This dystopian future is here now.

I can’t believe how stupid everything is
I want to be all let’s talk about the economy and the higher prices from Trumps Iran War
But I can’t because the sight of the graves prepared for School Girls bombed and killed by US
Stops me cold
I’m ashamed that I’m a citizen of the USA. We’ve just become murdering terrorists. No ethics, no morals and being run with the most incompetent government in history. Can we stop this nightmare, please!!
Top U.S. military commanders have reportedly told their troops that Trump's War on Iran will "cause Armageddon and mark Jesus' return to earth."
It's yet another example of the dangerous relationship Trump has cultivated with Christian nationalists.

Anyone else having flashbacks to the Iraq War when we were (correctly) convinced there was no legal basis for invasion & a million of us marched through the streets of London to protest?
Who’d a thunk quarter of a century later they’d have a President who makes Dubya look like Neville Chamberlain?
This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

Photographer Captures Rare Blue Line On Tuesday’s ‘Blood Moon’ Eclipse
It’s almost like we didn’t think this through.
If it’s true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.
Nothing but love and respect for my captain, who isn't debasing himself and setting fire to his entire legacy.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Perfect.
Has anyone else noticed that gmail now has auto-activated it's new "I think you write badly, I will underline all of your terrible writing so I can give you suggestions that will make your emails completely soulless" feature and it appears impossible to turn off?
ABJECT...

Last night, I was notified that another person has died in ICE custody.
That’s 39 people who have died on ICE’s watch during Trump’s second term.
We cannot grow numb to this. There must be immediate oversight and accountability.
In the concentration camp universe, this is what's known as a filtration camp. A government preemptively takes a whole class of people to interrogate and detain extrajudicially in order to inflict duress on them while arbitrarily assessing their (supposed) culpability.
We asked people who lived in homeless encampments that were cleared out in city “sweeps” to write about what object was the hardest for them to lose.
“They took my baby pictures and my moms obituaries,” a man in California wrote.

NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE
then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results"
and i was like.

Americans waking up to news that Prince Andrew has been arrested for Epstein ties
New center-new performance. This dance touches to the depths of the soul. It freezes with the horror of reality. It hurts more that this horror is against the background of symbols of our greatness. Fall against greatness. Now. Our choice!?!?!?
I have never bawled my head off from watching dance before, but this had me sobbing uncontrollably.
This tribute to Renee Good & Alex Pretti dipicting #ICELawlessness is something EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN NEEDS TO SEE!
Bravo to the dancers of Hungryman Productions & choreographer Mathew Steffens!
This dance group is called the First Amendment Troop, part of Hungryman Productions led by Bryan Buckley & had 22 dancers representing the # of Days between the deaths of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti.
The music was by We Could Fly & Following the North Star by Rhiannon Giddens.

There are far more voters than ICE agents. People should plan to stay at their polling place all day. Make it a party. Meet your neighbors. Talk politics. Gather food trucks. Make it a safe place for voters who are nervous. ICE agents always back off when they are outnumbered.
You have helped me.
Inspirationally, by bravely using your painful past to teach about abusers.
You have reminded me that color can be an important part of resilience & resistance.
To be bright and sparkling in a gray world is admirable.
You helped me return to art.
I am grateful you exist.
If we are required to show a passport in order to vote, doesn’t that make passport fees an illegal poll tax?
Y'all, ICE thugs are still terrorizing people in Minneapolis and St. Paul.
They are counting on America looking away, and it's currently working. Please tell everyone you know, please reach out to people with huge followings, and ask them to help refocus our attention on the ongoing abuses.
