Gosh I wish I could meet this man face to face.

I’m. So. Tired. I don’t just want you to pay attention to Chicago because I want you to understand our plight. I want you to see how hard people are fighting and know wtf you’re made of. We’re not just fighting for this place. This is for all of us.

SHE’LL BAN LINK BEFORE JESSE SINGAL??????

Getting “I am very smart”-ed by the doomers in my life is so fucking frustrating. Do you think my optimism is not a constant fight? That I’m uninformed and unprepared because I refuse to bemoan my fate?

four weeks from tomorrow! 🖤🐈‍⬛🖤🐈‍⬛🖤 poster by @sampaolini.bsky.social

Doomscroll break, my mother’s garden. 40 years of working on a thing really bears fruit (literally here).

I committed a Bluesky sin and reposted a ragebait asshole. I got got. But this isn’t my first shutdown. Last time my husband built a deck during an extended shutdown. This time I’m gonna make him actually rest. It’s been horrible for him.

I wish this was real, I’d fuck off and farm bougie shit for restaurants; fuck these morons.

When most of the OR agrees that yelling “Goddammit YourName” does not constitute swearing at someone.

The actual horror of hearing your toddler go “UH Oh!”

Lol ten bucks says my dad knows this guy, a bet no one who knows my dad will take. Also fuck yeah guys like this rule.

Jfc how do we as citizens investigate this? Is there a mass grave in Florida?

Ok but do Mormons get Raptured? Are they leaving too?

This is the kind of shit you write the villains doing for a game so that the really thick players understand who the bad guys are.

“Kid, asystole is not a constructive way to handle your anger.”

Today I walked off alone into an orchard to find pears. “Are you looking for pears?” I was asked shortly before a bunch of laughing children filled my bag with pears.

Charlie Kirk’s own words damn him better than I could do.

We’re at a level of shit where a kid with measles was in O’Hare last weekend. I only know because a friend was notified for contact tracing. But a kid with measles! In an international airport terminal! It should be news! Fuck you rfk jr!

Hey, good news, they can be stopped, they will be stopped, and you're going to help stop them. (This post is not about voting or calling your congressperson.)

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

This has been coming from the beginning. All major democracy-supporting NGOs and foundations have their legal complaints already drafted. And in time, perhaps not even much time, they will win their cases. What is needed most in the meantime is courage. Keep saying what you think, doing what you do.

The world is really cool. We can continue to make it even better. Doomerism is a lie.

I disturbed a possum heading out to my car this morning. Sorry buddy! Don’t sleep in the mulch pile by the driveway when there’s a really good brush pile out back. I won’t bother you there.

Gdi @support.bsky.team you’ve put Gretchen Felker-Martin in the penalty box again, haven’t you?

Good to know that I’ve done enough trauma that my response to the Charlie Kirk video is, “Welp probably not good.” I have seen too much gun trauma.

Kinda love some small town things - county office included a little note with a smiley face on a tax refund owed to me. I smiled.

So a group of trans folks in Portland are trying to secure funds for a property they can use to house homeless bipoc trans women and femmes as well as providing meals to the growing homeless population. Literally anything helps so please donate or spread the word! Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Looking at the majority of SCOTUS right now, “Nobody even wants to work anymore. They just be conservative, eat hot chip, and lie.”

ICE has just ramped up its presence in the BOSTON area. If you see something -- a raid, cars with masked agents, etc. -- call LUCE right away and record everything you can. Support your neighbors!

The South will die again.

The chorus of crickets, the change in pace of my child’s breathing as he falls asleep.

I’m just a nobody, but this is evil. We have to find a way to end this.

Is there a single hospital in America where the fucking administration doesn’t have their head up their asses?

This Labor Day weekend as we enjoy barbecues and picnics, let's remember the farm workers who labor so hard to put food on our tables. #WeFeedYou #LaborDay

Got jump scared by the Daniel Tiger episode about and had to leave the room so my kid didn’t see me crying. Definitely no residual trauma about that.

Watched the new Superman last night, and it was very enjoyable! Do not like shaky-cam for flying though. Best part was Mr. Terrific.

Maybe get on that before polio comes back. You’re the one in power! I’m just the asshole who sees all the sick kids.

US TRANS FRIENDS: Drop your gofundmes, venmos, whatever ways of supporting you you have, in the replies. Then go make sure you have plans with loved ones to deal with the worst. I love you all. We will get thru it CIS PEOPLE: Go through the replies and donate money to someone. Then reskeet.

I refuse to learn what my favorite podcasters look like.

Hate to be callous, but- welcome to being Native. You live your entire life with the fact that 99% of everyone in the US, including yourself probably, is blood-related to people who burned your nation to the ground to get land and gold, and you just have to *live* with that.

Emotionally destroyed/validated by some long dead dude’s poem Mother and Son (learning about William Morris and reading poetry thanks to the zines from the fine folks at @tangledwilderness.bsky.social ). Its so hard/good to have a little one; I guess it always has been.

Here’s better reporting about that which seems to be missing from most U.S. reporting

When your obviously Fox-watching surgeon (“Chicago is so dangerous!”) has one fancy state-sponsored trip to China and gushes about how it’s so safe and clean and nice and starts telling me the talking points from his “tour guide” about Chinese history and national character.

I don’t think I have much to contribute in the Takes department, just in the Life Can Be Good posting department. My MiL is holding the kiddo while my FiL is doing dishes. Help came when it was needed.

Ope, actually watching wrestling again, and I am being served Bisexual Ruler vs Old Man Yaoi. #AEW

Been telling myself I should work on my cardio, just in case. I still should but like, at a 5k fun run pace I could be lapping these dorks.

Let me just extend an invitation that if you need to touch grass, I have a lot of good outdoors to share.

It irks me when someone posts a vanilla “Hear me out.”

This fucking rules.
