Truly, we are in the Darkest Timeline. Men, get your goatees, women, get your thigh-high boots and ankle scabbards!

are you kidding?! This is Putin’s DREAM DATE PRESIDENT. Trump is dumb as hair, impulsive as hell, and he is phenomenally easy to manipulate! He has no moral compass whatsoever and he has no idea what he’s doing or how things work or what he’s even in charge of now... and he won’t ask, or listen to anyone who knows…

Well... There are factions of the Chinese government that would just love the opportunity to show of China’s strength with a small-scale engagement. They see it the same as when the world was forced to take Japan seriously after their defeat of Russia.

I kind of assumed that anyone with more than, say, $10 million that was invested somewhere read the Economist and the Wall Street Journal and other financial papers just to kind of keep an eye on their investments. Trump is a billionaire who’s entire understanding of this fortune is “It’s there, just take money from…

He’s like a fucking toddler that demands a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch and by the time it’s made he doesn’t want it anymore and has run off to eat dirt.

“If any of us had a grandpa talking like Trump is tweeting today we’d start looking into finding a nice nursing home and we all know it.”

When he’s sworn in as commander-in-chief, he’ll make clear the fullness of his plans.

Trump continues to lie. China is not devaluing its currency; it’s trying to prop it up.

So I’m just basically telling myself that things will be okay because China has as much interest in global tranquility as we do. Let’s all tell ourselves nice things.

It’d be cool if Trump himself knew what he was going to say or do before he said or did it.

The way they do is to not think about it. Think about where the greatest support for a border wall and deporting all illegals is, it’s in the middle of the country. The people who actually live on the border know both sides of the story and are opposed to the wall and breaking up families they know.

It is hard for me to comprehend how anyone can demonize refugees after hearing such stories and seeing their faces. It is possible that someone like Trump just doesn’t care to hear about people like Bana and instead focuses his attention on the ones that are responsible for horrible acts of violence. Or perhaps he…

This just shattered my heart into a million tiny pieces. How could the world fail Bana, her family and all the children trapped in these hellish conditions so terribly?

I have been trying to keep my hopes up praying, getting donations and shouting about it I cried happy tears and know the fight isn’t over. Ashagoteh to the veterans for coming in our time of need.

Hell yes, and don’t forget the veterans groups, each led by a Native American woman vet, who showed up to protect the water defenders. Now that is fucking American. Fuck these corporate, fossil fuel, fuck-the-environment bastards.

Everyone in my family is so happy to hear this. Our reservation stands with Standing Rock.

This proves that activism; especially by badass tribal members, women, queer folks, PoC, etc.; fucking works. This is amazing news and I’m elated. But: we can’t get complacent. We still have to keep fighting. Keep donating to conservation charities. Keep calling your representatives. Keep being loud. Keep up the good…

So, Austria rejected a far-right candidate and DAPL is stopped. It’s a good day! Let’s hope the results of the Italian referendum continue the pattern...and that this is a turning point after this no-good shitty year! (Louisiana senate seat; recounts and/or faithless electors, pleaseohplease!)

I am SO relieved! This whole situation has just been a nightmare of unfairness and abuse of power reminiscent of the bad old days of the civil rights movement, complete with water cannons. And when I learned that the pipeline was originally planned to go near some white town, and they got it moved because they were…

But do you actually enlighten this guy? I live in Trump Country. It’s not been my experience that rational and lively debate changes minds any more than screaming, because it’s actually pretty extraordinary to change someone’s mind. That’s usually something that only comes from lived experience, not from earnest…
