Every time you go in a public place and something ISN’T disgusting it’s because somebody cleaned it. Every time you feel comfortable using a public bathroom or sitting at a restaurant table or setting something on a gas station counter or playing on a playground it’s because somebody cleaned it.

Thank you to everyone who cleans the world, especially those who are underpaid and under appreciated.

i get why people don't believe in marriage as a social construct but legally it is the best and easiest way to say "this is who i trust to take care of me when i can't take care of myself" and i'm so glad gay people fought for that right bc when shit gets scary at least i know im in good hands

I can feel my precious childhood memories being paved over to form new neurons associated with hitting hunting rifle headshots in fortnite

no offence but I hate when people my age start projecting their own fears and ideas about aging and youth onto me. girl sorry but I’m young and beautiful if you think women in their late 20s onwards are worthless old hags who have run out of time that’s a personal problem

Hey

Hey Americans.

The federal government is about to get useless for at least a bit. This is a GREAT time to get involved in state level environmental orgs. That's where you're gonna be able to do the most for the next few years. Even a bit of casual volunteering can make a big difference.

I've done this off and on for years and when we go local we WIN. And friends winning feels good. This is how a lot of progressive agendas have won in this country. The whole US isn't out of this. People ARE still fighting climate change all around you.

You could be one of those people, in community with other people who are doing something.

doom and gloom "oooh everything is pointless oooh I'm so deep and edgy because I love trying to be the death of hope" people will just get blocked. I'm not talking to your crab-bucket ass.

I like this post because it makes getting involved seem positive and fun. So many of these are like 'you MUST do the hard work of stewarding your local government! I don't care if you don't like it!' And I think that's just as demoralizing as saying you can't do anything.

I think you WILL like it. If you don't, you don't have to be married to it. You can check out several places and see what sticks. Make an event out of it! Bring cookies! If we work together, we win! We have so much to look forward to!

Just off the top of my head:

You can volunteer for parties and campaigns.

You can volunteer for causes.

You can go to City Council Meetings or the local equivalent, which is an excellent way to get a feel for local politics in your area and what issues are on the front burner. This can help you figure out what volunteer opportunities make sense. If you ask good questions and make good comments in areas where you are knowledgeable, your face will become familiar to other people who care about local politics and to the local politicians. (This is how my dad ended up on a council. He was extremely concerned about unsafe building practices and corruption, which he then fought tooth and nail to within weeks of his actual death).

You can contact local and state politicians about things that matter to you.

You can also :

Run for Something

Run for Something recruits and supports talented, passionate young people who will advocate for progressive values now and for the next 30 y

Just in case any of you are confused, TikTok being banned and coming back not even 24 hours later with a giant "we thank President Trump" message is NOT a win. It's a huge red flag and a sign that this was a thousand percent planned.
