I would rather talk about metabolism, microbiome, foraging, and science than politics. Ready to organize! Vermont flat lander. Create alternate communication methods. Organize now!

This time like being in a ship in a horrible storm.
The only way out is through & we must minimize course corrections or we will run out of gas.
Stay the course.
All the thunder is a distraction.
The lightning is unavoidable.
The waves demand our attention so we don't capsize.
Organize.
Might be time to actually start working on building the world we all want to live in.

Sounds too big.

It's not. Because if we're all working on our own little piece our puzzle will come together maybe not how "I" want it to be .. but how we want it to be.

Single payer healthcare ends insurance tyranny.

There are good bones and ideals in the democratic republic here but everything was also written when women and non white people weren't considered human/worthy of rights or inclusion. I would love to see more direct representation/involvement (even just proportional representation).

Just feels like money is disappearing into Uncle Scrooge's vault instead of working back into a future we could all share. I dunno.. what do you want? What's your daydream in this dystopia?

Max richness/wealth should be determined like the poverty rate.
Healthcare, education, housing, and nutritional needs should be universally available. We should have freedom to buy "upgrades" but everyone could have enough. Universal basic income seems pretty doable now.

I think it's time to say "no" together.

Election proves our plurality.
If we can be bothered to show up- there are so many more of us than them.

No.
No we will not take back food from the hungry.
No.

No we don't accept militarization of our cities.
No.

Republicans will refuse to feed people (39% are kids).
The Court tells Repubs they have to feed them.
Repubs refuse to feed them.
The Court doubles down & tells them they need to feed them now - and some states comply
Now

Republicans want to take back the food as it's going into people's mouths.

Snap is mostly a subsidy to big business.

Money transfer from workers to the government (taxes) then through the poor (often also workers) into the coffers of business that are exploiting the workers by not paying them a living wage.

Aww
Sheriff of nodding ham.

How can I help you run for office?

We can't vote the blaggards out if we can't vote the people in.

I need you to run.
City council.
State Rep.
Cemetery commissioner.
Senate.

We don't need political experience.
We need life experience, compassion, and curiosity.
That's you!

A vote to give up the middle finger.

You know what hurts?

Thumbs down. Maybe we give a little raspberry.
Make them feel dumb.

We need a phrase to use when Ice attacks.

I appreciate "shame" but it doesn't connect.

What about "why"? Toddlers curiosity and self-reflection.

Why?
And maybe it doesn't connect immediately but maybe it haunts that agent as they try to sleep.
November 8, 2025 at 11:27 PM
Trump is just a symptom.

Connect with people you don't know and ask questions about the world they want to live in.
Let's talk about how we can dream together.
Let's build a world we can share.

We're all being lied to.
November 8, 2025 at 10:39 PM
Can we call ambulances and fire trucks when Ice is attacking?

I've always told my kids to go to EMS or fire stations if they have a problem.

Should we festively dress like ICE agents and visit the nativity displays.
Maybe smoke bombs..

Sounds like a nice Etsy craft- miniature ICE agents to add to nativity scenes.
November 8, 2025 at 3:41 AM
Hear me out

It's like a lottery- every adult is entered.
And that replaces elections.

I'm feeling random might be better?

What if everyone had to work running the country for 2 to 4 years?

If you're disabled or need support- it's provided.

End the need for food stamps.

Support fair wages and benefits.
Support universal basic income.

There is enough for all
But it's in the hands of just a few..

There is an alternative...
Single payer...
No more insurance.

“Donald Trump and his bootlickers have torn down the Department of Education from the inside. Books are being banned. History is being erased. And Donald Trump and his cronies can f*** all the way off.”

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

No SNAP? It's time for all-inclusive, everyone-welcome Neighborhood Soup Nights- bring every doorstep to the table.

Discourse by course
Appetizer: small talk
Soup: safe topics
Main: bridge the divide
Dessert: common ground
Let's prove what community can do when we stir together.

This is what democracy looks like.
Not grass roots. Be mycelium, nurture ourselves and each other and the environment that nourishes and tends life.
Rot feeds life.
We shall overcome.
