Daily reminder: if any person or entity asks, exhorts, begs, or passes into law that you not harm or bully anyone, that is not oppression. That is an effort to protect the oppressed.
On the other hand, if the world makes it clear the majority find it perfectly acceptable to bully, harm, or limit your access based on your looks, your socio-economic status, your ethnicity, your physical or mental abilities, or your gender that is indeed oppression.

Biden Flips State That Trump Won Twice In New Survey Of 2024 Race https://bipartisanreport.com/2023/04/02/biden-flips-state-that-trump-won-twice-in-new-survey-of-2024-race/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
How do you do it? How do you sit and imagine a 9 year old, who went to school, who played at recess, who learned a new math equation becomes terrified. Hears loud sounds, uncertain what they are. Suddenly feels terror. Something is wrong. Something is very scary. The 9 year old wants the family that will bring safety, but that is impossible. Suddenly pain. Pain a 9 year old cannot fathom has entered and shattered the body that was just climbing the monkey bars. What is this pain? Why does this hurt so much? The child hears people but something very frightening is happening. The child wants to scream something very frightening is happening - why can't anyone hear?! The child only wants the family to come bring safety. The 9-year-old child cries in terror. A few tears is all that the child can manage. The child's body hurts so much. The child feels something fading. The child still wonders why the family he loves is not around to bring safety. The child, terrorized, body shattered, realizes this is some sort of end. A 9-year-old child cannot understand what this is, only that it is ending. So scared. What is happening?!
How can you sit with that... imagine it and sit with it ... feel the child's terror and wrestle with the shattering pain of a shattered body ... and still claim your rights to a gun matter more?

So our news media is back to talking and writing about nothing but donald trump, and I simply cannot take it anymore. After having lived through the first disastrous, deadly preaidency* the thought that there is a probability our press will help him get back into the White House shakes me to the core.
Good morning and happy Sunday, folks.
Time to start the new day but let's take it easy.
Have a pawsome day.
Love you all 💕
Woof Woof ❤️ 😘 🐶

All it will take for #Mastodon to overtake #Twitter is for organizations like the White House, news organizations, and others, to spin up their own Mastodon instances for their own official communications and continue posting as usual. And the dedicated instance addresses will be a better method of validation than a blue check.
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
