Please read both lawsuits. "Reasons" are pretty big.

It depicts the Seven of Wands tarot: "In the traditional Rider-Waite tarot deck, the Seven of Wands card portrays a person wearing two different shoes, suggesting a lack of preparedness or uncertainty in their stance."

Maddow: If you don't have Bluesky yet, I recommend it. It is a social media network that doesn't make me want to stab myself in the eye with a rusty fork

Not even trying to hide it…

Was at a conference today so it's taking forever to lie awake mentally replaying every single interaction looking for mistakes, vulnerabilities, and regrets.

Pableaux Johnson, the Heart of New Orleans Hospitality, Dies at 59 (Gift Article) As a photographer, cook and writer, he united communities through shared meals, vivid storytelling and a deep love of the city’s traditions.

“Holy shit, he got a New York Times obit?”—my husband, who used to live with Pableaux and yet never cottoned onto the fact that Pableaux Johnson was so widely beloved. Sure, writers, actors, neighbors would appear for dinner, but no one drops names at Johnson’s table. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/28/d...

Nearly 800 prisoners are now helping to battle Los Angeles fires, making as little as $5.80 per day.

A tale of two justice systems.

The cover of the book Parable of the Sower.

Cannot stop thinking about how Octavia Butler wrote a book in 1993 about climate change. It opens with deadly fires in LA in 2025. In the story, a fascist President has just won office with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again."

She was a modern day Nostradamus. If only we'd listened.

People love to blather on about how we have to abandon CA when something climate-related happens as if anywhere in the world is safe. Climate disasters now happen absolutely everywhere and there is no escaping it. So.

Merry Christmas to all

I do not have any coping mechanisms for the next four years. I am all tapped out.

OMG, same! I was talking about it to a friend the other day. I tend to remember it when I fear loss in my life...

Agreed. It was a much-needed genuine, moving moment.

Universal healthcare isn’t just a pipe dream folks. Early human societies thrived by sharing resources and caring for the sick to ensure collective survival. It’s already in your code!

My pup gets that paranoid-high that makes her loopy (post dental surgery).

All I want for Christmas is TERM LIMITS for members of Congress and the Supreme Court. 🎄
