Before I went out the door today I asked the cards how today’s No Kings protests will go.

My reading: Courage in the face of opposition. Seems appropriate.

Thankfully felt well enough to make it out to this, since it was a 10 min walk. These really need to continue consistently, or otherwise are pointless

It was nice seeing some people I hadn’t in a while

Went to one of those Antifa things and all I got was unity with my community….where was the riot?! I was promised nationwide riots!!

Making my way through That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime and am finding myself liking the sound design of battles....not something I thought I'd say when beginning to watch this anime about a lil blue boi

Riley @thatkehdriley.bsky.social · 1d

Really wish we would stop doing these performative, one-off, sporadic family-friendly protests and finally go through with a general strike.
Will be more effective than any protest ever could be, and even more people could participate...like me, who has a hard time getting out because of illness 🫠

i think twitter instilled a terrible habit within us that we need to engage with accounts we dislike but you'd be shocked how blocking and not engaging is the most radical thing you can do because not giving an account engagement, just shunning it out of existence, is genuine deplatforming

You can easily block the official MAGA government accounts here. Do not engage them. Do not give them what they want.

People seem to be in agreement: Markey is fantastic, but old and needs to go. However, Moulton isn't the one to replace him and people would vote for Markey again.

$20 says he backs out to focus on his current seat by February.

Riley @thatkehdriley.bsky.social · 1d

I really, REALLY hope Seth Moulton loses his bid for Senate, and his old seat goes to the agender person running currently. That would be amazing 🥰

With how people around here are reacting to him running against Markey, it is possible - unless he backs off (like he always does).

And every single time this is said the "journalist" needs to ask "If she should be working anyway, why delay swearing her in any longer when others have been during shutdowns?"

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @aoc.bsky.social · 2d

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that.

No phones, no staff, nothing.

I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)
