Haven't posted on Bluesky in a good while. Still here, still alive. Still active. Still fighting. Also have chicks I hatched out. Y'all should take a breather from the dumpster fire, death, violence, impending civil war and depression... and appreciate the cuteness.

The armed, yellow-vested "peacekeepers" at the Utah 50501 protest in Salt Lake City opened fire into a crowd, hitting two people:

A Sāmoan fashion designer with two young kids, who died.

A second-generation Venezuelan immigrant and antiracist protester who was legally carrying. Cops charged HIM.

Meet Kim and Shego. I was on lists for the last year for any solo, female gerbils out there. And ended up in contact with not only one I was looking for, but one that matched Shego's age.

Good things do still happen. Tiny morale boost in the good fight.

Another individual that was incorrectly (illegally) sent to El.Salvador's prison. This one being an open LGBTQ individual and a makeup artist from California.

Appropriate reminder….

Reports of a raid in Mount Baker, WA this morning by unmarked ICE vans. Check in with friends if you have any at risk in the area. It's already an established pattern that ICE will detain legal immigrants and citizens, too.

ICE is still hunting.

Innocent people have now been recognized as having been sent to El Salvador on the illegal flight the Trump administration sent to the permanent prison.

Jawdropping.

You would expect this in a dictatorship, not the United States.

This country is unrecognizable.

Tomorrow, my bill repealing the ban on same sex marriage will be heard in House Judiciary at 8am.

The ban on same sex marriage has remained in our state constitution since the early 2000s, despite being deemed unconstitutional for the last decade. It's time to remove it.

PSA:

I don’t want to tear anyone down, but if accounts are asking for money please just be careful.

Follow them and learn if helpful, but do your own research before giving.

It is made worse when they block those who question them saying we are fake, when they are the ones asking for money.

Perfect capture …. Orion 💫✨💫✨💫✨💫

I would just like people to know that The Lorax was on Luigi Mangione's Goodreads list.

Incredible news! Montana’s Supreme Court just affirmed that the state’s gender affirming care ban is likely unconstitutional.

This makes the state the first state Supreme Court to rule that trans medical care is protected.

This applies REGARDLESS of what the US Supreme Court does.

“Governor of the Great State of Canada.” It’s small wonder that world leaders despise him and have trouble taking anything he says seriously.

I think I was just shadow banned on Facebook. Oh well! Time to focus here.

In other news, new to Bluesky and hoping it's a breath of fresh air. :)
