Itβs important to understand that the demonization of βAntifaβ isnβt just about kneecapping the enemies of MAGA. Itβs about creating an opportunity to bring down the law-enforcement apparatus on anyone who dares dissent.

I want to encourage those of you who procrastinate like I do about using my FSA/HSA funds and then end up leaving money on the table to consider the FSA Store as a way to spend down funds & order Plan B etc... to donate to community groups, etc.

Now that poll data shows that Americans have overwhelmingly become pro-immigrant in the last few months -- to the tune of a 25 year high, with most shift from GOP voters -- anyone want to apologize for saying that Mexicans waving Mexican flags at protests was going to go over badly with Americans?

I know it maybe sounds unkind, but we are very much at a point where people need to move past the acute grief stage for the future we thought we might have and into the stage of planning for the future we actually will have

The 5 days since Zohran Mamdani won the primary have been @runforsomething.net's biggest candidate recruitment surge ever. We're about to cross 5,000 young people who've raised their hands & signed up at runforwhat.net to run for local office for the first time.
Change is coming.

Don't listen to the people bleating on social media that "no one is doing anything." What they are actually saying is that THEY aren't doing anything. The reality is that folks are working in every corner of the world, doing so much to keep themselves and others alive, while building the future.

"it's not peaceful for people to be on the highway" -LA Mayor Karen Bass right now.
This is what I mean when I say the word "peaceful" as applied to protesters is about prescribing placidity, not nonviolence.
Calmly marching on a freeway is pretty inarguably nonviolent. " Peaceful" you can debate

Real talk. If I'm the Int'l committee for the 2028 LA Olympics or 2026 World Cup, I have 0 desire to subject my athletes to ICE fascism in the USA. Why would any athlete risk their life, safety, & years of hard work to get targeted by ICE for having the wrong complexion or tweeting the wrong tweet?

Regular liberal people must come to understand that there is no way you can appease Nazis and especially that there is no way that you can shrink yourself so they won't hurt you. Their main goal is to hurt you.

Jonathan Joss was MURDERED.
Words matter here.
He was MURDERED.
it was a HATE CRIME because he is a gay Indigenous man.
Say those words. Do not dance around it. He wasn't "killed in a shooting." He was murdered in a hate crime.
