Thunder snow? That’s new.

Something about this morning light.

My mom saved my prom dress. It’s so completely 80’s and so not who I am (my wardrobe is mostly black) but I felt like a princess in it then and even a woman more comfortable in tatoos needs to wear a hoop skirt once in her life, I suppose. I’ll take it to Goodwill now but first proof that it fits.

Crockett: This is not what we should be doing. I don’t even know why we’re fighting with Greenland. We’re fighting with Greenland, Canada, and Mexico—yet we’re in love with Putin?!

God I’m so tired of ‘swallowing hard’ to quelch my rage. But this beautiful and timely piece by Kat Meads “Un-selfish-ing” in our Good for You 82 reminds you of a lost concept that we are in dire need of presently. Read it in Good for You 82! www.roifaineantpress.com/post/un-self...

Just a reminder: nobody asked for this.

The boy is out in his own! My last one. Can I walk around naked now?

Post a beach photo

May you take up space, breathe the air,and feel sun. Everything else is distraction.

I used to say how much I love people. But nothing feels real anymore accept when I’m out in the cold woods with no other human in sight. What an absolute shit show. I hold out hope that through our collective efforts we can scrape the remnants of what’s left off our shoes and make something good.

Just showed the latest ‘HeGetsUs’ Super Bowl ad to Jesus and Johnny Cash and they’re both freaking PISSED.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

I love the expression “up in arms”. I’m going to be there for a while I think.

Importantly, these are *civil* actions under the Privacy Act of 1974, i.e. individuals can file suit and Trump can’t pardon defendants.

There are things they cannot do. We have to stop listening to them. They only have power if we give it to them.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus while vowing to call Trump's trade war bluff on CNN just now, "This isn't gunboat diplomacy (laughs). I mean, this is like an Al Capone shakedown in his syphilis phase."

Oh hey! Happy Monday! What fresh hell awaits you today? Dance anyway.#hope

This has replaced Live Laugh Love for me.

Sometimes your cousin bond is stronger than most. Post a pic of your family members that you love- given how our political climate is dividing us.

Choosing to be happy today in spite of reality 🤣 #anybodyoutthere

Evangelicals overwhelmingly chose Ronald Reagan over Jimmy Carter — a literal Sunday school teacher. There is no reason to think they will ever return to sanity…

Ahoy mateys. About that time again. Matey 80 is live now. Tell your favorite shipwrecked sailor. www.roifaineantpress.com/blog #WritingCommunity

I don’t know for sure but I think @rfpress.bsky.social should be on this list. An all volunteer, all about the writer press that believes in you more than you believe in yourself. Just a suggestion. #WritingCommunity

Struggling to deactivate at the other site. It’s a bad place now, but a bad place that once contained good things. It’s a haunted house in reverse—the horrors are all around, but sometimes…a creak of joy in the attic, a smiling memory at the edge of your feed, fun dashes into a wall and disappears.

How can we let this go without a fight?#earthlove

I’m trying to make a new life here on this lovely platform.. it’s hard to be the new girl in school. #WritingCommunity

Just a picture of a giant leaf I became obsessed with. Why is it so big? It’s an oak leaf from a hyper foliaged tree. #weirdnature

My daughter in law sliced off the bottom of her wedding dress with borrowed scissors for danceability. I wish I was remotely this cool. #badass

Thinking of happy times. My mind needs a break.

@barlowadams.bsky.sociahi my friend.. I’m here too

Leaving NYC after reading at the MAINTENANT 17 launch.. off to DC for a wedding. Never ever stop.

It’s been a while but I think I need to be here more often. I mean I don’t even recognize anyone anymore! #writingcommunity

Cheeky and boastful.

“I will get better at this” as told by my mother, this was her favorite phrase I said while trying to twirl spaghetti when I was about 2. Seems to be a theme for me.

Some pics from my trip to Milwaukee. Cool town.

Took my sweet Juneau to the vet for a dewclaw injury. She was such a good girl. All is well and we will be back on the trails in no time.

G’mornin loves.
