Playing D&D with friends and inevitably we talk politics a bit.

DM: "Let's focus! We are talking about the monsters we can slay; not the ones we can't."

the “administrative state” in practice is a lot of very hard working, practically anonymous people doing the thankless work of making this country run and a drug-addled dipshit is slandering them in order to steal our money for himself

When they try to take our everything, they also take the fear.

Everyone's a revolutionary until it's time to do revolution shit (meetings, logistics, laundry and dishes, actual work).

A longform essay on something different...

IMO in an emergency, I think we need to prioritize what gets results, not engage in purity contests around which apps are the most moral for doomscrolling while the world burns.

Never forget that the “I came here legally” is a false narrative because this was never colonizers’ land to decide who can be here and who can’t.

we're 10 days in and they've managed to make eggs 900 dollars and kill the national ice skating team

Just planted 100 trees in our watershed. This is one of the ways we survive the horrors. Posting now so I don't forget.

So Trump's shutting down of the entire government's funding system for American projects is literally so he can go line by line and target transgender people and other minorities.

When we said transphobia affects cis people too, well... here you go.

Ironic that he's a fellow LSU alum, because this is literally my experience as a southerner living on the west coast, listening to highly educated liberals talk about the south in the most deranged and punitive terms. 🥴

(I'm joking, but this Us vs. Them attitude within the working class is exactly the kind of brain rot that will make our communities and streets objectively less safe over the many unsafe years to come.)

Yesterday, we saved our neighbor's dog who got stuck in the fence. I almost lost a finger to a chainsaw keeping her secure. The dog is unscathed, but unfortunately I just learned that I should have called ICE on her owners instead. I'm pretty sure they didn't vote for my pick! #resist #activism

This is what it's like to volunteer as a public servant in a small town. 🤡

Who else is here to network!🙏🏻

This really is a safe space, thank u dril.

Wow finally, a post on this app that isn't just hand-wringing in our newest little bubble and points out exactly what we need to be focused on to actually change our material reality for the better. Problem is: it looks like work! Uh oh!

I'm gonna keep it real with y'all, I never liked the Twitter format and the fact that everyone here agrees with each other makes it even more boring. Thankfully, leftists are famous for infighting, and I'm sure it will get interesting soon!
