"vote" is democrats version of thoughts and prayers

a reminder for all the blue state babes that now is really NOT the time to dunk on ppl who live in red states! your cute lil tweet is a slap in the face to Black ppl (the VAST majority of us live in the South, guess why 😒) and all other marginalized ppl who are stuck here!

I really wish Helena would do this. An actual MARCH! Not just a stroll around the capitol building.

Yes!!!

Oh, joy. It’s the beginning of Fuck Fireworks season. And it’s too hot to close our windows at night. Tell me again why everyone meds to be able to purchase them and gets weeks to light them off?

Fireworks are BAD FOR BIRDS and BAD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT and NO I WILL NOT STOP SHOUTING ABOUT IT 📢📢📢

I say this as a Jew and as a person firmly *not* in the "abolish the police" camp: That black and blue flag is the American version of a Nazi flag and most American cops want to be the SS. The alliance between cops and the Republicans should be on everyone's radar.

Epic shot from East Helena. The storm brought pea-sized hail and 70mph wind gusts to the city of Helena. #MTwx 📸: Stephanie Witham

The idea that we have to find a halfway point between fascism & democracy will get us killed

If our laws don't protect everyone equally, what the fvck is the point of our laws? If rights are only given to christo fascist white people, we should burn the whole fvcking country down and start over.

Hey fellow liberal/progressive Dems, if you want to maintain any semblance of our life...you're gonna have to get more aggressive. Maybe even fight. The contingent of people seeking to destroy is large and active. They fight dirty and they don't care.

Older white writers who are shocked not every new book is written by a white man are really showing their asses now.The thing they are insinuating is that books by ppl of color aren't "really" worth publishing and white men are suffering for this lack of meritocracy. 🙄

Our teachers are guides, not guards. Our schools are not fortresses of fear, but cathedrals for learning. I know it’s possible to protect our children and our schools from gun violence. But we must act now.

Montana’s Senator Steve Daines is a ghoul… #voteBlueMontana

Some of the fire fighting action on Mount Helena today.

10,000 years ago, the biomass of ALL MAMMALS on earth was less than the biomass of /just humans/ today.

I grew up in in west Texas among other places, and let me tell you there's no "grooming" quite as serious - nor as violent - as the kind intended to keep you in line on gender & sexuality. Raised with that violence, protecting gender norms becomes a personal war for each of them.
