Working on transcribing hundreds of pages of text messages for my book and it is making me come to terms with just how often I use exclamation points. I had no idea I was this excited about so many things.

I got to visit my daughter and her goofy cat Winston this week. Winston has an owie so he's in a cone of shame. But he's making the most of it and using his cone to carry his favorite toy around the house. #Caturday

My hometown which overwhelming voted for Trump in 2024 (70.5%) is losing their only hospital.

Currently on holiday in Montreal and seriously considering staying here. What a ugly act of hate.

How is this still being supported?

💯 Miss the Sonics almost as much as I love the Storm 💚💛

I still don’t believe that’s not a bear.

No Kings protest - over 2,000 showed up in Edmonds!!! 🇺🇸

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work.

You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules.

Get your lies straight.

I couldn't have said it better. 10/10 👌

“Motherhood could evoke a powerful sympathy in people”

One of many phrases in this book by local author, @andreadunlop.bsky.social that has shaken me as I consider my own experience with a deceptive individual.

Highly recommend this book to all, not just those doing research for their own book.

Throw the ring already!!!

After this political dumpster fire of a week, it’s lovely to dissociate and enjoy PNB’s emergence. The only thing missing is the opportunity to boo JD Vance.

Biscuits & Gravy. Two dogs are looking out the window.

These two dogs. Always on the job!

“We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.” -FDR, 1941

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out.

Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation.

Say equity, which a just society should pursue.

Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

What the world needs now is a healing MySpace Top 8 meetup of Kindness Avengers. Panel featuring LeVar Burton, Ms. Rachel, Elyse Myers, Bindi & Robert Irwin, Tabitha Brown, Steve from Blue’s Clues, and Dolly Parton in conversation with Elmo at a library?

Kindness for our hearts! I’m just sayin’ 💚 🌎

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Engels on 'Social Murder' When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another, such injury that death results, we call that deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call this deed murder. But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or the bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live - forces them ... to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence - knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual ... Engels, The Condition of the Working Class in England (1845 [1967]), p. 126 (Panther Press)

The idea of “social murder” is super useful, and we need to get comfortable using it. Engels is the best, man - reading him feels like finally acknowledging the obvious reality everyone wants you to ignore
