We all have to do it together. It won’t be any one single person, it’ll be all of us collectively deciding that this shit needs to stop. Find your local communities and get involved if you aren’t already (and if you are, thank you)

@jysexton.bsky.social is new to me this year. I absolutely love the weekly "check-ins" he's been doing w/his friend @daniellemoodie.bsky.social

Listen for perspective, or as Danielle shared, "modeled vulnerability" during this incredibly hard time in America.

So here’s the rule:
📵 If a political text seems sketchy—delete it.
🤔 If the group is unfamiliar—Google before you give.
✅ Donate directly to candidates, orgs, or trusted movement partners.

P.S. I'll keep you posted on the spending reports that come out of the No Kings PAC as they file with the FEC.

How are you doing today?
June 13, 2025 at 1:10 PM
Done, first thing today.
US House will vote on Trump's defund of public media very soon; it will all come down to the wire. If enough of us speak out, we can save NPR and PBS. 2 House Republicans have said they oppose the cuts; Trump can only lose 3 votes. Call your congressperson now, esp if you’re in a red district.
