The Senate just passed the worst Medicaid cuts in history — but we can stop them in the House! We make it easy to take action with scripts and tips.

This is an interesting thing. Looks like testimonies of people who left the MAGA movement- how they got into it and why.

Leaving a cult is really hard, so I really respect the people who are speaking from this place.

i don’t know how to explain to you people that no matter what a country’s government is like i do not and will not support the US indiscriminately bombing that country’s civilians and i don’t know why that’s a controversial take tbh

[i-need-a-doctor-run]

hey guys, i’m here to relieve you of your fear-mongering For You Page, here’s what we know:

1. this is not “world war 3”. that would be insane, unrealistic, unnecessary, and would never happen immediately off of one (albeit, awful) event like this. absolutely no country wants to go to war right now lol. anyone who makes any joke or post about “getting drafted” or “we’re all gonna die” has not done a lick of research, do not engage with it. plus, we’ve been at war with the middle east for ages, so for them, the timing of this attack is a bigger shock than the attack itself.

2. people in the US are not going to get hurt. more than likely, the worst this can get is some type of gulf war with the middle east limiting access to our resources, which still isn’t ideal. the best course of action for iran right now is to control what they can, which probably means cutting off the strait of hormuz, a strait that runs to the US (and other places) and provides it with resources like oil. (at least, that’s what i predict will happen based on the research i have done, but the resources part still stands). the US military is too advanced and too strong for an attack on US soil to be a strategic move for iran (a country with a population less than a third of the US’s) because they know that whatever they do, the US military will hit back even harder (that is apparent from one of trump’s latest social media posts… that heinous bitch 😒)

3. president trump wants you to be living in fear. that’s what his entire platform has been run on, along with lies and hypocrisy that more and more people are starting to see through. whatever happens in the future, this will be a huge turning point for a lot of individuals who may or may not care about who they voted for. but for those who did not ask for this, here’s what we can do:

stop making everything about the fear in the US and do what you can to lift up the people of iran, the people who were actually attacked, especially if this situation progresses any further. if military attacks do break out, it will most likely be on iranian soil, not the US’s, so do your best to try to be selfless, even through the fear.

please for the love of god do your own research, and keep it as unbiased as possible. news articles, reports, even historical articles, anything is better than scrolling through tiktok or tumblr and making your anxiety even worse. don’t even take what i say as fact! yes i’ve done research, but things can (and will) change, so it’s best to stay updated in whatever way you can.

spread positivity, build community, and gather information. as civilians, that is our current best course of action, and our collective greatest strengths. living in fear is feeding into what our government wants you to feel like so you’re easier to control. do not let them.

this is my own pet peeve, but stop saying “we bombed iran” or “we started a war”. WE did not do anything. donald trump did. that is not the america i associate with, nor should it be the one you associate with, either.

lastly, and i’ll say this until i die, everything is going to be okay. there will be issues, of course, but it won’t last forever, i promise. take a break from doomscrolling and get a good night’s rest. stay safe 🫶

Since there’s that huge heat wave that’s about to fuck up like 3/4 of the US, I’d like to stand on my soapbox for a second. I’m not a doctor, I’ve just lived somewhere with summer temps over 110 for most of my life.

Obviously, the best thing to do during a heat wave is STAY INDOORS. Of course, that’s not always possible.

Get a couple washcloths, or rags, or old shirts you don’t care about. Get them nice and damp. If you wanna get fancy with it, throw some essential oils on them. Who cares. The important thing is that they are WET. Next step, fold them into rectangles (so they hold the coldness longer!) and put them in their own zippy bag or an old grocery bag or whatever. Doesn’t matter, just don’t let them freeze in a clump. ANY TIME YOU LEAVE YOUR HOUSE, GRAB A FROZEN RAG. Drape it on the back of your neck. Dab yourself like a fancy Victorian lady. Do whatever helps. One of my friends keeps them in her bra. Whatever works!

Windows. They let heat in. Blackout curtains help a lot, but they’re not magic. Get a nice thick blanket (not a comforter, too heavy) or fold up some sheets. Pin or nail your blanket/sheets above your window like dorm curtains. Block that heat OUT!

HYDRATE. Everyone says it because it’s TRUE. Dehydration sucks. Heat stroke sucks more. Learn the symptoms and what to do if it happens to you or someone else. On that note…

Replenish those electrolytes! It’s gonna be hot. You’re gonna sweat a LOT. If you’re chugging water and not replenishing your electrolytes, you can actually have a heart attack. Even if you don’t have a heart attack, you can still faint (medical emergency, especially in the heat!) or best case scenario, feel like garbage. Pedialyte is nasty but it works. Sports drinks, sure whatever. Those little pouches of powder that you add? Whatever you like. If you don’t have any of those, eat something salty while you drink your water.

HEY GUYS

Who wants to help ruin Trump's birthday?

Yup you heard that right. On June 14, Trump's birthday and also flag day, Trump is planning on having a pretty big military parade to be all like "I'm such a powerful king" and in response there's going to be HUNDREDS if not THOUSANDS of protests against his regime telling him to sit his ass back down.

The link below has more information and a map of currently planned protests. There's options in every single state. Even if you can't go, share this information, and consider reaching out to organizers of local protests to see if they need any logistical help. Chances are, they'll appreciate it.

[i-need-a-doctor-run]

my theories about who’s in charge of the council:

[i-need-a-doctor-run]

reminder that "allies welcome" was once secret code for "those not out yet can still participate without putting themselves at risk", and for those who aren't out yet to comfortably exist in these spaces you have to let allies exist in those spaces too.

ICE is in Los Angeles conducting raids and arresting families and children on their way to their court dates and raiding workplaces. Trump has called the National Guard in to stop protestors and is spreading a false narrative about violence, raiding, etc. to distract from the fact that ICE is abducting children in a SANCTUARY CITY.

Do not look away, do not be silent. If you or a loved one is detained by ICE, stay silent except to ask for your lawyer. Keep your documents on you. Call legal aid foundations who are standing by.

If you are NOT in LA and want to help, you can contact rapid response networks and ask how to help or donate. Donate to ACLU, the Mexican American Legal Defense Fund (MALDEF), or the Immigrant Defense Project.

Here are some slides with good tips to share and a list of SoCal rapid response networks:

DO NOT LOOK AWAY!

And as a not so gentle reminder, if you voted for Trump or his ilk you can unkindly get the fuck off my page. You're not welcome here.
