In an era of normalized cruelty, resistance also means being uncommonly kind and witnessing the wonderful. 🦋

Totally. I’d love for them to get some new graphic designers or work with Swiftie artists.

If you’re looking, my fave unofficial merch is from an indie artist Foolery Co! Highly recommend. I’ve loved everything I’ve gotten from her.

No one wants to build a better world with you if you ridicule and dehumanize them in this one.

The vitriol directed at individual fans of the most popular female artist in the world is not a good look for us.

Do better or we’re doing the work of the far right for them.

A must read! Many excellent points made, here’s one I found myself nodding to:

“Given the horrific state of the world right now, it would do us all some good to see each other as people first and foremost, regardless of what entertainers we enjoy.”

@clairewillett

honestly the best marketing scheme in history is men successfully getting away with calling women the "more emotional" gender for like, EONS, because they've successfully rebranded anger as Not An Emotion

So happy she owns her art & soul!
*and* we contain multitudes…

Tbh devastated about Rep TV. There are so few things to look forward to in our current world & I thought we were much closer to that.

Love seeing all the people who care. Big cities are amazing, but this bravery is what makes my heart burst.

So do we get reimbursed for poster supplies or…? Just asking since it’s supposedly a “paid” gig 👀 #handsoff #freedomofspeech

Cory Booker as he breaks Strom Thurmond's speaking record: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people are more powerful."

Sen. Booker just broke the record for the longest floor speech in Senate history—a record set by Strom Thurmond trying to block the Civil Rights Act. The irony ain’t lost on us. From fighting against justice to fighting for it. This is what courage & being on the right side of history looks like!

Someone, and I don't recall who, said "AI art made me believe in the idea of the soul, by showing me what art looked like without one."

And I fully stand with the person who, when asked about AI 'books,' said "Why would I want to read what nobody wanted to write?"

I wonder how many signal messages are being sent today by our highest ranking government officials directing actions taken in our names, with our money, that we’ll never read, never be able to FOIA request, and that they’ll say “never occurred,” all while those actions play out on the nightly news.

Make no mistake: I'm in the Montana House because I believe that's where I can do the most good.

States are THE front line. They are where heinous policies are first tested & fought against. And when the federal gov't goes rogue, state legislatures are a critical line of defense for our communities
