Clouds at the beach.

It was so purple I just had to take its picture but it wouldn’t stop moving in the wind.

Good morning.

Stop messing with the sky, dude.

Can’t be sure, but I may be on the other side of this cold. It’s only been six weeks. 😑

Funny little sunset with the light sky.

I woke up from a good nap an hour ago and it still feels delicious.

Dahlia of the day💛💖

This is me, doing my best.

This is part of the reason I started @resistanceschool.bsky.social .. not only to get around the political repression around teaching about race. But also to be free of AI colonization. We need to get back to the essence of learning together in groups. With other humans!

May your timeline be filled with wildlife cams.

Support mutual aid. Support solidarity. Stay away from discourse. Refuse to be overwhelmed by things you can't control. Take care of yourself and those around you, let them return the favor when you need it. Don't give up. Don't let your capacity be drained for nothing.

Good night.

Everything is so much and when Doctors Without Borders leaves you know it’s really bad.

It is, far and away, the most challenging thing I’ve encountered since entering the academy. And that is saying a lot. I might be working on this but I keep putting it aside because I’m not medicated enough to describe how demoralizing it all is.

This is just my personal observation, but people who have had a loosening grip for some time are letting go: they are letting go of life and sanity and those prone to unleash violence are doing so.

We are a government ruled by viral video fiat now. You aren't even allowed to research which viral video has whipped the regime into a mania and how they came to believe it, because the research of the systems themselves is viewed as "censorship." This how you end up randomly invading Portland.

He had to sign a fucking contract where he said he won’t joke about the country, the government, the royals, or any religion lol www.avclub.com/riyadh-comed...

This week is shaping up to be weirder than I could possibly have imagined.

Huh.

"We refuse to go about our normal lives, or to allow normalcy to exist, while our beloved neighbors are stolen. We are living in opposition to fascism, capitulation and complicity, however dangerously, and we are doing it the only way we can—together."

Been said, but wow the ads pitched to me are for a caricature of liberal boomer and there is very little for me there. Even mentioning it makes me concerned that I’ll be mistaken for one or both by you, reader.

Holy crap I did so much. Still working on getting my own needs met when I have to prioritize others first.

Rest in Power Assata Shakur.

#poetry. Delighted to receive this in today's mail! Thank you, @mitchnobis.bsky.social !

Weirdest little weather pattern, but I’ll take it.

No.

The Altadena Community Garden was a rare shared space for the neighborhood. Its members are determined to save it, through hard work and ingenious amendments. civileats.com/2025/09/22/a...

They pepper sprayed us after this. We washed our faces and are back to singing we shall overcome. They’ll never win.

No maternal care, no care for families of children, no care for trans teens, no care for high-support needs neurodivergent adults including seniors, no care for people in detention: who did they take? no care for workers only a care that people work. As punishment. The mentality is all punitive.

reposting with alt text because I think the choice to include homophobia and transphobia in particular here is actually very much worth drawing attention to. nuns emphatically stating that those “do not reflect the qualities of a saint” is a very clear callout of Cardinal Dolan

Contractors were installing something in my home so my home smells like men.

Everything is falling apart. The sky is pretty: pink flowers against the gray. I was eating an ice cream so didn’t pull out my phone. Someone I thought wouldn’t do it tried to get me to rat out another someone. That’s all I think I want to say on that subject except that they were smooth about it.

The guy who works the register has real style.

Is this for real? Let it be real.

I dunno; I feel like this day could get wild.

Who can’t sleep 🙋🏽‍♀️
