Whoever claims that this Nazi salute was accidental is....mistaken. His body language: Biting his lip. Slapping his chest. "I'm doing it! I know some of you hate it! But I love it. So there!"

Interesting that my meta settings included me following political people I never followed and listed as not to see any political posts (which definitely wasn’t me.) Undoing 15+ years of FB is taking longer than I thought. Can’t wait til it’s over.

Holidays are over. Back to life in reality and hellscape prep.

Thanks for the reminder that we need to remember this work, @pshyrein.bsky.social So timely… #amreading #booksky📚 #changepagebypage

Happy Thursday! It's so hard to keep up with days in this dark timeline we've slipped into. Time is all wibbly wobbly but not in a good way. It's not just me, right?

Fiction: Finished Witches in the Kitchen by Danielle Garrett. I’m trying to decide if I’m reading another cozy for my next fiction read or going into my “fiction for change” reading list. Nonfiction: On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder #booksky #amreading #monfsyreads

Have a masked fur baby to start your week 💙

Lesson number one… #ontyranny

Happy Monday! I wonder what kind of chaos we can create today… ;)

Buffalo Bill over the Women’s Bureau at the Department of Labor. Too dark?

The girls cried. The boys played Minecraft.

Sundays are for #reading… What is your current book? I’m reading two WILDLY different titles. I love to balance nonfiction with fiction. I needed comfy for this so… On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder and Witches in the Kitchen by Danielle Garrett

Sums up the current state of the US politics

I love a good intro that sets the stage in a concise way while exciting you to jump on the journey! “…the precedent set by the Founders demands that we examine history to understand the deep sources of tyranny, and to consider the proper responses to it.” Snyder #OnTyranny #BookSky #history

Get on #BookSky they said. My TBR is groaning. Someone needs to distract my family so I can go to the bookstore...
