It is deeply shocking to me how members of my local board cower and look for the easy out and refuse to do the hard work to protect our community. Even when told by other local boards, "you could do more", they just throw their hands up and say that it doesn't matter because PA233. Fuck that. Fight!

I think we all need to get better at asking, "what's the rush?"

Sweet. I read Saving Time first, then How to do Nothing early this year and have been recommending them to friends ever since.

Oh, are you going to talk about Jenny Odell's books on the topic?

Another successful Friday Protest at Rep. Huizenga's office!

Can we just stop with the weird CGI babies?

Really disappointed in my local school districts. All bond initiatives failed, and by narrow margins. Low voter turnout, too. Our kids deserve better, and we will not stop fighting for that.

We have the power for change if we actually get up, speak out, and show up in our communities.

AI is becoming a plague, wrecking our communities and farm land. And our useless politicians are making it easier with things like PA233 here in Michigan. They want to built a toxic BESS right next to our schools and a datacenter across the street. Money corrupts, and the people suffer.

Busy busy busy. Help me do the hard work. Message your representatives. Attend township and school board meetings. Learn the issues that effect you, now, and do something about it. You have more power and will than you know.

Spent the afternoon outside. Time to get cozy with the kids.

Oh oh oh! Can I make an argument? Ummmmm. Your essays have been inspiring and I credit you for my growing passion in activism.

No one is unhappier than when you fail to do something exactly how a toddler wants it done.

And I am left scraping together opposition against the AI industry forcing a toxic BESS next to our schools to attract datacenters, or battling school districts for trans rights, or finding solutions to the rising unhoused crisis as our only shelter in town cuts the number of beds they offer.

Never mind every other single abominable or corrupt thing to this miserable moment, the extrajudicial and unevidenced execution of 34 human beings by the U.S. Navy on the orders of a U.S. President acting in peacetime is sufficient for his impeachment and conviction.

If we were a republic, I mean.

Our country is in danger. The "enemy from within" is Donald Trump himself, and all that he represents. This has been true since he first came down that escalator, and is even more so today.

since we're letting podcasters run the FBI now, I'd like to make it known to any future presidents that if you appoint me i will pronounce the "human" in "human trafficking" like Quark from DS9.

there will be no other substantial changes

thank you for your attention to this matter

After a morning of making pancakes and toiling in the garden, it's time for a break.

What is this reporter smoking? Since when has any American needed to pay a fee to assemble peacefully? Fuck this nazi bullshit!

I'd say our very first brake light clinic was a success. We helped 26 cars ensure they had working lights, good tire pressure, and topped off fluids. And hopefully it helps them stay out of the sights of cops looking for an easy target.

Tomorrow!!

@kzooindivisible.bsky.social is partnering with El Concilio on this community strengthening project! We've been working on the details for a while and we are hoping we can help a lot of people. 😊

My favorite thing is my daughter drawing crowns with just "no" underneath them all over the driveway.

#NoKings

I'll just hold onto what a great day I had with my daughters yesterday while @mamabear487.bsky.social worked to make WMU Band Day a great success for hundreds of high schoolers as we wrap up another shitty week in fascism.

#NoKings Oct 18th.

When the Pokémon theme comes on your queue and you just got to sit in the costco parking lot and finish it at full volume.

These constant, baseless threats and demonization of the left weight heavily on me, on us all. And it is absolutely vile the way our President continues to make calls to his base looking for an excuse to enact violence against the perceived threats on our own soil.

Trump hyped a huge autism announcement for months then followed through today with a press conference where his brain leaked out of his ears for an hour while he couldn't pronounce "acetaminophen" and yelled "DON'T TAKE ASPIRIN" over and over.

Congratulations, America.

I hear Kalamazoo is pretty cool. We're hoping to make our next No Kings 🚫👑 a big one. We got nearly 8000 last time.

My problem with capitalism is that even in the video games where you can get powerful enough to attack and destroy god they still cap your money out at 999,999,999.
