Our pro-democracy movement is surging. Now it’s up to each of us to channel this incredible energy into the organizing power it will take to win.

Join us on Tuesday for a mass call of movement leaders and activists to discuss what’s next: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even... #NoKings

Happy Ace Week! Ace week runs this year from 19th to 25tb October.

This week should be about ace joy, as much as it is about awareness, education etc. but we know this week can be difficult too because with increased visibility there also comes acephobia.

Also in my Romcom idea, everyone's wardrobe makes notes to the rest of the Muppets not around. One guy in greens, one in tans, etc.

I love that decent people have not only taken the frog back, but they've taken the flag back. Folks were out there looking like Dipset-era Juelz Santana.

Even better that what I envisioned, which was a straight rom-com where the Muppet plays the "best friend" side character to one of the main leads, and no one every bats an eye, even when they go full Muppet mayhem.

think about you favorite artist(s). how their work inspires, or something they did is a core memory of who you are, or how whenever they post something you drop things immediately to give it your full attention

if you're a creator, your someone's favorite artist. they feel that way about you.

This is why "good bad" movies prevails over mediocre mainstream dross, and this is also how we get cult classics.

Hell getting up close to see the brush strokes can be more engaging than seeing the painting from across the room!

Stay connected. Stay active. Stay fired up. Join local groups who protest through weekly rallies, phone banks, canvassing, media, food outreach and more!

Hey if you went to No Kings in San Diego today and were inspired and had fun etc you should know that every Thursday at 10am there is an anti-ICE protest at the federal building downtown. Hope to see some of you there!

It’s a gigantic event, bigger than I’d imagined. The vibes are immaculate. So many normal-as-hell people of all kinds here. Exception: I had words with one content-attempting rightwing troll and I’ve never felt more like my *particular skills* were built for the moment. I am obnoxious FOR FREEDOM.

Listen! Do not let your fight against fascism stop with today’s No King’s protest—let today start & accelerate!

Register to vote, volunteer on a campaign, get involved locally, donate to a candidate you believe in, run for office—democracy is not for bystanders! Democracy needs your courage!❤️✊🏽

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”?

anyway that’s why these events are important

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.
