Read news, op-eds, and analysis, not AI summaries. Create your own art (even if it's messy) or hire an artist to do it. Do your own homework. Talk to people, not chatbots. Keep your thinking and skills sharp and cherish our messy humanity. That's the new punk rock.

I just finished rereading Animal Farm, and the most notable lesson of the book is to never let the lies of self-appointed leaders overtake the truth that you have seen with your own eyes. Speak up against the lies loudly and often, lest the lies become your new reality.

“They didn’t assault.” That Trump is allowed to deny the reality we saw with our eyes on Jan 6th, that is on tape!, & just ramble on with lie after lie, is a total indictment of our failed media industry. How reporters can just stand there as he says this stuff is beyond me. Have some self respect!

Threads deleted ✅ Facebook deleted ✅ Instagram deleted ✅ WhatsApp deleted ✅ Finally off of all Meta apps and feeling so free. It’s almost as if we lived before social media and we can do it again. I refuse to be part of any platform that supports neo-nazis in any capacity.

Meta’s policy changes have allowed neo-Nazi content to flourish on Instagram, with accounts openly spreading hate, antisemitic rhetoric, and Nazi symbols while profiting from it. This unchecked extremism is spreading faster than ever. Read more: globalextremism.org/post/neo-naz...

So apparently you get put in threads jail for saying #EatTheRich …these poor lil guys are so scared, they have to censor stuff that hurts their feelings🥲

@marcelias.bsky.social I just watched this video of you claiming that there was no fraud in the 2024 election, and I’m concerned that you would make that statement without having addressed the several computer scientists and statisticians that disagree with you based on analysis of the data.

This post is unavailable.

You didn't address the anomalous number of bullet ballots that far exceed any other race, the bomb threats called into specific polling locations, the many people who had their votes completely deleted (not just for curing), or the several examples of USPS workers hiding or dumping votes.

He was saying….fuck the naysayers, the people who oppose you just for fun, the trolls, the deniers, the people who try to hold you back. Fuck the constant resistance, the politics, the lies, the bullshit. Fuck em all. Whatever you do, DO IT FOR YOU AND DON’T SPARE THEM AN EXTRA THOUGHT. (4)

In honor of his 61st birthday, I present a doodled momentary snapshot of my chaotic brain when I heard him repeating the words “Fuck em”…into the ether…to no one. From the blatant corruption of the Supreme Court to the baseless dribble of the Kardashian enterprise…Fuck Em all! (5)

He was at the end of a years long battle with brain cancer. In his final days he would sit, repeating “fuck em” over and over while staring at a blank wall. It was the last thing he ever said to me, and it was certainly an ominous scene to watch. (2)

At first, my mind wandered to all the many possibilities of what he could be referring to…the government? Politicians?? THE MAN!? but upon more reflection, I realized there was a more universal message he was trying so desperately to communicate. (3)

You are up to date.
