Agree this is insightful. But “who knew”? c’mon. Lots of us. For example, lots of women 30+ (in 2016) knew. And got shamed for “overreacting”, too.

If I had a dollar for every time I was right when I wished I was wrong, I could buy a Boston Dynamics robot to kick some sense into people.

House Republicans aren’t even in DC as the Trump Shutdown wreaks havoc on everyday people. We’re pushing vulnerable GOP representatives to call for a bipartisan deal to save healthcare. If your Member of Congress is a Republican, demand that they get back to work: act.indivisible.org/sign/funding...

Hi! A couple hours ago I was *very* surprised - but thrilled! - to find that AOC was following me on Bluesky! But sadly I think someone setup an imposter account. I am a not a New Yorker but I still stan AOC, so I wanted to make someone in the real AOC’s office aware...

I know! A close relative has struggled with addiction all his life. If he had access to this, I can imaginr how different things could be - for him, yes, but also for his son, his parents, his sister, his nieces and nephews...

Incredible. This could help so many people, if we can learn to work together.

Politics isn’t a game. It’s how we build communities... or tear them
down. And it has has real-life implications for billions of people - for every living being on earth.

You can help support a general strike action by reposting this, to help us reach 100 responses! This anonymous survey helps identify practical issues that may hold people back from striking.

The questions are kind of goofy but the early data is interesting and (so far) pretty darn actionable.

Hi! I created this survey to try and understand what’s holding people back from participating in a general strike. Working towards 100 responses! The form is encrypted and detailed data is password protected, but I am happy to share anonymized summary results.

It's the quickest way to collectively dissent. We need to organize and act before it's too late.

I am a fairly conventional person who has led a fairly conventional life. I am not important, or wealthy, or famous. Nor do I have any special skills or characteristics. But I find it impossible to sit idly by while fascism takes over my world. So I am trying to do my part via peaceful dissent.
