Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

Today a flower I’ve never seen before made me giggle out loud. Life is nice. Why do I make living so difficult?

Reposting because sometimes you gotta try and sell the thing you worked hard on and library support is evergreen.

This made my day quite a bit better.

Trump: don’t take acepitoemponoene RFK Jr: *moth crawls out of mouth* A nude man is in the background, only referred to as “the colonel” Person watching on tv: well if they say so

Read it and then tell everyone else to read it too. The sheer, eloquent, obvious common sense of it all is maddening. Do whatever you can to throw sand in the gears of the machine that assumes it is ordained to move forward.

Those fucking texts.

losing my mind at this. apoplectic. want to punch a wall, or a human being data4democracy.substack.com/p/the-mother...

My book is now available in a library Gallison Memorial Library in Harrington, ME! Which reminds me, you can buy my book (www.finishinglinepress.com/product/life...) or request it at YOUR local library. Either way, support libraries, one of the greatest ideas anyone has ever had!

Today I saw a kind of tree I’d never seen before because I walked a block further than I usually do.

Miss Rachel continues to have more of a moral backbone than 99% of public figures

1/ A remarkable essay by two eminent Israeli scholars "We wrote this essay to give [former IDF chief of staff's] words legal backing... We felt compelled to fulfill our human, conscientious, and civic duty, as Israelis – and as Zionists – who have expertise in areas related to the IDF’s ... order."

Without WTF w @marcmaron.bsky.social I would not have been introduced to Ezra Furman, Jason Isbell, or Joan Shelley, three artists that have given me a lot. Eternal thanks.

The first 11 pages are names of babies who are dead under the age of 6 months. The first 381 pages are all children.

Hey cis folks, now is a good time to look up these non-profits and resource centers and think about how you can help!

Finally watched CONCLAVE @pftompkins.bsky.social #ANTSAT

Hey you @kylerseibel.bsky.social, I loved reading your collection. Thank you for writing it.

@pftompkins.bsky.social i read this chapter heading out loud to my son, then, without thinking, sang, “two minutes later!” He was confused. I said, “you’ll understand when you’re older,” but I honestly don’t know if he’ll be into podcasts. Thanks for infiltrating my subconscious!

You’ve seen the same therapist for years. One day you call to schedule an appointment and a stranger says your therapist is no longer there. No notice before or after from the therapist. This is what @kaiser-permanente.bsky.social did, in the kids psychiatry dept, to the family of an autistic child.

Stupid books and their miniature constructions of possible humanity.

My book turns 2 today! You can still get it here: t.ly/V_eS8 There are a lot of books in the world, but this one is mine. Be safe and kind. Thank you.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

Looking for a poem I read in high school. It was more or less about exploitation. Each stanza addressed a different creation, the first marvels at the wright bros plane then ponders its use for advertising, another praises HAMLET then reminds Shakespeare about his funny plays...anyone?

“The evils of capitalism are as real as the evils of militarism and racism. The problems of racial injustice and economic injustice cannot be solved without a radical redistribution of political and economic power” -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

“…dreams appear to be harmless; dreams don’t hurt. Dreams don’t love, either, that’s how we drown.” -James Baldwin from JUST ABOVE MY HEAD

NOTHING TO BE DONE! LA LA LA!

HEARTBREAK IS KNOWING WHAT YOU WANT WON’T HAPPEN The numb shock creeping that the stars are not enough and no words known prove otherwise.
