NO KINGS
Top 10 Rally Reminders
Lead with Love, Not Anger.
Focus your energy on what you stand for, not what you stand against. Anger fades;
compassion lasts.
Look Out for One Another.
Offer water, a smile, or friendly chat to someone nearby. Check on families, elders, and people with mobility needs.
Smile and Greet Others.
Say hello, wave, or share a word of encouragement. Small acts of friendliness build community trust and lower tension.
Celebrate Families and Kids.
Keep the atmosphere family-friendly, and invite children to join in with chants and songs-joyful ways to express civic pride.
Lift Your Voice with Positivity.
Joy is contagious. The more you smile, sing, and stay grounded, the safer and stronger everyone around you feels.
Keep It Clean and Respectful.
Leave our rally space as beautiful as you found it-or better. Treat it with respect, care, and gratitude for peace.
Make Your Sign Speak Peace.
Choose messages that uplift-creative, clever, values-based signs draw attention without aggression or profanity.
Be Mindful of Words & Tone.
Speak with kindness, even when disagreeing. Avoid insults, sarcasm, or chants that demean others.
Model Nonviolence in Every Action.
If confronted, breathe, stay calm, and step back. Do not engage or argue, alert a Guardian in an orange vest.
Carry Joy Beyond the Rally.
After the event, share stories, photos, and reflections that highlight unity and courage-show the world what peaceful power looks like.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has โ€œplenary authority,โ€ then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasnโ€™t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the โ€œplenary authorityโ€ comment edited out.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Radicalized right wing terrorism is the greatest threat to this nation.

This story has not gotten enough attention in the national media. This white boy was radicalized by Charlie Kirk and killed two girls for disparaging his name.

#MorningVibe

Last month, workers painted over the rainbow-colored crosswalk outside the LGBTQ Pulse nightclub in Orlando.

Disinformation thrives without data

No jobs numbers = the economy isn't struggling!

No food insecurity data = people are fed!

No education research = defunding and threatening schools doesn't hurt kids!

No public health studies = our policies aren't making people sick!

User homoquartz writes: as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. itโ€™s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. weโ€™re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, โ€œiโ€™m not here to hurt you. hereโ€™s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know weโ€™re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. iโ€™m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now."
Small talk isn't to get to know a person. It's just a greeting to affirm you're buddies in the universe. I am motivated by wanting the other person to know I am friendly, so I have gotten pretty decent at small tall when I used to hate it.

This Tumblr user summarizes something I've been feeling/doing lately. Against everything going on, it somehow feels helpful.

A lot of us believed Pete Hegseth hated women even before he was confirmed. We werenโ€™t wrong.

Quotes on women in the military:

โ€ข In a 2024 interview, Hegseth stated that "Women shouldn't be in combat at all. They're life-givers, not life-takers"
