GOOD NEWS: A federal court temporarily halted President Trump's order to freeze all federal funding, including grants for public health, education, and safety.

Trump's order would have devastating consequences for communities in every corner of the nation. Our leaders must block it for good.

Monday marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp. An estimated 1,100,000 people, mainly Jews, were murdered there during the Holocaust.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Welp. I just had a talk with my husband about what I’d be willing to go to jail for. I am not the person I wish I were, but I found the line.

I don’t want to go to jail. But there’s other things I don’t want even more.

What a weird talk to have, though.

A conversation that took place right now-

Family member: he’s just an idiot doing it for attention

Me: Sir, he is a NAZI. Do not even BEGIN to make excuses for what that fucking goblin did or downplay the intent.

Y’all we are ashkenazi Jews by DNA. The brainwashing is deep and scary out here.

If you figure out how let me know. After Hitler there were neighbors who never spoke again.

Today we have the power to remember a man who gives people hope even in his immense absence. Please give all your attention to the right message today and remember it is important to have hope and it is important to not give the wrong person your attention today.

Martin Luther King, Jr. fought to end our nation's deliberate neglect and abuse of Black Americans. He was relentlessly targeted by our government for his views and pursuit of equality.

At this pivotal moment, we honor his legacy by fighting injustice in all its forms, with everything we've got.

Truth in words and picture

We are dealing with individualism vs collectivism. Down to the very social media app you use and how you choose to interact with your community.

TikTok was one of the only apps where I felt like people actually cared about what I had to say and were interested in reading diverse books. I know community can be found and built on other platforms, but I’ll really miss the BookTok & writertok community I found there 🥹🥲 #booktok #booksky

“I never downloaded TikTok anyway”

Here you go goofy ho

🍪

I kind of expect people to be surprised that I’m autistic but literally everyone is always like, “Yeah, we knew it was something.” which is something I don’t want to think too deeply about

It’s always a good time, but especially now, to bookmark the websites of artists you like. Maybe even have an offline list of names of folks you want to keep up with/support in your notes app or whatever. Never know what app, website, etc will be banned next. 🤡
