are eating 
At the rind."

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.

Once you realize that Trump isnโ€™t nominating cabinet members to RUN agencies but DESTROY them, it makes more sense.

They are counting on you to feel helpless, exhausted, scared, alone, too old or young. We have people worldwide who even at 90 years old went out and resisted. In Ukraine the grandmothers grabbed rifles, the children flew drones. You can hold a sign, organize, we know itโ€™s scary but donโ€™t give up.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Donโ€™t think it wonโ€™t happen again when they come for the โ€œundocumented.โ€

As Iโ€™m figuring this place out, a high percentage of my follows/followers are in Scotland. Iโ€™m not mad about that. Welcome Scotland, I love you. Left my heart there May 2024.
