if you feel politics are everything, don’t stop here. if you can’t tolerate some disagreement, don’t stop here.
I may share things I don’t agree with, if I feel it’s important for context.

a long time ago I was in an abusive relationship.
tonight I found out the man who helped me get out of it… died.

they’re right.
there is a class system. every time an issue erupts, ANYWHERE, the answer, is always to the detriment of the lower classes.
usually, the only benefits felt are felt by the rich.

instead of addressing this problem, politicians are weaponizing this divide.

watching the inside cecot segment.

trump is the ugliest of racist old men.

I wish for the day his heart explodes… the day I rush out to buy black balloons, cake and champagne.

today I found out I got a B- in the class I thought was kicking my @ss.
I was slow to register after the brown shooter. all the classes I would have rushed to take, were taken… so I registered for english composition and ASL.

maybe this could be an calm, easy semester.

save the chaos for later.

the last thing I’ll say about brown, I had heard earlier… but I feel like saying it now.
when providence police couldn’t cut it, a homeless guy posting on reddit provided the tip that ended the mystery.

I’m glad a homeless guy got all the money he needs to set himself back up.

“We’re not talking about gaining access to confidential investigatory efforts. These are basic records.”

We’ve been advocating for years to modernize and improve RI's public records laws, despite pushback from law enforcement agencies. Rhode Islanders deserve reasonable access to public records.
Brown shooting leaves a community searching for answers. But R.I. law keeps key information hidden. • Rhode Island Current
Brown University mass shooting has added emphasis to advocates' push to make 911 calls and university police arrest reports subject to public records requests.

despite being a dark and dismal rainy day, I feel good.
yesterday I made an appointment to pick my next classes and after a week of hopelessness, now I have hope…
that and two $10 grocery store pines that, I hope will survive my near black thumb to one day be planted in the yard near my first house
December 19, 2025 at 3:43 PM
so if the suspect killed himself, (I’m guessing) the odds were good he WAS guilty.

problem solved…
I hope.

I’ve gotta register for classes. I’d feel a whole lot better about it if the next announcement were ‘we caught the guy, problem solved’.

for the last few weeks I’ve been slightly worried about my health insurance.

now it feels like the faith I had something would be done, because the consequences are so high, was misplaced.

there’s a little dread now.

every time I see the search for the brown university shooter referenced as “stagnant” or “beleaguered”, I feel hopeless.

people died this time.

how could this guy get away too?
