Seeing all the love that Puerto Rico is getting makes me so happy. πŸ’œ
Btw, Puerto Rico is still a colony of the US (and has been since 1898). Free Puerto Rico! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡·

Fuck ICE today, fuck ICE tomorrow, fuck ICE forever.
I say that not only as an American, but as a veteran. #fuckice #abolishice

Five buttons, all purple. One has the three arrows antifascist symbol. The others read "the only good fascist is a dead one", "only fascists hate antifa", "Billionaire lives don't matter", and "grumpy and queer".

I've got a bunch of designs available on my fourth wall shop. I'm pretty proud of these. There are shirts, buttons, hats, and mugs on there, all as fairly priced as I could make them. Link in bio.

They're so ANGRY that we take care of each other, and not just angry.

So CONFUSED by it.

And that is why we will win

Remember, in times like these, it's important to make time for joy. Take some time for yourself, take a breath, and get yourself centered. It's a marathon, not a sprint.

Many of the new ✨Skylighters✨ here follow me and I know that we are all collectively horrified with the news from Minneapolis.

We don’t have β€œcommunity conversations” yet in Skylight (coming soon).

For that reason, I’m starting this thread ⬇️

Feel free to use this post to connect/organize/share

Dear small child,
Why are you screaming bloody murder in public, when there's nothing actively happening? Cut that shit out, I'm stressed out enough as it is.
Sincerely,
Jeremy

Dear @democrats.org, the bare minimum you should be doing is working to abolish ICE as a governmental organization and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law. Don't give them more money for training, we don't want better trained Gestapo! We want them out of our cities and jailed.

Martin Luther King, Jr. in 1961: β€œCall it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all God’s children.”

Martin Luther King, Jr. in 1967: β€œThe evils of capitalism are as real as the evils of militarism and evils of racism.”

Thematically speaking, the most important thing Terry Pratchett taught me was the concept of militant decency. The idea that you can look at the world and its flaws and its injustices and its cruelties and get deeply, intensely angry, and that you can turn that into energy for doing the right thing and making the world a better place. He taught me that the anger itself is not the part! should be fighting. Nobody in my life ever said that before.

This is a good lesson, no matter how you come to learn it

That's a bummer, I really liked it. Hopefully you guys get big enough that it can be a thing again.

Out of curiosity, what happened to the in app video editor that Skylight used to have? I would love to see something like that again so I don't have to rely on the tiktok one.

I really like Paul Giamatti as Nus Braka. He's amazing, and I can't wait to see what kind of shenanigans he gets up to. I can't wait to see what else this series has in store.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy premiered yesterday, and I really like it. Captain Ake gives off hippie mom vibes in the best way, Caleb Mir is a little shit (but in a way that makes you like him), and Sam is adorable. It embraces everything Trek, both old and new.
