This is a reminder for those of you not around for the Bush admin James Comey is a bonkers super right-winger. There are so many stories of him meddling illegally to tip the scales toward the right while a US Attorney and FBI. Fascism no matter how right you are will in the end come for you too.

Early morning walk. We had heavy rain and flood warnings in MI this morning but we have not seen anything but a drizzle. Maybe later. #corgi #corgisky

"One item of subtext that I think people miss in "Dracula" is that he's going to London because people there don't believe in vampires. Because that meant they wouldn't know how to protect themselves from him." #OverheardInABookstore

My 5-star review of Gideon the Ninth (The Locked Tomb No. 1) by Tamsyn Muir — It's gay goth Among Us, what's not to love

I don’t know if poetry works for writing about politics.

Ok but what if Jimmy Kimmel is raptured

I think I’m going to go back to asking my elders about anything. Search engines are no longer valid a lot of the time.

"some". "Some" humans.

🧵 One of my favourite galleries is the Ateneum in Helsinki. It originated with the Finnish Art Society (1846) & opened to the public as the Ateneum In 1888. It is now the Finnish National Gallery & well worth visiting! [1]

Tomorrow's the rapture...

i'm going to be transitioning into a motivational quotes account...we all need a little encouragement in these trying times🥰

September 22nd. First day of Autumn, so I'm dutibound to post this....

I’m also wondering if Disney knows they can’t walk this back.

I think people who support fascism should be boycotted, but really? Who watches network television?

Ukulele is very easy on midlife joints. I have an acoustic and an electric ukulele with a pedalboard.

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

For each of the 1,000 days since my dad died and my years of being his carer ended, I have found comfort in understanding that his memory is a blessing to all who had the privilege of knowing him. #Alzheimers #dementia #gratitude

I honestly think that Russia and China don't care about whatever the discourse is online. Whatever damage they needed to do was done in the last several elections. But 2016 online political spaces? You could practically time it when people were clocking in, in Moldavia and St. Petersburg.

If you’re canceling subscription services with giant companies with ties to terrible people, you should think about replacing them with a library card. Many library systems give you access to physical media (some of which you can’t find on streaming!) as well as other great stuff.

Disney is amazing for gluten free. I’d rather stay home and eat buckwheat groats. #celiac #fafo

A bit of wishful thinking I see everywhere these days, maybe it's just an artifact of what does numbers on social media: People declaring that any given event / finding / breakthrough will be *the* tipping point in a larger trend. That just does not happen. Go read a history book.

Sounds, um, accurate?

Social media and regular media corporations have become so evil that I’m seriously considering limiting my movie and video watching to what I can get at my local library. #libraries

"What I can tell you is that in a case where the only way to get the vaccine is to lie, you ought to lie." I cosign this. Get out there and get that COVID booster if you can, and lie if you have to. It's the ethical thing to do religiondispatches.org/lying-to-sav...
