At this time I'd like to officially come out of the closet as a woo-woo kooky catlady. Please unfriend accordingly if such content will annoy you!

This has been unfolding slowly over the last few years, following a cancer diagnosis, treatment, and spiritual experiences I tried hard to ignore.
The only way to describe how I feel about *All This*? Feels like the time I got jumped at a crowded bus stop. Weirdo ripped open my blouse, exposing my breasts; the other 3 men at the same bus stop just stood there watching, too scared to intervene. Then came a timid "are you ok?"- after he fled...😡
One thing that surprised me about getting older: How far-and -yet-near-in-time everything feels. I used to think 100 years was an absurdly long time. As in, the very definition of long ago and faraway. But in fact, 100 years is nothing. We are gnats, is all.
In the US, during the last 20s era, everybody had grown up with grandparents who were in or who at least remembered The Civil War.
I'm still so mad about the East Wing I haven't been able to let it go all day lol

I'm surprised by how mad it's made me. Unsentimental me!
All of my grandparents are long dead. I regret never asking them directly what the birth of my parents was like. What raising them was like? How they found out I was born? I had no interest in anything like that until I became the same age I remember them being. Now there's no one to ask. Humbling.
VEHICLE: I'm strictly "VEE-ah-cull" and NEVER ever ever "Vee-hickel"... I do say "vee-HICK-you-lurr" tho, so no worries there.
I was briefly able to peek at the crowds, and it was truly inspiring. I didnt manage any pics, tho. I was busier than I thought I would be. Not at all the day I expected, but no complaints

Cancer in dummies? Somehow, I feel attacked

Okay I am back from the valley of woe is me. Today is a new day. Today will be about standing on the principles we claim to have. Or perhaps a stronger metaphor is in order:

The Assignment is due, people! Show Your Work!
Today has tested every last one of my nerves. I'm too tired to simmer with rage and too tired to burst into tears.

I wasn't too tired to inhale an entire bag of donuts, tho. Don't worry, I threw up after. I wasn't even trying.
Tho I stayed in Portland only very briefly before I moved to Seattle, I can attest everything they are doing is 1000% on brand for how they roll. This Jones' Good Ass BBQ & Foot Massage style approach to antifascism is as iconic as it is correct. Just say'n.
I feel like i just woke up in the timeline where AI is the official language of the United States

We don't need to be talking about who will be the Democratic nominee in 2028. We need to be talking about who will lead the marches RIGHT NOW, who will be our voice RIGHT NOW.

Who is our Lech Wałęsa? Our Václav Havel? Our Nelson Mandela? Our Gandhi? Is there such a person in today's United States?
Tfw you felt pretty cute and spry until a rerun of Cheers came on and you suddenly remembered exactly what you were wearing when you first saw it air 42 years ago.
I hate scrabble cuz i feel like ENGORF should be a word and its not. I am so engorfed with dread about tomorrow

It really is wild that white folks invaded a land base already peopled with Indigenous residents, brought in people from Africa and enslaved them, and are now somehow surprised and appalled that these folks are here.
We dont actually have to be doing this. Not any of it. Every part of it is our collective agreement to put up with this and keep letting it go. We can make another decision. Moreover, we WILL. But don't make me wait too long, Harpo
Keeping my day job will require me getting way more hip to new tech and social media tools than I ever wanted or tried to be. I'm in mourning about it. Luckily, there is a long line of young folks waiting to help Boomerated Gen Xers get hip. HA! I GOT JOKES! DOUBLE SPACED PUNCTUATION AND JOKES!

"It is ridiculous that antifa has become this boogeyman. If they're going to tell us they are going to find the founder of Antifa, isn't the founder of Antifa...Winston Churchill? FDR? Didn't they lead a war against fascism? Wasn't that anti-fascism?" - me

“the constitution forbids race conscious remedies” would be news to the people who wrote the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments
Griem goes there, arguing in response to Justice Jackson that there can be no race-conscious remedy absent a finding of intentional discrimination.

The NHS is changing trans people back to birth sex on file, meaning we will not be treated appropriately for our bodies.

This is deadly, completely unacceptable, and the result of hateful far right ideology in our politics and healthcare.
Just got a call from a lovely but very nervous Dr, who advised I wouldn't be routinely screened for breast cancer because I'm not indicated as being "biologically female" on the central NHS database and my biology wouldn't indicate I'm at risk.

My records have been altered, which is upsetting.
How can I expect my plants to trust me and all my loving care when I eat salad right in front of them? And then complain about eating it to boot!? I got a lot of nerve...
