Hakeem Jeffries is buying time for us to make more calls. If you haven't called your Congressmen yet, particularly if they're a Republican, now is the time to do so.

The cop looked right at the camera before aiming and firing at an obvious journalist who had her back turned to the cops, across a wide open, stable space. Shameful. And it's not just ICE.

These MFers need to understand deep in their bones that they are social pariahs.

There are two ways we can react to experiencing injustice.

We can say, "That was awful. I don't want anyone to ever experience that again."

Or we can say, "That was awful. Only the people I want to suffer should experience that."

If you're in that second group, you are not my ally.

New in PN: Arresting judges is a 5-alarm escalation

"It’s not just that Dugan was arrested, but how she was arrested. The whole point was to cause a scene. There’s no allegation she was attempting to evade arrest, but the FBI still forced a sitting judge to do a perp walk at her place of work."

My newest sapphic obsession. I usually don't ever give Netflix props but this one went off.

Today is a good day to divest from Amazon and instead support small businesses.*

By using Libro.fm instead of Audible, your audiobook purchases support independent bookshops 😍

*Every day is a good day to support small businesses!

I am an adult lesbian
I suffer from a disability
I also suffer from extreme anxiety and ADHD
Without Medicaid right now I would not be able to afford any of my health needs. My medicine, my therapy, my physical therapy, or my many specialists.
I would be unable to be a productive citizen. 1/2
Just a reminder -

I am lesbian
I am first generation Latina
I am disabled
I am audhd
I grew up on many of the programs this gov is ending

This page is for love, friendship and community.

You may call me radical, I simply call myself human.

Do not bring your bullshit onto this page.

the problem with re-watching andor is that it makes you into an annoying person. you will bring it up at the bus stop. people are just trying to live their lives and you're making them watch the "i made my mind into a sunless space" monologue on your phone

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

Friends tell friends about Libro.fm so they also start supporting their independent bookshop with audiobooks 🥰

And if they start a membership using your unique link, you get a free audiobook credit 😉 libro.fm/refer

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations.

When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ❤️

it's been said before but it's wild that these guys have more money and power than anyone on earth and still have unshakeable loser energy. none of them would survive the cafeteria of a public high school. give me a five-minute phone call with j.d. and i could make him cry

I was ready to give this book a solid 3 stars five chapters in and call it a day. But I decided to keep going & I'm so glad I did, that Epilogue was so worth it (though not sure I'll be forgiving the author anytime soon). For anyone who is a fan of #blymanor, this book is for you! #queerlit #queer

You know my favorite thing ever? When @fllyingstars.bsky.social sends me messages of a random documentary she's watching and shares her entire day because we don't live together anymore 😭 it's like I'm sort of there lol
