Trump blathers self-contradictory information so consistently that nobody points it out.

According to Trump's logic Musk knew about the bill, approved everything about the bill, until he learned what was in the bill.

And nobody ever calls Trump out on his stupidity that spills out of his mouth.

I'll be bringing Puppetools to the Fuchsia Freedom Garden tomorrow under my UnHinged! brand.

I've been working with Puppetools founder and play scientist Jeff Peyton since 2017.

I walked to school starting first grade in Brooklyn with my brothers who are two and three years older than me. Probably a quarter mile. Sad and infuriating.

I have no doubt that the election of Donald Trump was a backlash reaction to the success of the mass protests a few years ago.

Protests resulted in the murder conviction of Derek Chauvin and the removal of racist monuments in Richmond Virginia and many other places.

One step forward...

Even if they did Trump would just pardon them.

That was the first book I never finished! 🤣

End birthright citizenship.

Pay white people $5,000 to have babies.

Nothing to see here.

Wow!

This is at Richmond Hill. Beautiful grounds.

Interesting. This was before the interim policy created last year?

I was at Richmond Hill (Richmond, Virginia) all day yesterday for an inspiring event. Last thing I did was walk The labyrinth.

Thought it was an appropriate metaphor for what we're trying to do. When we seem closer we're further away and when we seem further away we're closer.

Walked a labyrinth today at Richmond Hill in Richmond, Virginia after a long day of meeting with social justice pollinators.

The #labyrinth design was the perfect metaphor for feeling like you're getting ever closer, then ever farther from your goal.

Eventually I found my way to the center.

To all my lgbtq+ friends, sorry about the selection of the new pope.

But to be fair Francis was not nearly as liberal as the press made him out to be.

"You knew I was a snake when you picked me up"

As more and more Republicans crossover to the Democratic party we're just going to get a more conservative Democratic Party.

Where's the progressive party?

This article is a must-read to understand what is happening on college campuses and how we got here.

Virginia has an ordinance against college campuses creating "Free Speech zones"

VCU's restrictions are extreme

Commonwealth Times article with headline "VCU student arrested in gathering echoing 2024 Gaza encampment" featuring a photo of his sign reading "gonna gas us again you fucking monsters"

Had coffee today with Oscar Ferguson-Osborne. He was released after 4 hours in jail, charged with trespassing for holding a sign outside of VCU's "free speech" zone.

"Free speech zones" are a ridiculous concept on college campuses

Not $5 million. 5 million people nationally. CBS reported "hundreds of thousands"

Locally they reported "hundreds" rather than the thousands that turned out

Protest sign outside CBS affiliate in Richmond Virginia reading "5 million April 5th cover it!"

Me solo protesting outside our local news station the morning of April 19th prior to our noon protest at the Capitol in Richmond Virginia. CBS reported hundreds of thousands April 5th when they were actually millions.

Security guard was waiting for me when I got there at 9:00 a.m.!

The Park Plaza Amphitheater is identified on their website as the Free Speech zone but it's a hell of a thing to find on a map. I was hoping that cop would stop me because of my sign and I could actually get some information about it but they were none to be seen

Protest sign in front of vcu's Campus which reads "are you goinna tear gas us again?" in quotes

I have a thing for solo protesting!
