When Trump dies-- could be at any point, who knows -- we get Vance.
They'll blame a lot of stuff on Trump AND try to fast-track an even uglier Christofascism.
We must be preparing for this now & organizing accordingly.
Grassroots activism, coalitions. Dissent. Sand in gears. GOTV.
Every angle.

While many simply expressed their grief for Charlie Kirk and his family following the fatal killing of the conservative activist Wednesday, many politicians on both sides of the aisle also condemned the killing.
But some public figures used the moment to make incendiary claims.

With so many excellent reasons to dunk on Dean Cain, there's no need to resort to bodyshaming. In fact, there's no reason to bodyshame anyone ever.

Remember when we were all "Wow, I wish somebody said something about Biden's mental decline when they first noticed the signs"?
Trump: I solved 6 wars, I am averaging a war per month. Including wars that lasted 500 years.

So many people I know in the US are emotionally dysregulated (politically, how could you not be?) and their relationships are paying the price.
It’s tough to watch so many of us take it out on each other, whether with friends, family, neighbors, coworkers, public figures, comment sections.

Asking for help is NOT giving up.
When you realize you cannot do it alone, and you DON'T ask for help, is the moment you gave up.
Asking for help re-ignites the flame to keep going.

When people say vile things during tragedy if could be that they are vile, or tone deaf, but it is *most likely* that they are Klout/outrage farming. Don’t repost them. Don’t quote tweet them. Block them, “hide from everybody” them from your comments, and move on.

Seriously want to include this statement (properly cited, obvs) on all syllabi next year.
Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.
@roxanegay.bsky.social maybe you’re right.

Georgia folks, Chris Carr has joined the lawsuit to upend protections for people with disabilities. Atrocious. Time for more emails and more calls to let our AG know this is unacceptable and that Georgia must drop out of the case.

This is the correct response! Well done!
I got an email from my son’s school saying they’re not letting ICE in the building (and everyone got training on not letting them in) and also they’re having a parent meeting with free immigration lawyers for whoever needs and anyway I definitely chose the right school
