Living the change I want to see—Repurposing, Conserving, Living Green, Staying Healthy, Creating, speaking out, 2nd wave feminist & perpetual work in progress.

Let’s reach out to Trump’s followers with respect.  Let’s not talk about “democracy.”  “Democracy” may be our holy grail, but to others it is just a word, a concept, and in their embrace of Trump, they’ve already turned their backs on it. 

Let’s talk about right and wrong.  Let’s talk about humanity. 

Let’s talk about kindness.  Security for our world. 

Safety for our families. 

Decency.

@BlackKnight10k I'm as white as snow. I don't see him as 'the other side'. If he lives near a beach I'd invite him to a post Thanksgiving platonic picnic, where we could while a few hours away with chat in the sun.

Looks like your brain has two tracks 'my side' 'their side'. You can stay home!

[I Smoked A Predilection For Nipples @BlackKnight10k]

White people, as you prepare to gather together with your families tomorrow, use this as an opportunity to convince them to vote for Joe Biden.

I know. You don't want politics to ruin your family gathering. I get it. Here's the thing:

If Trump wins next year, I won't ever get to gather together with my family ever again because we'll all die in concentration camps.

I hope our democracy, my literal freedom, is worth more than your dinner

@LakotaMan1 I can be civil to them, I civilility is a reflection of what I am. Nothing beyond.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@americasgreat @GuntherEagleman @elonmusk To be potentially abused. Although there are days that are darker for me than these when I’d have put it exactly as you’ve put it.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@3YearLetterman @elonmusk Since empathy is indeed a real word (although maybe not in Elon’s lexicon) I fear I’ve missed a point you were attempting to make :(

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

Boycotting is one of the most effective ways to protest things you don't like. This seems especially true of bastardized twitter :)

And remember, once upon a time twitter was just of interesting fun. Hold that thought in your real world leisure activities.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

TS study your Swedish. People I know offline who asked me if I wanted to talk--I couldn't then, I'll will probably be able to soon.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

While applaud those of you who have stayed probably in order to provide the voice of reason. I can't endorse or or sanction this kind of interaction between people anymore.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

Ok herecome the sign off forever tweets. I'll delete when I get to information commons to re-activate the universty e-mail associated with this account;

@joeleberman @LindaFrum I think she's rightly concerned with opics for PMJ yet determined to have a business selling a product benefited her. I'd hate to be between THAT rock and a hard place.

No business=1950s housewife. Business=PMs wife is a drug fiend.

@Phantom2Phlyer @dlrc65 @RpsAgainstTrump I'm Canadian and not especially interested in American history and politics beyond how they effect our country and I seem to know theconstition better than this guy!

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@TabathaSouthey Oh boy. I keep trying to avoid seeing him and occasionally click to find out if he's dead yet.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@STARFORCEHH @BrianKarem Lame cliché.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@MAC_Arms @BrianKarem It looks A LOT MORE like GOP.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@LakotaMan1 I can see it. I'm wondering if there's an algorithm factor at work here. centrists and left wingers have exited en masse, if we don't see like minds more of us will be gone. I'm almost gone.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@Terry1667064 @MichaelEging @JohnLincolnusa @RpsAgainstTrump Taking the short and local view of the world I see...

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@invitinghistory @KgMirth So? I've been to Versailles. The excess is sickening and degenerate.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@KgMirth @MaryMinifie @CalltoActivism The Rococo period in Art History is considered to be degenerate.

[Melanie Blakeman @melanieblakeman]

@MaryMinifie @KgMirth @CalltoActivism I'd go further. Most of Trumps possessions are tacky :)
