Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Listening to “American Requiem”, Beyoncé. I might not be the target audience, but right now it’s ripping my heart out.

Small things, baby steps. Made sure me and mine are fully up to date on vaccines and medical exams. Started socking away every penny possible. Stopped shopping at big box (except Costco)and Amazon. Shed subscriptions like crazy. No cable news, no WaPo, no NYT. Protest. Don’t buy, don’t subscribe.

www.ecosia.org Seems to work well enough. Enough for me to delete Google on my devices anyway. There are plenty of other options out there. Now to begin the long, painful process of changing all of my email addresses. Sigh. Why did you have to be Quisling assholes, Google ?

Watching Simpsons Episode Season 2, Episode 4, Two Cars in Every Garage and Three Eyes on Every Fish. It was funny back in the day. Now it’s a little too on the nose.

Okay, asshat Trump trolls, please stop trying to come in here and gaslight us. Nobody here is dumb enough to fall for it, except your fellow trolls.

Republicans are evil. Democrats are spineless. Now in new, economy sized buckets of awfulness. Not sure what I can do except prepare me and my family. Call and write the evil and spineless both. And hit the protest trail. Starting Wednesday in St. Paul.

Big party next weekend for besties 50th. As a patriotic American I feel it’s my duty to cough up the extra coin for a good bottle of Canadian whiskey and Mexican tequila. The bourbon can stay on the liquor store shelves. My party guests will understand.

Sigh. What’s Temu Goebbels up to now?

I’ve already been reading some truly bizarre theories about this crash in D.C. Yeah, it’s a weird one, but can we wait for a minute before we start throwing out bs?

I can’t keep up with the insanity. I get off after a standard eight hour shift and he’s released even more chaos. It’s mind breaking.

Important work being done here.

This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak. Going to be interesting to see how the administration responds

I wish we would have warned folks that things like the U.S. Air Force removing a video about the Tuskegee Airmen would happen, and that MAGA would try to erase and rewrite history. Oh wait. We did.

The absolute worst people in this country now feel secure and protected. Their violence and hate has been justified. I know I’m not saying anything we don’t already all know, but I’m still trying to beat the reality of the last three days into my brain.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS www.aclu.org/know-your-ri...

No executive order has the power or the right to tell you who you are. F*ck that noise. Surround yourself with love, and when you’re ready, get back in this fight. We need you. 🫶🏽

Apparently with all of their investigative reporting teams the Times and the Post can't figure out what the gesture is that Elon Musk made (twice). Now is the time for fearlessly independent, pro-democracy platforms. Now is the time for Democracy Docket. www.democracydocket.com/me-subscribe...

I thought I was prepared for how bad it would be right off. I was not. Literal evil is now in charge of our nation.

Finding it impossible to sleep tonight. I have a feeling there are a whole lot of sleepless nights for many of us ahead.

The media promotion of gambling is really indicative of what the powers that be are pushing. Bread and Circuses. And betting on all of it.

Please share this list FAR & WIDE! I will update as needed.

Just watched the farewell remarks from VP Harris. What we could have had versus what we’re getting is heartbreaking and enraging. An intelligent, dynamic, patriotic woman losing out to an incompetent who will sell us all out. It’s going to be a hard four years, if not longer.
