Bluesky needs more reaction options than just the heart. I can’t feel good about reacting with a heart when I am so desperately sad about a little girl being deported in the middle of treatment for brain cancer, or ten democratic senators selling out democracy.

Even if he does it is worth resisting! I find all the talk of whether Trump’s power is legitimate baffling, honestly. He’s a straightforward authoritarian! The main reason to push back is all of the stuff he is going to do, not how his vote total stacks up to previous presidents.

I have an ominous feeling that the people currently saying “it’s not a Nazi salute” will soon be saying “it’s just a symbol from Hinduism.”

Cuidado, por favor.

So, how are we all spending this last day of a somewhat familiar world? I’m doing my best to keep the despair at bay, and to gather my energy for whatever’s to come. I know that building community is how we get through this, but right now I just want to isolate.
Love you all. Stay safe.
