Gentle correction here: the pandemic is not over. Covid is still circulating constantly and waves are up and down each season (not just in the winter). For yourself and others, please get boosted every year (the formula gets updated for the new mutations).

Check your voter registration status early! Know your polling place! Check if early voting options are offered. And if your state requires party affiliation in order to vote in the primary. Locally, we had several MAGAs running as Independent in '24, so be aware when you are researching candidates!

I see what you did there!

I was just saying how my heart hurts for Walz. Imagine getting that call. Imagine having to give press confs knowing that none of this would be happening if he & Harris had been elected. I mourn for us all.

This. Coupled with people not believing the job market is as bad as I say it is, that I must not be trying very hard 😮‍💨

tern @1goodtern There are two main ways to make people feel safe: 1) lie to them that there is no danger 2) take action to reduce the danger Why, in the name of all that is rational, did society choose option 1. 1:05 AM · Nov 5, 2025 · 18K Views

Society only chose option 1 because they were lied to.

“It’s just a cold”
“Kids are fine”
“Herd immunity”
"Only the vulnerable are at risk"

Repeat it enough times and people believe there’s no danger.

Denial is easy. Prevention takes effort.

America denies most people who apply for disability. Also, the majority of us are not considered disabled because we are functional enough (to care for ourselves, to work) when properly medicated.

👏👏

If you're reading this, whoever you are & whatever you're doing to try to make this world better, whether it's calling, protesting, providing mutual aid, making art, raising awareness, training & teaching people new concepts & skills, journalism, surviving through it all, or whatever else: thank you

Meanwhile, a not-insignificant number of Americans are hoping either to be offered asylum or that Canada will invade and liberate us...

Yes to robots/AI to do the work, but WHO are they planning to sell their products and services to in order to continue making (more and more!) money? This is the part I don't understand. It's so short sighted. No customers when we're all dead or destitute 😮‍💨

You might be right! Malicious compliance and gumming up the works!

@jewelwingaudio.bsky.social Same ☹️ and I have felt immense guilt about it for months that I can't protest, can't get involved locally, can't donate (I was laid off last year)...all I can do is bear witness and boost stories on social media in hopes to motivate others.

Happy Pictures of Obama Day to all who celebrate!

Maybe when their personal safety is at risk, some can wake up and stop going along 🤔

I have this on a mix CD that gets played in my car a lot. So glad to see someone else still remembers it!

Bye!! Do they need help packing sandwiches? 😂

@ailxsays.bsky.social not sure why you're being so hostile to me. I'm against forced birth, forced suffering. My point was relevant to the comment I replied to. Both things can also be true. Direct your anger at the other side, please.

Which there will be more of if people are forced to give birth to babies that will have profound - incompatible with life health issues and need extensive (and expensive!) care before they pass. More suffering for all!

Many days, it's the only ✨hope ✨ I have left!

I'm sorry that happened to you. I'm glad you're still here! ❤️‍🩹

Dem! Here's her website

Lol lo-fi makes me sad too. I dated someone who felt it was calming and contributed to concentration. I'm missing that gene, I guess 😅

My first thought is that they want to see who is critical of the current administration, and whatever they decide what to do with that info...

Not suspish at all! 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Have a great time, Gus!

@chrisbrown-nc YUP! Thank you! This was the absurdity that flabbergasted me in the earlier days of Covid- sick anti-vax folks showing up to hospitals and expecting to be treated with anything they had, including experimental treatments 🤦‍♀️ make it make sense!

People have to make individual decisions based on availability at stores in their location and prices 🤷‍♀️ when you have no options that are more ethical, you just have to buy what you need because you need it.

Cosign everything but "crown" 👑 as we are currently in our "no kings" reminder era. But I get what you're saying
