Exactly. It’s always been wrong. Despite the glacial pace with which gender equality is changing, at least a modicum of progress has been made if we can get white men on the R side of the House to vote to release the files. Tho if they didn’t have wives & daughters they likely wouldn’t have.

It’s fake pardons for fake electors. There’s nothing he can do about state charges. This seems to be a non-story to me.

Why do you think we have all those beloved MGM black-and-white movies?

Studies show that engaging in cultural activities (including sports) is an antidote to depression and loneliness- connecting with others and sharing experiences is medicine folks.

Once on jury duty the judge cleared the courtroom so I could explain to him why I couldn’t be an objective jurist when the defendant (young black woman) had no witnesses to testify on her behalf and they had 3 cops on their side. My brother in law is a retired cop. I couldn’t trust their testimony.

I'm thinking about all those who are now unemployed through no fault of their own because this shit show that is our current administration RIF'd them via DOGE. They too are impacted by the loss of Obama Care AND the loss of SNAP benefits Many haven't found new work and rely on public assistance.

Let’s hope this continues to mount and is reflected in our votes! The ability to convert this data into election outcomes seems to be our only hope

We don’t have to wait for some grand Utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presence, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is it self a marvelous victory. A quote by Howard Zinn, historian

Every day we must continue to live as we think and believe human beings should live. To defy others efforts to bring us down and tear us apart is both a victory and an act of faith.

To your point however, those who can step outside of the box we're in and engage in systems thinking are desperately needed now to both prepare for more damage anticipated in the next three years AND plan for a better future. There is too much to lose if we fail to act. TY TY @andycraig.bsky.social

Each of us is engaged in one or more interdependent response mechanisms: Inform (tell us what's happening), protest (bear witness, slow damage), triage (reduce impacts to most vulnerable), build networks, (connective systems). We MUST ALSO prepare for more damage & plan for reconstruction. 2/

Peaceful #nokings protest in #sandiego . The crowd was so chill. Wish I was able to take more pictures, but it’s hard when you’re at the front of the march carrying a flag.
