Mom. Wife, happily married. No DM’s. Preschool teacher. Cat herder. Love to read, crochet, felt, dad jokes, puns, D&D, board games, my family genealogy. No longer “vote blue no matter who” we need progressives and to stand up and fight

Im subbing in a preschool class today where a student’s first day was Wednesday. Hard enough to have a sub your first few days of school. Then come to find out her dad was taken by immigration the same day when he went to his appt. She’s inconsolable and keeps asking when her mom is coming back.

Yes. I peeked over on threads. Apparently it’s a hoax because the victims names have been blacked out

Remember when the Democratic Party party turned on David Hogg for suggesting we should primary the types of senators who would do shit like fold in half at the worst possible time, resulting in millions of Americans getting fucked over a barrel?

Please. Let’s not pretend that “with “means that he was giving her financial advice or college tips. He was assaulting her just the same.

“Hours at my house with him” the orange one wasn’t comforting the victim or interviewing her. He didn’t just know about the victims, he was assaulting them as well. Let’s not pretend otherwise.

He probably would have. I agree.

Epstein calling Trump an obedient dog was not on my 2025 bingo card.

This. ☝🏼”vote blue no matter who” and ignoring the progressives is why we are in this mess. Let’s not pretend that the Dems are more than barely left of center if that. Condemning genocide is a low bar and she didn’t meet it.

Oh thank you! He’s fun. You should try sometime. Stabbing wool to make things can be cathartic. Here are some more dolls, friends and sets I’ve made. The kids like them.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory Senate Democrats have validated our worst fears about a party unwilling to meet the moment

"I am tired of losing and worse, I am tired of expecting to lose. We need Democrats who will use their positions of power not to constantly capitulate, compromise, and cave, but to fight-- not to say the word ‘fight’ because it’s the popular thing to do, but to actually do it and mean it."

What was it that @kamalaharris.com said about the guardians of democracy? Oh ya, they keep capitulating.

My political hot take is that US voters should be able to recall elected representatives via petition - at any time.
No more hiding behind election terms.

I had a weeklong sub gig last week. This was a gift from a student. “Miss Tomi put it in your purse to go home”. I was wearing a multicolored sweater with orange stripes. I have curly hair.

No time at all. @democrats.senate.gov keep fighting with both hands tied behind their backs. When are the @democrats.org going to understand that the GOP doesn’t play by the rules. They keep showing us who they are and the Dems keep closing their eyes.

Khanna: You know, someone said to me, “Well, this backbencher from the House is calling for Schumer to step down.”

I said, “The point is the backbenchers need to come to the front.” Those of us in the back — we need to move to the front. And a new generation of leadership needs to emerge.”

This. It’s time. No more “blue no matter who” bullshit. And now is the time to start bringing forward progressive alternatives with grass root support in time for the mid terms

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city.

I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

We’ve eaten dinner, I’ve taken my vitamins, had my tea, in my pj’s. We’ve watched a movie. I look at my husband and say “what time is it? I think I’m ready for bed” 6:30. CHAT IT WAS ONLY 6:30

I’m an old lady complete with cat lady mug
