My kid started her first chant today and made her mom so proud. Unfortunately my generation didn’t deliver so hers will have to. She can vote in eight more years and she is pissed. #handsoff

But why would the government WANT my 401(k) and MESP 529 to tank? Hmmm. What possible reason could they have to crash the economy and decimate my retirement and college funding plans?

‘Ganders - McMorrow has done an amazing job as my district’s state senator. She’s the real deal, in my mind. How can we present her to Northern and West Michigan and get folks the info they need to make a decision to support her?

Sharing for Michigan friends, tip of the mitt in particular. Hope you are hanging in there. I just had an argument last week on the Petoskey News Review site with someone who thought it’s okay to eliminate the National Weather Service because he has “common sense and a barometer.”

There’s no legal requirement in the US to carry ID at all times. Sometimes, if I’m not driving, I may leave the house without my license. What is to prevent a masked group of “agents” from detaining me? I would have said the Constitution but clearly not so much these days.

Did you have a brain tumor for breakfast? He can’t require us to do shit. He doesn’t regulate elections. Please report on his incessant executive orders like you have some common goddamn sense.

Every time my 10-year-old daughter sees a convertible sports car driving around town she says, “Oooh, looks like someone’s having a midlife crisis…”

More than 1 million Canadian tourists visited Michigan every year. 46% of all international visitors to Michigan hail from Canada. Northern Michigan is tourism-dependent, dominated by Trump supporters, and in for a hard summer.

Once you establish that people can be punished because the administration doesn't like their speech, expanding the bounds of who can be treated that way becomes inevitable.

Here’s an activity - take a statement from one of these Christian Nationalist politicians (like Josh Schriver) and replace the word faith with hate. If the statement makes sense, they are a Nazi. Example: “my makes me want to overturn gay marriage” vs “my _ makes me love my neighbor.”

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Sometime in the past four years, someone stuck a paperclip into Elon Musk’s pinhole and restored his factory settings: white male raised in Apartheid South Africa.

I have never begrudged people with wealth having more than me but I have a huge problem with them having everything. We are not in a deficit because we’re overspending. It’s because we’ve been under collecting from the richest Americans, because they said we should.

I don’t know about y’all, but I’m starting to think the only thing that kept the planes from crashing before was diversity.

If you live in Haley Stevens’ district you can call her DC office and speak to a live staffer. I just called and said while I appreciate her social media posts about the USAID situation, I fully support and expect her to show up to these events physically and in person to demonstrate resistance.

I’m so curious what the so-called adults in the room in the first Trump administration are thinking about the destruction of the Republic. Like Gens Kelly and Mattis - are they Christofascists at their molten centers or just happy to get richer, too?

No point, purpose, or agenda: for a while, I was flying into DC on a weekly basis for a project. I always chose Reagan over Dulles because the flight path in past the monuments felt like being on a roller coaster. At the time I thought it was fun. Thinking about that and this terrible tragedy.

Question for Bluesky pros…I have a few friends IRL on Bluesky who don’t post often but that I’d like to check in on since I’m weaning myself off of Meta platforms. What’s the best way to gather them for easier browsing? A list?

DEI does not mean hiring unqualified folks simply because their skin color isn't white or they don't have a penis. DEI means reaching out and making sure that QUALIFIED folks from marginalized communities are given the same opportunity to fill an opening.

So, worst case someone repeated a Nazi salute several times during the inauguration but the best case - the billionaire tech-bro man-child who bought the sitting president, did a lot of drugs and gesticulated wildly during the inauguration - is also not good.
