I am trying to figure out if legacy media lets Republicans lie without correction because they think it's good journalism or because they don't know the facts well enough to point them out.

Either way, if you value the truth and pro-democracy coverage, support Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

During Thanksgiving and holidays, people want to do food drives where they collect canned goods etc... and I really would love to offer that food banks need MONEY so if you can collect and donate MONEY please do that. They can then use those funds to purchase what's needed AT DISCOUNTS.

I've mentioned this before but it bears repeating. Don't leave FSA funds on the table at the end of the year. LOTS of places like homeless shelters etc... would love donations of FSA eligible items. For the past 2 years, I've used left over funds to shop here: fsastore.com - then donate the items.

Don’t forget to attend your local #NoKings protest, treat it like you would a hike, come prepared and plan ahead. Wear comfortable shoes because you’ll be walking or standing for long periods. Check the weather before you go and dress accordingly, bringing layers, rain gear, or sunscreen as needed.

How do you build a movement?

With days like today.

How do you weaken fear-propaganda—the power grip of authoritarians?

With days like today.

Why is the regime so scared of today?
There’s your answer.

Such a great album! We saw her in Kelowna last year and if you get the chance to see one of her shows, GO!!!!
30 years ago today, Amanda Marshall’s self-titled debut album was released. A Diamond-certified Canadian classic, it sold over a million copies in Canada and 2 million worldwide. Soulful, powerful, and timeless—Amanda’s voice lit up the '90s.

On Saturday October 18th, I’m asking you to attend the No King’s March in your local communities. We have witnessed the increasing authoritarianism and its policies in our country. We dissent.
WTAF?!?!?
On Monday, Pierre Poilievre shared his party’s petition to “end DEI” and “restore the merit principle.”

All of this! 😊
It is normal to:

Live in a home under 2,000 sf

Have a bunch of mismatching furniture and dishes

Regularly ignore the clutter that is your kitchen table

Invite people over for potluck dinners instead of always going out

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
