Never send me another fundraising email if you cave on this … what was the point if you give in without any actual commitments. Their words are meaningless.

“Every accusation is a confession”

Reading “Letter to My Daughter” by Maya Angelou and loved this passage.

Robert Plant - with Led Zeppelin and then a solo career from the 60’s to 90’s. And he put out great albums with Allison Krauss in the 2007 and 2021 too.

If women submitting to men was a natural way of being, they would not have needed laws, religion & violence to get them to do it.

This is my dream!

Which is then justification for a police state

Reading “We can do hard things” and got to the parenting chapter, one of the hardest things.

Reading “We Can Do Hard Things” by Glennon Doyle, Amanda Doyle, Abby Wambach and there are so many a-ha’s in here.

“Fitting in is about assessing a situation and becoming who you need to be to be accepted. Belonging, on the other hand, doesn’t require us to change who we are, it requires us to be who we are. - Brene Brown in the “We can do hard things” book

Well, he was right about one thing…

If Dems fail to make Signal leak an incessant story demanding resignations/impeachment, it would be a mirror image of Benghazi, her emails, etc. In face of GOP zone-flooding, Dems cowered instead of calling bullshit; now when GOP says Signal leak is NBD, a failure to push back would be catastrophic.

Democratic leaders: What would Republicans do if a Democrat did what Hegseth did? Fucking do that.

"the Trump regime is a Cybertruck, meant to look aggressive and intimidating, a bully car, but also one sloppily made to low standards, one that falls apart as it goes, with pieces that can be yanked off by hand. It shouts that it's strong, but it's weak." @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social

Last guy that brought up “Trump Derangement Syndrome” didnt fare so well. Hope Comer has the day he voted for too!

I don’t have to agree with the Gaza protestors to defend their right to protest.

And I don’t have to want Venezuelan gang members to be here on our soil, to defend their right to due process.

Either we are a nation of laws or we are not.

And if we are not, then all is lost.

“We have far more than 87k rapes in this country every year, but each of them is invariably portrayed as an isolated incident. We have dots so close, they’re splatters melting into a stain, but hardly anyone connects them, or names that stain.” @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social
In Men Explain Things To Me

“Most women fight wars on two fronts, one for whatever the putative topic is and one simply for the right to speak, to have ideas, to be acknowledged to be in possession of facts and truth, to have value, to be a human being.” - @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social (author of Men Explain Things To Me)

This is us right now, America

First time or thousandth time, doesnt matter … it’s still shocking and wrong.

This takes my breath away…how is this happening in America

They are already shutting down programs. What part of DO NOT COMPLY IN ADVANCE do you not understand. I am furious.

This. THIS. You guys… THIS.

Randy Rainbow Skewers 'First Couple' Trump And Musk With Epic 'Wicked'-Inspired Parody Oh, this is wicked good 👏🏼

This really is wicked good!

Great men do not demand thanks for having done the right thing and done good for people.

Showing the respect and appreciation our USAID workers deserve.

Super-wealthy enslavers wrote everyday in support and defense of their “personal liberty” to enslave my ancestors.

I want to live in a world free of managing/having to deal with the feelings of cis white rich guys

@mrgeorgewallace.bsky.social was on npr this morning with Ayesha Roscoe and it was like a balm for the soul. Two good humans and a delightful chat.
