BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours. Johnson is abandoning his job to instead protect a convicted child sex predator

Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

At a time when so many publications are choosing paths of capitulation and/or condescension, it's important to celebrate (&, if possible, subscribe to) those who are doing the work. @bostonreview.bsky.social is definitely near the top of that list.

Weather app: “cooler tomorrow with a high of… ‘still too f-ing hot for this time of year!!’”

Fuck yeah

'out of the three mass shootings today'

Our peach tree is dropping peaches! So I made a crumble today. Here’s our SUPER simple recipe: 1c flour, 1cup white sugar, mix with one egg- sprinkle crumble over any fruit. Then melt one stick of butter and pour over the crumble. Bake at 350/375 for 50-60 mins

It’s almost October and today is my husbands first “rain day” from his landscaping job since May This drought has been rough in many ways #maine

Had a dream I caught someone who was running for school board-taking down Halloween decorations the week before HALLOWEEN I told them off and then made it known to everyone in the land (Not the biggest and best calling out of my life- but felt symbolic to the type of character they had)

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

I lay this at the feet of DOGE and all of their enablers.

In 1983, 50 companies controlled 90% of the U.S. media market. That number is now down to 5.

I am ready for fall temperatures and rain please!!! With love from Maine

Some killings you're allowed to joke about.

Jesus Christ.

Oh. Cool, cool, cool.

A second mass shooting of a homeless encampment in Minneapolis. Five more people died. Meanwhile, congress is working on passing the ability to jail homeless people for up to 30 days or charge them $500. It bans camping on public property. abcnews.go.com/US/people-hu...

Calling peoples' employers in a rage because their tributes to Robert Redford weren't horny enough

folks, I want to remind you that a ton of federal workers are about to get their last pay check at the end of this month and this stuff is going to get much worse

This is additionally problematic for those of us who want to get Novavax, which last I heard won’t be available for another week or so still (assuming it still will be made available).

It’s increasingly difficult to be “in community” with friends and neighbors who are too stressed and depressed to return text messages and won’t have constructive dialogue about how to stay connected and move fwd together This isolation feels like a benchmark win for fascism

I’m trying my best to be in community with people but what do you do when they’re rude (Rhetorical)

Found some time to start some new paintings today- opened up my gesso and it’s all dried out Sooo At least I had good intentions

Doing some light home demo projects with my husband and we’re listening to Billy Joel’s greatest hits after watching the doc (For context my husband grew up in Alaska in the 80’s me in NJ) Him: And THIS is also a Billy Joel song? Me: YES

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Kid left their computer in the back of the car this morning - tough lesson to learn but I know if I were to drive the 25 mins to school to drop it off… it might not be learned

Sounds like if you’re one of his constituents you should be flooding his office with this question- may he not know peace

Today is the birthday of cartoonist & illustrator Nell Brinkley (Sept. 5, 1886-Oct. 21, 1944). During her nearly four decade career in New York magazines & newspapers, she created the Brinkley Girl, a popular symbol of young women in the early 20th century.

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

Holy crap, NYT let Charles Munger Jr. write an op-ed opposing the California redistricting without disclosing that he's FUNDING the opposition to the California redistricting. I have 4 mailers he paid for in my house right now and that's just the beginning. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/o...

I’ve been told that “our screen time rule is bullshit” Happy parenting, happy back to school, happy September, happy days… happy

New Mexico is not messing around: "THIS ORDER supersedes any previous order, proclamation, or directives to the extent they are in conflict. This Public Order shall take effect immediately & remain in effect until such time as it automatically expires one year from the date of issuance..."

Your parents who keep sharing AI slop on Facebook are on thin ice with me. I don’t want to have to unfriend them but I might

It really is the worst kids in class tearing it all down because they know deep down they are the stupidest among us

Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today- because you might reach for the doorknob and pull your back and then you’re down for the count - Midlife proverb

Today on TikTok I got my first TSwift ad/video then followed by a Fox News video Blocked em both

Back to school in 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 f-ing heartbreaking, enraging and utterly avoidable. This is a choice our politicians make over and over again

Maxine Waters is 87 and Pelosi is 85 and…. I just…. I don’t think they’re even the oldest? #termlimits

From the Guardian…

I can’t justify spending $50 on myself, but sure I’ll spend that on a friend I get it, but still…

Today I join other cartoonists in action, solidarity and hope that these atrocities will end v soon. #CartoonistsForG4za

Got a different library card which gives me access to Libby (my own library only has cloud library) I’ve been consuming so many more books this summer - it’s been great!

Just got back from the grocery store where jam was almost $7 for a jar and I spent $10.50 on two farmers market tomatoes I’m not happy I ask myself everyday why we haven’t fully lost our $hit on our elected officials #costoflivingcrisis

I think we have a rooster in our new batch of chicks Every few weeks we hear a bird attempting a doodle-do and this morning it was very distinct and can no longer be brushed off

In the law books, this is called "False Imprisonment." In the history books, this is called "Jim Crow."

Took my kids to a lake today to continue to soak up the summer as my oldest starts high school soon…. HIGH SCHOOL Which is weird because I could have sworn I was just in high school

Fun night at the Portland Sea Dogs game tonight in #maine . My kids first time 🫣😅
