Now listening to @jsinptgrw.bsky.social talking Ministry, “Land of Rape and Honey” and even “With Sympathy” 🥀 with @baxie102.bsky.social

Last night while dining on a restaurant patio I saw a middle-grade kid point-out a praying mantis to a teen kid, who promptly thumped it off the window. It looked injured on the ground. I yelled, “HEY! Don’t do that! You are a thousand times bigger than that bug. Why would you do that?!” 🧵

The admin takes a page from the New Deal but pays skilled soldiers to do work they could pay homeless and unemployed people to do at a fraction of the cost. When it comes to eliminating waste, fraud & abuse, in the words of Inigo Montoya, "I don't think that word means what you think it means"

Vaccines are safe and effective. RFK Jr. isn’t.

My last living musical hero is still my hero but unfortunately no longer living. RIP to the great, great Mr. Tom Lehrer.

Disappointed in the new #Superman movie as he, in fact, does NOT have speakers three stories high with woofers made of steel. Nor does anyone rock his butt with a 12 inch cut called Disco Kryptonite. Fake news.

Crazy story: yesterday night as we left a restaurant in Sacramento, we saw a man crouching under my car looking for a kitten who had run under, into the engine undercarriage. We opened the hood & used our cell lights to locate the cat. We got a broom from the restaurant to coax the cat out. 🧵

Reminder that I AM LATINA AND PROUD. I am the product of immigration - my grandmother was undocumented and entered the country from Mexico as a baby. My mother was a fierce, gorgeous Latina woman of Mexican and Spanish descent.

So the president creates problems with his myopic and ignorant leadership, then wants applause for reversing the plans. It’s basically Munchausen syndrome by president. 😂 #whatamaroon 🐰

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

What @terrymoranabc.bsky.social said was entirely true. But the White House asking for his dismissal is *exactly” how fascism works: silence dissenters with threats. #ABCNews caving is how fascism continues when organizations lack backbones and the commitment to truth.

I’d suggest that American women unite and go Lysistrata on all this wannabe GIJoeICE BS, but I think many of those guys are already 1ncels.

Congrats to John Quintos, profiled on @nbcbayarea.com. When in San Francisco check out Cento Coffee (140 Sutter) for excellent coffee & great vintage scooter vibes. www.nbcbayarea.com/celebrating-...

Jinx took a look at the C.A. Thayer docked on Vallejo’s Mare Island.

Actually he only cares what 1% of the country thinks of him.

San Francisco Civic Center is plump with patriotism. The People won’t stand for Fascism. @indivisible.org #HandsOff

Celebrated my dog’s 5th #GotchaDay with a homemade cake and mini party. Jinx is the goodest boy.

Back at it battling this B.S. #teslatakeover

30 minutes here makes a huge difference in my outlook for the day.

LFG! #teslatakedown GLOBAL DAY OF ACTION March 29 Every showroom in America 500+ around the world Let's send these techno-fascists, broligarchs and old fashioned Nazis a message loud and clear. NO WAY Plan an action or find one near you: teslatakedown.com

WH press secty #KarolineLeavitt forgets (probably never knew) who bankrolled a big part of the American Revolution and why we don’t use the spellings “colour” or “aluminium.” She might want to checkout the Michael Douglas show “Franklin” on Apple+ for an easy & entertaining primer.

NEW: We went to the heart of Silicon Valley to hear what Elon Musk's former community had to say about the tech oligarch takeover. From the frontline of the growing Tesla protest movement and the epicenter of tech bro wealth, this is what Palo Alto wants America to know about their former neighbor:

Over 100 people protesting at the #Vallejo #teslatakedown today. Billionaires value their bank accounts and egos, not the health and wellbeing of the people.

Rich Black knows where it’s at… #NoNazis

Bravo to @maddow.msnbc.com for advocating for her fellow @msnbc.com colleagues. The new programming changes will not improve the variety or diversity of the voices on the network, and will undermine its trust.

Big Brother’s Watching

The truth. These organizations weren’t created for “shareholder value” but to serve the advancement of all Americans.

Although I have a large collection of stationery & greeting cards, I just realized I don’t have enough that are appropriate for sending to those who are suffering loss. I’ve hit some sad milestone.

Thank you firefighters and first responders!

“Hey! The good news is I found that Bobby Sherman single you’ve been searching for for years. Well, the bad news is…”
