Yeah, my rep is Tom Emmer. He's a piece of shit crypto Mogul who loves Trump. He has done a couple of town halls, a while ago, where he was skewered, after Governor Tim Walz has called him out specifically.

My neck of the woods needs stronger collective organizing. I wanted to start an SURJ chapter here but they're not interested. Collective action needs more bodies than just me.

@inthehands

The thing about calling your Republican representative is they don't answer the phone. It rings and rings.

Investing in the infrastructure of the United States is not the same thing as stealing. It's not like FDR launched a crypto coin for fucks sake. He launched the national Park system, built roads and made sure everyone had a bathroom.

US: Trump administration revokes legal migrant status for 500,000 people

I'm vegan and I try not to buy plastic. I also boycott palm oil. Because of your posts, I boycott. Without your gentle reminders, I probably would buy the vanilla wafers in the cardboard box. But the macaw and the orangutans are so much more important to me than a cookie. Thank you.

Sounds like a less negative world, but fascists love to twist the meaning of words into their opposite.

Some evangelicals are waking up and questioning what they're told. Some of them compare Trump to Jesus and the orange demon falls way short. But most of them, like my cousin, think the rapture is gonna carry 144,000 of them away to a special place with virgins.

Tell that to my husband!

The frustration of playing a game on an unsupported platform is well known to me. I use a Mac with a teeny tiny little hard drive that does not support the complexity of strategic games like Europa Universalis or The Long Dark. But damn it, I put long frustrating hours in anyway, lol.

I heard about it at the moment it happened, and then he had to sit in jail for several more weeks. I've been fighting for Leonard Peltier for a long time. His freedom is a healing light during a dark time. #FreeThemAll

@br00t4c

He walked out of prison with dignity and defiance a week or two ago

The DNC did fail us and I'm glad people are waving signs around about it. All I get from Democrats is requests for money. I watch them vote in Trump's nominees and they want our money? They can go to hell.

Trumps behavior is sickening.
The planet deserves a happy ending to this horror story, not more suffering. Neofascism is not the future. These clowns are not inevitable.

In Vermont, an ultralocal social network is as popular as Facebook

imagine what would've happened if that woman in Coeur d'Alene Idaho who was zip tied and dragged out of a public meeting, was instead in a room full of people who stood up for her. Imagine that. If I was in that room, they would've had to zip tie me as well.

Here is the number of the Governor's office in Coeur d'Alene Idaho. You know, where police watched on helplessly as a woman was zip tied and dragged out of a public meeting. "look at that little girl" one man said. Another told her, "it will be 1000 times easier on you if you don't resist".

To maintain a vast mind while your body is enclosed in an oppressive little box is quite the feat. He's an inspiration on so many levels.
