I'm the spouse of an air traffic controller and I could not be more livid at the news that Dems might cave. I called and left voicemails for my Dem senators. If my family can hold the fucking line, so can they.

Not really sure if I can do a repost of a repost, but if it helps a few people see this who maybe wouldnโ€™t otherwise, itโ€™s worth it. ๐Ÿคž

Imagine if we did this but instead of paying people to racially profile and terrorize communities and grab mostly innocent people we did it for teachers

Had my 1st such dream right before I had my braces removed at age 15. I figured subconsciously I mustโ€™ve felt like the braces were the only things keeping my teeth in my mouth. No such excuses for subsequent sporadic teeth-falling-out dreams over the years.

After a moment of initial puzzlement, I surprised myself by getting it. So how can a person make sense out of something like that, but not โ€ฆ(waves hand) โ€ฆ *all THIS?*

Here we have a lovely wreath, the foundation of which is made of black twigs, densely packed. The lower half of the wreath is covered in dried brown moss. There are 2 little headstones, some slender black mushrooms, a few fern fronds and a skull. Simple but elegant. Oh, and thereโ€™s a sweet pinkish moth at the top of the wreath.

One of my favorite things about #canvassing at this time of year is seeing the various Halloween decorations people have put up in their yards and on their porches. I found this wreath to be understated yet still celebratory. And oh yes, if you live in #California, please vote #YesonProp50

(around an image of the No Kings logo) ITโ€™S OFFICIAL

Nearly 7 million people have attended today's peaceful protests, which makes No Kings Day the biggest single-day protest against tyranny in American history!

With more than 2,700 lawful and peaceful protests across all 50 states, No Kings Day was 14 times larger than both of Trump's presidential inaugurations (combined).

After a week of ridiculous Republican smears and Trump claiming that โ€œvery few people are going to be there,โ€ you just made history. #NoKings

Um, no. Itโ€™s not a steamy romance. Itโ€™s just steam. I find watching it to be relaxing, meditative in a way. I used to enjoy watching the smoke rising from my momโ€™s cigarettes too, when I was very little.

My protest sign, featuring Trump as a scary clown, Vance as Frankenstein, Miller as a vampire, and RFK JR as a zombie. Their faces are within the boundaries of a purple map of the US, and the caption warns, โ€œHere Be Monstersโ€ in a (sort of) creepy font.

Iโ€™m ready for #NoKings tomorrow. Look for me in #LaHabra #CA
and carrying this sign. With Halloween right around the corner, I made the regime look extra ghoulish!

This campaign needs you now Question Your Orders-Training for the CA Guard on the Duty to Disobey Unlawful Orders

If you live in California & you fear our military is being turned into the sword of fascist dictatorship, please sign my petition. If Gavin Newsom takes this up he will take it to every Governor in the country and make enough noise that our troops and generals will hear the alarm. c.org/xhZVWykFbh

I tried, twice, to enter the alt text for these little video clips, to no avail.

I wrote:
Blue skies. Bright sun. trees with wet green leaves backlit by the sun. A wooden fence darkened with age and wetness, from which tendrils of steam are rising from each soggy board.

One of my favorite things: the ethereal sight of my backyard fence steaming in the morning sun after a day and a night of rain. This is my first steaming fence of this season.

We havenโ€™t even had Kira for 3 months yet, but itโ€™s pretty much been like this since the first 3 days.

2 black dogs huddle together on a brown leather couch. The room is in its usual state of โ€œslight disarrayโ€, with blankets and  a jacket lying in view.

I never would have expected that Kira, the new dog, on the left, would so quickly become the alpha, or that Dex, with almost 6 years of being the spoiled only dog, would be totally ok with that. ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค #blackdogs

We handed out fliers for #nokings on Oct 18th. We were surprised how many young folks didnโ€™t know about it but were really excited to learn! Talking to people IRL & giving them a piece of paper works.
