Reading Virginia Giuffre’s book, Nobody’s Girl. It’s heartbreaking & we need to see the Epstein Files NOW.

Gig Harbor, WA. 12k population. At least 4500 at today’s joyful protest

I’m an elder at this point and my epiphany for today is: if you love someone: never leave anything left unsaid.

I believe all these women. The abuse happened. Powerful men & women are involved. The scandal is big enough it should shake the foundations of society. We must not tolerate child abuse, sexual predators, trafficking or elected officials hiding involvement, no matter what. Release the documents.

What is the White House hiding?

I am America. Mayflower descendant on my father's side, and of 20th century Finnish immigrants on my mother's side. And everything in between.

We grew by a thousand. Gig Harbor WA count at 4500!

Sometimes a dog with a ball can save your day

😳 what's going on here 🤷‍♂️

202 479-3000 call the Supreme Ct. Let them hear us before they hear arguments about ending birthright citizenship in May.

My mother wrote my name on my birth certificate starting with a C - she taught me to write it with a K. I have two married names & use my 1st married name as middle for the kids who have that name. SS card & DL have K spelling. I may never get to vote again.

A friend suggested: Here’s the number for the Supreme Court so we can ask that they respect the ruling of federal court judge Paula Xinis. PLEASE CALL the Supreme Court. They must act independently for what is right. 202-479-3000.

Gig Harbor, WA never saw such a turnout for Democracy.

Gig Harbor WA. Pop 12 k. 2000 here today

The SAVE Act is a poll tax. Over 69 million women would have to get new IDs to vote under the SAVE Act—all of which, except military IDs, cost money. As @mcclellan.house.gov explained, whether it’s $1,000 or 1￠, no one should have to pay to vote.

Carney: The system of global trade anchored on the United States.. is over. Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over. The 80 year period when the United States embraced the mantle of economic leadership… is over.

Post everyday until investigated: “He was very effective. And he knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. So it was pretty good, pretty good. So thank you to Elon,” trump revealed.

Listening to Doris Kearns Goodwin’s An Unfinished Love Story. Fabulous audio book. Original speeches from JFK, MLK, LBJ - totally inspiring especially LBJ’s civil rights speeches. The Great Society built everything the current occupant is destroying. The diction in speeches balm for the soul.

He may have had dates with men but he doesnt have a mandate.

There is an arrogance mixed in with the ignorance that is dangerous. ~ Adam Schiff

This affidavit, filed by a former Social Security employee in one of the DOGE cases, reveals a shocking exposure of personal info to DOGE operatives & possible compromise of parts of the system. Everyone should read this. Start at para 9. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

They want to keep it quiet, so you know what to do.

I just had fifteen women at my house to gather, talk about the assault on our country & figure how we can make a difference together. Every single woman was ready to do whatever it takes.

Can someone explain to me why most articles I click on Bluesky go to the absolutely unreadable Comicsans site? It’s driving me crazy.

We need a break. It’s my birthday & I received a gift from a childhood friend of 64 years. Another friend who saw the photo said, “ oh, watch your Willie grow,” Good night Bluesky laugh for just a second.

from The Populist… Republican Sen. Mike Lee of Utah went further in a post on X, saying, “Social Security [is] a ripoff for most Americans compared to essentially any legitimate retirement investment.” So it begins…the best antipoverty program the gov ever invented for seniors. Hands off!

Overthrowing the government is not an official act.

Visualizing a happier, more just world is a direct assault on the forces that are trying to break your heart….Ursula Le Guin says, the most powerful thing you can do is imagine how things could be different…What if? The above from Never Say You Can’t Survive by Charlie Jane Anders.

Your first assignment. All of us - FLIP NY 21, FL 1 and FL 6. Those voters don’t want to have a billionaire take away their social security and health care at the same time. Post cards? Phone calls? Who has lists of Rs & Ds?

Please, everyone, drop what you’re doing and read this:

hey question, is this bad?

This tribalism sucks. Can we please get back to reasonable discussion of policies that help us move forward as a country.

Relax, breathe & look at tonight’s sunset in Gig Harbor, WA.

Meanwhile on that other site containing an F & a B, they automatically had my account follow the new chief idiot. I had to search for the account and then block him. At least that part felt good.

Not going to post it, but the just released official portrait of the #1 goon looks ridiculous. It’s like he’s advertising the next season: Madman in the White House.

Instead of him doing time, we are all now sentenced to four years.

An important read to understand how dismantling institutions is just the beginning. Resistance must include anti-conversion therapy too.

What matters anymore? They certified a convicted felon for President of the United States of America. There were ways around it - say the 14th Amendment, but they decided instead to let it go without accountability. What ever he does now just doesn’t matter.

I just cancelled my Washington Post subscription. The cartoon incident was a bridge too far. The corporate ownership of media (especially in this case, Jeff Bezos) has crushed the 4th Estate. We will survive, but diminished.

Interesting. 1) 2025, itself is a square, i.e. 45 x 45 = 2025 2) It's a product of two squares, i.e. 9² x 5² = 2025 3) It is the sum of 3-squares, i.e. 40²+ 20²+5²= 2025 4) It's the sum of cubes of all digits, from 1 to 9, i.e.1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+ 6³+7³+8³+9³= 2025. This is our YEAR 2025 😀

Watching the Seahawks game I am being driven crazy by the Amazon arrow built into every dissolve. I’ve shot, edited & produced a fair amount of TV/video and understand subliminal seduction, but this is gross. It’s like he needs us to keep him in our thoughts. More money: more money.

I had a remarkable experience this morning while out with my dog. As an eagle flew over me, I put my arms out to fly with him. He swooped, I did too. I imitated him as he circled over me three or four times. He stayed right over me and I got to soar. We danced. I was honored.
