America needs extra right now.

There is literally nothing to be gained from any amount of cooperation.

Rebellions are built on hope.

You know what the thing is that pisses me off the most? The US is gradually becoming less and less reliant on oil for power. In ten years or less, that pipeline is going to be utterly useless. But you know what would probably be very handy: A water pipeline, so that the Great Lakes states could sell water to the…

My husband and I took a Lyft home from the airport protests at SFO this weekend. We were speaking with our driver about it and he asked if we could also please go to Standing Rock. He grew up there on a reservation and had been part of the protests up until he moved to California just a few months ago. I asked him…

And, you know, it’s totally possible to invest in wind energy in the exact same region, with more benefit to its residents. If there’s one thing North Dakota has more of than oil, it’s wind (also snow, but no one’s learned how to harness the power of blizzards just yet). More seriously, there are a decent number of…

These assholes are trying to spread the opposition thin. We’re ready to fight them on every front.

I can’t stand that look of awe and childlike adoration on a grown woman’s face. It’s the look every woman with one marble rolling around in her head gives her husband when he’s got two marbles rolling around. Duggard shit

I, personally, do not think that we will “win” with love. It’s going to be nasty, dirty, bloody even. I think it’s a nice, but unrealistic, sentiment. Loving the other side, IMO, will not get us anywhere. They have already proven themselves incapable of expressing empathy for others and I’m not going to exert myself…

Here I am at about 10:30 this morning in front of Marco Rubio’s Tampa office with a sign my daughter stenciled and decorated. An early count was 120 here, but it looked a bit larger before I had to leave.

I wish that is all it would take. I truly do.

These stories give me hope.

A friend who attended this protest posted similar pictures of this, and I was so touched. Glad to see this get national coverage. (And it’s a nice ray of humanity and positive news from Michigan. We could use even a little good press.)

Put your hands up
Put your hands up
Put your hands up for Detroit
I love this city

Don’t buy a fucking word

I refuse to die during the Trump administration. I will not have my last breath made ranting about the sorry state of this country under his administration. How crappy is it that you and life go your separate ways knowing that everything was worse off than when you started?

The women are leading this revolution and it makes me wanna knock over my desk, run out of the office, and take to the streets. You are a hero, Colonel Ann Wright!!

Everyone has an obligation to disobey unlawful orders and we shouldn’t forget it. I’m glad Sally Yates did the right thing; I have a feeling that is going to be a rare occurrence over the next four years.

Sessions doesn’t have an ounce of Yates’s integrity. Not a goddamn chance in hell he would have done what she did yesterday.
