This makes me unbelievably angry. Sinead stood against everything he is and is doing.

This post, and the comments on it, are gold.
What does this imply for those of us who are not Christian, and who labor under the assumption that we're protected by the First Amendment?
Women: We live in a constant state of vigilance because men pose a constant threat to us, here are literally millions of corroborating stories.
Men: What a scary time for men this is.
Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline.
I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate.
Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.

THREAD: Misinformation in the Iran/US/Israel war - 3 March
This viral video claims to show the aftermath of a reported drone attack on the US embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, tonight.
But the video was posted last week to TikTok, and shows an unrelated car accident in Riyadh.
I have one cat who is very tuned into my emotions, and because everything is so upsetting all the time, he has been following me around loudly expressing his concern. I keep explaining to him that while things are ok in our little world, people society is a real mess.
So, it was Iran? Not China? Not Venezuela? Not the radical left?
We are living inside the minute-by-minute delusions of a madman.
You can understand the Iranian regime is oppressive and murderous and also understand that this war of aggression against it is illegal and immoral and that those who will suffer the most from it are the people of Iran.

I was finally able to articulate my feelings about the BAFTAs. It has been tough watching people respond without thinking about the impacts to Black disabled people. As a lifelong disabled person, my feelings about solidarity have changed over the past few days.

I feel like I havenβt even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war
I find myself deep within this exercise like once or twice a month, maybe more.
To all my fellow ADHD/demand avoidance baddies out there (especially Black folks), this is really helpful for meβhope you benefit from it too.
Please take care of yourselves, team. You are enough. π€π€
Fuck this and everyone who helped get things to this point. Trans rights are human rightsβfull stop.
This is horrific and cruel, and seems to be designed to justify the incarceration of trans folks.
Iβm tired, and Iβm grieving, and Iβm not sure how much more fight I have left in me. For now, Iβm surviving purely out of spite and the desire to protect my loved ones, and to help as many folks as I can while I can.
I fight each and every day to kindle a tiny flame of hope in the midst of tremendous fear and despair. I dig desperately to find my own compassion and keep it from being buried in the pit of fear and despair that they want to bury us under.
I am an autistic feminist, a trans ally, and the parent of a disabled adult child. I understand well what the administration plans for folks like me and my loved ones. I wish there were more people out there who understood that the administration plans the same for them, even though they feel safe.
Iβm tired of being a canary in this proverbial coal mine. Iβm tired of trying to alert people who should be paying attention their own damn selves that we are all in tremendous danger. I understand well the possible consequences of speaking out. I also understand the consequences of not doing so.
Iβm angry at those who called me βparanoidβ and delusional when I pointed out literal Nazis marching in the streets at this time last year. To me, it was a clear harbinger and a welcome to the explicit racism, antisemitism, misogyny, and nihilism that structure and propel the current administration.
Today I find myself very angry at those people who have the luxury and privilege to avoid the news because it βdoesnβt affect themβ. Iβm angry at the people who dismissed all of the warnings and evidence presented over the last decade+ about the nightmares currently unfolding.

I was expecting this SOTU would be bizarre, but even with that expectation, this is some really weird shit.
Trump: "I can do anything I want to do to them ... I'm allowed to destroy the country."
I had the exact same feeling.
How it started, how itβs going meme with an article about the Supreme Court ruling against tariffs on the βhow it startedβ side and a screenshot of Trump saying βIβm allowed to destroy the countryβ on the βhow itβs goingβ side

I love working in a nonprofit newsroom and partnering with other local publications & organizations. I published a story about The Invisible Toll of Caregiving in this state, and 3 other newspapers (including my hometown Fort Wayne Journal Gazette!) co-ran it. mirrorindy.org/caregivers-h...
Thank you, Congresswoman!!
