Ruby Tuesday

I almost asked "could it get any worse?" and then realized someone probably asked that same question 3 days ago.

L.A. County's first safe parking for homeless people living in RVs opens in Crenshaw Los Angeles County has opened its first safe parking location for recreational vehicles. The pilot has spaces for 14 RVs that can stay for up to six months while their owners seek permanent housing.

90,000 people were displaced because of the wildfires near LA. As many as 50% of them are living in their vehicles. We need a LOT more of these. #vehicleresidency #houseless #lafires

I live in my car because I left a bad situation back in Vermont. For some reason I thought I'd rather go back to a bad situation than continue to live in my car. But I came to my senses. Sometimes living in a vehicle really is the best choice. #NVRC #vehicleresidency #vehicleresident

My friend is caring for her ailing mother in an assisted living facility. She noticed an electrical outlet that needed to be changed. Maintenance said it was fine. A couple of days later, she told them her boyfriend said it needed to be changed. They changed it right away. #inequality #mysogyny

Why does key former Trump adviser Steve Bannon now face jail time? Steve Bannon, the right-wing media personality-turned-Trump adviser, may be heading to prison.

I wonder when Trump is going to do to Elon what he did to Steve Bannon. Can you say "saw that coming"?

This is one reason I love being in the desert.

OMG TOO FUNNY!!!😂

Don't ever give it a rest. Writing a book is quite an accomplishment. You should be proud. Shout it from the rooftops. Don't worry if people are getting tired of hearing it. If they are, those aren't your people, anyway.

This really resonates with me.

Sunset cloud formation over Quartzsite Arizona

It absolutely blows my mind that this is a #sunset cloud formation. Another of many taken in #Quartzsite #Arizona.

#vehicleresidents face so many challenges. Many are listed here. We are not going away. All we ask is for our #humanrights to exist. #vehicleresidency is not the problem, and in fact is often the solution. We want governments to stop treating us like #secondclasscitizens.

Sadly, I know what it's like. I lost my dear cousin to the MAGA movement.

Me too!

Didn’t she do a song called hands? That song was about fighting injustice. Now she hast to fight her own injustice.

Wow! Just wow!

I watched the Barbie movie the other night. Then I watched the news. Strange similarities. #womensrights #inequality

In the hospital with sepsis.

What do you do when you’re living on the road and have a medical emergency? What if you need follow up care? Most insurance companies won’t pay for telehealth if you are in a different state. These are some problems the #NVRC works to address. #vehicleresident

Dear @bsky.app, how do I get all these cat photos off my feed? I'm a dog person. Show me some dogs. Thank you.

Superstition Mountain, Apache Junction, Arizona

In all the time I've been travelling the country, I have never taken the time to hit the tourist attractions, mostly because I couldn't afford it. Today, that changed. I even bought some souvenirs.

Full moon setting in the desert.

Here's something I've only seen in the desert. This is not the sun, it's the moon setting. It only seems to happen the morning after the full moon. #moonset #desertmorning.

The Scary Truth About Lingering Wildfire Smoke - Videos from The Weather Channel The record-breaking wildfires in California, including the Palisades and Eaton fires, are unleashing toxic smoke filled with hazardous chemicals, wreaking havoc on air quality for miles around and rai...

The smoke from the wildfires got into my lungs and made me very sick. I knew this was why.

I need to this. For years I've avoided daily news, and now I just keep recting to everything that fool does. Gotta calm down and focus on me and mine and not him.

I'm so honored that you reposted my picture. That means a lot to me.

Such a beautiful photo! Where was it taken?

Quartzsite, Arizona sunset with a view of the moon and Jupiter. January, 2025.

One of my favorite things about #vehicleresidency in the #Quartzsite, #Arizona is the amazing sunrises, sunsets, and starry nights, which you can see so much better because there is little surface light pollution.

I left my home state of #Vermont to go into the #arizonadesert for the winter. It's a warmer climate so I won't freeze to death in my #carhome. Many aren't as lucky as me, they can't leave for warmer areas. #vehicleresidency
