If you are a federal worker, there are several credit unions and other financial institutions that are offering zero interest loans during the government shutdown.

I couldn’t not post this. It deserves a Pulitzer besides being one of the most iconic photos of the modern age. #WesternSpring

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I don’t pray but I’m willing to try for Dolly Parton. Those of you who do, please send them.
Positive energy and healing thoughts are headed her way regardless.

In non partisan elections you can read up on the things a candidate has done or supports. You can ask your like minded friends or consult the League of Women Voters for their research. Vote for people who support what YOU support.

Very much worth a read.
@marcelias, I join you in refusing to let hopelessness prevail. I will fight with all the privilege and power I have at my hand to keep this country from failing.

Marc Elias @marcelias.bsky.social · 2d

I refuse to let hopelessness prevail. This may just be one essay, by a lawyer few have heard of, in a newsletter read by a fraction of the public. But I will not stay silent.

Will you?

Your community, red or blue, can be won or lost in these local elections. Off year races are notoriously low turnout. Get out to the polls and make sure your voice is heard.

This Election Day may seem unimportant because there are no “big” offices on the ballot but many states hold their nonpartisan municipal elections in off years. Races for city council, school boards, county judgeships are VITALLY important to the day to day functions of your community! Participate!

Long thread but very interesting re the new and scary intersection between Treasury, IRS, and SSA.

AltSSA @altssa.altgov.info · 2d

I don’t have a lot of time so quick thread on exactly WHY what I posted about today is so bad. TLDR: it’s like the most convoluted fucked up incestuous polycule I’ve ever heard of. 🥴🥴🥴

First who is everybody? Scott Bessent is the Secretary of the Treasury so cabinet member from hedge fund land.

I learned this weekend the value of de-escalation when our weekly protest was involved in an incident. This is valuable info that could literally save your life. And everyone can use a brush-up on what their rights are, especially since no one else will protect you except YOU.
