Kelly

Thank you, Senator! It is so good to see an elected official STAND UP for their constituent(s)!!! KEEP FIGHTING!

. @stephenking.bsky.social , this made me think of the Dead Zone. If only we lived in an age where using a kid as a human shield actually ruined someone.

🤬 the Old Guard DNC. They better be paying attention if we want to save our democracy!!! (6/6)

I even like the Bulwark, which is more conservative but still anti-MAGA. They talk a lot about DEMOCRATS YOU ARE THE OPPOSITION, ACT LIKE IT!!! All of these can be found on Substack, which emails blogs and vlogs to you. I created a News folder and go through them when I have time. (5/6)

The Contrarian, which is Jen Rubin and a bunch of other pro-democracy journalists who quit WaPo and other corporate media over their obeying in advance. (4/?)

Other great independent news sources that are less troll-y but very much in the podcast/new media vein: the incomparable Heather Cox Richardson's Letters from an American. If you're not following her, what are you even doing with your life? (3/?)

And the news is hard and accurate and well-sourced, so it will actually feed people FACTS and not conspiracy theories. Their Pawnauguration live stream during the corronation was on point. Puppies and kittens instead of whats his name's pageant, and MAGA is BIG MAD about it. (2/?)

This is why I have ditched all corporate media completely. I now follow Meidas Touch, which absolutely is doing it right. It has too many troll-MAGA moments for my personal tastes, but THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO BE RELEVANT IN TODAY'S AGE. (1/?)

Joe Biden Was The Last President of the 20th Century—And the TV Era Digital and social are replacing TV as America's dominant medium—Democrats must evolve to win

Eleventy billion percent THIS. PAY ATTENTION, DEMOCRATS!!!

NGL, love the ethos and atmosphere of BlueSky, just cannot get into the Twitter-esque format. I hear something more like Insta is coming. Hopefully a format like FB as well? Please?

President Elect Musk really scored a victory killing the continuing resolution. Previews of the Musk Administration in action.

Kids' form letter to Santa filled out by me. "Dear Santa, My name is Kelly I am 57 years old I have been ☑️Naughty (I can explain) ⬜Nice For Christmas I would like: 1. A stand mixer 2. A Deadpool t-shirt 3. A Wicked t-shirt 4. A chunky purple necklace 5. A president who isn't a psychopath Thank you, Santa From Kelly"

My hotel has a box where you can leave a letter to Santa... 🎅🏿

The scales of justice with the text: '"We must make our choice. We may have democracy, or we may have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we cannot have both." -Justice Louis D. Brandeis'

The amount and speed with which so much legacy media is bending the knee and obeying in advance has reinforced my decision to stick to independent media. Y'all have lost the plot, network, cable, and print news. 🖕

In a nutshell.

I just finished this book and it was FANTASTIC. Highly recommend it. How many other books have an octopus as a POV character??? 🐙❤️

BINGO! Several times over! 🙄🤦‍♀️

You could have helped you constituents, the workers of Arizona, by voting to confirm the nomination of Lauren McFerran to the NLRB. Instead, you gave us the finger. I am so looking forward to your replacement actually serving our interests. (3/3)

Here's the email I sent to her:

Senator Synema - As you finish your term representing everyone but the Arizonans who elected you, you have proven once again why we need new representation. (2/3)

My 🤬 nightmare of a fake Democrat senator gave us the finger on her way out the door. She and Joe Manchin voted against confirming pro-labor Lauren McFerrrn to another term at the NLRB, giving 🍊🤡 the chance to nominate someone anti-labor. (1/

Did cardio today, and added lower body weights (and abs!) back into my workout. So now it's just the upper body stuff I'm not doing. #BabySteps

Hi Mom and Dad.

SOOOOOO happy!

SOOO happy!

I just realized... 😱😆💀

Since facts don't matter to Republicans, I couldn't give 💩💩 about whether it gives them leverage for the obscene pardons that ghoul will grant. They would and will spin it anyway and everyone will swallow the spin because the vast majority can't be bothered to fact check.

Living room with the tree on the right by the balcony door, lighted garland on the rail going upstairs (and Harley's head poking out on the stairs), and 5 stockings hanging on the cubbies with space for 3 more. Stockings labeled in glitter: Ray, Kelly, Ally, Drew, Carly.

5/8 stockings are up. I need to make 3 new ones for Nishant, Harley, and Parker. 🎄
