There are a million ways to display resistance and just because your resistance isn't the showy resistance that looks good in a post doesn't make it any less valuable. There is so much great vital work happening behind the scenes right now that most people will never see or appreciate.

There are both short-term and long-term forms of resistance and the short-term gets the attention but the long term builds a foundation from which to grow. Resist in a way that is sustainable for you where you can make a difference.

Well, I just returned from a VERY interesting #Indivisible #SantaFe (ISF) meeting. Santa Fe’s new mayor was summoned to the meeting by a #NewMexico state legislator in attendance. This led to me having to supply the meeting with an impromptu presentation on First Amendment law and why the City of Santa Fe cannot lawfully charge ISF $25,000+ for a closed streets permit for #NoKings on March 28. 1/

Hello #SantaFe #NewMexico! If you are participating in #NoKings 3 and want to know more about your First Amendment rights, I’m hosting an informal teach-in this Saturday, 3/14, 1 pm Santa Fe Brewing El Dorado Taproom. https://events.scenethink.com/first-amendment-teach-in-mar-14-2026

"What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places — and there are so many — where people have behaved magnificently, it energizes us to act, and raises at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don’t have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."

闹了个大乌龙，差点没上成街。
昨晚登记活动地点的时候按地图选的，结果活动地址差了十万八千里，不但不在地图标示的街区，甚至不在加州😅，而我直到出发了研究地址才发现！🤪
幸好隔壁不远还有另外一个活动地点, 但是活动时间不一样。我原本要参加的是下午1-3点，想着12点多提前去正好，而这边的活动是早上10点半就开始了，1点半结束。不管怎么说还是赶上了后半段。
小地方，人不多，也没有堵塞交通，只是路边举牌。不过路过车辆纷纷鸣笛表示支持，很多车里都有标牌，舞旗子的，摆手的，比V竖大拇指的各种表示，热闹得很（我也看到了一个把大拇指使劲往下栽的女士），不用站到街上也可以参加活动真是耳目一新.

I learned a new word today: patrimonialism. It means, “A system of social organization or government in which a male leader maintains authority through individuals with loyalty to him personally.”

I encountered it in a February article in the Atlantic: “One Word Describes #Trump”.

The article references a book by Hanson and Kopstein, “The Assault On The State / How The Global Attack On Modern Government Endangers Our Future”.

Guess what’s on top of my nightstand.

Theater District, Manhattan - 7th Avenue at 53rd Street

It’s wild to see a 10+ block view clear of traffic south to Times Square. The protest march is right behind me. Thousands of people are watching and joining the route from side streets.

It’s hard to shoot while carrying a spine, so I have the bare minimum from #NoKings in San Jose yesterday, but here are a few.

Attendance held steady from the last one, but the energy was higher. I can project vocally and I’ll turn the volume up to 11 when the chant leader is having trouble getting people to join in. I only had to do that once at the very start yesterday.

The makeup of the crowd was different too. There were a lot more Persians there or at least they were more noticeable because most of them were carrying the pre-1979 Sun Lion Iranian flag.

That’s important because Iranian expats are in a confusing space. Most of them have no love for the current government and have to thread the needle of protesting the war without supporting the Islamic Republic of Iran or “the fucking mullahs” as some of them might say.

There were even a few people carrying Islamic Republic of Iran flags. You wouldn’t typically see those people around the ones carrying Sun Lion flags.

The coalition is growing.

In his final days in office, Trump is going to order a flurry of pointless and hurtful executive orders and unnecessarily fire a bunch of people in the government based purely out of spite and sadism - just because he can.

His intent is to hold power until he dies, and if can't then he is going to burn as much of it down as he can, out of spite.

The US is f**** unless Dems massively win the midterms.

Vote in person so there is no question.
