While I’m infuriated what’s going on in the US, I still can’t help but get pummelled with the reality that here in the UK, Johnson and Sunak are still walking around like nothing they did mattered because it was always easier to point at chaos in the US. ‘Look over there’ is a good UK cover.

We just won a court order stopping DOGE and unauthorized, unelected, and unvetted individuals like Elon Musk from accessing people's private data and blocking federal funds. We will keep fighting to protect all Americans from this administration’s destruction.

See, the thing about being multicultural is trying to figure out which ancestor wants what offering, and I know they're all arguing about whether it's proper or not. I can just imagine the noise of Irish, Indigenous, and Gullah-Geechee all arguing about how the placement of food is supposed to go...

If it didn't blow a hoolie on the regular here, there'd be a bottle-spirit tree already by my door, but I can't bring the negritude too heavy out here. (maybe I'll put one in the foyer?) I miss Hep Mama: she coulda told me all this.

And yeah, the dickhead local counsellor who has been suspended for being a transphobic creep is STILL writing in the paper about how he's been wronged even though the receipts were published. His own council is telling him to STFU and stop making it worse, but he's on a full frothing bender now.

It's good to still have joy in your life. It's crucial. It's cool. Swing that sword while you bake a pie.

We are launching a GoFundMe for our lovely @zzclaybourne.bsky.social. Those of you who attended the Black Men Reading Speculative Fiction 2 know that he was too sick even to read that night—after all the love & work he poured into organizing it! This is to help him as he recovers! gofund.me/8e2a5252

Today's mission while the wind blows outside - going through the seed stash, plan for the next local seed swap, and maybe do some nerdery on the 3D printer - it's giving my husband the Ubernerd LIFE to play with such geekery, but it's exhausting for him.

It’s been a long fucking day, I’m tired, and I misspoke. Let me rephrase it in a more correct way. Fuck Hakeem Jeffries and almost every other elected Democratic official for forcing me to be the one to get arrested instead of them doing their goddamn job and being leaders.

If I'm very lucky, I can get out and mow the meadow one time this week before the temps turn and spring bursts in a rush. I can see the buds on the gean outside my window, getting ready to burst, so I best get a moveon. The cuckoo flower will be starting soon.

When people said "But what about SWEDEN???" constantly during the pandemic...this is what Sweden was doing. Euthanising its elderly.
