I've been sitting down with Wisconsinites to hear how Republicans' plan to gut Medicaid to help pay for tax cuts for the rich will hurt families and access to healthcare across our state. More than one million Wisconsinites depend on Medicaid. We can’t let this happen.

You're not unreasonable or "mean" for raising your standards about who is allowed access to your emotions, your time, your skill, or your engagement. Realistic trauma recovery asks us to get unapologetically selective about who & what deserves our limited bandwidth.

He can take sharpies to prison. He can share them with the Jan. 6th violent offenders who also belong there. They can all write their memoirs that will go directly into a dumpster.

I received an early Mother's Day gift today. One of my adult kids bought a carburetor for the lawn mower and installed it. Practical, useful and appreciated! Yay, Mother's Day!

The war in Gaza has killed or injured 170,000. Children are starving to death. Trump is encouraging the ethnic cleansing of 2.2 million people. Why is there no discussion in the US government about why we are spending billions of taxpayer dollars starving children in Gaza?

“There is nothing clever or funny about this image, Mr. President,” the New York State Catholic Conference said, “We just buried our beloved Pope Francis and the cardinals are about to enter a solemn conclave to elect a new successor of St. Peter. Do not mock us.”

Trump and Musk claim to be firing VA employees in the name of “efficiency,” but what they’re really doing is breaking a promise to the people who served us. I heard from VA employees and veterans in Milwaukee about what cutting 80,000 of the VA workforce would mean for our vets.

I unfriended many former "friends" on Facebook. I don't miss their holier than thou scripture posts. I stopped posting when Zuckerberg pledged his allegiance. Will they change their minds? Until then, I'm done.

Sustainable trauma recovery means getting real clear & unashamed about what we need in this moment-- whether it's encouragement, a plan, or a hug. Our needs are going to shift moment to moment & trigger to trigger. We've gotta accept & roll w/ them-- no shame.
