People often worry they're not doing enough. Just wanted to say that if you're an artist putting it out there with maximal love and integrity, you quite likely are doing enough.

Breaking: Today is officially one of the biggest days of protest in American history.

Over 7 million Americans turned out to No Kings events to stand up against MAGA fascism.

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”?

anyway that’s why these events are important

MSNBC Grandmas in Skechers seamlessly reclaiming the frog from 4chan Nazis in about six weeks has gotta be the political upset of the century.

No Kings protest in The Woodlands, Texas (north suburban Houston). This is the first such protest to occur in the community. I overheard a number of folks telling others that they had never attended such an event before but had gotten to the point of feeling they needed to do something.

A beautiful thing to be among all these good people- like minded American people loving our country and embracing our Constitutional Democracy. I guess if were looking for a mate which im not, id surely find that person marching today. No Kings

They'll cast these rallies as "angry" but everyone there is plainly having a great time because it's fun to get together with like-minded people to engage in the oldest American tradition: telling a tyrant to eat shit
