Be safe out there, Maui!
Emergency Alert just sent to our phones. Not sure if it’s island-wide or what? We live in Maui Lani area of Kahului (flooding is not normally an issue)

Can I just be be like cryogenically frozen or something for the next 4 years and then just wake me up when this is over if we’re good? I’m so tired.

We are in the shock & awe campaign, aimed at demoralizing people so they feel defeated & succumb, or check out, which is the gateway to apathy. This is the dictator playbook & I should know - I write about authoritarian regimes for a living. Better to stay defiant & REFUSE to obey in advance.

I forget… is it 1 Tribute from each district or 2? It’s 2 right?

I never imagined these scenarios and am continuously shocked that this reality seems to get worse each day it continues.
Reports of ICE harassing even indigenous people are an extra layer of disturbing that I didn't forsee. But here's what should happen! Please share #laloalcaraz cartoons

Some Democrats have expressed frustration that Democratic Party officials and electeds aren’t doing enough to pushback against the Trump administration.

Congressman Jamie Raskin is hosting a moderated zoom call about this tomorrow.

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

I’m the woman out here in the rain putting a hot pack on my tortoise, who doesn’t even like me, because I’m worried it’s too cold for him. And by cold, I mean it’s like 66 on Maui right now. 🥶

And yes, that’s a temperature controlled house made just for him that he refuses to go into. 🤷🏼‍♀️

This steady rain in Kahului for the past hour is so beautiful! Much needed.

This is unacceptable! Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren, reporting that Navajo citizens in Arizona and New Mexico have faced “negative, sometimes traumatizing experiences” with federal agents targeting undocumented immigrants after Trump’s recent immigration orders.

I never thought I’d say this, but I think Joe Exotic might be right…

Heading to book club. It’s nice to get out and not think about things for an hour or two.

Same.
I'm mostly not checking social media, mainstream media, or any kind of media these days really.

So, will someone please let me know when he's dead?

Maybe you could send me a letter or something?

You do not have to answer anything about your neighbors to anyone.

Reading is political.

Reading has always been political.

Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground.
