Hiked halfway up a mountain today with friends and then came home and had to get in bed with flu-type chills. This is the pits.

It’s state sponsored rape and murder of a disenfranchised demographic of its own people. That, folks, is a key component of fascism.

Government efficiency is when every federal agency has to send a daily emergency email to its workers telling them to ignore another daily email from a different department trying to fire them without knowing what their jobs are.

Alaska is worth fighting for. Every corner of every red state is worth fighting for. The change I want doesn’t require a single person to die, just a few to be disempowered from harming others.

This administration hates cities and loves sprawl. Park your tall truck and your minivan side by side in your big garage, then turn on the 24-hour hate and fear marathon. Don’t be around different people. Let the local environment give way to another overpass, you’ll be home sooner, and that’s good.

Today’s call was about the CFPB, a slam-dunk efficient part of our government, unless you think there should be more defrauding the American people. Also, remember which branch of government you’re in, senators (and Nick), and how Article I doesn’t make an exception for anything like DOGE.

It’s now on the record that I asked both of our cowardly excuses for senators to defend THEIR OWN BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT by not confirming this Christian Nationalist who wants to enforce his delusions via executive fiat.

Read history. Oligarchs have owned and controlled our government before. They’ve attacked oppressed groups, gone after migrants, and enacted mass violence against workers who dared resist. But people kept fighting. They organized. They built power. What we need to do is not unprecedented.

Been using 5 calls to harangue my Republican reps about something new every day at lunch. Yesterday it was “Why does Elon have my SSN?” Today it was “Fucking with the Department of Education will hurt a lot of children.” They deserve no peace until they begin to defend our constitution and people.

My own opinion is that it's good to signal (through words and/or actions) the virtues that you value; that's one of the most important parts of maintaining a healthy community.

It was last afternoon/ evening in the church fellowship hall. She read poems(I always love to watch new audiences hear her work) and emceed1/3
