That’s how he knows it’s a for real thing.

I had no idea they were that exquisite!

Well, now that you mention it, that does sound intriguing.

Thanks. We were standing on the mall in front of the Capitol building, at an event to mark five years since 1/6/21.

Would it be unreasonable to establish a new rule for the review of the files that any redacted name will be assumed to be Trump?

This is at least as serious as it seems.

We don’t know when the arc of the moral universe will bend toward justice, but it’s reassuring to know there will be documentation. Also helpful to read while being stuck living through it.

I love this post and the wording “genre fluid.” I might find a way to use that soon.

A few days after 9/11, I went to a museum to see pretty things, but they didn’t resonate with me. I had to go see the jagged, ugly things. I think they helped give voice to the overwhelming pain inside me. So - I think it’s because we need a mirror of our feelings to help us articulate them.

The cruelty of this demonstrates the monstrousness and inhumanity of the people we’re dealing with. It should be enough to convince everyone these lawless thugs have no real authority.

I keep wondering who the real snowflakes are.

Last night, we sang. 1/6/26

I use my cell phone. I’m a slow adopter, so I just assume almost everybody else does, too. I mean - some clock alarms have to be turned on every day you want them to wake up! You have to get the time changes set correctly the night before. So many reasons to use the phone.

Much more comfortable for statues than for people.

Yes, because it means we can’t get to a better place without making him even more unhappy, and who knows what terror he will inflict before he’s out of power. This dynamic is deeply disturbing.

I took some to a party last week, and nobody dared try it. I hope they read about it and regret the missed opportunity.

And marches and protests don’t create change; they help spark ideas and build relationships.

He turned around and looked at me then stood up and picked up his stuff and moved.

Maybe he should try leading a different country.

I wish using the word trashy would catch on. Trump wants gold because he knows no other way to assess quality. Meanwhile he makes one gaudy trash heap after another.

I’m hoping we can also get them out of my neighborhood park soon, too. (In DC)

I toured it with a choir, and we sang in the amphitheater.

Today at coffee I said to my friend I would be glad to see this current administration go away, after learning that Hegseth and Leavitt attend a church around the corner from where we sat. People protest it. The man at the next table moved to another table to get away from me. Snowflake!

Thank you for defending us against this egregious violation.

I mean, these are beautiful, right?

So feeling this one. Doing the fast scroll gets old.
