I had stress hives from therapy today just TALKING about getting rid of stuff and going thru papers. Tomorrow I had planned to sort thru a basket of k12 school papers with my other therapist but I’m not sure that’s wise… but NOT doing it feels like procrastinating. I’ll take advice, good and silly.

We just want to say that we are in awe of all of you. You are the ones history will remember—a resistance rising against tyranny. From the moment Trump took office, laws have been broken left and right. We shouted from the rooftops, and it took relentless effort just to have our voices heard.

All these articles about Democrats moaning over their messaging issues make me tired.

You know what's more important than messaging? ACTION.

Don't TALK about the price of eggs.

Tell people "MEET US IN THE PARK - WE'RE GIVING OUT FREE EGGS. THAT'S RIGHT - FREE EGGS FROM THE DEMOCRATS!"

Please stop believing we don’t owe each other anything. We owe each other so much! We owe each other love, equity, understanding, community, compassion, and much more. Don’t let this toxic hyper individualism cut you off from humanity. We’re all connected. We all need each other.

Please, for your own sakes, no one come here. It’s not safe.

Incidentally, 5 years ago he would have simply laughed his ass off at my obviously absurd statement, because well… let’s just say my baking has come a LONG long way. But probably not “run a home bakery” ready yet.

I suggested I could make some money by selling baked goods and watched my partner simultaneously experience every emotion known by man. Fear, hope, terror, intrigue, the desire not to hurt my feelings, the wonder whether he could say anything of value without risking castration… it was glorious.

And those of us close enough to the border would do well to see what Canadian media we can get in.

Holy mother of sunshine and rainbows. I did a wall sit for over 30 seconds. I did a side plank for 10+ seconds each. I got my heels to an inch from the floor and didn’t have to walk into downward dog to do it. They’re even closer on a squat.

Aw crap I’m about to power level aren’t I?

The Bend app just added 50 more stretches including a BUNCH of stuff that I was doing in physical therapy. I’m really excited to upgrade my mornings!

Also I just figured out how threads work here so now I’m feeling a bit silly about a previous post. PS check alt text on the photo for more details on toppings. Do we do hashtags here? #dairyFree someone tell me if I do something dumb plz.

White bowl with a green rim. A pile consisting of cilantro lime rice, black beans, shredded chicken in a red sauce as described above, crumbled corn tortilla chips, a scoop of guacamole on top, and a ring of pico de gallo around 1/3 of the outside of the pile.

Forgot lunch taco bowl for dinner. Took a bag of shredded rotisserie chicken from the freezer and simmered it with a small can of tomato sauce, a can of green chiles, dry onion & bell peppers, taco seasoning, and enough water to rinse the cans. Microwaved a bag of cilantro lime rice. Added toppings!

As I said: the choice wasn’t known accomplice to genocide vs no genocide. The choice was someone who was stuck between a rock and a hard place who has a chance at hearing our disapproval, vs someone gleefully participating and making it worse.

Good morning!
Drink some water.
Take your meds.
If you’re protesting at a state capitol today, turn off location tracking on your phone and switch to a passcode to unlock, not face recognition.
Write important numbers on your arm in Sharpie in case you lose your phone.
Don’t talk to cops. #resist

Trumpers don’t realize school choice programs are DEI and only exist within the dept of Education. Parents will have the option to pay for private school or pay fines for truancy. Homeschooling isn’t an option for everyone, and may fall under dept of ed.
