Still on, but no looming dates. I'll reach out this week. Thank you for the reminder!

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

The "whole pronoun thing" assholes refer to (yeah, Newsom's an asshole, even when he's OUR asshole) is simple:

Show people respect by referring to them by the name and pronouns they prefer.

That's it. Stop pretending like it's some complicated thing. It's not. You're just being a baby.

3/3

Maybe you do your best to try to default to they/them instead of something gendered. That's hard because you're overcoming decades (5 decades in my case) of practice. But you can do it. And if you slip up, that's okay.

The "pronoun thing" is fucking dead simple:

Person A: tells you what their pronouns are
Person B: refers to them by those pronouns

Sometimes you fuck up, especially when you knew Person A before they told you their pronouns. Okay.

Betty (2.5yrs) just sat with me on the couch and watched Wall-E for the first time, the whole dang thing, start to finish. My heart is so full.

Swoon. This was my dream.

Compromise w Trump regime is useless. There is no reward for cooperation, no fruitful compromise. They do not want anything save your subjugation. They want ultimate power & wealth forever. Anything they pretend to be interested in is incidental. There is no upside to anything other than resistance.

I feel this at the center of my soul.

Ugh. I'm sorry. Swift recovery.

I appreciate the runway to that joke. You are a master craftsperson.

Oh my gosh. I was just explaining this to one of my nieces & she could NOT wrap her head around it! 😂

I'm white, CIS male, born in 1973 in North Dakota. We (midwestern white males) are not a victimized group. How can you be so rich, so fortunate, and such a fucking whiny baby?

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

For me it was always Anthony Edwards.

And believe me, we've all been trying since 2015.

Ask me how excited I am about Age of Revelation Cyclops.

Hi there, I am the Starfleet badmiral in charge of holodecks functioning properly and androids not going rogue and I basically do nothing all day because work is for suckers.

More of this, please.

Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park.

It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I don’t even think they detained anyone.

Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.

You can pry my Tato from my cold, dead hands.

Folds: If we’ve been told our whole lives that we can’t spend money on the arts because they’re not important—then why was taking over the Kennedy Center and the arts the first thing they did?

It is extremely important. It’s the bedrock of self-expression.

Best served cold.

People are asking me if the six judges must be devoured in one sitting. People, no. Obviously no. You have to pace yourself. Get a good blender. A smoothy in the morning, another for dinner. Before you know it you’re done. Please, be serious minded and strategic.

This is bullshit.

Not only do ICE bounty hunters refuse to identify themselves, they won’t say where they’re taking the people they’re kidnapping.

Deliberately shuffling detainees from facility to facility so families can’t find them & they miss their chance at legal counsel.

I cannot emphasize enough how true & real this is.

In almost anywhere on the political spectrum you ID with or major issue, there’s probably a bot/troll operation to encourage your rage and vitriol.

And how/where that rage gets directed, esp understandable rage, is what they are out to influence.
