Having an old fashioned winter this year. No more room to put snow so it needs to stop now. 🥶

AGAIN: If they actually cared about the deficit they wouldn’t also be cutting trillions in taxes for the rich. They think we are all very dumb.

If a “Democrat” like Dean Phillips says anything remotely like ‘actually Elon is on to something’ at this point just turn them off. It’s been 3 weeks. If you’re too fucking stupid to see this isn’t about saving money, fighting corruption, or preventing fraud then you are clearly compromised.

This is just one of thousands of harrowing stories told about the U.S. Government abandoning Americans abroad in the USAID shutdown. This is Benghazi times a million. 1/

I don't know who needs to hear this, but President Biden is NOT in the White House any more... the three-ring shit show America is witnessing now is 100 percent the result of putting a fucking convicted felon CLOWN and his cowardly cohorts in the White House. trumpflation is UP!

This is the only thing that is keeping me sane right now. Weaving, quilting, embroidery. Keep the hands busy and the mind occupied.

This is an act of violence. This is a coup. This is a Fascist take-over.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

A time for ‘a look inward’, if ever there was one…👇 Thanks Canada, for a reminder that needs to be said, out loud! Introspection. Defined. ✨

Because they are evil, we must stand up to them. But because they are also stupid, we needn’t be afraid to.

Every year I have scans to rule out a return of pancreatic cancer. The stress can be overwhelming so I build Legos. This build looked like a cake walk but I had to walk away from it more than once. Finished this morning. I'll give it 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟 for ultimate distraction.

I do love my coffee. Maybe the upcoming hike in price will spark a revolution like the tax on tea.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

A pattern for troubled times: Row 1: put your phone down Row 2: pick up your hobby supplies Row 3: make something for at least an hour Row 4: take a photo of your make Row 5: share that photo to your timeline (with alt text) Row 6: like others' makes. Rep rows 1-6 until time for tea.
