SPED teacher, Functional Maths. One ‘home’ scattered across Sonoma County wine country, Southern Oregon Cascades, and South Kona coast. Never met a sand dollar shell, wild huckleberry, or antler shed I didn’t like. Anti fascist, anti MAGA.
I do love my houseplant weirdos. My two newest philos (squamiferum & ‘Tortum’) seemed ‘normal’ but their new leaves are CRAZY! One splits out of a pink silk stocking type structure with a fully formed hirsute limb for a stem; the other sort of hatches like a baby chick from a planty membrane.

"It remains to be seen what will happen when this case reaches the Supreme Court. But there is a very real chance that Texas’s gerrymander will fall entirely because of inept lawyering by Trump’s Justice Department..."

The idiocy just sweats out their pores.
DOD contractors “mistakenly” landed on a Mexican beach, declared it US property and planted “restricted area” DOD signs, triggering a tense confrontation with armed Mexican forces.
Mexico removed the signs, insisting the area is theirs.
Yet another example of total incompetence.

This is pure bullshit. This is what you get in an idiocracy. Thank you imbecile Trump voters.
This isn’t a policy decision; it’s a slap in the face to the people who kept the nation alive through two pandemics, chronic staffing crises, and decades of underinvestment.

SNOW IN HAWAII?!
That’s right — Mauna Kea, Hawaii just beat Denver, Colorado in the race for first measurable snow of the season!
Several inches fell at the UKIRT Observatory on Monday Morning — a surreal sight high above the tropics!

My spin on ‘Swedish Death Cleaning’ is creating Pinterest board inventories of the items in my homes w/comments on their provenance & value. All I have to give my daughters is my log-in credentials and they can sort out for themselves what they want to keep, sell, or donate when I’m gone.

I would crowd source a mega millions powerball sized donation to the reporter Trump called ‘piggy’ to hurtle her back in time to that very moment so she could say back to him ‘I know you are; but what am I?’

The weekend was very social (for me: two consecutive bar nights with friends) so tonight I’m having tea for dinner and unwinding with a Space Makers YouTube.

How do you organize your cleaning materials? I like baskets. I keep a bathroom basket, a kitchen basket, a floor basket, and a wood/walls/windows basket. I just carry the one I’m using along with me as I work.

I know I missed Caturday but this sweet senior has been really warming up to the new condo recently. Hanging out during the school day with the insane lil Aussie Posse actually does her a world of good even though she would be loathe to admit it.

I think Donald Trump is just hunkered down in the Oval Office shitting out a thin stream of crap nonstop. He’s lost control of the narrative, he’s lost control of his MAGA followers, and he’s lost control of his bowels.

Because, sure, I solicit all my spiritual advice from a guy with two teeth in his head, the vocabulary & reasoning power of a ‘slow’ seven year old, and a brown bag of $50k in all small bills…

See? Elon Musk literally chainsawed THIN AIR… When Michelle Wu shows up in public with a chainsaw in her hands a Christmas tree results. I can’t see a better argument for more women in leadership roles everywhere stat!
"Gripping a chainsaw as it roared to life, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu" was also my original lead for Election Night coverage in Boston

This is a no brainer. We can absolutely do this.
We stand with Rep. Jasmine Crockett in calling for an end to voting machines owned by Dominion. Our voting systems should never be controlled by anyone aligned with MAGA politics. It’s time to push for statewide bans on these machines.
