- Joined my local Dems officially 😌
- I haven’t been posting because I only had large things to say … now I don’t have much to say at all … I feel like we’re fighting so hard against something we can’t win. Part of me hopes it just takes more time than I’m used to, but I hope it will work. 🫥
- I haven’t been posting here because everything I have to say is long winded. I can’t even believe what’s happening right now.

- 😨
- Now that everyone has given up on making my books into movies it’s time to figure out how to adapt them into the weirdest possible medium…. Suggestions?
- what could we do that would be akin to the beanie babies in happy meals, but not with that company? that seemed to be quite a profit at the time! 😆
- As I used to tell my ex and so many others during Shit Show I, the walking that WH staff really should be doing is walking Trump into the psych ward at Walter Reed!
- My brain is so fried from reading all the headlines that when I saw WH I thought it was waffle House and it took me a very long time to realize this was not some waffle House joke 😭 this is exhausting!
- The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS
- I wake up everyday like “oh, that was real…”

- I literally just watched Trump‘s press secretary on live television, intentionally repeatedly calling trans women men, and I’m sure it’s just to invoke a reaction and I really hope that none of us are giving them that reaction because at this point it’s just entertaining them in some sick way.

- I completely understand this! I told myself I wasn’t gonna let it consume me, but every day I wake up to more headlines and events that I can’t believe are happening around me. 🥲 I know that it’s healthy for us to focus on something else a bit - I just don’t know how.
- Watching this on repeat how is your day going?
- I needed to see this today
- In 2025, we have to tailor these acts to a different day & age than when the book that is so popular right now was written. [Office of Strategic Services, Simple Sabotage Field Manual (Washington, D.C.: Office of Strategic Services, 1944).] I have some(not new) ideas of what that could look like.
- If just 1% of the U.S. population started consistently engaging in small acts of resistance, it would be enough to generate attention. (Being in the age of social media is a blessing.) 5-10% of the population can potentially initiate significant change. Do consistent, strategic, & relevant actions.
- It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.
- How do people get involved who do not hold any public office? Asking for a friend.👀
- We are ready to help pave a path for lower medication and healthcare costs for taxpayers journals.lww.com/fpmrs/fullte...

- I don’t know how half my message got deleted, but I’m glad you could understand what I was trying to say 😆
- I know you a messages and comments. I don’t really know where to say this, but the medication that my friend needs is not on your site. Is there a place to send medications we’d like (need) to see. 😓
- US foreign aid pause leaves future of program to fight HIV unclear. I find this terrifying.

- wait wait wait I know he’s done ride alongs before - I’m certainly not defending anything he’s done either - but can we verify this or is this some kind of … satire?
- Hey! Hi! They make braces for your door! Often we have locks at the top, deadbolts in the middle, and you can have a brace at the bottom! I love that for you!

- just to be clear: a single lifetime prisoner could generate $803k in revenue for a private prison company, with an estimated profit of $120.45k
- I didn’t take a photo, because quite honestly, I was starving and just started eating immediately. 😂 But tonight’s dinner was balsamic glazed zucchini, garlic butter tilapia, and tricolored quinoa! #DinnerGoals #NoTimeForPictures #FoodieFail #QuickAndTasty

- don’t trust that he has your best interests in mind. sure, there’s a chance that they can paint it as if that man is going to “save it” but REMEMBER what kind of people do that. 👀

- Tell me how I can solve all the problems for the working class. I’m in !
- Yeah. Brainstorm us something. Do you know how small businesses can take off now that TikTok is gone? it feels wrong to advertise on Meta after all of this…
- I wonder how I’m going to look back on this one day 😅
