I hiked it this summer, nice to see it in the fall. 🍂

Really looking forward to the Speaker of the House claiming to be unaware of the election results.

My 18yo had surgery Wednesday and I made him go vote early beforehand, and he did it without me. 🥹 He said they yelled it out for him! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Do you want a chemistry test or a poisoned apple? Had to dress a little evil since I'm testing on Halloween! Muahaha!

After not being able to order my Canadian skincare products for over a month due to confusion from the manufacturer on how to pay tariffs (cosmetics are supposed to be exempt), I finally can order them, look how much more I get taxed than my last order in January. 🫤

#THWG

Tucker, GA showed up today to say #NoKings We has a lovely time!

Huge turnout in Tucker, GA for #NoKings caused a traffic jam both ways on 285 so people could honk in solidarity!

This is a beautiful truth.

A massive storm that brought a record storm surge to Alaska was poorly forecast, and “this is one of the clearest possible examples to date where missing upper air soundings due to NWS constraints may have led to a degraded forecast.”

The government has long researched high school experiences. Then DOGE cut the effort The federal government has long surveyed high schoolers to help track how their academic choices may have influenced the course of their lives. The Trump administration put an end to that effort.

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

I for one am not at all worried that the most powerful people on earth have optimized my society and my brain to be ultra-reliant on the misery machine we keep in our pockets.

Rural Americans are staring down a 107% spike in health insurance premiums if ACA tax credits expire.

Republicans chose billionaire tax breaks over farmers, ranchers & working families.

Everyone pays the price for #TrumpsHealthCareShutdown. Tell a friend.

This is what unity looks like.

I'm fed up with so much in this world, but when I can't order my amazing skin care from small Canadian Riverstone Naturals.😭 They can't guarantee we will get it even if we pay required tariffs - GAAAAH! Currently shipping to US is paused.

My Dad and I often debate on whether it's the guns or the people. Perfect example here of how it is the access to guns that leads to these violent events. That CDC policeman would still be alive if guns had not been part of this man's mental break.

Shocked by Epstein’s birthday book? That culture was everywhere before feminism | Rebecca Solnit Feminism exposed the ubiquity of child abuse, rape, sexual harassment and domestic violence – and helped fight that culture

I wrote a thing. As someone who survived the 1970s and kept the receipts.

The real issue isn’t left vs right.

It’s not white vs black.

It’s not citizen vs immigrant.

It’s not gay vs straight.

The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

The white straight men mass shooters and masked ICE assholes outnumber the ones he's calling out, yet he just keeps spitting lies.

People are constantly asking me — what can I do? Between now and the 2026 midterm elections, here are five practical steps you can take to make a difference.

Life comes at you fast

I appreciate you highlighting this horrific attack. My friend works in that CDC building and the trauma and "what if"s this past 9 days have been terrible. Agony on top of an already horrific time being a civil servant these past 8 months.

A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasn’t much reporting on it. But I’m not finished thinking about it! 🧵

An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 “blast-proof” windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.

This is not about crime. It’s about power.

(+ distracting from the Epstein file cover-up)

Funny though that last night I heard one go off while I was asleep and my husband was dealing with it, not sure yet if it's one I cleaned already or one from a different room I hadn't made it to yet. 🫤

We replaced ours 2 years ago, got the 10-yr don't replace the battery ones. They've been going off all summer. After reading an IG post about it I bought compressed air and blew them out thoroughly because dust and humidity are the culprit.
