This is year two of bringing my hibiscus indoors. She just keeps blooming and growing even when everything in her environment changes. I like that, she makes me smile.

See the difference? 👀 #NoKings

People tell me if I don’t like Missouri, I should leave. But, it’s a nice day and the breeze is blowing. I’m sitting in the side-by-side watching my donkey get his hooves trimmed by a local farrier. I’m not leaving because of GOP authoritarinism. It’s my state too, and I’m tougher than they are…

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

Clearly this is not about making DC, or any of us, safer.

We’re spending a lot of time talking about Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. But don’t forget their victims. The survivors. Not all of them made it. At least two women connected to Epstein’s abuse have died by suicide. The real number may be higher. Jeffrey Epstein accuser, Maria Farmer, speaks out.

I'll always be a PBS kid

I wonder if Mitch McConnell assumed Americans who lost their healthcare would "get over it" because they will be dead.

This is dark

✅Illegal & expensive Tariff War ✅Illegal & callous decimation of the federal workforce. ✅Illegal invasion of Iran. REMIND ME, again… who are the “ILLEGALS?”

Malevolence will be his only legacy.

No more wars

Donald Trump bombed Iran tonight, not because they are about to have nuclear weapons (they are not), but because he needed a distraction from his tanking poll numbers and his deeply unpopular "Big Beautiful Bill." He doesn't care who gets killed, Iranians or Americans, to help HIM.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

The right wing and Fox launched a smear campaign against Newsom. In the past, he might’ve ignored it—but he’s seen how right-wing trolls work with Fox to create false narratives. So this time, Newsom responded immediately. No hesitation.

On Juneteenth, we celebrate Black freedom, resilience, culture, and the enduring strength of community across generations. We acknowledge our nation’s full history and the long, ongoing fight for freedom and justice for Black Americans.

Just be kind

Senator Padilla was driven violently to his knees–as if made to kneel before the authority of the executive–because the administration called his questions “disrespectful”. This should offend not just the other 99 Senators. It should offend the conscience of this country.

Wide awake!

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Now more than ever

Happy Pride Month to all my LGBTQ family and friends. I stand in support of your human rights every single day.

Sadly I did not know this for the first 55 years of my life. They do not teach you this. This is absolutely true. And we should honor all of them this Memorial Day and always 

Bodily autonomy is a human right. Full stop.
