I find myself surrounded by ppl who are just mildly upset about rights being stripped away from human beings. People i thought were advocates and warriors, only to find they quickly become complicit and settle into this new normal. Am I over reacting or did I just misjudge those around me?

Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it.

It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

You know that building daily rage as your rights are slowly, and quickly, being dismantled and one comment from an unsuspecting person sets you off?

Welcome to the POC world of micro aggressions. Now imagine everyday of your life has been like this and ask yourself why POC aren't raging 24/7!

Big moves today (for me anyway)

Delete Facebook
Canceled Netflix
Deactivated goodreads

Feels tough but I'm 41 so life without all these apps feeding the oligarchy is not unimaginable. Using my money and time to do what I can.

Trumpers: I hate gays/trans/black/immigrants......

Translation: I hate that you are living your most authentic selves while I am a willing sour, miserable pawn in a game of control and power.

Remember: they don't hate us, they hate their own souls.

I WFH and am an amateur artist. My office is my art studio. Friday- Sunday it feels like an oasis of creativity, imagination, Joy and escape. Monday - Thursday it's a prison of pointless work, mundane tasks and watching myself be a cog in the capitalism machine. I hate Mondays
