Having a hard time looking for the silver linings today😔

YouTube video by PoliticsGirl 20 Lessons on Tyranny: by Timothy Snyder / read by John Lithgow

You have to see this.

PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

I’m so happy for you! Thanks for hanging on!

So I saw a creator talk about adding up her Target purchases in 2024 and comparing to 2025. She had a 90% reduction in spending as she was boycotting. I did the same and mine is also down 90%! Withholding money works as protest! #boycott #democracy

The thing I’m
Most proud of in regard to my children is that they are kind!

I’m only buying from small businesses and local today. I hope they see a boost!

Yes! And my kids and husband too!

When you finally come out of the dark, everything seems better. Good for you!

I first looked at what I buy that are my essentials. Found local places that sell them. If that didn’t work I bought direct from the company. It is a little harder initially, but the satisfaction of not shopping those places feels so good

So I’m 58, an empty nester, and have a small jewelry business. My son has his masters in CS. He showed me how to use AI to help my business, and OMG, my life is golden! I’m glad I listened and learned!

FU Joe Rogan! Suck on this!

My daughter is in law school and has built her life around public interest. She called today after meeting with a nonprofit she worked for that is essential, saying that they think they may not exist in the near future. She’s wrecked. What do I even say to her!!!

I would also love an idea of what to say when I call my representatives. I would like to do it every day as a routine!

So my friends and I are trying to get a letter campaign for the special elections going. Where would we look to start?

Louden County VA, Federal workers at a town hall. I mean one of Elmo’s flunkies and family is LIVING in the building where these people work! And it’s a restricted area to them! Insane!

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

We updated TrumpGolfTrack.com to include the price of eggs and gas per your request. And a nice little home screen icon. More to come 🤣

Only in Hawaii can you grow coffee! Morons!

My 26 yo son said exactly this. He’s pretty smart. Masters computer science. I didn’t really give it a lot of thought until he mentioned it and also said the only place in the us that coffee will grow is Hawaii!

Done!

I still have an Amazon account but I feel good I have used it very little these past months. I weaned off of Diet Coke, I can wean off of Amazon too!

I am! But brand new to it so for and old person there’s a learning curve!

So happy you’re here!

@melrobbins.bsky.social hi Mel, big fan! Keep doing great work! Wondered if you might think of putting your new book in the libraries? I’m trying to use Libby and it’s not there. Any use of a library keeps them free to everyone!

A key asymmetry of this era of American politics and how it’s covered is that Trump is expected to do bad and corrupt things, so when he does it barely qualifies as news. But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.

Yes!!

He’s garbage

I’m happy to advise that I’ve updated and expanded my Starter Pack to include even more of my favorite accounts on Bluesky. I hope you find it useful, especially if you’re a newbie here! 🦋

Please share widely — thanks!
