I didnβt write this to cause harmβI wrote it because harm was done. I stayed silent to protect my daughter. But sheβs grown now, and the truth deserves to be heard. This is for the children who were made to feel invisible. Iβm telling it now.

Got thoughts? I doβtoo many. So I started The Salty Sage, a Substack where I share sharp (and sarcastic) takes on politics, weird nature facts, and neurospicy musings. Think of it as Bigfootβs favorite reading materialβif he had WiFi.

Just a 40-something-year-old Xennial going to college, trying to figure out my role in the resistance. Lots of free time on my hands. Lots of talents to offer. Use me, resistance! I have pent up energy.

Screenshot of a data table from NTSB showing air accidents from 2007-2025. It shows that the number of air accidents is not higher than normal for 2025. For example, in January 2025 there were 58 incidents and in February 2025 there have been 9 so far. These figures for 2024 were 80 and 93; for 2023 89 and 81, etc. these numbers are showing a slight decline since 2007 but are fairly steady since 2017.
There have been a lot of plane crashes in the news lately, but the statistics show that itβs not an unusually high number in 2025. When there is a commercial plane crash, we are attuned to other crashes, so it appears that thereβs a pattern when thereβs not. Data from the NTSB, link in comments.

In a new lawsuit filed against Trump by state AGs, a family with a trans kid shares she died by suicide last month citing fears Trump would deny her access to gender-affirming care. "Her parents have expressed fear...that what happened to their daughter does not happen to other children."
