🧵 The Next Four Years….. A Novel? I’ve been trying to figure out how to say this since last week. Thinking about the next four years conjures up a number of scenarios/wishes/hopes/fears. In trying to come up with actions while at the same time coming up with weird or strange thoughts…

Today, while the market collapsed and four soldiers who died on an exercise in Lithuania arrived at Dover, where was Donald Trump? Was he monitoring the markets? Was he there for the arrival of these heroes? Nope: he was golfing, with the Saudis

1/ The number of protests planned for tomorrow is enormous. Given what Trump has done to the economy, and everyone's collective ability to pay for household expenses/retirement I'd expect them to be huge. Find out more at handsoff2025.com

The size and traffic impact of the marches are not known; police will have “extra” officers available.

I just made my first call using @5calls.org and this is just a message of appreciation for them for helping me do something (and also to tell everyone to check them out)

I watched Trump's inauguration so you don't have to. It was....deeply unpleasant and very worrying! I broke down -- and contextualized -- the main aspects of his harrowing speech. SUBSCRIBE ✨ SUBSTACK: rachelgilmore.substack.com PATREON: patreon.com/rachelgilmore TWITCH: twitch.tv/rachel_gilmore

Interviewer: According to your resume, you’re one of the greatest fiction writers the world has ever known Me: Yes, I wrote that

Happy Festivus everyone. Always amazed this crazy episode birthed a real celebration that seems to be enjoyed by so many around the world. So may your feats be strong and your grievances few. Enjoy.

President Musk was "concerned" about losing his right to export jobs to China. Wow.

[hospital] SON: I came as soon as I heard. What happened? DAD: The oying hit me SON: What’s an oying? DAD: You are. *dies*

And another snoozer. I hate this team.

Posting this again. There are special elections in Virginia right now that need your help. Starting in February there are local and statewide elections in at least 31 states including Supreme Court justices in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Virginia and New Jersey have statewides. Let's go!

The billionaires want you all to be divided to keep the heat off of them. This nightmare will all be over on the day that working people unite and realize that’s it’s YOU vs. THEM.

Did you ever do that thing where you put a game on your Steam wishlist and then watch it go on sale year after year, event after event, sale after sale, and never buy it, and eventually it dawns on you that you never actually wanted it

One CEO gets shot and now all CEOs are scared to go back to the office. Imagine how our children feel going back to school.

Oligarchs now own: - the incoming President - the majority of the Supreme Court - half of Congress - most of legacy and social media They do not own: - most of the American people - our values - our hope for better days...for all This is our ground zero for the rebellion.

True luxury is found in the simplest moments.

I couldn’t agree more. Time to do what THEY do.

Celebrate with me.

Serious question: Why are white people so afraid of becoming a minority? Does America treat minorities badly or something?

"While it might be against the interest of ABC News to sell out its journalists, it’s very much in the interest of the Walt Disney Company to be on good terms with a president who is open about punishing his enemies and rewarding his friends."

Thank God Vanity Fair is keeping it REAL!

“Most Senate Republicans will vote to confirm all of Trump’s personnel choices. But a fluid group of four GOP no votes, depending on the nominee and added to the Democratic opposition, could block those with the most potential to cause havoc or tragedy.”

let’s get the fuck outta here, grab some coffee and visit every bookstore in the city.

If Mitch McConnell should have taught Democrats anything it's that you can actually just flat out oppose everything about a president for all four years. You definitely do not need to "hand it to them."

I just followed back every account that reposted this!

Campbell’s witty response to this homophobe makes me want to enjoy some of their delicious chicken noodle soup right now! 🍜 🏳️‍🌈

Trump is putting people in charge of government agencies who will pledge fealty to him over any fealty to the Constitution or the rule of law. This is wrong. This isn’t democracy. This is not who we are. We must resist this.

This. Is. Excellent. Thanks @chrisbhaynes.bsky.social

Bill Clinton's advice to Democrats: "You gotta talk like people talk who will make the difference in the outcome in the election. You don't have to sell out what you believe in. But you do have to meet people where they live."

Exactly. The. Opposite.

My GF just came up with a great name for the Portland #WNBA team Wish I could say I came up with this, but my GF did. She used to name things professionally. Not any longer. Here is her idea. Portland Pines They are… Tall Strong They are resilient PNW Tree Alliterative name

HOW TO TELL IF OTHER PEOPLE WANT TO HEAR MUSIC FROM YOUR SPEAKERS WHEN YOU'RE OUT IN NATURE, a thread 1. They don't.

Ugh FINE I'll show up to work "sober" to lead the department of defense. YES without "sexually assaulting" everyone, christ anything else?

Kash Patel should never head the FBI. Agreed?

"[I]f and when the Senate votes to consent to Patel’s nomination to displace the incumbent FBI director, it is similarly consenting to gross abuses of the FBI." @benjaminwittes.bsky.social on Kash Patel's nomination to be FBI director.

How do we get these accounts to come over here? I’m ready to move mountains.

Holy shit! #Michigan

Stupid Apple commercial. youtu.be/EvnJhwIwqds?... I’m not crying. You’re crying.
