The thing to focus on (if you aren’t in Cali) is still the Epstein connection. DO NOT LET IT DIE! We need those files, put the pressure on your reps and demand the release of those files. Trump thrives in chaos like riots, don’t let him. Release the Epstein Files.

I won’t be there, unfortunately I had plans before this rally was organized. It’s worth going to! I suspect there will be a good crowd. They are asking everyone to bring signs, American Flags, and a donation for the food bank if able.

Playing Memoir β€˜44 on D-Day. This game is new in our collection but has been perfection, especially because my 11 year old is into WW2 history right now. I am forever thankful to our brave service members for their dedication to our country, during peace and war.

We are witnessing a toxic MAGA divorce. Where both Daddies are definitely going to demand you choose between the two of them. Their base is confused and J.D. Vance is the β€œcool” older brother who is collateral damage either way.

Our library has a summer reading program that is so fun. My kids love it, and so do I. It’s these kinds of programs and the completely ordinary presence of our library as a safe place for kids to hang out and pick up a book that continue to strengthen our communities #thishoilandlife #purplepolitics

My education keeps being the thing I fall back on time and time again. It’s not a waste of time or money to invest in education. It’s essential to maintaining a globally competitive workforce, a chance at equity, and our democratic republic.

Since I’m a little under the weather today, you get to meet some more of the chicken line-up: These little hens are Betty and Inez, they are besties and not near as friendly as Dorothea. However they are very good at eating (chicken friendly) kitchen scraps.

Visual timers are probably one of the best life hacks when you live in an ADHD household. Time blindness is such a struggle, but giving time a visual quantity helps my kids use it better.

After a busy weekend, and the on and off rain, the kids and I have officially declared today as Mellow Monday.

Just a crazy chicken lady with her favorite hen, meet Dorothea. She is so sweet. We have chickens because I love them and the price of eggs really matters for our family and several of our friends. We all need to be able to feed our families.

my life is gloriously boring, I’m boring and I’d like it to stay that way. This is why I care what the government gets up to. Making sure that everyone has a voice, their rights, and that the government stays in its lane preserves my ability to continue to be boring. #thishoilandlife #purplepolitics

School shootings will never cease to shake me to my core. My cousin is a student at FSU, he was not on campus today. I am so thankful that my family is whole. I am grieving with the families not as lucky as mine, and with the entire community that will live with this nightmare for years to come #fsu

When you devalue human beings and treat them as either potential economic growth, or an economic liability you have lost the plot entirely. PEOPLE are what matter. That’s why we do what we do in America. America is not a business. It is a nation of human beings.

Do you guys think that maybe happy meal toys are part of the reason millennials like souvenirs and sweet little treats?

I believe it was @reillyneill.bsky.social who put it together and kept sharing it!

I’m so glad Rochester went well and I hope you both are enjoying a well earned rest and time at home!

I don’t right now, but I can sure ask. We ended up with about 80 people at our day! I did not end up going because I got a migraine but my husband and kids did!

Trump talking about a third term is a hard pass no-thank-you-evil from me.
I’d like to still have a country.

Ellsworth’s impropriety and abuse of power has been evident for a long time. Today’s actions, and the whole history of not disciplining Ellsworth before now, are disgraceful and an insult to the public of Montana. We deserve to have ethical and honest representation.

It’s not hard to be afraid of people that are different, but like Yoda says: β€œFear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to the dark side.”
The cure is curiosity, in getting to know the people you don’t understand. Be strong enough to acknowledge all humans deserve dignity and respect.
