ICYMI, this month in @damemagazine.bsky.social I wrote about the jocular "Trump's bein' Trump!" coverage of our very sick (in every sense) president:

Why Is the Press Giving Trump’s Declining Health a Pass? - Dame Magazine

There is something physically wrong with President Donald Trump. He walks haltingly, speaks incoherently, forgets names and places and mixes up dates and statistics, making up numbers where none exist...

I went over to the QT and the responses are full of "where are the YOUNG WOMEN THEN" and my sisters in Diane Keaton Christ, can we not fight each other over whose job it is to fix what men destroyed?

The last No Kings in Chicago was like 90 percent older female protest veterans who've been derided as normie lib wine moms for the past decade so maybe we could start nagging, like, "woodworking dads" or find a way to condescend to 30-year-old men for a goddamn change.

i do think it's important to note that liberal boomer pilates grandmas have *already* been showing up in pretty huge numbers to protests for a long time (and do a lot of other non-glamorous organizing)-they're way down there on the list of demographics who need extra encouragement to get out there

WhatSaraSaid @whatsarasaid.bsky.social · 13h

protests against this government should include white Boomer grandmothers who meet for pilates class, get a pitcher of mimosas & walk together to the public space

we need people in the street who think everyone can talk their way out of a speeding ticket, they're key to winning

No brain just baseball. If it's the Mariners does the other team also get an Etsy witch? Like for fairness?

I hate profiles of conservatives who are worried that their country is changing and would welcome profiles of liberals and leftists who are afraid of same thing from the opposite direction and treated their concerns the same kind of reflexive deference

It's like they made a man from things that charm me senseless.

I started stress-drinking in the 2nd so I'll just say that Pat Murphy could get it.

Them winning would be acceptable because it's the funniest ending to our current Canada vs. US beef.

I cheered the Cubs in 2016 because the city deserved it. But god almighty I watched this team suck shit out loud for 30 years and this is perfect.

one thing that’s definitely new over the past decade or so is the number of bumper stickers and signs threatening to kill you

A friend has been distributing those kinds of whistles! Good on you!

Here's what we're gonna do. Most of us. Instead of rage-posting memes and speculating about stuff we have no way to know or control. After today, here's what we're gonna do.

We're gonna plan for our most vulnerable friends and neighbors. We're gonna take care of the people on our left, & our right.

We’re outside of the Broadview ICE facility.

It’s clearer than ever before.

What’s happening in Illinois is an unprecedented, unlawful abuse of power.
