Feeling the weight of the grim headlines? The escalating rhetoric designed to make you look like a demon to justify the boot?

What if the most powerful weapon we have is a refusal to be demons?

What if the answer is a joke?

“Gaza has taught the world, and we owe it a lasting debt of honor,” said Mahmoud Issa, commander of the Al-Qassam Brigades’ Special Unit 101, in his first message to the people of Gaza and the resistance after his release in the prisoner exchange deal. Issa’s unit had captured Israeli soldier Nissim Toledano in 1992 in an effort to secure the release of Hamas founder Sheikh Ahmad Yassin.

In the AI debate and our era of class war, I often think of the story of 'John Henry' and his competition against a steam-powered drill.

I keep thinking how we could resist a corpo-fascist state enabled by AI and I keep coming back to the fact these AI are exploitable. I feel we must be savvy.

To the 100+ new faces here: welcome. Your presence is a small data point against nihilism. It proves the whisper "why bother?" is a lie.

You don't have to save the world today. Choose one small, good thing and do it deliberately.

This is hard work. This is practice.

A #FrogBloc isn't just a wacky idea. It's a proven tactic: "dilemma action"

In Serbia, activists dressed as toy soldiers when the regime called them terrorists. In Thailand, they danced as ghosts.

It makes repression look ridiculous. It's hard to justify soldiers vs a chicken suit.

Hope is not a feeling we find. It's a discipline we practice. It's choosing to look at a daunting problem and saying, "Where can we start?" not "This is impossible."

The work begins with that single question.

We must set our mind to practicing hope when it is scarce.

The most radical thing you can do today is believe that a stranger is capable of goodness. Act on that belief. Hold a door. Listen. Assume the best before assuming the worst.

That small act is a crack in the foundation of cynicism. #RadicalOptimism

Optimism without action is a daydream. Hope is a verb.

Your mission:
1. Check your voter registration.
2. Support one local mutual aid group.
3. Have a compassionate conversation.

Let's get to work. #RadicalOptimism #MoralAbsolutism

Fascism is, at its core, a failure of empathy. The belief that some people are less than human.

Our mission is to listen. To see the inherent dignity in every single person. That one life, anywhere, matters.

They say "absolute power corrupts absolutely." My power absolved me of the things that truly corrupt: fear, greed, and insecurity.

Your power, your vote, your voice can be rooted in the same moral certainty. Not in domination, but in what is right.

A hero isn't born from tragedy, but from a choice. I help because I choose to. Because two good people in Kansas taught me it was right.

You have that same power. Your voice, your time, your compassion. Choose to use it.

This morning, Congress had the opportunity to ask Attorney General Pam Bondi anything and didn't ask a single question about NSPM-7 👍

Your greatest power isn't strength. It's your perspective as an immigrant.

"I chose this world. I see its beauty & its flaws with clear eyes."

America doesn't need a savior. It needs to remember its own promise. A promise built by immigrants.

I've seen worlds succumb to the whisper: "Why bother?" That radical nihilism is a poison. It paves the way for strongmen.

My mission is radical optimism. Not naivety. The stubborn, rigorous work of believing in our better angels, then proving it.

The government shutdown isn’t an excuse for Congress to remain silent as their own constituents are kidnapped by Israel in international waters, imprisoned, tortured, beaten, denied prescribed medication including insulin and provided inadequate food & water.

It’s cowardice.
