The difference between organizing and activism is that activism is looking all sexy and organizing is that slough of hours in the gym. Both are interdependent.

This is not normally my genre, but it really pisses me off that some jerkface cowards count this as a win. So I will make sure to support this indie bookstore. Sharing in case there are others on #BookSky who feel the same.

Sen. Deever & Rep. Woolley SB 456 want abortion to be 1st degree murder.
Gollihare: If an abortion provider’d get 5 yrs, how w equal protection would a woman get 1st degree?
Deevers: It’d be equal protection. The Abortion Providers would get the same or one could be tried for murder and accessory.

I am not really sure I understand this bill. It passed. They reduced how long someone could serve and the fine associated with it because “OSBI didn’t need the money.”

I love our official white house social has Trump as King on it. I thought Americans were so over kings that we had a war about it, but I’m sure I was liberally woke indoctrinated throughout school.

Also, where did America go? Or are they saying they’re SENDING AMERICA BACK? Regressive politics

SB 524 Polling Place Carry passed committee.

Sen. Goodwin asked about the threat being from people coming in with a gun & bringing their anger to the site. Aren’t we just making it legal for those to do so? He did the good guy argument. Did he consider armed security; he said no.

Given that Oklahoma already ranks in the bottom 10 states for many quality-of-life measures, is it safe to cut state revenue even more? In this week's Policy Matters column, executive director Shiloh Kantz writes that the path to zero is a dangerous road.

The other day a friend and I were sitting in a bar celebrating a good day. I reached out and handed her a list of books I want to acquire. In retrospect, that is weird. But my friend took them and talked about books on there that she had read.

I was asked to come and represent @MomsDemand at a community roundtable. Of course! Community starts with conversation! Join in!

Do one thing every day. Avoid exhaustion by being intentional.

My State Senator, Rusty Black, sent out his newsletter saying he is working to overturn the will of voters on the abortion amendment. I responded to him. It took about two minutes.

Work intentionally. Don’t get worn down.

In all honesty, people who know they should don’t always. The number one reason is because they can’t afford it. That is why a tax credit for #securestorage would go a long way in helping reduce the chances of criminals getting their hands on a firearm.
Cars parked at residences (in driveways, outside homes, etc.) are the most common source of stolen guns, demonstrating the importance of securely storing guns at all times and locations. Each stolen firearm represents a weapon in the hands of a potential criminal, making all of us less safe.

“An exuberant speech” that is what we call it now. WoW
“The New York Times went with ‘Elon Musk Ignites Online Speculation Over the Meaning of a Hand Gesture.’ The Washington Post opted for ‘Elon Musk gives exuberant speech at inauguration.’ Some local TV stations even cut their footage right before the first and most obvious salute.”

Like all decent upstanding Telegraph readers , I am disgusted that President Trump was ambushed by a request to be merciful - mercy and kindness and care are not Christian values but the values of perverts , freaks and beatniks

Oh, I don’t think that was an honest mistake.

He did this on purpose. You cannot tell me differently. This is to incite people because he thinks this shit is funny. And he will say, no, I was simply saying “my heart goes out to you.”
Whilst he has also been antagonizing leaders from other countries and pushing extremist agendas.

When anything bad happened, I’d tell my son, let’s go do something. Clean the park or a dirty lot in our town/volunteer somewhere/donate. If bad things happen, do some good! Even small acts, keep you from feeling helpless. You connect with humanity. Don’t stay where your hope is dying, plant hope!

National media continues to spin the reasons Democrats can’t win in rural spaces.

Democrats aren’t here doing the work. They come in every four years for six weeks and then pack up until the next cycle.
Come back to rural America. Stay even after the election. Put up a fight. Contest every seat.

My husband told me I could buy 2 books at the bookstores party last night. They give you alcohol, appetizers, & 15 percent discount. I live in a rural area, it doesn’t take much to excite me!
I will argue that this is *NOT* 3 books, but 2.5 and since I didn’t eat dinner I reallocated the funding.

This is why though I would love to work in a bookstore or library, I can’t.

The most incompetent man in our state’s educational system got the job because he never attended meetings, mishandled funds, sat in his car makibg videos blubbering on about “woke liberals,” but had an R behind his name. He wants more unqualified people administering education in #Oklahoma.
