Part II: Sorry, don’t care, plus I met one of my favorite authors at the NYC Dyke March

Sorry, don’t care, plus a kid in a Bikini Kill t-shirt said they like my blue and green buzzcut

Trump’s ICE is tearing at the fabric of our city and what makes us proud to be Americans.

All these articles about Democrats moaning over their messaging issues make me tired.

You know what's more important than messaging? ACTION.

Don't TALK about the price of eggs.

Tell people "MEET US IN THE PARK - WE'RE GIVING OUT FREE EGGS. THAT'S RIGHT - FREE EGGS FROM THE DEMOCRATS!"

Remember when Jen Psaki scoffed at the idea of the government giving people free COVID tests? That's the massive failure of the Democratic Party's mindset right there.

JUST HELP PEOPLE, YOU LOSERS. NO MATTER WHAT. AND TAKE CREDIT.

Yesterday she said it sounded "undemocratic" to fire him. THE CALLS ARE WORKING. KEEP CALLING, Y'ALL. Tell her to fire Adams NOW. 1-518-474-8390

If you’re in an institution doing any kind of DEI work, the most important thing to do right now is simply call it something else.

Finished my second new book this year: Wake Up Nat & Darcy by Kate Cochrane. Second chance/enemies to lovers, and I absolutely love sapphic sports romance 🏒. Screenshot from when my friend first told me about it last year
