Do you feel down? Because you're a human and you're the only one like you. And I *promise* you are cool. If you've forgotten that, I hope you'll remember. That one time? That thing you do? See! Very cool. We're in this together.

I won a ticket to the R.E.M. cover band Michael Shannon & Jason Narducy & Friends play R.E.M. from Outsider Comics bsky.app/profile/outs... (if you're not familiar, check them out, they're in Fremont, & are fabulous!). They are so good! They invited Peter Buck, 1 of the founding members on stage!

Same #WIP as before. This is going to take a while to finish. Not quite half way there, and I'm wondering about running out of room on my circ needles. These rows are getting long! #ShowMeYourKnits #TransRights #TransgenderFlag #Shawl #PaintingBricksShawl #PaintingBricks

Now this is the energy and message from the people I wish I had seen at Rep. Pramila Jayapal's town Hall this past week! Taking notes. "Make them outlaw YOU!"

Please, please, PLEASE help the Ranked Choice Voting local elections bill get out of committee! IMO Ranked Choice Voting is the only way out of the 2 party stranglehold. It allows people to vote their conscience without being a spoiler, sending clear messages as the %'s for the other parties grow.

I'm beginning to think my lifelong intense terror around anything having to do with the subject of concentration camps wasn't a product of a past life, which I have sometimes suspected, but was really me being prescient. I mean, they say time isn't linear. This feels so familiar. Damn it!

I fast forwarded to 26 min. and was moved to tears. The governors of blue states give me such hope. We will not go quietly. #resist #FuckNazis #FuckTrump

What I liked: 🔥Panel was all women of color: Rep. Jayapal, Lavender Rights Project, NW Immigrants Rights Project, ACLU 🔥Gov. Bob popped in to a standing ovation. 🔥We've blocked some shit. 🔥Questions centered doing something DIFFERENT. #Dems #TownHall #Jayapal #Politics #Resist #Engage #Seattle

At Town Hall in Seattle for Rep. Pramila Jayapal's Community Forum. The line to get in the building is completely around 3 sides of the block, and still growing. People clearly are engaged and want answers. #Dems #TownHall #Jayapal #Politics #Resist #Engage #Seattle

No screens means no oversight. And we'll be digging up their mass graves in a generation or two and wringing our hands saying how awful this is. This cannot be allowed to happen.

I hope you find what you're looking for. I also hope you someday own an enchanted cottage that lurches through the wildlands on giant chicken legs, spreading fear and wonder in equal measure.

I wish I had taken notes in the courtroom last week where a US judge granted a TRO against the ban on medical care for transgender minors. The judge there was having none of Trump et. al.'s lawyer's evasiveness and she was very blunt in her ruling.
