SHAME ON SENATOR LISA MURKOWSKI & MAGA/GOP! “While we have worked to improve the present bill for Alaska, it is not good enough for the rest of our nation — and we all know it.” ~Lisa Murkowski She buckled under a fake deadline. Instead, she should have declared herself an independent and voted NO

Well played, sir. #NoKingsDay

Hi.

@daniellepafunda.bsky.social’s new book and Along The Road Everyone Must Travel and a little fire in the propane stove and maybe popcorn and pomegranates. Saturday perfection.

Following the Stillaguamish River.

Early spring morning in the plant hospital.

Matching up jars and lids so I can be ready to go with the strawberries appear. Worried for our farmers out here.

The whales don’t want you to look at them your boats are not welcome yesterday they put the dogs out but I said dogs ducks ducks docks @rebeccaloudon.bsky.social #poem #NaPoWriMo bloofbooks.com/2025/04/04/a...

This cat has a spare leg.

ALA is deeply concerned by reports that IMLS is sending notices to libraries claiming to cancel grants that are required by law. This harmful action will disrupt libraries' ability to serve their communities. Tell Congress to protect library funding: bit.ly/CallCongressForLibraries #ForOurLibraries

GO CORY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump fucking with The Department of Education and Medicare, are this man’s most craven acts so far. Sure. Attack children and the elderly—the most vulnerable people in our country, you scum, you vile coward.

Squirrel ate his breakfast on my gargoyle’s head. That’s it. That’s my entire weekend thus far.

I bought a new violin case the first new case I’ve had in 30 years. It’s blue velvet in honor of David Lynch. I also bought some fancy pants French rosin because come on what else was I gonna do?

This cat stuck her tongue out at me this morning all I did was say hello. Jeeze Louise.

Watching the storm roll in from the east. The wind matches the noise inside my head. Good morning from my island where the moon is waxing and the tides are rising. Just like America.

Black cat love. She’s adorable and getting old. Oh Jupiter queen of my heart. #caturday #blackcatlove

This morning in the redrum kitchen: chocolate chocolate chocolate and espresso sourdough bread.

March song.

Hey kids! I have a new post on my substack link up top. Thank you in advance for reading and also thank you in advance for heaping me with love and praise. Kisses, Becky

No goddamn internet or television today. My brain is on fire with horrible. Instead I’m going to bake a triple chocolate sourdough bread and read then todder about in my forest looking for signs of spring like the old woman I am. That box is where they put unruly children at my beach. #CamanoIsland

March. “In like a lion, out like a lion eating another lion.” — Dwight K. Schrute

Fog rolling in so Whidbey Island is hidden. My beach is empty now but it’s very crabby during May. Boating season. Ugh. I don’t like to share can you blame me? Perfect day for a picnic.

I rescued these feral kits when they were 8 wks old. I had never raised a feral cat before. They’re 6 yrs now. Hal imprinted on me and Wolf imprinted on my son. They’ve never seen other humans cause they run away and hide which is smart I think I’ll start doing it. Just kidding! I’ve always done it.

Early morning in the redrum kitchen. I was watching the latest episode of Severance and I had to walk out here for a bit because Severance was scaring the crap out of me. It’s fantastic but *shivers*.

In search of the smallest beauty to offset the doom.

Coffee on the deck with Beck. First of the season. That may or may not be a Christ-messy cup but we’re still on the verge. I went to the Skagit River yesterday and everything was so green it made my heart bleed. Finding joy in the small things. Love to you all you fiery poets witches and teachers. ❤️‍🔥

With kindle changes and this guy saying what can and can't be said in the WP opinion section, with people pushing to ban queer books I am sincerely concerned that my work and that of other queer + BIPOC writers is going to disappear. Idk buy queer books. Support indie store. Things don't look good.

it’s happening. bending the knee. MSNBC reportedly cancels Joy Reid show in reshuffle at liberal network ReidOut is being cancelled as part of a lineup shuffle being helmed by the network’s new president, Rebecca Kutler www.theguardian.com/media/2025/f...

It’s a bit windy this morning so I got up and wrote to both my state senators to ask the what they’re going to do about the tiny king and his chainsaw wielding jester. I reminded them that I’m a senior citizen who votes who’s worried about Medicare Medicaid and Social Security as well as education.

As to be expected of MAGA snowflakes.

I am so glad to be out of winter. My front yard and the wisteria vine on my porch. It smells like mud and trees and the best time you ever had at summer camp. Keep fighting children. #resist and #fuckthepatriarchy Love, Becky

43° and raining a perfect spring day for a Seattle kid born and raised. Port Orchard on Whidbey Island this morning.

Hi.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty.

Sun through my turtle vine. That’s it. That’s all that’s in my head. That and #fuckthepatriarchy
