Photos from the No Kings rally today in SLC.

The No Kings protest rally at Utah’s State Capitol today was nothing short of spectacular! A sea of faces and American flags made me feel so proud to be an American!

This is wishing all my friends a prosperous, golden day.

I want to share my good news. At 71 years old, I have just accepted employment with the Salt Lake City School District to teach school! I’ve always wanted to teach, and finally that opportunity came! I’m going to be a schoolmarm.

Just a reminder this exists. And is publicly available. Repost and share until we get the actual list.

Cat on roof.

It was a tsunami of human faces, flags, and voices in SLC Ut this evening. When the crowd started chanting “immigrants built this nation,” I lost it and started to weep. We are all immigrants and that cannot ever be denied!

2/2 and it is, again, the American people! We are rising in numbers to big to ignore! We are fierce and formidable, and we will, within time, wrest our democracy from the jaws of tyranny and criminality! We will succeed against the abomination of the Trump reign! We will not be destroyed.

After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941, Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, a Marshal Admiral of the Imperial Japanese Navy, allegedly wrote in his diary, “I fear we have awakened a sleeping giant filling him with a terrible resolve.” Again, we are seeing a sleeping giant awaken, 1/2

Early this morning out on my daily walk, I noticed this tree. I crawled into and under it. Once inside, I felt as if I were in a botanical cathedral. It was strangely spiritual.

The protest March at the Utah State Capitol today was nothing short of spectacular!

I finally reached 10k followers! Thanks to everyone who made this possible. I have a great many friends on Bluesky!

Tonight I thought of the Statue of Liberty and all it use to represent. What happened to these heart wrenching words that one time were true. "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.” We are becoming the “huddled masses.”

This month I’m listening to and celebrating Black History Month. I’m listening to Ben E. King, Aretha Franklin, The Crystals, The Platters, and The King of Soul, James Brown, and too many to mention. Pictured below is the great Ben E. King.

Today will, and shall always remain, our great shame by allowing an authoritarian, adjudicated criminal to hold the levers of power. Trump will rob and strip Americans of their sacred liberties as they will find themselves increasingly poorer and distraught. It will result in despair, and revolt.

When people start bringing JC into government, it’s a slick ploy to appear benevolent, when they are anything but!

Hegseth stated “I have failed in things in my life, and thankfully, I’m redeemed by my lord and savior, Jesus,” Hegseth replied. Really? Half of the American public does not believe that Hegseth has any redeeming qualities whatsoever to lead the Pentagon. He’s a sexual predator and alcoholic.1/2

I really miss President Carter!

I have this gnawing fear that when President Biden leaves the presidency, we are all going to suffer a loss that will be followed by grief, and sorrow.

The whole issue with Gaetz was staged. He resigned from Congress to avoid a searing report of sexual misconduct. Together. Trump and Gaetz thought up the AG’s appointment, knowing it wouldn’t fly. A ruse to help Gaetz in his predicament.

Orbit and I just joined Bluesky.
