My dad, who has lived under a dictatorship, knows one when he sees one. His first text this morning is that we are now officially in a dictatorship. It is all pretty grim.

I know a lot of us have doubts about whether we could organize a potluck or book club, nevermind a revolution.
So if you need to start with potlucks and book clubs, try that for starters.

Question: Why do folks expect advocacy, community organizing, and actual governing from entertainers rather than their own elected officials or community leaders?
Folks have more smoke for performers than they do for folks who they chose, in one way or another, to actually solve their problems.

As a hospital HR director, I’m telling you: check on your loved ones often when they’re hospitalized.
Stay on those nurses’ asses. Learn names, shift changes, all that.
Let them know that patient has people who care and will pop up if something seems off.
It matters more than you think.

When the Nazis were 1st establishing the deportation/extermination camps, they didn’t use the gas chambers just b/c of the efficiency of mass killing but b/c they had noticed the mental toll face-to-face cruelty & killing was having on Nazi soldiers by shooting captives

“They Not Like Us” is PLURAL.
There’s a BUNCH of folks that lines in that song apply to, especially “You not a colleague, you’re a colonizer.”

He's saying it out loud and people are still finding ways to contort themselves into "well it's not REALLY a coup"
Because acknowledging what it really is would mean having to make a choice. It's not an easy choice. I get it. But pretending you don't have to make it won't make it disappear

A foreign-born billionaire has infiltrated almost every major bureau of the federal government and has dismantled the entire US soft power system. Republican Senators continue to abdicate their duties and appoint a white supremacist to run the budget. The law is only a suggestion.
