I consider myself to be a pretty tough person until the zipper on my coat gets stuck. Then I will freak out and melt down like an overstimulated toddler and thrash my way out of the coat-turned-prison while my family runs for cover

This is happening in the streets of modern day America. Does this photo make you uncomfortable? Ill? Enraged? Sit with those emotions for a few minutes and decide how much more if this you can take before taking action

I'm so tired of living with this constant anxiety about when the spark will ignite. It will almost be a relief when the civil war begins and there is direction to the resistance. My heart goes out to the people in Minneapolis, stay strong, we are almost there.

Spent the weekend at camp, perfect cozy weather. The worlds gone mad but there's still beauty in it. Spent an overcast morning at Rimrock Overlook with the youngest grand, I might be getting a little too blind for that particular hike, surprised my DIL didn't have a stroke walking down with me 😁

Let's be very clear-its not the radical that that wants to shut it down. The cheeto in charge and his cronies need to shut it down to further their own agenda. Dems hands are tied by their own ethics and human decency. There is no winning here.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets in Jerusalem with a group of Republican lawmakers on an AIPAC organized trip, August 6, 2025. A group of around 70 men and women are all seen smiling broadly with Netanyahu in the middle (Kobi Gideon/ GPO).

Sometimes a photo stops you in your tracks.

Taken yesterday, Congressional Republicans sit smiling with the key architect of what major international agencies conclude is a genocide.

To answer future generations’ question: this is how it was allowed to happen.

I work for the state and have always had a 1 week in the office 3 weeks at home schedule. Til end of this quarter 🙄 Now WFH is based solely on production. But we are union, so merit based privilege is going over about as well as you'd expect. Le sigh

Currently reading Stephen Markley's "The Deluge". When the headlines in the NYT match the dystopian novel you're reading, it's kind of a mind fuck. We are doomed
