A song I learned on 1/24/26 from @singingresistancetc keeps running through my head today. The words:
Courage is not the absence of fear
It's the feeling of this fear
Being afraid and standing up anyway
#minnesotastrong#welovempls
@singingresistancetce #singingresistancetc #singiceout #iceout

Pray for Minneapolis. Pray for our country. Solidarity in song. Resist and witness.

Minneapolis is showing up and showing out. #NoKings

If you're having a bad day, here's a picture of my cat in his Halloween costume from 2 years ago before he crossed the rainbow bridge.

This Is Fascism

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

the hysteria has gone off the rails so far that the average american thinks 1 in 5 people are transgender. pure absolute insanity that is driving the current lavender scare

257. The Commission recommends that all Member States: (a) Employ all means reasonably available to them to prevent the commission of genocide in the Gaza Strip; (b) Cease the transfer of arms and other equipment or items, including jet fuel, to the State of Israel or third States where there is reason to suspect their use in military operations that have involved or could involve the commission of genocide; (c) Ensure individuals and corporations in their territories and within their jurisdiction are not involved in the commission of genocide, aiding and assisting the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide and investigate and prosecute those who may be implicated in these crimes under international law; (d) Facilitate the investigations and domestic proceedings and take action (including imposing sanctions) against the State of Israel and against individuals or corporations that are involved in or facilitating the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide; (e) Cooperate with the investigation of the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court. 258. The Commission recommends that the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court: (a) Examine, within its continuing investigation in the Situation in the State of Palestine, the crime of genocide for amendment to existing arrest warrants and addition to future application for arrest warrants; (b) Examine the involvement of officials mentioned in this report for inclusion as those most responsible for international crimes committed in the occupied Palestinian territory.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.

As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.

End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Excellent question.

Just admit it: You love your guns more than your children.

The first step is acknowledging the problem.

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do.

Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

AMERICA: “It’s a mental health issue.”

REST OF THE WORLD: “We have those. But don’t have mass shootings.”

AMERICA: “It’s video games.”

WORLD: “We have those too. But don’t have mass shootings.”

AMERICA B: “It’s cause they took Jesus out of the classroom.”

WORLD: “God, you’re stupid.”

I just discovered this meme and I love it.

Happy #PrideMonth to all my #LGBTQIA + friends!

Apparently states’ rights stop the moment women board a plane with autonomy in their carry-on.

#philipandartie are wishing a happy #caturday to all who celebrate.

Life is better with a #cat.

“If you haven’t been poor, don’t legislate for the poor.” - Rep Lateefah Simon, CA-12

Don’t forget, Chauvin’s state crimes can’t be pardoned - and that’s the longer of the two sentences. Also don’t forget the people who support that murderer.

Father Nathan Monk posted on Facebook a message. This is a screenshot of the message, which says, "You are about to watch the whole world respect a chosen name. It's that easy."

It really is this simple.
