Tonight, I learned an old family friend passed a year ago and no one wrote them an obituary. I cried for her and for a home that hasn’t existed in decades. I gave myself insomnia. Then I had an odd interaction with B.D. Wong on Threads. It’s been a…weird…night. I think I’ll read myself to sleep now.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.

ICE agents better start reading up on the Nuremberg trials. Because when we get to the other side of this, and we will, "I was just following orders" ain't gonna cut it.

The next 100 days will be tougher than the last, they expect you to burn out and accept it, they expect you to stop protesting and sit quietly at home. They expect you to submit yourself to fascism and just let it happen. You are better than that. Make them expect your diligence and consistency. #3E

I’ve been in status migrainosus since March 5th. I’ve been given two migraine cocktails since with no relief. I’m tired and stressed and dizzy and nauseated and I just want to feel like myself again.

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment.

Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

I’ve had a migraine for over 2 weeks, which is also when I started Ajovy. I just turned over in bed and got dizzy. My Neuro doesn’t see a need to prescribe another abortive but is sending me to another specialist which means it’ll be months before I get any help. 😭

Can we please take a moment for Gayle King on the red carpet? This fabric is gorgeous and she looks great in this dress

It’s my favorite Wednesday of the month, Book Club night! Tonight we’re discussing The Mighty Red by Louise Erdrich.
I’m really grateful for the independent book store that hosts book club and attracts so many great progressive minds.

I’m stressed and I’ll be reading a lot this month to distract myself. So yeah, here’s my 2025 reads so far. The Mighty Red was my book club’s pick for the month. Creation Lake is my current read. #bookclub #booksky #firstdraftbookclub #fuckdrphil
