Well worth checking out. The symbolism and lessons of the Wizard of Oz are as pertinent today as when it was originally created!

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week.

Don’t let him.

That Biden should have to issue preemptive pardons for men and women who defended the Constitution is a sad comment on Trump's vengeful nature.

The next time you’re invited to your partner’s terrible work event, “pull a Michelle Obama,” Caitlin Flanagan writes. “Put your feet up, enjoy a steady blood pressure, and fill three hours of your life any way you see fit”:

A reminder.

Hell, a rule to live by.
"Do not obey in advance.

Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, & then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do."

Love this: Grill Baby Grill. Let's go, journalism!
I’m amazed by the lack of journalistic scrutiny American politicians are exposed to from the media.
These guys promised to fix the price of eggs and fuel, as well as end the war in Ukraine and more. But now: “Oh, but it’s complex?!”🙄
Well then, journalists; you know what to do: #Grill_baby_grill!

This is mildly encouraging but will probably be a rounding error in terms of actual user action on Meta apps. There is demand for alternative communication tools. I saw people on my feed asking for this. Friendica? Pixelfed ? Signal ?
