"Economic Blackout on February 28, 2025 Take Part & Share the News If you haven't heard there will be an economic blackout Feb 28th, nationwide. This means don't buy anything unless it's from a small business: No gas, no fast food, and definitely nothing from places like Target, Walmart, or Amazon. Get the word out! We want THEM to see that WE have the power. We will start with 1 day, then 3, then specific companies until our message is heart. Please spread the word! Thank you!"

Hey, I'm going to do this, and I hope you will too. Not because I think a one day pause will be a devastating blow, but because coordinated action takes practice, and if you don't do the small stuff, you will have a harder time gearing up for the big stuff.

Life (healthcare system) liberty (justice system) and the pursuit of happiness (education system) should not be for profit 😤!

My 7yo daughter drew this picture of Sonic the Hedgehog and now I have to get it tattooed on my ankle/foot. (Think classic tweety bird placement)
This is especially funny because I’m a massive nerd that was obsessed with Sega and was exactly her age when it came out, and also I’m a runner.

Just saw a farmer say, "you don't have to admit you were wrong, you have to admit you were lied to, " and idk that seems like a good framing to call people in

This is a reminder that boycotts don’t have to be perfect, simply cancelling automatic subscriptions and only using it for rare emergencies rather than multiple times a week for convenience *will* still make an impact.
Some can quit things cold turkey, and it’s okay if that’s not you.

This is the first thing I saw when I opened the app, and I feel strengthened to start my week. Thank you 💜

Theatre kids………..the time is now, the day is here

Wait why is Maria Cantwell not showing up? I’m off to google, but that’s some *bullshit*.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

Every time I’ve tried it’s just a busy signal, which seems like a good sign…

Aw shucks 😊🥰

Monogram Mugs lined up to spell out “fuck Trump” but the u’s are v’s because apparently no u’s were available but they did have v’s

You just can’t take me anywhere

godDAMNIT I came here to say this lmao

Trump Lost. Vote Suppression Won. Here are the numbers...

“Be like them”? What, suspicious of a win? The left actually has reason to be suspicious, my guy. Look at the numbers.

Why is no one talking about voter suppression that Greg Palast clearly and concisely reported on?
Less than half the country is tragically stupid. Still tragic, but not the actual majority.

Donald Trump’s Executive Orders Aim to Create Jim Crow for Trans People The Trump administration has dismissed public pleas for mercy for transgender youth and instead launched a full-scale attack against trans people.

Slate [Feb 2] -- Purpose of Trump multiple Executive Orders is to "create Jim Crow for trans people" by "fully disenfranchising them from society on a scale not seen since Jim Crow" (e.g., the legal racial caste system mostly in South from Civil War to 1960s).

If you cannot call it what it is when all in a week: a government removes every mention of a group of people, destroys information about them en masse, bans their discussion in schools, restricts their ability to travel and starts seizing and refusing their official identification, when will you?

Trans people and our rights are not a “distraction.” We are real people who live and die and deserve care and dignity and access to public spaces.

I used to be quite ignorant as a young adult. But do you know what changed my mind each time? Art.

Art is the best thing to get into the hearts of others and help them see something new. Just make something completely sincerely. Everything else falls into place. There is a reason for what we do.

Hi. Jewish person here. These are concentration camps and should be called that by everyone.

Protect your neighbors. Help your community.

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 📉

The cruelty is the point.
They want you to panic.
They want you to give up.
They want you dead.
Don’t let them win.
You have to live.
Better days can only come if you’re still here.

Father: it was an older time, it was a simpler time. Things were rough but folks felt like maybe good times were right around the corner…

Son: what was that time called, Papa?

Father: some will call it the last truly civilized time, but we knew it simply as “brat summer”
