You may not feel "worthy" of the self-care trauma & addiction recovery requires of you-- but it's important you know that doesn't actually MEAN you're unworthy.

It means you were heavily CONDITIONED to FEEL & BELIEVE you were unworthy-- no more, no less.

My pitch to South Carolinians who usually vote for Republicans. 🇺🇸

U.S. to ban Chinese purchases of farmland, citing national security Top officials said the Trump administration will use executive action and work with state officials to ban sales of farmland nationwide to buyers tied to China and other foreign adversaries.

Banning the Chinese Communist Party and its proxies from buying up Michigan’s farmland — especially land around U.S. military bases — is a no-brainer. It’s been a priority of mine and I’m encouraged by this step to protect our national security. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Senator Lindsey Graham:

I expect in the coming days you will see weapons flowing at a record level to help Ukraine defend themselves...
I expect in the coming days more support from Europe regarding their efforts to help Ukraine. Putin made a miscalculation here.

Watch this to the end.

Is your family member or client at Alligator Alcatraz? We obtained a list The Trump and DeSantis administrations have refused to release a roster of detainees, none of whom seem to appear in ICE’s online database.

"The Miami Herald/Tampa Bay Times has obtained a list of more than 700 people who have been detained or appear to be scheduled to be sent to the Florida-run immigration detention facility known as Alligator Alcatraz."

Okay.
Austin area folks. The main speaker on voter suppression history is not available for next Thursday's teach-in.

I am looking for someone with expertise on historical voter suppression in Texas specifically.

If you are or know an awesome history teacher available Thursday night, please DM me.

Amazing

New Caledonia to become a 'state', but will remain French French President Emmanuel Macron hailed the agreement as 'historic'. But it stops short of full independence sought by Indigenous Kanaks.

Portland family detained at border facility for 2 weeks in apparent violation of immigration policy Kenia Jackeline Merlos, her 9-year-old triplets and 7-year-old son have been detained since late June.

Trump’s immigration machine is abducting Oregonians without cause—including four U.S. citizen children in my district—and detaining them in a windowless cell with NO access to counsel.

This is not law enforcement. It’s authoritarianism.

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “I don’t want to hear another Republican in Congress ever again pretend to care about deficits and debt… explain why 🇺🇸 families have to pay $3000 to ride an ambulance when we’re handing out million-dollar tax breaks to the wealthiest.”

Amen. #MedicareForAll

Rep. Frost heard someone shout: "I'm an American citizen!"
As he left they all shouted: "Libertad, libertad..."
That means 'freedom'. Sounds like a movie about slavery
MAGA undoubtedly means the same as it meant when the KKK used it as their slogan. The tRump administration is one of racist bigotry.

City in Oregon drops fluoride from public drinking water after hearing concerns One resident asked if the city's voters approved fluoridation originally shouldn’t they be asked again. Instead, the city council voted 5-2 to end the fluoridation program.

The right wing faction on the Sweet Home, OR city council just decided, with very little public notice or consultation, to remove fluoride from the city’s water. www.oregonlive.com/health/2025/...

U.S. Representative
@wassermanschultz.house.gov (D-FL) was given a sanitized “tour” of the Everglades MAGA torture camp and what she saw was enough to turn her stomach.

“They get their drinking water and brush their teeth where they poop.”

FL Dems are fighting to shut it down.

YOU'RE NOT "TRAUMADUMPING" ON YOUR FRIENDS THEY'RE YOUR FRIENDS AND THEY CARE IF THEY DIDN'T WANT TO LISTEN THEY WOULDN'T BE THERE

Accepting responsibility for the role we realistically play in the maintenance of our problems does NOT mean buying into the gaslighting & victim blaming of abusers, bullies, & enablers, who will find a way to make everything our fault & everything our responsibility.

I wore this exact shirt walking my dog this morning and everyone saw me.

Rosie O’Donnell is one of the most caring & generous people I’ve ever known. Her, ‘For All Kids Foundation’ has awarded over $22 million in Early Childhood Care and Education grants to 1,400 child-related organizations
And thats a fraction of her work for others.
Trump has given nothing to others

You wouldn't let just anyone in your house. Don't let just anyone in your head. Be ruthlessly mindful about what you read, what social media accounts you follow, what you watch, what you listen to.

EVERYTHING we consume either feeds our symptomatology or feeds our recovery.

I can’t tell you how many people in blue states think they are safe from this. Please hear me: This isn’t just Texas. 85% of all fire departments are volunteer, and FEMA funds their training. No FEMA funding, no firefighters for any of us.

🚨 Missouri Attorney General announced yesterday he sued two proxy advisory firms for advising investors to vote against anti-DEI proposals.

AG Andrew Bailey's announcement comes days after news that investors in 30 corporations worth $13 trillion voted overwhelmingly to defeat anti-DEI proposals.

if Newsom can actually get mid-decade redistricting done by a commission of partisan hacks I will be forced to respect that psychopath and I'm rooting for him to get it done

credit where credit's due, this is a good move on @raskin.house.gov's part

BREAKING

LOS ANGELES (AP) - A federal judge on Friday ordered the Trump administration to halt indiscriminate immigration stops and arrests in seven California counties, including Los Angeles.

It is a crisis.

This is such a critical point that can be tough to make without seeming to minimize the current disaster. This event had a very high death toll for a U.S. disaster and the impacts are severe but in terms of total number of people directly affected and the geographic scope, it’s on the smaller size.

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 118 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo or video of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

Mob boss Donald Trump resorts to the crime of extortion in hopes of keeping some of his other crimes hidden from the public. This is evidence known as #ConsciousnessOfGuilt in criminal cases.
