I’ve done some reflecting today and have reminded myself of what Maya Angelou said: “when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.” It’s not surprise to anyone who knows me that I have more than my fair share of trauma.

I’m so tired of seeing more & more Christian worship music on #AmericanIdol every year. I don’t typically enjoy it, even musically, but then to know it’s part of the slide toward #ChristianNationalism is just nauseating. Imagine a Muslim, Pagan, or Hindu person singing a worship song! It’d never fly

The only thing more terrifying than standing up to fascism is what will happen if we lie down for it.

I really love how this one came out. Going back for more cherry blossom pics next week.

I truly loathe Republicans. As in, hatred oozes from every fiber of my being. I know it sounds hyperbolic, but I truly think most of them are soulless at this point. They’ve lost or burned away their souls in their never-ending support of white supremacy and power at any cost.

I have no love for Carrie Underwood cause I don’t trust her or her politics, but seeing her know all the words to “Freak on a Leash” and “Bodies” wasn’t on my list of ever seeing lol

I know it’s silly, but I’m genuinely upset about TikTok. It’s just a thing in and of itself, but it feels emblematic of everything. I really think the US is gonna fall to pieces in the next decade. If it weren’t for like half a dozen people, I’d just move abroad and call it a day. I’m so tired.
