In honor of Samhain / Dia de los Muertos: Enchiladas con Carne, Tomatillo and Pineapple Salsa, Roasted Acorn Squash and Broccoli. Pumpkin Fudge Torte was enjoyed for dessert. 🎃💀

Apple bread to honor Samhain. (The apples on the sidewalk were a lucky coincidence.) Blessings as we navigate our personal and collective underworlds with full faith in the light’s return. 🖤🩶🤍

These folks win #halloween.

AI is theft
Diversity promotes innovation
If you won't fix this planet, you don't deserve a new one
There is no such thing as a "self-made man"
Extremes of wealth encourage madness
Reject terror
Defy censors

HELL FOLLOWED WITH US x DEAD THINGS ARE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR

Winged Brigiid’s diverse crew, newly magical, must save the legitimate president before their world falls to fascism wrapped in a failing climate.

Lights out for humans = nice high stakes!

When her non-binary bestie is politically detained in an unmagical world, BRIGIID sprouts a surprise pair of giant wings. But when she flies 1000 miles to free the President, losing her wings and her trust, she must learn what deeper seeds of transformation a crisis hides. #DVpit #YA #CF #LGBT #DIS

Nonzero chance that there are several Air Force or Navy officers whose takeaway from this is that they cannot trust a nuclear launch order.

In honor of the Autumnal Equinox: roasted vegetables, chicken with shallots and grapes, fig & almond cake. Wishing balance and tranquility as we tip gently from more light to less. And a Joyful Rosh Hashanah to all who celebrate! 🍂 #autumnequinox #mabon #firstdayoffall

Breaking News: Eleven Democratic elected officials were arrested in New York City after demanding access to ICE’s migrant detention cells.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Oh now you’re resorting to facts.

Beautiful late-summer Sunday at one of my favorite hangs. #governorsisland #nyc

Anthony Oliveira tweet from September 2020: every single day for four years I have thought about Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt gloating that you can dismantle a democracy right in front of a liberal's face piece by piece and all they'll do is convene breakout sessions and commitee meetings til the boots are in the halls.

Reminded today of this timeless adage

How many will suffer in service of a distraction?

Watermelon Feta Salad and Lemon Zucchini Bundt Cake were the big winners at our #lammas feast. Plus ribs, corn, potatoes, green beans. 😋 Our blessed #firstharvest was a lovely beginning to Summer’s dog days and a quick nod to Fall. 🌻😎🦋
