The cover of a book, bright red, by Omar El Akkad. The title reads: One day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.

Remember this? It’s a model of how we should do things

Kapu Aloha

Does anyone remember the Maunakea protests? How the kanaka inhabited the mauna and came together with donations from locals and distant friends. They shared food, education, aloha from visiting dignitaries etc. We need to do something like that on the mainland this year until the coup is stopped.

I’m thinking this cold winter weather is giving many people time to think hard about what is going on and what they want to do about it. In the spring and summer things are going pop off in a big way 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Everyone should go to @generalstrikeus.bsky.social and commit to the strike

I just finished watching Dirty Dancing again. This film is the perfect allegory for the time we are in now. We the people need to continue getting over our collective fear, confront authority controlling this class war, and just do the damn lift! 💃🏻 🕺🏼 Pass it on! And watch this movie ASAP

I just took a walk and got some delicious Mexican food 🌮 🍋‍🟩

I have cardboard and markers and live near a busy intersection in a diverse neighborhood. There’s a Mexican grocery store just around the corner.

If I were to take walks carrying messages to support and motivate my community what should these signs say?

I listened to Sinead O’Connor today

I gotta get off soon and go listen 🎧

I don’t watch football anyway but would’ve if the Lions were playing

I was worried I’d drive over an hour to my capital and be the only one there wasting gas. I didn’t go because of that and I’ve been sick

Or on a somewhat regular basis like first Wednesdays and third Saturdays.

Yes let the BIPOC lead the way for once. I’m a white lady who can follow directions and learn how to provide back up

All of it I think but where to begin? I’m also concerned with making sure my basic needs continue to be met in a quickly changing environment

We need to get on the same page

How does a single person buy all their groceries at Costco? I live in a small studio with not much storage and even normal quantities of things often go bad before I can use them.

Liberty and Justice for all people of all colors, abilities, and genders is the foundation of my list 🙏🕊️

My hopeful prediction for all that is happening is that the Unintended Consequence will be that we’ll get to (and have to) recreate the government systems that are being deleted and destroyed. Start making your wish lists for what you want this reformed United States to look like.
