We didn’t all show up at the polls just to see everything we fought for and voted for there to fall apart in the halls of Congress. Grow a pair. Grow a few pairs. It’s health care and food for all or nothing at all.

I sometimes find myself wondering how people continue sharing cat pictures and videos about their makeup and all that sort of stuff on social media when our country is about to be drawn into war with our president. AREN'T YOU PEOPLE PAYING ATTENTION?

“We Are the World” would not have existed without “Do They Know it’s Christmas?” And this is a hill I will die on with zero regrets.
And may I add—where the fuck is this kind of commitment today? For Gaza? For Sudan? And for all the other places where people, especially children are dying? #LiveAid

My county is in turmoil, but not as bad as some would have you believe. And yet, the soldiers (from DHS and ICE and god knows where else) are gathering to make it look like LA County is a cesspool of insurrectionists. No, just people who are demanding their rights. Apparently that's a no-no.

I’m already tired of calling out these MAGAts looking for a conspiracy in how “they” must have been hiding Biden’s cancer because it’s already stage 4. Honey, if they could catch every cancer at stage 1, cancer wouldn’t be deadly.

People, be aware that if they succeed with the near-total defunding of Medicaid, they'll take that as a license to hit Medicare and Social Security next. Consequences for them now because later will be too late.

The wearing down is very very real. And that’s what they’re looking to do—wear us down to the point where we just can’t bring ourselves to fight or even care anymore. Keep caring. It hurts like hell, but keep caring.

Here's how revolutions evolve. A great deal of talking. Then more talking. And even more talking. Until one day someone says, "Enough! This talking thing ain't working." And then the streets run red with blood.

So the Met Gala is tomorrow. Why TF is this even happening this year? All that money spent on fluff and prancing about when marginalized people of all kinds and from all over this country and the world are being written off by the same privileged class showing off in NYC? No thanks.

DOGE was never about savings. It was always about surveillance.
Over the weekend, we released new details—and now whistleblowers are coming forward too. What’s becoming clearer by the day: DOGE isn’t a government efficiency program. It’s a data weapon aimed at the American people.

FYI Katy Perry was not the first person to sing in space. And since Hadfield has more than one recording to his credit, one could argue she’s not even the first artist to do so.
