Hadn’t started yet, so the crowd could grow.18 Oct 2025 12:01 +0000at://did:plc:r6o4ccbircwt6tbb7zhgquzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3m3hqiay5522chttps://bsky.app/profile/plumedae.bsky.social/post/3lswc2iqhhs2eThe Senate passed the Murder Budget on the day the prez opened our first new concentration camp.

Tired, but worth it! Felt almost festive: had the vibe of diverse people coming together to form a supportive community. Also, it was Sikh National / Baisakhi Day, so there was a march on Constitution Ave promoting a Sikh homeland called Khalistan.06 Apr 2025 16:25 +0000at://did:plc:r6o4ccbircwt6tbb7zhgquzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3lm5ud3jy322ahttps://bsky.app/profile/plumedae.bsky.social/post/3ljt6m5v6rs2uGood turnout with high energy for #StandupforScience in Boston. Sharing two fun signs: an addition to the periodic table and a case for investing in parasite research. The crowd was younger & more diverse than the 50501 rallies & included calls for our leading universities & hospitals to speak up.07 Mar 2025 23:40 +0000at://did:plc:r6o4ccbircwt6tbb7zhgquzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3ljt6m5v6rs2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/plumedae.bsky.social/post/3limzjegx3k2sI spent 30 yrs in nonprofit conservation orgs & worked with EPA & all the natural resource agencies. Federal staff are dedicated, valuable experts & partners, who don’t deserve the cruelty inflicted by this administration. For them & all the targeted communities, we need to fight the bastards.20 Feb 2025 19:27 +0000at://did:plc:r6o4ccbircwt6tbb7zhgquzu/app.bsky.feed.post/3limzjegx3k2s
