Like I need more reasons to love Letitia James. Fight to get the right person in your states AG seat. It makes a huge difference.

as LA is burning, a swath of the country is recovering from an ice storm, Alabama is preparing for up to 6” of snow and I’m praying for the TX power grid, a reminder:

we don’t need climate action just for future generations, we need it now.

the climate crisis is here, all around us

Fire-Related Mutual Aid Efforts to Support and Some Must-Reads Kindness is essential in these times, and it will continue to be.

This edition of my newsletter includes mutual aid efforts to support and uplift, preparedness resources (for us all), some must-reads, and some thoughts about how we process disaster and look after each other amid disaster. (Yes, I am on a break, but this felt important)

Trying to approach 2025 the way St. Margaret is approaching Beelzebub

Happy Year, Socks!

A lot of friends who just want 2025 to be a year of survival because the bar is that low.

It has been very effective at improving my feed!

Blessing for the pack I didn’t know I needed but obviously of course I do.

YouTube video by 60 Minutes Training AI takes heavy toll on Kenyans working for $2 an hour | 60 Minutes

I see a lot of people talk about the environmental costs of AI. I don't see as much about the human exploitation behind it.

Final call. Sending books out this week!

I keep thinking about those congresspeople kneeling in the rotunda wearing kente cloth scarves, very performative. There has been no loud, visible, unified support for Sarah McBride from the democrats. It’s a real disgrace. That is your colleague! They are bullying her in your faces. And silence!

Search turned up 93 pictures, most of actual sharks bc of Remi’s love of aquariums. But this is obviously the right choice.

Look, I can understand feeling disappointment that Sarah McBride isn’t pushing back more on Johnson’s bigoted policy.

But if you have more anger for her than you do for Johnson, Mace, the whole GOP, & the 200+ other members of her caucus that could be pushing back harder, you have weird priorities.

Search your camera roll for shark

Every vacancy left open has the opportunity to be filled by a right-wing extremist Trump judge. We need to tell Senate Democrats to confirm Biden's Judges now:

Coloring is one of my favorite ways to relax when the world is going to shit. So I made a reproductive justice coloring book! This is a digital copy but there is a hard copy you can purchase on Amazon. 🫶🏼 #reprosky #coloring meetmeatthespot.etsy.com/listing/1541...

Love this!

A good litmus tear for how informed you are about trans athletes is whether or not you previously knew that no sports governing body has ever produced a study of actual trans bodies to justify banning trans women from sports.

Tell the Senate: NO on Matt Gaetz! The law gives the president of the United States the prerogative of nominating his Cabinet--but it also gives the Senate oversight of these choices. President-elect Donald Trump has said he plans to n...

Matt Gaetz is awful.

He has been a MAGA sycophant from the beginning.

He has been under investigation regarding sex-trafficking laws during a trip to the Bahamas with paid escorts, sexual misconduct, illicit drug use & misuse of campaign funds.

Since 2018, Hallmark has made these movies:

Same! It feels much less like an insatiable void. It’s nice to actually see people I care about.

A meme using scenes from The Shining. The top panel shows Jack Nicholson's character menacingly saying, "I’m not going to hurt you," labeled "PROJECT 2025." The bottom panel shows Shelley Duvall's character holding a bat in fear, labeled "ANYONE WITH A UTERUS," saying, "STAY AWAY FROM ME!!"

The anti-abortion movement is foaming at the mouth to destroy access, armed with a decades old battle plan: ban abortion pills, defund real clinics, fund fake ones, & redefine embryos as people. They don’t need a national ban—just cruelty, a dystopian dream, and zero fucks given. bit.ly/3UXLPOr

Hello! I like it here so far, a relief from the other options. I happily deactivated my Musk account this morning. ✌️

Thank YOU for being there.

Noooo, not a second “hello how you doing” already. I just got here, I have less than 200 followers, and I’m still finishing my coffee, sir.

The worst part of ALL social media…
