(What tips the scale for me...)
Will it be an entry point into more meaningful direct action and community organizing? Absolutely, for some.
Does it help people in red states felel less abandoned? I think so.
Is it a free outside hang on a sunny day that pisses some truly terrible people off? Yep!
Is a march going to fix things? Nope!
Will staying home and doing nothing fix things? Nope!
Will staying home and whining on the internet about other people marching fix things? Also nope! 🤷🏻

“I prefer direct action” cool ok well you do that and you can also let boomers hold signs en masse. It doesn’t have to be one or the other.

Some buzz around the RFK byte where he lists conditions he "never heard of" but not much about what he says after--disabled people are "bankrupting the country" and a security threat since we can't do military service. About as close to verbatim N*zi talking point as you can get in translation.

#utoledo is falling in line with SB1 and just cut the following degrees. shameful. they’re hiding behind the rationale that these degrees are not profitable or in-demand rather than admit that they’re taking steps to eliminate DEI across the university.

Hey everyone!

I’m on NPR’s “It’s been a minute” talking about the R word.

The R-word is back. But why? : It's Been a Minute
Over the past few years, Brittany has noticed the resurgence the R-word - a word that otherwise left the cultural lexicon. And while that's troubling in and of itself, its return may also have larger ...

It's always been the case that "buying" an ebook from amazon was only actually a loan they could rescind at any point, but lately Amazon have gone harder on this, and it is 100% so that they can wipe banned books from your libraries without your consent.

Buy direct from authors. Get your files.

also ask about interlibrary loan! in Ohio, that’s SearchOhio or OhioLINK. in Michigan that’s MeL :) you can get books from all over the state this way
if your library doesn't carry a book you'd like to read, make a recommendation (there's often a form for this on your library's website)! not only will you hopefully get to read said book, others will also be able to check it out too!

If you’re cis & you want trans folks to know they’re valid and cared for, here’s a tip: Don’t say it to a trans person. Go talk to a cis person.

Talk to your dad. Your coworker. Your friends. Ask if they know whats going on. Ask if they have uncertainties when it comes to the ~trans issue.~

unfortunately for these folks the odds are that they aren’t going to go after violent criminals at all — too hard — and going to go exclusively over the easiest targets, which are law abiding workers

now more than ever we need to listen to people who are POLITICALLY active in their respective communities. your individualistic approach isn’t helping anyone

I’ve shared on other platforms but wanna restate it. Check out your local library. A lot of them offer more than books like movies, video games and more. They also offer digital options that are free with your card and still supports them.
