This year I’m focusing on helping food pantries and shelters. Crafter, writer, exerciser, maybe an exorciser, history nerd.

Saying hi to my blue peeps! I’ve managed to become allergic to my phone so I can’t type much. You are in my blue brains though :)

“You are a public guide & teacher, Joe, & are under  heavy responsibility to men, young & old; if you teach your people—as you teach me—to hide their opinions when they believe their flag is being abused & dishonored, lest the utterance do them & a publisher a damage, how do you answer for it to your conscience?” Mark Twain to Joe Twichell

My #knitting is on hold for an undefined period of time. Eczema on the hands is shockingly debilitating. Knit and crochet one for me!

Using Ace of Base for a gas medication commercial is a real kick in the balls to Gen X.

That was my initial thought, but I also feel like it’s more dangerous now perhaps.

Ofelia Torres, teen who fought to have her father released from ICE custody, dies from rare cancer Ofelia Torres, 16, died on Friday from Stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer, her father's lawyer confirmed.

A child dying of cancer spent her final days fighting to free her wrongfully detained father from ICE custody.
 
This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer.
 
Not one dime for this cruelty.

If the #metoo movement started for the first time today, would it take off like it did in 2017?

In the first few minutes of the Filthy Rich doc on Epstein a quote from Trump is shown. He talks about what a great guy Epstein is and “he likes young girls as much as I do.” It would be a shame if that started circulating everywhere.

I’ll admit this project isn’t 100% altruistic. I’m also hoping to bust up my yarn stash. Again.

I find it hard to shake the feeling that the Olympics is being run by 47, Putin, and their lacked. Not letting a Ukrainian showcase war dead on a helmet is unspeakable to me. I won’t watch the Olympics again until this gets addressed.

So the surge in Minnesota is ending a day after news was published that giant warehouses are being set up as jails. Does this seem weird? Anyone?

Are a Medicaid recipient in Ohio? I’d like to write an informed statement to one of our gubernatorial candidates about work requirements for Medicaid. Can you reach out to me if you’re interested in talking about this?

Dear @amyactonoh.bsky.social as a doctor I can’t believe you are in favor of work requirements for Medicaid. This is a part of the “big beautiful bill” that was among the most egregious. I can’t understand how this can be your stance :/

Look at that. He left with all his children. He didn’t leave a single one behind to be trafficked. 💪
