Does it feel hopeless right now? Do you feel powerless? Let me offer you the following facts:
1. Tesla is tanking so hard right now they had to parade a bunch of cars in front of the fucking White House just to try to boost sales.
2. Target and Walmart have seen sales tank so drastically in the last month they are immediately rolling back their anti DEI stances.
3. Congress has never in history seen this amount of call volume. They typically get 40-50 calls a minute. They are currently trying to field upwards of 1,600-2,000 calls every minute.
4. The Resistance has been so vocal at town halls that the GOP had to officially instruct Republican congressmen to stop doing them.
5. This administration hasn't been able to make a single tariff stick for longer than 3 days because of all the fallout.
You. Are. Powerful.
They expected you to just put your head down and roll over and do nothing. Instead you resisted. You fought back. You showed up. And you continue to show up.
You're showing up for education. For veterans. For trans folk. For women. For immigrants. For people of color. For free speech. For international allies. You're showing up for what's right and you're refusing to obey fascism in advance.
And what's more, there is no coordinated response among the elected officials, judges, and appointed GOP heads. They're floundering. All of them. They weren't expecting this. And they have no idea what to do about it.
π day blood moon.
There was light cloud and the camera seemed to be fighting me a bit, so this is short on detail; taken as the thicker clouds started to roll in; the moon was gone like 45 seconds after this shot. 300mm, 𝑓6.3, ISO 10000.
@benbrown do they have a display or camera or is it just for audio?
