It still boggles my mind that so many people couldn't grasp last year how significantly more morally depraved a second Trump term would be in comparison to the first. And how so many people still can't comprehend that our national crisis isn't about politics, but simple morality.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us.
We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again.
That's the revolution.

Never forget that homelessness is a policy choice.
They would rather send in the National Guard to arrest and remove unhoused people than provide affordable housing and a living wage.
Suffering as policy.
The cruelty is the point.

FYI - we can care about a new Taylor Swift album and marriage equality simultaneously. We can celebrate a new personal best and fight ICE on the same day. We can gush about a sapphic romance, and decry human rights violations with one voice.
We can feel joy and outrage with the same heart. We must!

What the actual hell?! A close Trump advisor and MAGA figure just posted, “Alligator lives matter. The good news is alligators are guaranteed 65 million meals if we get started now.” This is disgusting, it’s genocidal language. Dehumanizing, dangerous, and unacceptable. How is this even real life?

Planned Parenthood provides critical health care, including:
Birth control.
Cancer screenings.
STI testing.
PReP.
It’s all essential—and extremists would rather deny access to it than protect it.

You can’t “try harder” your way out of disability.
All the “wellness”, yoga and healthy food in the world won’t ‘cure’ you.
It’s not a moral failing. It’s not the result of bad choices. It’s not something a person ‘chooses’ at all.
Disability can and does happen to most of us.

Anyone can become disabled at any time. It’s one of the few minority groups you can always join.
Even if you do everything “right”. Even if you’re young and healthy. Even if you “try hard”
It’s not a moral failing. It’s a part of life. Engage in disability justice.
