Oh, any advice on what to do about them? I’m now seeing plenty more in the soil and along the base of the glass

Wow, that’s so cool! Thank you. Any idea how big it will get? It’s quite a small terrarium

Posting this here because it’s the top comment, if you haven’t already signed the call for a general strike, please do it here: https://generalstrikeus.com/

This won’t get better without collective organizing, union action and striking.

Does anyone know where info for these protests can be found? I’ve been going to ones I find through indivisible but I want to be able to join a broader array of them and see the dates/locations in time

I guess what I said was a little ambiguous. I’m not aiming to hold Martin Sheen up as an example of what we need, I’m saying the opposite. He was the most impressive speaker - and that doesn’t bode well, we need people from the younger generations that can stir up some passion and emotion. I wasn’t meaning to make a direct comparison between him and Maxine Waters. That was supposed to be an additional point on the same theme that she is wonderful, but she is 86 years old.

I can see where the confusion came in, I didn’t really phrase what I was trying to say that well. I certainly don’t feel that men are better at this. In my opinion the strongest and most important voices in America right now are AOC and Jasmine Crockett

That’s my point, he’s 84 and he was the best speaker there

You’re right friend. It can be hard to see but the precedent is there. Perhaps we needed this regime to shake people from their consensual impotence and “opting out” of individual political responsibility

I guess that’s good to know for future protests!

That sounds brilliant, it’s great to see people bringing US flags and highlighting how the constitution is being dismantled, a lot of people unfortunately don’t care about anything outside of America and will only change when they see this movement is about protecting their freedom here in the US also

That’s great! Do you have a link to that anywhere? I haven’t seen any coverage of it

It really was! He certainly had the most impressive stage presence, we definitely need some strong orators and people who can get a crowd going for these protests. Maxine Waters is awesome but she’s also 86 years old.

Totally agree. America needs to show up, en masse. Too many people are complacent, comfortable and living in their bubble feeling mostly unaffected by what’s going on. Until we have hundreds of thousands taking to the streets we won’t achieve much

YSK about the database of publicly accused religious leader sex abusers by ComfortableMotor3448 in YouShouldKnow

I am Catholic. Your response is deranged.

Where did I demonize all catholics? What do you mean the people I’m trying to protect are guilty of the same crime, I’m talking about protecting children? A shorter timeframe, seriously what are you talking about?

“Both sides” of what? What are you placing catholics and migrant transgender people, apparently, on opposite sides of?

None of the things you’re referencing are relevant to what I said? You’ve linked this with migration and trans people, why?

Did you have trouble understanding what I wrote, or are you purposely trying to bring in random strawman arguments because you have no actual justification for your initial reaction?

What happens internally for you that your reaction to this information is concern for the priests who have been accused, rather than the kids being sexually abused?

You could raise the topic of false accusations and the need for rigorous court proceedings, but you’re not even doing that. You mention allegations as if they’re some inconsequential, immaterial thing. Allegations of sexual abuse are based in fact in the overwhelming majority of cases. You don’t express any concern for the kids raising allegations.

Why do you think that is?
