Hung out in East Greenwich to see the Throwing Muses at the Odeum. I had to pop into to my favorite RI bar, the Greenwich Lounge. Super cool to see @steveahlquist.bsky.social out in the wild.

Dudes, what’s Trump putting in the gas? Dubai chocolate?

A peer of Vic Mellor’s. Scrape the surface of Jan 6rs’ pardoned lives and child porn arises. A party of projection. www.wwlp.com/news/crime/a...

The crowds were huuuge, without MAGA in sight or smell. North Kingstown and Providence, Rhode Island. With all the money I’m making protesting, I should have gotten a manicure!

Can’t wait for midterms. Democrats have learned a lot and will sweep. Immigration, pomposity, and playing nice were our Achilles heel. Let’s go!

The North Kingstown Democrats hosted a sweet Protest Signapolooza party at the Rhode Island Computer Museum last night. All money raised went to the NK Food Pantry. This is democracy. While MAGA fights on X, progressives get busy.

I haven’t had this much fun since the last snowstorm! Keeping it weird in Rhode Island.

From Brown University @studentsdemandaction.org chapter about another senseless act of gun violence In Rhode Island.

Why is the Rhode Island GOP so afraid of inclusive voting? rhodeislandcurrent.com/2026/02/05/l...

Another day, another ICE murder. This isn’t an America to which my cat, or I, pledge allegiance. Alex Pretti gave more to America than Trump.

may hate a lot right now, but I love the snow. I wonder if Alex Pretti and Renee Good did, too. How much money will their families receive for their senseless murders? Republicans are pro-life, yet don’t care when an ICU and mom are executed.

Someone check my pulse: Saw “Marty Supreme” and thought it was alright, too long, and wanted to pop all of Marty’s fake blackheads. Meh. variety.com/2026/artisan...

DYK that upper middle class, college educated folks can drink themselves to an early grave? Our grandparents built a small business and I watch many kin spiral into addiction and mental health sadness. I don’t think we knew anything other than transactional love. RIP Brian.

My cousin Brian died from alcoholism yesterday. As toddlers, we were bewildered to learn we’d never marry. He loved pro wrestling, comic books, hockey and music. I picked him up from every rehab. We’d plan for his future and split a smoke. Brian Morrissey, I love you.

My cousin Brian died yesterday. Clever, informed, and polite, Brian was 49 and died 4 months after his mom. Alcohol ravaged him for 30 years. He just came into an inheritance that I thought would solve it all. I was very wrong and don’t understand addiction.

I’ll admit when I am wrong: Rep. Chippendale did well. Governor McKee did very well. But these maritime drone dudes stole the whole show. Bravo. Stars were born. Tell me more. ASL pros, too. Super animated.

“Erratic Trump tariffs.” Indeed McKee. Rhode Island State of the State.

“Let me be clear: we will not back down.” @govdanmckee.bsky.social about fighting Trump administration for the Rhode Island Revolution Wind Project.

I use Workday five days per week and have never had an issue. I dig it. Anyone else? rhodeislandcurrent.com/2026/01/09/s...

Rhode Island, have you been to Ragged Island in Portsmouth yet? I do believe I’ve located a new happy place.

It’s very telling who is almost applauding a 37-year old woman’s unnecessary death. The last words she heard were “fu$king b&tch.” Just like rape, republicans blame the victim.

I wish Prince was still alive. Minneapolis needs him.

Are we pretending we don’t have eyes? In what America is this considered self-defense? www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/07/n...

Gun violence is gun violence no matter who pulls the trigger. @momsdemand.bsky.social

Let’s make progress, progressively!

This Jan. 6, the Rhode Island State House was alive with red to ignite the 2026 legislative session. When lost, always look for the @MomsDemand. Let’s do progressively thangs.

Again in 2026, advocates’ voices will be heard and our words read! It’s a calmer year for RI safe gun advocates without a big law or bill in the works, but we celebrate our recent wins and support other progressive causes. @momsdemand.bsky.social www.providencejournal.com/picture-gall...

