The worst thing you can do right now is hide or go quiet.

Stand up and talk back.

Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

I can't stop thinking about how imprisoning a woman for ending a non-viable pregnancy is "protecting the rights of children not-yet-born", but which prolifers are protecting the rights of kids to get vaccines and not die of measles and other VPDs? Bc they're dying.

As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address:

Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.

No Democratic member of Congress should sit thru the SotU. For maximum impact, as soon as Tr*mp comes out, all Dems rise and silently walk out together. Make it a spectacle. @aoc.bsky.social
If you were in Congress, what would you do for the State of the Union? What do you think Dems should do?

A German word for being embarrassed by the actions of someone else is Fremdscham, or “foreign shame.” A similar word from Icelandic is aulahrollur, which is quite tricky to translate but basically means something along the lines of “cringe quake” or “douchebag chills”
