Margaret Mead: when asked what was the first sign of civilization in a given culture. The student expected Mead to tell him about a hook, a pottery or a grindstone. But Mead replied that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a thigh bone that had been broken and then healed.

Having a society that functions for everyone (not just the well-off) isn't a sign of tyranny. It's a sign that we're capable of moving beyond our most selfish inclinations to embrace a more compassionate world.

There will never be enough individual choices sufficient to counter the damage from a society that has abandoned any notion of collective responsibility.

I'm calling my right wing GOP Senator (well one of them). I know he loves to get my voice messages & appreciates the reminder that women are appreciative of losing a 50 year old right & how much we're enjoying being 2nd class citizens again. #vote

#vote 4 the best option. The one that most closely meets your vision of the future. Then, when they fall short: call & write & tell them off. I'm liberal, progressive, vegan, feminist, old woman. I've lived w/ the gop & religious BS my entire life. I'll take better; perfect isn't on the menu!

RobPalmerIRL (he/him/his) @RobPalmerIRLFolks, last night I wanted to do a thread on the Debt Celling, but I gotta do a thread on something a lot more immediate. I'm noticing here that we have the same people whom will withhold their vote because the dems and I quote "have to earn my vote."03:13 PM - May 28, 2023

In #Florida all vote by mail requests have ended. If you would still like to #VoteByMail or just want the early ballot, please take a minute to re-up your status.
I usually take my vote by mail ballot in person and drop it off. And I really like having paper proof of my vote.

Maybe a lot would change if those in power had the same healthcare, the same wages, and the same results from a default as the rest of us.
Why are they gonna get paid if they default on #USdebt ? #VoteBlue
Call your representatives!

Maybe if we if the consequence was that their lives depended on it, like our lives do, we might see some quick change.
One thing is for sure, somebody is profiting.

CA Gov Gavin Newsom: "You don't get to rewrite history in a back room.
You don't get to erase basic facts around segregation, the holocaust, or Rosa Parks' story.
The extremists in Florida and textbook companies that are colluding with them are about to be exposed."

The butterfly was once just another nocturnal moth. Now, based on DNA, scientists say that about 100 million years ago in America, some “trendsetter” moths started flying in the daytime—to get nectar from flowers (plus maybe sunbathe and preen). These avant-garde moths evolved into butterflies.

Honestly, if one of my loved ones died from #COVID especially the #Delta variant, I’d be joining up with other Floridians with a class action lawsuit, cause that mfka is guilty of NEGLIGENT HOMICIDE (at the minimum).

"It's so weird that we have one dude flat out turning Florida into a dictatorship and another who has been found liable for multiple crimes, including sexual assault, and the media's just like "Which one of them might be president?" instead of 'Let's tell you how fucked this is.'"

If anyone is in need of a medical abortion, you can go to
aidaccess.org/en/i-need-an-abortion
to get abortion pills, for free also if you're not able to pay. And they will now ship them to you even if you're not pregnant so you can have them just in case.

Joe Biden's response to Trump's CNN lie fest tonight:
"It’s simple, folks.
Do you want four more years of that?
If you don’t, pitch in to our campaign."
And I hear that he's raising a ton of money because of what CNN just let Trump do
