#This is America

Looking at trump's picks for his cabinet:

I am so tired and disappointed in humanity.

Good job America. You have brought in a convicted criminal, a man who has been impeached twice, a man who will cause even worse inflation for America, a liar, and a rapist.

A man who's going to deport 20 million Americans aka ethnic cleansing. He's going to stop gender affirming care and treat queer people like they are parasites. He's going to take the right of abortion away from women. And the Supreme Court and Senate will be under his control, meaning he can get away with almost everything.

I hope you are happy America. Enjoy fascism.

"dont put shit on the floor" does the rent we pay every month not include the floor too, mother? When god sings with his creations, will the floor not be a part of the choir?

what a miserable day.

reminding myself the world is not fundamentally changed. we have elected our own downfall, but there are birds outside, and my little niece is learning to walk, and I need to go grocery shopping.

(people had fulfilling lives during the fall of the roman empire. I'm reading books from the 1930's, the last time fascism almost consumed us. I am reminding myself of the people of the world right now living under unjust regimes. I am looking to minorities in america, past and present, for tips on thriving with a boot on your neck. I am reaching out to the half of the country who is mourning with me today, reminding myself there is good, there are helpers, we are still here.)

in the future there will be protests, bad news, fights (jesus christ, thanksgiving is still ahead). for now I am just trying to remember how to live. in 2016 I completely shut down and retreated from everyone. I allowed myself to be tricked into thinking I was alone. I don't want to do that again. (I don't want to do any of this again.)

this is how you live through tragedies - any way you can.

America definitely took its mask off this Tuesday, That’s no question! But the Failure of the DNC to get Joe Biden out of the race or hold open primary elections cannot be ignored! 20-25 million voters left out by Biden’s late drop out and Kamala’s end of race right wing drift are all unacceptable! We raised more money than ever and still lost to a fucking fascist!

The removal of the DNC leadership including Jaime Harrison, Keisha Lance Bottoms, and Jason Rea should be swift and the very least they can do.

Climate Change + Cops = Environmental Racism

We are witnessing a state-created moral panic backlash against calls to defund the police that rivals anything we talk about in similar terms and will have similarly dire consequences for the population. https://www.curbed.com/2023/06/atlanta-cop-city-design-architecture-tactical-village.html
