🕯️ I'm a liberal, a channel, an intuitive healer, and a dreamer of dreams. I enjoy reading, sipping tea, sharing space with engaging women, and cheering for American football. I believe we're much more than our earthly experiences suggest. 🙌🏻🔮

Fact-checking PH on the WPS. 🧐
There's strong evidence that women's participation in security efforts makes countries safer.
That's why leaders in over 100 countries have taken action to further it.
One of them—who signed the U.S. Women, Peace & Security Act into law in 2017—was Donald Trump.

The fact that this has to be suggested is astonishing, and yet here we are.
If you have the means, stock up on what you can. Think Covid 2020.
If you have the added means, find the local charity of your choice and see what staples they routinely need for ops. Help em out.
This could get rough. Even if Trump reverses it all today, the supply line bubble has already formed.

We're going to have disruptions to access of basic goods unlike anything we have ever experienced in our lifetimes.

In a scathing dissent, Ketanji Brown Jackson slammed the court's ruling made under the “shadows of our emergency docket."
“Make no mistake: We are just as wrong now as we have been in the past, with similarly devastating consequences. It just seems we are now less willing to face it,” she wrote.

Trump is LYING about other countries' tariffs -- by as much as 3-10x
Literally ZERO countries in the world have tariffs as high as Trump is claiming.

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

American women friends. Are you aware one of the policies listed in the SAVE Act, the GOP are pushing through, is that women’s birth certificate names must match your current name. All of it. Changed your name when you got married? You won’t be able to vote.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

WTAF ... Why am I shocked by this, given everything else? And yet, I am shocked and disgusted.
The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.
'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts

I'm angry with my two senators for NH. It feels like even more of a betrayal with Shaheen, given that she isn't seeking reelection. What did she have to lose, apart from the respect of her constituents?
These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP.
Schumer
Fetterman
Cortez Masto
Durbin
King
Shaheen
Gillibrand
Schatz
Hassan
Peters
Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

I know it's a shit-show "out there," yet making every effort to keep said shit-show outside of our nervous systems will make it easier to do what needs doing to end it. Writing from those trenches and acknowledging it's a process of progress over perfection. Bless us all. 🙌🏻

Today's most important tasks:
1. Making my sister's birthday cake. (I only make it for her. It's very labor-intensive.)
2. Making a secondary dessert for those who aren't into the intensely chocolate birthday cake.
Cooking from the heart is more meaningful than ever in this bizarre time.

The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.