“And without major gun safety legislation on the horizon this year — at least, not yet — their policy differences might remain more veiled.” Will Ciccone and Lawson work well together? Good read about 2026 legislative goals. rhodeislandcurrent.com/2026/01/02/r...

I will be at the Rhode Island State House on Tuesday (and many more). Showing up for humanity and @momsdemand.bsky.social, NK Democrats, @ridwomenscaucus.bsky.social, and I love me some RI Atheists, too. The world’s watching, let’s be seen.

“We’re going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition,” Trump says. He can’t run the country he was elected (ew) to lead, how’s he going to run another? www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/03/w...

I just got back after a beautiful family trip to Jamaica and the Trump dump is at it again. We just buried 2025 and THIS is 2026? Rhode Island, we MUST fight back together in 2026!

So if we’re just grabbing presidents now, can someone come grab mine?

In Jamaica, vacationing and talking politics. I have had many amusing conversations about Rhode Island’s existence, tariffs, America’s expensiveness, and Trump.

Today we mourn Donovan, a Parkland school shooting survivor. His suicide illustrates the inability for children to fully “survive” something so traumatizing. It’s the guns. And the horror of it all. people.com/parkland-sch...

‘Scattered across campus, Ella Cook’s friends were tracking her location using a phone app. It showed her still inside Barus and Holley; maybe she dropped her phone in the chaos of the escape, they told themselves.’ www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/20/m...

See something, say something. And now we see what inaction leads to. How heartbreaking. We all know custodians and cafeteria workers are the heart of campus. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/22/m...

Count me out of the Rhode Island alt-right, book-banning MAGA cultists spreading hateful conspiracy theories about a mass shooting. Don’t they have a holiday pig roast to attend, with cigars and bad fashion?

Wake up, after an unusually sound sleep, to Rob Reiner’s murder at his son’s hands. I went to the Brown University vigil last night, saddened but relieved that the shooter was caught. He isn’t. When does anything get better? Be well, pals; these are sad times.

“I think it’s worth it. It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God given rights. That’s a prudent deal. It is rational.” Charlie Kirk (1993-2025)

Almost seven hours ago, this man with a clumsy gait and a mission appeared on Hope Street, apparently leaving the Brown University shooting. If you know this dude, you’ll know his walk. Watch. Report. Also, there MUST be more videos. youtu.be/vkLf80oxe-Q

Rhode Island, stay safe. It’s never too soon to share that we don’t have to live this way. www.browndailyherald.com/article/2025...

It’s Representative Seth Magazine’s world today and I’m lucky to live in it.

Sen. Alana DiMario is the kind of leader Rhode Island needs; same for Sen. Bridget Valverde. Each think and act outside the RI bruh/male/country-clubbing Democrat rules of engagement. Rhode Island voters shouldn’t get lost in the drama. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/08/m...

I am hoping that the Providence College kids suffering from frightening overdoses get better soon. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/07/m...

What do MAGA kids watch at home, on television? I am genuinely curious. How can MAGA moms be behind cutting and gutting PBS programming? www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/07/b...

“James Diossa has committed $60 million in state deposits to help first-time homebuyers secure 30-year mortgages under a pilot program unveiled Thursday.” More of this, please. rhodeislandcurrent.com/2025/12/04/r...

Took a vacation today to chaperone the North Kingstown High School's trip to PPAC's marvelous ‘Water for Elephants.' Then shimmied on over to the State House for a @momsdemand.bsky.social event and spied the Christmas tree. The youth, PPAC, and safe gun laws are alright.

Riddle me this: Erika Kirk is the president of Turning Point USA and was on ‘Southern Charm’ a few years ago, but is talking smack about career women? Help me make this sense.

Thanks to @thevalleybreeze.bsky.social for sharing this story. How can we help this soup kitchen continue, RI? “Ask Jesus what he would do, says Pawtucket Soup Kitchen Director Adrienne Marchetti” www.valleybreeze.com/news/pawtuck...
