As a U.S. citizen (which I feel ashamed to be these days) who lives less than 10 mins from the Canadian border and whose city economy is largely funded by our Canadian neighbors, I fully support this! (I only wish I could belong to that side of the border, instead of linked to the regime next-door.)

Ohโ€ฆholy shit! I just witnessed a group of four idiots, mid 30s, at a Starbucks slamming โ€œDEI hiring.โ€ Three of the four were loud and forceful throwing in words like โ€œwoke.โ€ The forth guy literally said โ€œI hear about that! But I never heard what DEI stands for.โ€

NONE OF THE OTHER THREE KNEW EITHER!

37 ways Project 2025 has shown up in Trumpโ€™s executive orders A side-by-side review by POLITICO found dozens of cases where the presidentโ€™s early executive actions have aligned with portions of the 922-page policy document.

Hereโ€™s some โ€œBreaking Newsโ€ that isnโ€™t breaking to anyone except poorly educated #MAGAts & other MAGA adjacent morons. Politico reports convicted felon Tัump and Musk are following the Project2025 playbook to the letter, as informed and intelligent Democrats warned.

Despite my high student loan debt, I'm thankful to be getting my masters at a private college. Its emphasis is on social justice & environmental justice, with all of our courses being taught through that lens, & no faculty censoring their views or words on all of the horrors occurring right now.

Thundersnow - Wikipedia

So, experiencing thundersnow today was pretty cool. It would be cooler, however, if it wasn't another symptom of severe Climate Change.

This provides a simple overview of some of the things DEI/DEIA actually represents. Please share with those who may not know much about DEIA, because knowledge is power; when we know better, we can choose to do better. โฃ๏ธ

Republicans in Congress introduce bill to remove gray wolf from federal protections Republicans in Congress including Rep. Tom Tiffany of Wisconsin on Friday introduced a bill to delist the gray wolf in Wisconsin and 43 other states.

And so it begins again - US Reps. Thom Tiffany and Lauren Boebert have reintroduced their bill to strip gray wolves of federal protections.

The bill, renamed the "Pet and Livestock Protection Act", relies on misinformation and fear in its attempt to delist wolves and prevent judicial review.

Those who donโ€™t study history are doomed to repeat it, and those who erase history are trying to repeat it

Open, confidential, & free. Highly recommend if you could use some support or a safe space to share/vent to a caring, empathetic community who *gets it*. I facilitated tonight & our group was big. If our world has you devastated, outraged, or filled with a sense of impending doom, you are not alone.
