I hope so. I really do. And there will be some, I hope it’s enough.

Let’s assume from now on- no, I’m not ok. I have serious doubts I ever will be again, because the world just takes in a chain reaction. Last winter it took almost everything away while I dissociated so hard I expelled my awareness. Now n@71$ are ripping people out of homes and cars. When am I next?

I can't even breathe, I am so fucking angry. White women, we have this "privilege" of a meek, harmless narrative and we're gonna use it. FEMINISM MATTERS.

Women are being erased at the Pentagon. Women are being erased from history. And now a woman has been erased from the desecrated White House.

Good sci fi movies? Bonus for something apocalyptic or future.
AKA I'm by myself tonight & I've got the communal depression. I'd rather watch movies that say we're at least doing better than having to punch aliens like Will Smith- than being tempted to DoorDash an ice cream cake from DQ to sob into.

The military’s independence — the very idea that no president can use the armed forces as his personal army — is being dismantled piece by piece.

Rewrite the rules. Rebrand power grabs as “reforms.” By the time the public wakes up, the guardrails are gone.
Trump has openly said he wants generals who show “total loyalty.”
Hegseth is making that happen.

...and boasting that a plan is in place to make it happen. Whether that’s bluster or blueprint, the danger is the same: a movement testing how far it can push the boundaries of law and loyalty.
This is how democracies slide—slowly, legally, one rationalization at a time. Replace the watchdogs.

Put those two efforts together—control over elections and control over the military—and a picture starts to form. One arm consolidates political power; the other dismantles the institutions that could resist it.
Trump advisers like Steve Bannon are already talking openly about a “third term” ...

...who helped spread false fraud claims about '20, suggested the pres. could declare a nat'l emergency in '26 to “federalize” elections—taking power away from state officials who run them.
Voting-rights groups call it what it is: “a federal strategy to control elections and rig our democracy.”

Constitution and a president who sees the armed forces as a personal tool. When they’re gone, there’s no one left to say “no.”
At the Dept. of Homeland Security, Trump has installed election-denial activists in key roles. The New York Times reports that Heather Honey, a former private investigator..

It’s been a full month since Adelita Grijalva was elected to the House, but Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in — because Grijalva would be the decisive 218th signature to force a vote on releasing the Epstein Files. Take action with our social toolkit: app.sosha.ai/toolkit/adel...

(next to images of Adelita Grijalva and House Democrats demanding that Grijalva is sworn in) SWEAR IN GRIJALVA NOW!

Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva — because her vote could force the House to release the Epstein Files. The GOP is doing everything they can to keep Trump's Epstein cover-up going.

Just a reminder also, in case you had any reason to question, Kristi Noem actually SHOT her dog because he wanted to play and run and not be a hunting dog. Then she shot her goat too. The beauty of that moment below means way more than one thing.

Innocent interest, that's all! Certain aspects of revolutionary and post-revolutionary France and French lit from that period was once my concentration. Louis XVI existe encore, mais aujourd'hui il est même plus imbécile. Fascinant, n'est-ce pas?
