I love this thread. How do you live a life that's consonant with your beliefs? That helps you to align with your communities? And that positions you to be able to understand and generate the good kinds of changes our world needs? Reading does all these.
One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them.
Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is.
Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙

“We could have fixed it right then and there,” he said. “I'd hang fucking Pelosi from the lamppost.”

When the Memphis pyramid was built the Ramses exhibit was shown there. They held concerts where bands like the Grateful Dead played. NBA moved in with the Grizzlies and they wanted a fancier stadium. So city leaders scratched their heads and brought in Bass Pro. That was the best they could do. 😂

Incredible stuff. Evangelical leader Franklin Graham spent yesterday blasting Rev. Budde and claiming the cathedral had been “taken over by gay activists” — unaware that Trump had frozen a refugee program that Graham supports, and was one of the things Budde was referencing in her sermon.

It’s notable that the double Nazi salute is not only clear, it’s also perfectly in line with Elon Musk and Trump’s ideology of white genocide, great replacement theory, and the cult of reproduction.
