I am very sad about this, I love the train tracks in my hometown

She is right

Today's Fog rating: 7.2 out of 10 Nice movement, not a lot of variation.

Cool cool cool, one of the brands I carry just announced they're pulling out of the US market.

Salt bloops

Okay, back to working on things for my show with @pat.alaskarobotics.com for July

Happy little flowers

Two of my main nursing/maternity bra companies that are based in Australia and New Zealand aren't shipping to the USA because of these tariffs. I've carried one brand for a decade and the other for about 5 years now. And yes, they're manufactured in China because that's where the good factories are.

Funny how the paperwork only matters when it’s a woman or minority voter.

People sometimes ask "what are the crimes" and let me tell y'all, as a lawyer, that intentionally copying, altering, destroying, or disrupting government computer systems is super-duper illegal if you don't have a spotless paper trail authorizing it, which none of these DOGE people do.

It's like a wordle, but with Costco Costcodle #583 2/6 ⬇️🟨 ✅ costcodle.com

Today in toddlers are tiny hackers. The 3 year old somehow set my husband's autocorrect and word suggestions to these 4 languages instead of English.

In 1939, Hitler authorized a euthanasia program for institutionalized disabled people It required doctors to first identify those who should be euthanized In 1941, this program became the model for the death camps A registry of disabled people is, in fact, a 5 alarm fire

Oh great, eugenics

Also two of many.

Representative call update 4/21/2024 around 9 am. Talked to Emma in Murkowski's office again. Voicemail in Begich's DC office. Voicemail in Sullivan's DC office.

heck of a "learning about a major news event from Bluesky jokes" morning

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

Manufacturing employs 11m, tourism 12m. #richkid #amateur

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result? Demagoguery and corruption.

Some watercolor flowers for a very fun project

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops. I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Remind you of anyone?

History always has a lesson.

Started to glaze today. Gonna finish tomorrow.

The League of Women Voters declares a constitutional crisis - and we're doing something about it. If there's a cardinal rule of protecting American democracy, it's that you do not eff with the LWV.

Now on day 80?

🏆 @rollingstone.com wins the Headline of the Day Award This is how it’s done. At least someone understands the assignment. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

It's genuinely hard to express to sort of normal not politically plugged in non-lawyers *how* lawless the Trump administration is, and I think that's some part of the problem. You sound like you're hyperventilating, but it's just a flat description of what is going on.

Rinse and repeat

Sen. Lisa Murkowski is urging Alaskans to speak out against changes the Trump administration is bringing to their lives. “Keep calling. Keep the emails. Keep the social media going,” she told a conference of 500 nonprofit leaders in Anchorage Monday.

Screaming into the void

No one should be above the law, most especially the President. Ignoring a Supreme Court ruling to facilitate Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return isn't just cruel; it's unconstitutional. They're saying the quiet part aloud — if they get away with it now, they'll do it to anyone.

Working on making something different

Listening to the live stream of Folk Fest at home thai evening. The toddler refuses to dance with me, but if I ask him to act like an octopus, it's almost like dancing.
