Sometimes a change in location is what you need

too nice to stay in and paint so I am out and paint.

I’ve said it once I’ll say it again. We need Olivia Pope

I think Americans have a hard time accepting technological advances because of how abusive and cruel our systems are. Like, I see how beneficial technology and the advancement of other countries. I’m supportive of these changes but my only ever worry is “ ehhhh but idk I see that going bad “

I just scrolled past a video of a lady with her SEVEN homika vacuums lined up trying to explain to me how good they are. 1. I had one it was not great. 2. You have seven and I’m supposed to believe it’s great? Why do you have so many. Is it because they break after 4 months ? I hate it here

I love when a business regularly changes its exterior artist work. Like, it’s just a cute way to keep things fresh and also employ artist to do what they do best.

Texting is just a personal message board. Honestly no one should need to respond in any time frame. If you reallllly need me you can call 🤷🏻‍♀️

We Olivia Pope s7e17 when she admits to b613 and makes that speech to her colleagues about them being the villains

I feel like there is no where in the world I really belong. No land that I can call home. It’s a strange feeling.

If you are from Northern Ireland, the EU considers that you can claim your country of nationality as Ireland. Even if you consider yourself British from NI you can still, technically, sign [as Irish] & the EU can’t complain & we can ban conversion therapy! Top ho!

Building community feels hard but in practice it’s so easy.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

I think if someone can’t afford a formal education for one reason or another and your degree holding response is “ why do you need an institutions approval “ Understand the privilege you hold being able to say that from where you stand.

Endless calls and protest that lead to nothing is maddening. Like, what are the calls really doing ? Like, they know we don’t want this. WHAT IS THE FUCKING PLAN like really that’s all we have wanted is transparency wtf how hard is that

I'm proud to announce that Erin In The Morning has been nominated for the GLAAD Media Award in Independent Journalism! This is a recognition of the hard work my team and I put in every day to get you the news that matters. Thank you so much for your unending support. We will keep each other safe.

Exhibit 132412352521 of "we told you this would happen" Trans sports bans make it more likely that cis girls will be abused by child predators.

It’s 2024 if I mention the state of the world to you the fuck shit going on and you smile and Bob I’m assuming to voted for trump 🤷🏻‍♀️

The alarm in my building went off and I treated it like a drill for the end of times and well. Yeah I’m definitely not making it far

Thread: To celebrate Valentine’s Day, here’s works about love by Irish artists. Intriguingly, such images are relatively rare in the work of major Irish artists! Here’s a work by William Mulready, I particularly like! Please note that although labels may be applied - there are no ‘adult’ images!

Re watching Scandal because I want some entertainment relief but want to stay focused. 🤓

I made a beef stew, zaatar olive oil rolls 2 plain 2 with honey drizzle, and rice for dinner and I made enough to freeze and have left overrrrs. Idk who this version of me is but she is welcome to stay.

Just a baby being a baby

wait, saying “ pretty please “ when asking for a payment extension DOESNT work?!

anarchist calisthenics however small be ungovernable 💋

If you have strong pattern recognition history / learning history is both your bffr and the artist of your nightmares

He doesn’t hunt for the news only catnip filled mice. What a life ✨

Knowing my free will has been a blessing and a curse my whole life 😂 definitely more a blessing tho

big time same

Resisting the demons of catastrophe this morning by grabbing a cup of coffee from my like minded local spot / watering hole. ☕️ Catching up with my neighbors because holding it together is so much easier and makes us stronger. ✨

This is one of my dreams…

This lady has probably never met a bruja irl. lol good luck with that life of misfortune💖

Checking in on Kash Patel’s confirmation hearing:

The best advice I’ve had for my community that feels helpless is to just focus on building up the small things. Sometimes feeding 2-3 unhoused folks around you or helping a struggling neighbor with their groceries or a mom with a fussy baby. That can be the change that ripples out to bigger things 💖

On day one Trump's EO said we were harmful to kids. On day two, it said we were dishonorable and disloyal. On day three, it said we were unAmerican. Transgender people have been a part of this country for centuries. We are not going anywhere. Do not comply with these EOs, they are not law.

Not my beat, but Trump just issued an executive order to potentially deport non-citizens attending school/university who are against atrocities committed in Gaza by Israel. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Essentially it’s fruit of the same tree. They’re still using ableism and applying it to trans people. Anyone who defies “normalcy” is considered disabled by their society whether they have a disability or not.

Honestly, I’m still hung up on the worm. The man has a WORM IN HIS BRAIN. I fear we aren’t taking the worm seriously enough.

Second Degree Aquarius Moon - by Jennie Allen Ledoux. Acrylic paint on canvas.

There’s a lot of noise out of the US. Most is just media/grifter outrage & alarm. For instance even if RFKJr* is not appointed, another equally bizarre langer will be. So it doesn’t matter in the >big picture<. The critical thing is helping Trans & NB people. Follow Erin, cut the noise.

Trump's spending freeze was unconstitutional and a violation of the Impoundment Control Act. But the public uproar yesterday should serve as a reminder that Trump's plans to gut federal programs are deeply unpopular. Keep fighting. Keep up the pressure. Don't tune out. www.cnn.com/2025/01/29/p...
