Just because something doesn’t affect you personally, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t care about it. We, as humans should desire to see others free from suffering

I absolutely agree with this! It’s so sad that millions don’t.

A heartfelt "fuck you" to everyone who told me I was overreacting in November 2016.

This‼️

A bed covered and surrounded by every dwemer item you can imagine from Morrowind

guys really live like this and don't see any issue

I wish every day didn't remind me of some book I read in grad school.

Me: I just need two days of nothing

Life: Still everything

Me: I see

your anger is warranted because all of this was avoidable.

To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

—With love,
Your American allies.

Finance Guy Doing Cocaine In Sad Way This Time

Cory Booker cooking "Now is the time to get angry, but let that anger fuel you. Now is your time to get scared for what's happening to your neighbors and let that fear bring about your courage. Now is your time to stare at despair and say you will not have the last word cause I'm going to stand up!"

Senator Cory Booker:

"I believe that history will show we rose to meet this moment.

It will show we did not let the chaos and division go unanswered.

It will show that when our president chose to spread lies and sow fear, we chose to come together, to work together, and to rise together."

Màthair Meg Bateman Bha sinn a’coimhead nan rionnag mus do thionndaidh sinn a-steach leis na coin, is thuirt thu gum bu mhithich dhut na h-ainmean aca ionnsachadh gu ceart. Ach chan fhada gus am bi thu fhèin nam measg ’s is mise a bhios a’feuchainn ri d’ainmeachadh, thusa aig nach fhaca mi do nàdar ach mar phriobadh fann an cuid solais – Is tu riamh an ceann do dhleastanais, mu chòcaireachd, caoraich, leabhraichean; a bheil fios an d’fhuair thu do dhìol airson do dheataim is spàirn is sgìths? O gun lasainn de dh’aighear annad na leigeadh leam d’fhaicinn gu slàn, no chan fhaide thu bhuam nuair a shiùbhlas tu nab ha thu rim thaobh a-nochd.

Mother English translation by Meg Bateman We looked at the stars for a while Before we turned in with the dogs, And you said it was high time You learnt their names properly. But soon you will be among them yourself And I will be the one trying to name you; You whose nature I have seen Only as their faint points of light – As you labour behind duty, Behind house-work, farm-work, books, And who knows if you have your reward For your care and effort and exhaustion. I wish I could kindle a joy in you That would let me see you whole Or you won’t be further when you go Than you were tonight at my side.

Is tu riamh an ceann do dhleastanais,
mu chòcaireachd, caoraich, leabhraichean;
a bheil fios an d’fhuair thu do dhìol
airson do dheataim is spàirn is sgìths?

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

Something to think about

X post by Owl at the Library (@Sket ...), featuring a profile picture of an owl with a book and a "thinking face" and "magic wand" emoji, posted 11 hours ago. The post reads, "Madeleine L’Engle: this is why they want you illiterate." Below this, there is a quoted text in a white box that says, "The first people a dictator puts in jail are the writers, the teachers, the librarians—because these people are dangerous. They have enough vocabulary to recognize injustice and to speak out loudly about it. Let us have the courage to go on being dangerous people."

Watch who and what they are attacking first.

I'm Not Running in 2026, But I Am Getting to Work We all have work to do in delivering a better kind of politics for America.

I care deeply about who Michigan will elect as Governor and send to the U.S. Senate next year, but I have decided against competing in either race.

I wrote more here about my decision and how I view the work required of us all in this moment:

"I hope you feel better!" Said the Instacart guy as he dropped off my order of orange juice, chicken noodle soup, and Kleenex.

one of the things i truly believe is that a significant portion of this country is in the grip of a death cult

If you are a grown adult who struggles with making yourself eat enough vegetables, I recently found a woman's account who packs a separate Tupperware of greens when she packs lunch and then before she eats her meal she has "dinosaur time" when she just munches as many leaves as quickly as possible..
