It’s hard during these times to find and hold on to hope. To feel you CAN make a difference, to save humanity. But her wise, calmly delivered message here has given me that hope and has inspired my determination to do all I can. I believe she IS watching. Let’s make her proud.

I now believe that “Covfefe” was the most coherent thing the rapey, racist, felonious, orange shitbag ever said/posted. How scary is that?

I traveled around Europe when G.W. Bush was president, gladly going along when mistaken as Canadian out of embarrassment that we elected such an idiot. If I traveled there now I would straight up PROFESS to be.

I work in retail and I come in contact with people so…dumb and helpless, yet entitled that I seriously wonder how they drove themselves to where I work. Not to mention how they function out in their world. I call them “baby birds” and bc of them I totally get how TFG became president.

Often when I think of how f-ed up things are in the world, I wish there was a streaming service that played shows from my childhood in the order they originally aired, with commercials from that time (70s & 80s). I think I’d really find some comfort in that.

Red State Spirits: This company produces a separate product named True American Vodka, bottled by Red State Spirits in Missouri. It features a label with an image of Donald Trump.

I implore my fellow Missourians to boycott this company and this shit.

What does Venezuela possess that the U.S would be interested in controling?

What does Nigeria possess that the U.S would be interested in controling?

Venezuela has the world's largest proven oil reserves.

Nigeria is Africa's largest oil producer.
Remember Iraq?

America’s still terrified of powerful women in politics.

It’s pure misogyny baked into the system. Add race to the mix and it’s on a whole different level of hate that most won’t even admit. Time to get over that shit!

Let’s take a step forward on Tuesday.

Re: #SNAP loss - everyone seems to focus on families with kids, and rightly so, but people, please check on your #elderly neighbors. They may not be as connected or aware, they might not drive, and the need will be significant. Please make sure they have access to #food as best you can.

*uncontrollable screaming intensifies*
On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

If you’re able to donate to food banks, don’t forget to ask your local shelter if they have a pet food bank. Shelters are always overwhelmed when things are good, but when money gets tight pets are one of the first things people get rid of. I know it’s a relief for people to have help for their pets
