Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

"there’s enough destruction.
there’s enough nothingness swallowing the living world.
don’t add to it. there’s enough.
our visions are ropes through the devastation.
look further ahead, like our ancestors did, look further. extend, hold on, pull, evolve.”

Same, Zuko.
This is Zuko. He has decided he's done with winter. If anyone can expedite the arrival of summer, he'd really appreciate it. 12/10

Thousands of people attended a Presidents Day protest in New York on Monday to oppose the Trump administration's policies, including major cuts to federal programs and staff. Demonstrations also took place in Washington, D.C., and other cities.

This is what my wife, my 9 year old son, and I see as we go through the door to the garage to start our day. It's our reminder to never back down, never stop fighting.

Let's talk about Sunrise’s protest last night at the DNC forum. Some pundits on this site are missing the mark (intentionally or not).

In order to win, Dems need to reject the billionaire influence that is shaping the Trump administration.

We refuse to repeat history.
Trump Leans on WWII Japanese Incarceration Law to Deport Immigrants

the fascists are looking to rigidly define gender not just to punish trans people like they claim but to lay the groundwork for the oppression of all women. when gender is legally mutable, it is harder to use it to restrict people’s rights.
