More #pride and less prejudice. More love and less hate.

Crocheting granny squares and thinking about mixing knitting with crochet when I am done. Waiting for more dark blue to add another round to larger square. Still have 15 more to “grow” of the smaller square. 🧶

Resistence is NOT futile

I didn’t want this to happen. I voted for the smart black lady.

They’re going to keep pushing until something stops them.

Thank you for whoever made this. They have their assignment.

It’s just on WTF moment after the other …

Dr. Oz is added to the sh!*^t show circus, approved to lead Medicare and Medicaid.

In a a world of Pete Hegseths, be a Pete #Buttigieg.

The 5 things I did this week email … what’s on your list Pete Hegseth?

5th day of a job that she is not qualified to do. And clearly she lacks the education and experience to serve this office.The Department of #Education is screwed. And it’s going to take generations to recover.

Thousands of US Department of Agriculture employees, including food inspectors and disease-sniffing dog trainers, remain out of work, leaving food to rot in ports and pests to proliferate.

“She describes [Zuckerberg] as a cross between a truculent teen and a toddler: he doesn’t like to get up before midday, even to meet prime ministers, and his obsequious colleagues feel obliged to let him beat them at board games.” Sigh. The tech bros are all the same.

🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump is claiming dictatorial power, declaring in a social media post that the pardons issued by former President Biden are null and void—using lies as his justification.

I predict Schumer’s book tour won’t last long. He probably wrote his book hoping it will be a part of his legacy. Nope. Now it’s “WTF Chuck?”. People’s memories are not great or perfect but they always remember how you made them feel. Schumer broke our trust, failed to lead and betrayed us.

Collaborators with the fascists.

If you are a Southern California person upset about @schumer.senate.gov ‘s craven betrayal of our country, the theatre his book tour will be at on 3/23 is the Moss Theatre. Their phone number is 310-828-5582

These are the senators who collaborated with the GOP. Schumer Fetterman Cortez Masto Durbin King Shaheen Gillibrand Schatz Hassan Peters Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

Thank you, Speaker Nancy Pelosi

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

Here are my color combinations so far for the colorful granny squares. Colors are magenta pink, Christmas green, white and navy blue. One of my cats has decided that it’s has a calming energy. 🧶

Playing with brighter colors with the next set of granny squares. I still don’t know how to read the charts. This #knitter is learning #crochet #grannysquares with YouTube. Crochet definitely eats more yarn than knitting but it’s satisfying to finish a square. 🧶

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933. I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

At @standupforscience.bsky.social and the signs are statistically significantly excellent

The ability to control mass party opinion this directly is unlike anything I’ve really seen in my time covering politics.

This #knitter has finally found her #crochet groove with learning granny squares. Finished a 90 inch scarf with neutral colors accented with brown and blue. Did a join as you go almond beige border around each square. Finished with a two row single crochet border in brown. 🧶 it’s keeping me sane.

#Resistance in song and voice - those who know their history will understand the bravery of this moment, as they sung #LesMis to the “leaders” in gilded cages. Thank you #USArmyChorus youtu.be/pIQh_5dZUwI?...

Currently appearing at UK bus-stops. More of this pointed ridicule, please.

Sheesh.

It seems there was a dinner at the WH where a military choir serenaded the orange turd and his guest with a rendition of One Day More from Les Miserables, and the ignorant fools loved it. This is what happens when you don’t read. People mock you to your face. 😹

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

Dead people don’t receive social security. Funeral homes are following protocol with Form SSA-721. Once filed, all benefits and payments end. Musk-rat and his minions are clueless and lying. #socialsecurity #deadpeople #SSA

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social: The biggest hustle is the fact that Republicans are planning to hurt everyday Americans by doing things like destroying Medicaid... they want to pass massive tax cuts for their billionaire donors and wealthy corporations and stick working class Americans with the bill.
