“Digital Book Burnings in Trump's America:
Attacks on marginalised groups are likely an early indication of rising authoritarianism. A century ago, the Nazi party of Germany targeted transgender people & the scientists who were pioneers of sexual research, raiding Magnus Hirschfeld‘s Institut für Sexualwissenschaft, one of the world‘s first centres dedicated to the study and care of queer and trans people.

1) Even tho Pippin ended up with a tummy ache we had a good visit with my dad. My brothers and I call his house the dogs vacation home because they all love him and the beach. Can‘t wait for a better weather day to give Pip his first beach experience.
2) Postcards to the #ldf who is #nmp
3) Not pictured: Easy recipe for Lasagna with homemade marinara sauce.
4) Watching my lilac buds grow daily
5) Pippin loving daycare

Not much sleep over the weekend between a sick Pippin (just a tummy upset) and the time change while visiting my dad. Glad to be home, slept pretty well last night and working on getting caffeinated. You can google the postcard campaign for more info if you want to participate.
What‘s your mood today? #MondayMood
Dear Canada and Mexico (and while we're at it, the entire world),
We are so sorry that your neighbor's president and administration are having a narcissistic, idiotic, and completely chaotic breakdown.
Apologetically,
The empathetic Americans who did not vote for this #ldf.

I spent most of my time as a #longtimefed more or less in the realm of soft power. It‘s another topic I can‘t possibly do justice to in 451 characters, except to say I know whereof I speak when it comes to this area.
Pulling direct aid from the developing world, especially in the cruel and abrupt way we did so, opens up a huge space for China to swoop in. But we “need Ukraine‘s minerals” to combat China.
Then we humiliate Zelenskyy in the WH.*

After perusing all of the Ad Hominem attacks by this country's #ldf last week, I just can't do his fallacies anymore--at least for now.
Something maybe more fun? How about some allusions!?! I love learning/relearning these and hope to bring a new/not new one to you each week. 🤩

Probably #ldf's fallacy that he is best at is the ad hominem attack. The background picture in the image above is every attack #ldf has said against a person or a group. A picture literally is worth a thousand+ words ... and is horrifying.

“The attacks on central institutions of American democracy as “enemies of the people” has a horrible and horribly dangerous historical background. Trump may (or may not) be too ignorant to know of that background, but his inner circle most certainly knows of it, and intends it in full.“ 1w
He's so “great“ with the ad hominem attacks, it's time to redirect some back to him. #resist 👊🏻♥️👊🏻 1w
