Please save this number in your phone and call your representatives. It’s easy and non-confrontational to just leave a message or tell an intern your position on an issue. We can make a difference.

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

No Kings
As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

We need your help. There is a new doxxing site circulating. A domain just registered through Namecheap (on Sept 10, 2025) and hosted on Squarespace is being used to publish private personal information.

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible.

In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.

We have noticed a recent uptick in false social media posts regarding Chicago, including misleading videos, old videos reposted as new, and unfounded rumors.

Everything feels urgent, but we ask people to take an extra minute to double check information and avoid sowing confusion.

Hey everyone...LOOK OVER HERE! It's Lt. Col. Bone Spurs declaring war on an American city!!! Does his rough tough cream-puff cosplay make you forget about the EPSTEIN survivors, their lifetime of trauma & their courage to speak the truth in public?

Yeah, me neither.

Between RFK decimating the CDC, normalizing Ashli Babbitt & the umpteenth school shooting... I'm losing the will to post.

So many comments about how wrong it was for this boy to be interviewed after the shooting. But maybe need to see this. Show us bodies. Don’t let us hide behind thoughts & prayers, & “arm the teachers” BS. Make us face the gore & blood. Maybe that will make a difference, since nothing else has.

Pulling the plug on mRNA vaccine development is reckless & puts the US at a disadvantage as an #H5N1 #birdflu threat looms. Worse, it deprives cancer patients of an emerging cancer vax technology. RFK Jr's cancellation of $500 million to develop mRNA vaccines is disastrous—and stupid👇
