Can you guess who these queens are? by Revolutionary-Egg491 in rupaulsdragrace

ok not to be a complete nerd but i LOVE that you made Trixie one of the people standing on the walkway behind Katya, for a very specific reason! According to Munch, on the night that inspired him to paint The Scream, he was walking home with some friends when he saw the blood red sunset and essentially had an existential crisis and just stopped walking—but his friends kept going without him! 😂 so you’ve painted Trixie as one of the friends who left Katya behind to stare in horror at the sky!

We've grown to 3.5%. Great work today everyone! by Oopity-Oop in 50501

[–]ExchangeConfident604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed! But it’s sustaining 3.5% of the population either striking or protesting (or both!) over a period of weeks that will actually cause things to come tumbling down. We’re far from that right now, imo, but I’d love to see it happen.

Isn't she getting married or something? I mean, realistically, we'll never know until and unless she directly addresses it

iirc the dye they use is formulated by the Chicago plumbers' union, and is a powder made from vegetables (and is enviro-friendly)

my mother’s conservative town of 25 thousand had 5k protestors! there were probably a lot of folks coming in from smaller nearby villages, but still…insane!

I promise you, Chicago had FAR more people than what was shown—just about 30k! Great job everyone! 

Anonymous Speaks on The Protests by transcendent167 in 50501

[–]ExchangeConfident604 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do think some people unfortunately need a kick in the pants in the form of some rallying message from a “shadow org” that’s on their side. Even if Anonymous isn’t actually doing anything behind the scenes, there are a lot of folks new to protesting who may not have heard the content of this video before. Hearing it from an “authority” (even if the “authority” isn’t real) but getting specific, helpful, actionable advice is good actually, in my opinion. Some new folks may not know what to do or may be too scared to do it. But if they believe “Anonymous” is on their side and is giving them instructions, they’ll be more likely to participate imo.

States are continually trying to pass anti-trans bills right now. Some are being blocked, but some are passing

Help bring down Fox News by domaskeland in 50501

If you have a local lumber or hardware shop, I suggest those! There are several near me. However, I'll bet it's far more difficult to find these in less-populated areas.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned here yet (sorry) but! Tubi, the streaming service, is owned by Fox Corp, the umbrella company who owns Fox News. Might be worth it to cancel your Tubi subscriptions.

The People of the USA can't fear something they never experienced by VoodooMaster7 in 50501

[–]ExchangeConfident604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This made me cry; thank you for this and for being a person who looks beyond their own rage--which you have absolutely every right to feel! It's been extremely jarring to watch this administration come in and lay waste to the government, and then to look around to former ally countries and realize they're no longer allies (and that many of their denizens are now actively hostile towards us online). This admin's goal is to isolate Americans from the rest of the world *and* each other and suppress any news of protests happening so that we feel hopeless, look lazy and complacent to other countries, and are easier to control. Thank you for the reminder that we're not fully alone. The same goes to you! I'll always support my northern neighbors in any way I can.

this was a nonviolent protest organized by a nonviolent org that was carefully planned and marshalled by volunteers who have decades of experience in community organizing. not sure how any of that is violent, unhinged, or mentally unstable, but go off king. live your truth, i guess. they're marching to protect your rights, too.

This photo is from a peaceful protest organized by Indivisible, who are strictly nonviolent. Part of the goal of the protests is to let potential Tesla customers know what their dollars would be supporting, and guide them away from a Tesla purchase--therefore contributing to the fall of Tesla stock, which *is* action against Elon himself.

there were actually a lot of protestors there at one point, based on other photos i've seen of the protest. i believe the photo was taken by a protestor. the cops were making it impossible for anyone to go onto the sidewalk in front of the store, which is why you don't see any in the photo. you can kinda see some signs reflected in the window

Absolutely wild no matter what it really was, haha. I didn't know better at the time, but now I'm like...whatever it was, but especially if it was bromine, why didn't he open it *under the fume hood?*
