I finished Chuck Palahniuk’s “Fight Club” last week and I feel like Project Mayhem is what MAGA thinks Antifa is 🫠 #booksky

The fact that this coming 9 days before the largest peaceful protest in modern American history is absolutely intentional. We will not back down. Trump and Miller can lie, smear, and threaten all they want. They will lose. No Kings, No Kings, No Kings. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Yesterday's Supreme Court decision endangers our communities and subjects people to immigration stops simply because of the color of their skin, occupation, or the language they speak.

This fight isn't over. Our right to live free from racial profiling is fundamental.

Black graphic with a quote in white text: "We should not have to live in a country where the government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent." In red text, the quote is attributed to Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Dissenting in Noem v. Perdomo

Obergefell v. Hodges made me believe in the whole "arc of history bends towards justice." In the 90s, I didn't think gay marriage would be legalized in my lifetime because homophobia was so deeply ingrained. We would have never gotten here without the decision and now it may be overturned.

The room to testify against gerrymandering in Texas is full.
This is how it looks outside. All these people want to testify but there isnt enough room/time. The people of Texas oppose gerrymandering.

I read Ken Kesey's 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗙𝗹𝗲𝘄 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝘂𝗰𝗸𝗼𝗼'𝘀 𝗡𝗲𝘀𝘁. I thought it was a nice story about power and systems of control; there are some passages throughout the book about women that made me feel icky though, especially with a certain line at the climax in Part IV (?). #booksky

I read Aldous Huxley's 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱. I found it a little boring until halfway through when John was introduced, so you can see why I acted like THAT (see quoted post) when I got to the last chapter. Despite its flaws prose-wise I thought its ideas & worldbuilding were interesting 🏝️🇮🇸. #booksky

I read 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗙𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗔𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 after finishing the thematically similar 𝗣𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻𝘄𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗕𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 a few weeks prior. I was surprised to see how nuanced this was regarding views on the white men and Christianity, especially with how the dynamic Okonkwo and Nwoye had was influenced by them.

Tonight I finished 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘪𝘯-𝘎𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘈𝘭𝘭-𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘴 by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah whilst trying not to cry at a Middle Eastern coffee shop. Not only is it an engaging hunger-games-or-squid-game-esque novel but I also learned a lot about the US Prison System as well!
