Tweet by Jermaine Fowler @thehumanityarchive that reads:βFYI. America has had 10 government shutdowns since 1976. No other developed democracy does this. They keep operating at last year's funding until deals are reached. But here, a shutdown stops child nutrition services and furloughs food inspectors while ICE keeps running, prisons stay full, wars keep going, debt gets collected, and Congress never misses their $174,000 salaries with complimentary gym memberships. They don't close the whole government. They close the parts that help you and keep the parts that serve power.β
The federal government is still shut down.

Portland has been lighting a pathway to nonviolent protests which reveals the absurdity of the Trump regimeβs claims of violent resistance.

Stay positive and peaceful. Draw in the unaware and undecided with how much fun we have. I bring bubbles.
(Ever notice how folks on the right rarely smile? Hard to do when you're screaming hateful words.)

Some things never change: apparently world war 2 spy training taught that the best way to get intel, especially for women, wasnβt to ask questions but to make an incorrect statement around an expert.

Yesterday, Robert Prevost asked everyone to start calling him by a different name.
And they did. No outrage or shaming over this request.
See how easy it is to honor other people's benign wishes?
