Yes.
It still requires people to suffer.
And many of those that will suffer are children.
I vehemently disagree with the administration’s supporters.

But I don’t want ANYONE to go hungry. I don’t want ANYONE to suffer.
The problem with the “wait till Trump voters start suffering” theory of political change is that it requires people to suffer.

Saw that it’s #blackcatday

This is BatCat.
She is not my cat.

(But she still needs to be fed & finally enjoys lovings & we heard that people just drop unwanted pets out here 😭…
so she’s now my stray/porch/outside cat)

After I finish a book, I give my husband a book report. I read, he doesn’t but loves me and enjoys the stories ☺️

book report on
A Drop of Corruption by @robertjbennett.bsky.social.

Excellent book. Highly recommend!

“Distance reminds us that there’s a lot more to the universe than just people— that there’s even a lot more to people than just people. It reminds us that there are mental spaces inside our skulls as enormous as the spaces out there.”

Visited Mount St. Helens and Coldwater Lake this morning. The volcano is hazy in the distance because it’s smoking, not from wildfires 😳
Coldwater Lake is a barrier lake created by the 1980 eruption.

Shoutout to @nnedi.bsky.social for writing beautiful books and using the word “undulating” in a way that doesn’t make me want to throw up or throw a book across the room.

Death of the Author is brilliant.

“When people said, ‘I don’t feel safe,’ even if they were being stoked by misinformation, the response shouldn’t have been the numbers…it should have been listening, & then proposing what we can do more to make you feel safer in your community.”

So proud he’s the Governor that made me a KY Colonel.

Went out to Deception Pass this weekend & walked across this scary bridge with cars going by.
The winds were high & the views were spectacular. If you’re not afraid of heights, I highly recommend it!
If you are afraid of heights, there are trails to beaches below ☺️

“…stop saying
"We go into this country,
we go into that country
We do this, & we do that,"
& I′m going "Shh! Shh!
We don't do anything, they do it to us
We are part of the victims, we are not part of the victimizers"

Yeah, well I asked Deep Thought and after 7.5 million years of supercomputing, it said,
