THE END IS NEAR

Okay, I might not be that serious, but it’s close.
I’ll be in San Antonio this weekend at No Kings.

We shouldn’t be proud the police aren’t coming to our protests and our demonstrations. That means we’re not making them uncomfortable enough.

We’re boring them.

We’re making a point that’s already been made.

This isn’t good trouble, this is an annoyance.

Hey DOGE. I found some fraud and waste for you.

Fun fact. A million years ago I was very passionate about a political thing that was happening, and due to circumstances barely under my control I was around a lot of it. My charming husband made me desktop picture for my work computer and I still have/love it. It’s more pertinent now tbh.

Love is love guys. Love is love.

Taylor Jenkins and Jake LaRavia are in a better place now.

Important to remember while you’re paying back the loans for the egg hunt this Easter, capitalism sucks.

How would Congress react if Trump removed Pete Hegseth and nominated Erik Prince to replace him? How many people remember Blackwater?

Embarrassing real time photo. Yes I was so sad I went back to bed. Yes I’m still proudly wearing my Memphis shirt. (Yes I know that’s an angle that shows all my chins, but I don’t know y’all so who cares.)

I read a very good book. 💕

We need a hero. We need someone who cares more about the constitution than getting reelected. We need someone who can yell and scream to defend our nation, a white man with undisputed credentials, and we need that person to motivate the rest of the nation to fight this. Looking at you, Gen Mattis.

My dear aunt died at 92 right before the inauguration. She said she asked god to take her before another Trump administration, and he did. As a Pearl Harbor survivor as a kid and she remembered the American planes coming to save them, and was very patriotic. I’m glad she died before she saw this.

It is. I had to check.

Openly mocking the Supreme Court - MOCKING - is the literal most terrifying and evil thing they’ve done.
April 18, 2025 at 8:16 PM
Literally how is this not the only thing anyone is talking about? It’s so unbelievable I even had to check a couple times. It’s so much scarier than anything else they’ve done, because they aren’t even acting like the law matters. They’re openly mocking it. That’s a different kind of evil.

I need a hobby that doesn’t involve freaking out about genocide and accidentally choosing fictional books about Iran, Bosnia, Afghanistan, and South Africa.

I also really dig all kinds of music and silly British mysteries where the main characters don’t fall in love and they just solve the murders.

Excellent book. Back cover compared it to Nabokov, which I didn’t initially see. Nabokov tends to write unlikable characters from a more sympathetic view with a flowery, but unpleasant, prose. This isn’t as heavy handed but takes on exposure to destruction shaping a person’s identity. Lil’ rough.

From the US. All of them.

This is now. These are pictures they are showing now.

As a Grizzlies fan I hate Golden State. Even more today. HOWEVER, I respect the shit out of Steve Kerr for never being afraid to stand up for what’s right.

Hey guys. Here’s a bird I saw.

Okay imma say a thing. WE THE PEOPLE should not need to fight this fight. We elect REPRESENTATIVES who are supposed to take action for their constituents. We have CLEARLY shown what we want, so they need to be acting with even a third of the dedication of the people they have sworn to represent.

GO TO DC. PHYSICALLY. It is YOUR JOB to stop this. You are the last branch standing. GO THERE PHYSICALLY. This is not a coincidence.
April 14, 2025 at 7:40 PM
IF YOU ARE NOT CONTACTING YOUR REPS AND TELLING THEM TO GO PROTEST IN PERSON YOU ARE NOT DOING YOUR JOB AS A CITIZEN.

If you need help finding info contact me, I’m happy to assist in any way I can.

THIS IS NOT A COINCIDENCE.

Welp. There was a system of checks and balances. There was a line the executive branch could not cross. Until today. Fuck this. Imma try to figure out the best action to take. I’m a white middle class mom/combat veteran and I’m happy to use any privilege I have to fight this. Open to suggestions.

Re-reading this from many years ago - having a hard time getting super into it but the insight is fascinating. More than anything else I’m shocked by how the analysis of class systems and aspirations are still applicable 40 years in the future. It didn’t all age well, but imma work through it.
