It's Kat Again

Here's a little concept I put together in case you need something to carry around at any "Independence Day" gatherings you happen to be at this week.

I'm probably more thrilled than most people about Dick Van Dyke still being with us, but everyone needs to stop reminding the universe of the date.
Remember what happened when we all went overboard for Betty White's 100?
You want another Betty White? This is how we get Betty Whites.

Thank you, and I'm glad you made it out too.
I def suspect the same dx for my ex. It's such a surreal, confusing, sad experience to see someone become so wholly not themselves so quickly based on what is so clearly not reality.

I didn't really ever anticipate speaking publicly about this experience but ...

Last year I got divorced from my husband of less than 2 years bc he went down an AI rabbit hole & now thinks he's a cosmic lynchpin and I was a threat to his "purpose."

Ask me anything, I guess?

Last year I got divorced from my husband of less than 2 years because in the time since we married, he went down this AI rabbit hole and now thinks he's some sort of cosmic lynchpin & I'm a threat to his "purpose". I left when HIS friends started reaching out to warn me I might not be safe there.

For years, a house on my commute flew Trump flags, always fresh & increasingly rage-baity. After the Zelenskyy disaster, the newest flag disappeared.

I personally consider the boycott a success because it was a baby practice action for people who have never done that before. People got on board! They got to feel what it was like! It was easy! And when they get asked to do something next, they’ll have an experience to build off of.

A reminder for these times.

With the economy sliding toward recession, mass layoffs underway, and a growing geopolitical crisis, now seems like a terrible time for both the president and vice president to be on vacation — just weeks into the job.

It's important to remember that sometimes people DO leave a cult and they need to be supported.

I’m over red & blue states. I want a green state; a place that provides fresh, safe food & water for all, invests in public spaces and nature, and nurtures art & education. A state where growth is prized and people aren’t fighting each other, but lifting each other up. How do we get that state?

that Krasnov thing explains what happened today

My Senator is a traitor.

DEMOCRATS WAKE UP AND FIGHT

I am so goddamn mad. A friend who’s been FISHING BODIES OUT OF THE POTOMAC appears to be in the Trump purges today.
