Liberal geek trying to survive in Texas. New to activism but insanely stubborn. Democracy is the hill I'd die on. With liberty and justice for all is not a slogan to me.

Yeah, that was so lame. All of those Dems are spineless and intensely poor at messaging if they can't show they oppose indiscriminate murder. Do we really want Dems who are that bad at messaging? Isn't that how we got Schumer and Jeffries?

They'll be a lawsuit, right?

I came here just to say this. Also, who saved the buffalo from extinction? Scientists. He's such a stupid dick

It's Putin's people punking them.

He assumed they were here illegally. The story didn't say that

And winter is coming

They do, but I'm worried people won't remember those days. I worked w/ someone a long time ago who told me he could never leave our employer, who treated him like shit. His daughter was born w/ a condition that would require surgeries over her life. A preexisting condition. He could never chng ins

And he was not shot, unless he had an ear transplant

Seriously, when did reading comprehension and similar skills go down the toilet in this country?

I love her. She is amazing. I'm so sad that she didn't get more time to continue her exceptional work. I hope the next Dem President appoints her again, and gives her an army of a staff to do good work for the American people.

Whoa. Is the media finally grasping the moment?

Auntie Mame 🇺🇦☮️🇬🇱 @auntiemamelives.bsky.social · 13h

I work about him, coming here. I don't think it's safe

Bought my frog suit

I will stand whispering/screaming, w/ whatever strength I have left, against the tide of fascism that has left us bereft. With my heart and soul, I believe in freedom, in equality for all, in logic and reason. This is America. Land of the free. Home of the brave. They can't stop us, this tidal wave

They are growing more violent. They want to provoke violence in us. We MUST stay peaceful, so it's hard for them to use the Insurrection Act. They want us to be violent.

More flowers, more inflatables, more singing. We need to stay strong, and peaceful.

Yeah, it's just some folk story that everyone enjoyed, and they decided to embrace the national delusion and make it a holiday. Like Remember the Alamo in Texas. "You mean remember the immigrants who refused to follow the law banning slavery in their adopted home of Mexico? I'll pass."

Auntie Mame 🇺🇦☮️🇬🇱 @auntiemamelives.bsky.social · 14h

Modern heroes, man. They just stand up to fascists

Auntie Mame 🇺🇦☮️🇬🇱 @auntiemamelives.bsky.social · 14h

Are they confused?

Auntie Mame 🇺🇦☮️🇬🇱 @auntiemamelives.bsky.social · 14h

I really like you

Auntie Mame 🇺🇦☮️🇬🇱 @auntiemamelives.bsky.social · 16h

Well said, sir. So when ICE starts breaking your laws, will you start arresting them?

Auntie Mame 🇺🇦☮️🇬🇱 @auntiemamelives.bsky.social · 17h

Yeah, this is just stupid. Way to read the moment, Dems. Platner is a much better candidate

Auntie Mame 🇺🇦☮️🇬🇱 @auntiemamelives.bsky.social · 19h

Yeah, do they want Covid all of the time? We could close public schools and parents could teach their own children. I'm sure that would work out wonderfully.

Auntie Mame 🇺🇦☮️🇬🇱 @auntiemamelives.bsky.social · 19h

No one is paying me, but I will be there with bells on

In red states, they have made that very difficult. For example, in Texas, you have to be disabled, very old, or in the military to be able to view by mail. They want to make it hard to vote because they are betting that we won't care enough to show up.

OMG. What's up media?
