Anyone in the Upper Valley have a drum kit I can borrow for a couple hours the night of March 8th?

Back at Mom’s because they’re doing apartment inspections today. They didn’t give appropriate notice, but that’s typical of how they treat these 55+ tenants. I hope they come while I’m here. They can be SO rude, I want to be a buffer if I can.

I’m 54, so my measles immunity could be waning. I asked my PCP if I could be tested and she put in the orders for MM&R titers. I’m heading to the lab today. Thanks for the push!

One of my favorite things about BlueSky is how I can like feeds such as “Vermont“ & “New Hampshire“ and then choose to “show samples from your saved feeds in your following feed” to see random posts about my local region from people I don’t follow. (Yet.)

💔 When I was 9, I had a Fake Book containing all my favorite songs (at the time, 1979) and I would play “Killing Me Softly” on my little keyboard over & over until my mom begged me to play anything else.

Mom sent a bunch of panicky texts this morning that there was a loud pop at the wall! She needs a new microwave! It might not even be safe for me to go over there! Now I’m waiting for her to read my messages saying to try resetting the outlet. (This has happened before but I’d better not say so…)

I know we talk about this constantly but it is truly one of the greatest mindfucks of my lifetime. as an 80s kid a Nazi was the most unambiguously, nonnegotiably evil thing you could even be ADJACENT TO, like morality for kindergarteners, and now we have to relitigate that shit every day???? ffs

Being a fan of “The Americans” helped me follow this incredible story. It’s as if Big Balls is Paige Jennings’ son.

I feel like I’m going to throw up. We absolutely rely on USPS out here in the wilderness. I know everyone does, but it’s even how we get our local daily newspaper.

they have not been shy about this, they have said that 2025 will be akin to 1776 and 1865 in terms of a radical shift in governance at the federal level I mean they've been arguing against the Magna Carta if you've been paying attention

It’s school vacation week so Kid 16 & I went ice skating at Plymouth State this morning, then thrifting at Ladders/Stepladders, which are worth the trip if you’re anywhere nearby. They have endless rooms full of sporting goods, craft supplies, clothing, everything else…

I’ve been focused on the Nazi angle because I’ve been watching for them my whole life… But this point right here. 😔

Umberto Eco put together a now-famous list of 14 attributes of fascistic states. I'm going to discuss each of them in hopes this helps ppl understand that fascism is not just a buzzword. We're going to go through these by theme, so strap in. 🧵

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

This is a program for teenagers with serious disabilities who are finishing high school and transitioning to their next steps in life. Trump just axed it, effective immediately, in the middle of the night, with no notice.

If you’re joining a “Not My President’s Day” rally, like the one at noon in Concord tomorrow, please remember to wear a mask. 😷 Not only will you help protect people around you, you’ll be harder to recognize in photos. Plus, it’s going to be really cold & windy!
