Listen, observe, create. Build networks; break silos. What do you mean when you say freedom? Art breaks chains. There's work to be done.

S/O to all the people who spent November telling us we were being hyperbolic in warning of Trump’s coup attempt because the courts would prevent it.
+1 on boycott. I'm done with Pru's coy higher standards for Hermine. Overlooked for star baker a million times. One bad bake and she's off. Are you being racist to get scandalous attention or are you just racist, Pru?
It's a travesty. I'm boycotting the final with my one TV vote. It makes a mockery when two average contestants get through to the final, and the best baker of the season goes home. @Channel4 sort it out.

This is BONKERS. The president elect, instead of aggressively condemning the party working to overthrow his election (the one he still makes noises about working with) is asking an economically paralyzed nation--people who don't have food or housing--for money to help him? GTFOH.
Here's the deal: Because President Trump refuses to concede and is delaying the transition, we have to fund it ourselves and need your help.
If you're able, chip in to help fund the Biden-Harris transition. joe.link/2UNbPwc

Be disgusted with American history. Then use that disgust to imagine and build a new world.
