It's obvious to me that a second #Trump presidency would destroy American #democracy - which is, at the moment, on shaky ground. We are in the throes of a global battle against #authoritarianism and #fascism, and each of us must actively choose the path we want for ourselves and future generations.

📌📌 I'll be posting relevant links in this ongoing Democracy Thread. >>

~~ Red Sea ~~

We cannot cross until we carry each other,
all of us refugees, all of us prophets.
No more taking turns on history’s wheel,
trying to collect old debts no-one can pay.
The sea will not open that way.

This time that country
is what we promise each other,
our rage pressed cheek to cheek
until tears flood the space between,
until there are no enemies left,
because this time no one will be left to drown
and all of us must be chosen.
This time it’s all of us or none.

The one thing that always makes me so angry whenever I think about it is the treatment of #RubyFreeman and #ShayMoss by #Trump et al.

Everything that this #CriminalEnterprise did to undermine the election was terrible, but their treatment of those two women, who were simply doing their jobs, is truly unforgivable. It just steams me 😡

On The New Abnormal, a #podcast by #TheDailyBeast, the host interviews Amanda Carpenter of United to Protect Democracy, who says, re: Trump and the fight for #democracy >>>

“Why do we feel so tired when we have to go through this again? I think it’s helpful to remind people you are tired, because if you’ve been in the anti-Trump coalition or just, you know, the sane part of #America, you’ve been at this for almost 10 years.”

Hmm, when did California lose it and start using plastic bags again at grocery stores? The pandemic? For awhile there I thought everyone was using (at the very least) beefier recycled plastic bags instead of throwaway plastic, but apparently someone lobbied someone so people are just buying more disposable plastic bags (at 10 cents a shot) in my neighborhood. 😢

(Nope... I do not go to the grocery store much, LOL).

@ai6yr Welp. That answers my question about why some stores seemed to have moved on to industrial-strength plastic bags!
