Pretty f*cked up that the world is feeling the effect of our ridiculous lack of gun control laws here in the USA.

Forget-me-not 🩵 #art #photography #flowers

Damn.

I really hoped this would become THE place to be. To get away from those other places. Maybe I just haven't invested enough energy in making that happen. How is everybody feeling about the various sites right now?

Loving these December days in #LosAngeles when we can have breakfast on the restaurant patio.

Gorgeous 82° December day in #LosAngeles

Never forget! We must fight for what we want! Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. 📷 I took this photo last year from a boat at Pearl Harbor on the way to the USS Arizona Memorial.

What's with the new followers who have no profile picture, profile, or posts. Bots? Regardless, they are blocked.

Glad to join ya!

The entire freaking USA government ended use of that word in 2010 because it's so offensive. He is so evil.

Tennessee people, vote for this lady this week. She's cool and she puts the country perilously close to having a single check and/or balance.

How about a community garden?

Timeline brightener. My favorite colors. 🩷💜

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Watch this.

Mother Earth is our home, not a pile of resources that we can exploit and profit from financially!

Who would have thought we'd have MAGA, traitor Democrats?

Dear Democratic Senators: if you vote for this selling out of the ACA it will be the end of your careers. Depend upon it. You are there to defend this country against Trump and the fascists, not collude with them. If you become Quislings, you will forever REMAIN Quislings

@schumer.senate.gov and the dems voting with him need to be removed, physically if they vote to cave. @democrats.senate.gov @senatebudget.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social youtu.be/9PgndvR-J3Q?...

At this point, it’s utterly bonkers that any Democrat would trust any Republican to negotiate in good faith.

Call and tell your senators, "Don't you dare cave!!!" A promise from the GOP means nothing. 202 224-3121 is the switchboard. They will connect you with your senators.

If I were to defy a court order, I'd be in jail, not building a ballroom. Reopen government, swear in Adelita Grivala, release the Epstein Files, restore healthcare subsidies, and fund SNAP.

Even IF I hadn't stopped shopping at Target in January, THIS right here would make me quit.

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

Taps sign

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath? Character isn't something you tell people about. It's something you live.

Did the Sandwich Guy just break BlueSky?! 🤣 🤣 😭 🙌 He’s FREE!!! 🥖

Says it all.

OUR Reps are still working.

Is that coffee I smell? No it’s Democracy

When we fight, we win. Now we keep going. We the people are the power. (And when Dick Cheney stepped aside this morning, we knew we'd already won.)

Fifteen minutes, California! If you're in line by 8 pm, stay there because you do get to vote!! Please say #yeson50

#YesOn50 Vote today! Drop ballot at box or vote in person. If in line at 8 pm you get to vote. VP Kamala Harris from the #GOTV rally on Saturday.

#YesOn50 Vote today! Gov Gavin Newsom, TX Rep Jasmine Crockett, Brian Tyler Cohen, LA Mayor Karen Bass from the rally Saturday. #GOTV

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Here for Gov Gavin Newsom's Get Out the Vote rally at the Los Angeles Convention Center. #gotv

Let's good! #gotv

Medicare for All would save $450B a year. Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity. Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall. It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

📣 California: Vote now. There's only ONE thing on the ballot. Fast & easy. YES on 50!

Weird. Not paying people who are working while continuing to pay House Republicans, who quit working weeks ago. Very weird.

MAGA is trying to steal congressional seats in Texas & other GOP states. California, YOU have the power to give ALL Americans a fighting chance for a fair Congress. Vote YES on Prop 50 — for health care, for fair elections & for our democracy. For us ALL. #YesOn50 #USDemocracy

I want a Congress that represents we the people, not voters who represent the Congress that selected them. That’s why I voted #YesOnProp50. If you are registered to vote in CA, did you?

Just another day in this hellhole we call Los Angeles, California.
