So… I didn’t schedule for end times very well. I’m in the middle of a home renovation.

When my Dad died 10yrs ago, I sold my house and moved in to help Mom.

During 1st year of COVID, Mom had a stroke which stole her ability to walk in any sort of dependable way.

They have no intention of ceding power. Even if the lose. Even if they steal our rights.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

Remember folks saying there was no point in protesting Trump re: Palestein bc he ‘had no power’.

Guess he did have 😡

Peace Prize! 🤪

ShipperX @shipperxphile.bsky.social · 1d

The media will deny it until it becomes ‘safe’ to say it

showing solidarity with the woman who is being belittled. In my experience, when their own ego is not at play, men develop sudden deafness & blindness when a man humiliates a woman.

Even the ‘good ones’

Which is why I asked has any woman experienced male solidarity irl. I want to find one.

ShipperX @shipperxphile.bsky.social · 1d

I know it’s the myth. But I’ve yet to find a woman who has experienced it

ShipperX @shipperxphile.bsky.social · 1d

Has anyone ever noted an event where men stood up to another man when a woman is being publicly shamed by a male misogynist? In the wild? For real? Because I never have.

I did not know this previously, but apparently a U.S. President can unilaterally dismantle a law passed by congress and freeze already awarded funding for essential services and face absolutely no repercussions for it whatsoever

hell, the press will barely even remember he did it 6 months later

So basically no one in Venezuela is allowed to boat because they might be killed by a decrepit old man trying to score points.

If they find humor in it, they mean it. People actually horrified by something aren’t using it a jokes.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
