His biological name? Wouldn’t that be “human”?

Sometimes all you need is a good friend to talk you down when 44 yr old memories create guilt.

I still want swords to be turned to plowshares, even when the guy who loved swords gets killed by one

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

I need to spend more time over here and less time over there. Ugh.

If you’re going to use words like ‘pedantic’ and ‘pretentious’, you should eschew laziness and employ the proper verb.

May=permission

How I know I have a mild COVID case: NyQuil still tastes vile. On the plus side: feeling well enough today to get about 5 loads of laundry done & only required 1 nap.

Suz Hemond @suzhem.bsky.social · Jul 30

COVID is still out there. I managed to evade it the past five years. It is currently kicking my ass.

Listening to my sister speak to Rep Tom Barrett’s office regarding the BBB. It’s maddening how they’re trying to downplay how atrocious this bill is. Also had to tell this guy that saying “no kids that I know of” is an inappropriate response to the question of whether or not he has children.

I wonder if Donald Trump realizes that he’s made Stephen Colbert an historical figure in our nation’s history. 🤔

So many things that should go without saying…

Firing everyone who could tell you what you're doing is unethical or illegal does not make what you're doing ethical or legal.

They are the creepiest looking things, too.

This is so disturbing. Fascists cosplaying as law and order enthusiasts.

I’ve been saying this for 10 years.

All things considered, I'd rather see a 21st century with flying cars than this shit out of 1933 Berlin.

Good morning! I hope everyone slept well with no dystopian dreams to mar their slumber. Wish I could say the same.

Suz Hemond @suzhem.bsky.social · Apr 9

It should go without saying, yet here we are having to say it again. Republicans are NOT fiscally responsible.

BrooklynDad_Defiant! @mmpadellan.bsky.social · Apr 9

The people telling you to "be cool" while THEY fuck up your 401K are going to be fine financially, no matter what happens.

Fuck that.
Be pissed.
STAY pissed.

And vote Republicans OUT.
Every last cowardly one of them.

Good morning and Happy Saturday to everyone who agrees that if playing golf with the Saudis is more important to you than honoring our dead soldiers, or dealing with the financial crisis YOU started, you don't deserve to be President.

RESIGN, trump.
You piece of shit.

Thank you Jeffrey Goldberg and The Atlantic for showing us that we still have a free press and a fourth estate.

FYI criticizing Israel is not antisemitic, but supporting Israel only because you’re waiting for the Rapture to happen so all the Jews burn in Hell is.

Woke up this morning to no swelling and can bear weight on my foot. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Suz Hemond @suzhem.bsky.social · Mar 18

Actually not sure if it’s broken, but it has all the hallmarks of the last time it happened so…🤷🏻‍♀️

Suz Hemond @suzhem.bsky.social · Mar 18

How did I fracture my 5th metatarsal on my right foot this time, you ask? My hallucis longus tendon has been unmercifully tight the past couple of days…🤦🏻‍♀️

Thanks to dysautonomia, my body lives in fight/flight mode & I get triggered by stupid sh!t all the time. Today it was a video of a girl with her jaw wired shut. 🤦🏻‍♀️
