Use It Or Lose It Lyrics

If you don't use it, you'll lose it

I feel myself slept away

There's no abuse, so don't confuse it

I don't want help, I just need space

If you can't feel it, you don't need it

They call it faith, I call it hate

It might be real, but I don't believe it

Am I depressed? Is it to late?

If you don't use it, you'll lose it

I feel myself slept away

There's no abuse, so don't confuse it

I don't want help, I just need space

It's so, it's so hard

To get to heaven

It's so, it's so hard

Don't make me bleed

Shine on, shine above

I don't believe it

The devil wants to know

He's teasing me

It's so, it's so hard

It's so, it's so hard

Use It Or Lose It by Vitalic, Mark Kerr

That’s because democracy needs its citizens to stay informed and participate in the processes of governance; especially exercising their duties as voters. 50% of Americans don’t vote. Which is resulting in their voting rights being limited by the evildoers in certain state legislatures.

HCR is determined to get out the message and take up oxygen. It’s now easier than ever to keep up with her perspectives and get strategies to counter the false narratives and buried stories that will enlighten. Share widely and do what you can by talking to people and calling out bullshit when you hear it!!!!

"Many people take no care of their money till they come nearly to the end of it, and others do just the same with their time."

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, poet, dramatist, novelist, and philosopher (28th August 1749-1832)

The best rationale I heard for calling in versus emails is that a person has to physically stop what they're doing to pick up the phone and listen to you - as opposed to how emails may be tallied but it's relatively passive.

Calling is scary as all hell but the people on the other end are usually super nice and appreciative of your call.

All that to say. Yes it matters and yes it makes a difference.

One holdover that's stuck with me from Trump's term in office is how few people actually call in. My congressman's office said they were BOGGLED at how many calls they had gotten on a particular issue, so I asked how many...

They replied, "Seventeen."

jamie quinn 🏳️‍⚧️ @threnody.bsky.social KOSA is moving through the senate right now, where it has significant support. but nothing's final until it's final. if your senator's a democrat, call & email. use this script. it's timed to 1:00 and it won't take long. even with enforcement moved to the FTC, this bill is too easily weaponized.

[Embedded Text Image Transcript]

My name is _ and I'm one of your constituents. I'm calling to urge you to vote NNO on KOSA - the Kids Online Safety Act. The bill's sponsors claim it will protect kids by placing a duty of care on online platforms to prevent anything that could be harmful. The power to decide what's harmful has been ceded to the FTC. FTC leadership is made by presidential appointment. Current president Lina Khan may proceed fairly, but what happens when the next Donald Trump is in the Oval Office? What if it's Trum himself? Do you trust a Trump appointee not to abuse this enforcement power? KOSA claims to protect kids, but it's poorly designed and, given time, it will absolutely and without question, harm LGBTQ children, adults, and anyone who needs information on reproductive health or abortion. KOSA author, Senator Marsha Blackburn, said she introduced KOSA in part - and I quote - "to protect minor children from the transgender in our society." The Heritage Foundation proudly said they'll apply pressure through KOSA to block information about abortion, reproductive health, & LGBTQ issues. Vote NO on KOSA.

So, yes, your voice does make a difference because if everyone else is thinking "Well, my voice doesn't matter so why bother" then you and sixteen of your online buddies can go ahead and straight-up boggle a congressman.

hello for those planning on voting for kamala harris. could y’all start emailing or calling her specifically to pressure her to stop the genocide. even if you’re a decided voter, mention you are undecided and that this is the issue you would flip on. here I’ll leave a link where you can email

if i see one more article, post, or news anchor talking about how joe biden is old, i'm putting my fist through a window. i feel like i've gone through the fucking looking glass.

this is project 2025, trump's plan for what he'll do if elected. whatever you think is in there, it's worse. watch a breakdown of the highlights here. this man wants to unravel the fabric of our democracy for good - this all aside from his vitriolic hatred of poc, his determination to start ww3, and the fact that he can't string a sentence together without telling outrageous and easily verifiable lies. his administration will start their crusade to exterminate trans people on day one, and they won't stop there.

do not talk to me about how joe biden is old, as if that could ever matter to me more than my life or the lives of my friends and family. my little sister is 14, she's trans, and i don't know what to tell her when we talk about politics, because one of these people wants her dead and the other one is old and some of you are still acting like those problems are equals.

i can't fucking stand this. i'm not hearing it this time, we are not repeating 2016. refusing to vote is not an act of protest, it is an act of complacency, and our most vulnerable will suffer for your negligence. vote like your life depends on it, because for some of us, it really fucking does.

I consider myself to be like @prideknights: a campy rainbow paladin who took an oath to uphold justice for sociopolitical scapegoats.

being knightcore doesn't mean you have to be pro-monarchy. you can just swear your undying fealty to your best friend or your crush or something

05/26/24 - Lago Vista, TX - SHRINKING DAD - And I’m not just talking about my hairline. I used to be taller than my son Timbo. From this pic, it’s clear that he’s passed me up: even when I hold in the old stomach and lose the slouch, he prevails by his hair. Oh well. As they say, aging isn’t for sissies. Although I gotta say that I’m still doing the things I’ve always done and for the most part, the only time I feel old is when I stop doing them. That works for me. My mantra these days: USE IT OR LOSE IT.
