I own a small business (follow Sisters in Cheese, please!) & advocate for small, local businesses and building community and culture in rural communities.
This made me smile so so much

As an American citizen, I personally would like to reject this EO & continue forward in the WHO. Can I reject this geriatric, pants-done-been-shitted, "executive" (okay, sure buddy) "order"?
Like. No one who's cool wants to join in on this, babe.

So there's a blockbuster movie that Dylan himself approved the script of (not a standard Dylan move) and 36 hours before the TT ban he joined (CLASSIC Dylan move). & a major part of this is Woodie Guthrie & the movie starts with this song in a court case 🤔
Thanks for keeping a dog in the fight, Bob

The good news is that the best & kindest & most creative people handle worst case scenarios better than walking through a crowded grocery store so

Just listening to Bob Dylan protest songs over and over and I guess I'm 40 years old and still the same angsty 17 year old.

Re: good music and good lyrics. You can find a song you've heard a zillion times to be entirely new when you're confronted with a new (and sometimes terrible) situation.
Music is always there.

I'm Chels (@ckjohnsen.bsky.social) & I own Sisters in Cheese. We started 7 years ago making Grazing Boards. No one else was doing it then. We have breakfast, fresh lunch items, & local retail. We're in rural Iowa & we need social media to communicate. Would you help us grow here? #iowa

Thanks @jordanthegreywitch.bsky.social for the most simplified take on the tiktok Rollercoaster. Don't thank the arsonist for putting out the fire that he started.

Small businesses like mine in rural communities have relied on antiquated social media apps for years to communicate with our customers. I don't know how to find them here, but I'm going to try. If you like pretty food & supporting local/small, give us a follow. #shopsmall #iowa #midwest

Deleted all my apps. This is horrifying as a small business owner.
I'll figure it out but truly, middle finger to all the "LEADERS" who brought us here. We know y'all have small dicks.
