The Harry Potter Conundrum: waiting for someone to save you when you are the one that needs to save you. Remember in the third book when Harry tells Hermione that his father is going to show up and save him and Sirius from the mementos, then it turned out to be him?

It is time to move away from Bezos! TLDR: they have apps for apple and android, and are working on a way to get the content on Kindle. If you choose to support a local independent bookstore, that bookstore gets 100% of the profits. If you don't, 1/3 goes into a profit sharing pool. #reading #kindle

Day 2 of giving the government some big ole' black... history. Today we celebrate Alice Ball - a Chemist who holds the distinction of being the first woman, AND the first African-American (male or female) to earn a Master's Degree at the Universityof Hawai'i!

I don’t care what the fuck the current government wants to say. I’m starting BLACK HISTORY MONTH with a CELEBRATION of Mae Jemison. She is the first black female astronaut and the first astronaut on Star Trek!

The most damning part - to me - is that his kids are vaccinated. Also, vaccinate your kids, and yourself. If your doctor is willing to give it to you, it’s safe.

I know I’m a big advocate for fighting back in this shitty political climate, but remember to take a break. America needs you in the midterms, and Cheeto is going to continue his flurry of oral diarrhea to make sure you tune out.

Fight back. Any way you can, any way you know how. Do not go quietly into the night, you need to fucking fight back.

The simple fact that Biden had to pardon Fauci bothers the shit out of me. So far the only high profile pardons I have been good with are the inmates on death row. All others are either wrong or done because a vengeful shithead has an ego the size of Jupiter and the mental capacity of a 3 year old.

Picture this: You’re 14, you and your friends are just vibing. Along comes your mom (or dad, whomever) and says “I think Timmy smokes, I don’t want you to be influenced by that.” Now, because of this, your mom takes away your Xbox/PS5 and tells you that Timmy can’t come around anymore. #TikTok#Biden

Happy to see the @josephrbidenjr.bsky.social Administration was able to bring TikTok back into the light! It doesn’t alleviate the ban, but 170M people get to enjoy their 3-day weekend (I know not everyone has weekends. Or even a 3-day one. But you catch my drift.) #TikTok#TikTokban#biden#trump

It angers me that Trump gets an unconditional discharge. This was done to ensure the felony conviction sticks, and also because it is impractical to have him serving time while President. It’s a calculated decision that makes the best of a bad situation. But it still makes me really angry. #felon

Fun fact: I like looking at numbers. With recent talk of shuffling territories, we’ve all seen that joke map where Canada takes over the West Coast, Minnesota, and most of the North East; this would take Canada’s population from just over 40 million to 150 million. An increase of 375%.

The USA’s refusal to adopt a national healthcare system is the perfect example of Capitalism running off the rails. I don’t think capitalism in small doses is inherently bad or evil, but like daily nutrition, it should be used in moderation with other, healthier options. #freeluigi

As 2024 draws to a close and 2025 takes its first breaths, remember to expand your horizons this year. Learn something new, fall in love, let your guard down, or simply take a chance. This year should be dictated by you, no one else.

Thanksgiving may just be an American holiday, but it is one I will always celebrate. To me, Thanksgiving is a rebuke of the incoming administration; a time when people of different cultures came together and fed each other out of human decency and kindness. Something Trump and his ilk forgot.

Trump is planning to end birthright citizenship, and to that I say - where does it end? It’s clear that if he succeeds, children whose parents aren’t citizens will be the first to go. But how far back does it go? Will I have to show “patents of nobility” to prove I belong? Am I safe as a 3rd gen?

As promised, quote 1: “We cannot take a fundamental principle of the Constitution and turn it against a citizen.” “The Federation does have enemies. We must seek them out!” “Oh yes, that’s how it starts. But the road from legitimate suspicion to rampant paranoia is much shorter than we think.”
