A good thing to do today is check on a friend who hasn't said much since the election.

Don't ask if they're okay. They're probably not.

Just let them know you're thinking of them

Spread the word. And give out many virtual hugs.

If Joe wants to mess up Trump’s inauguration he should quit the day before and make Kamala president for 24 hours. All those made in China “45 & 47” hats will be useless.

This is very sad news.

Ada Lovelace Day was an excellent project supporting/highlighting women and girls in STEM.

"It is with great sadness that I must announce that Ada Lovelace Day, as an annual event and year-round project is closing. "

Someone's removed all the references to transphobia on Wikipedia's 4B movement page. 🙄

All this navel gazing in the press about why Dem’s worry even when things look promising. No mention that it is likely because we know that having the most votes doesn’t mean we win the election.

Imagine a professional sport where having the most points doesn’t mean you win the game. There is some additional chicanery where having the most points means you lose. How could you ever feel confident that you are going to win?

Imagine having more points in every game, but still losing most times.

The problem isn’t Dem’s “anxious” natures, it’s playing in a lopsided game.

GOP priorities.

there is not one good billionaire.

none.

billionaires are the enemy.

make that the beginning of your daily affirmations.

This 👇 ALL DAY LONG.

If Nazis didn't vote for Democrats, it's Democrats' fault?
If racists didn't vote for Democrats, it's Democrats' fault?
If bigots didn't vote for Democrats, it's Democrats' fault.
If misogynists didn't vote for Democrats, it's Democrats' fault?

Maybe we should be blaming the Nazis, racists, bigots and misogynists and not the Democrats? Just a thought.

If you voted for Trump, I don’t judge you for your choice of political party.

I judge you for your lack of morals, ethics, compassion and humanity.

I judge you for your support of racism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, treason and fascism.

So will others. So will history.

“In the year and a half following the #SCOTUS Dobbs decision that revoked the federal right to an #abortion, hundreds more infants died than expected in the United States, new research shows. The vast majority of those infants had congenital anomalies, or birth defects.”

The self-identitying as a "Black Nazi" lost, so whatever happens, there's at least that. It COULD have been worse.

"You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye

Teach your children well
Your father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by."
