No purchases for a full 24 hours; let's make history together!
1454.
We watched The Sound of Music yesterday and started Inglorious Basterds today.
1455.
1456.
1457. Starting a countdown felt like a good idea at the time.
1458 days to go. Are we there yet?
This has been the longest January.
1459 days to go.
I watched yesterday but I'm always down to revisit the Eras Tour! 🥹
Do you think we will get a documentary or anything from the Toronto film footage? I vowed not to clown too hard in 2025. 🤡
Something I'm really grappling with is the notion of wishing the next 4 years to speed past due to wanting Trump out but simultaneously not wanting them to speed by because Zoey will be graduating from high school by the time he is out of office. The mom guilt is hurting bad.
1460 days.
Really tried in earnest to calm my nerves today. Did it work? Meh. Did I get all sorts of puppy snuggles? You bet. There was cake too.
We are out again tomorrow for a big snow day. Hope this helps ease some of Zoey's anxiety, too. ❄️☃️
Fuck Elon Musk and his "RoMaN SaLuTe." When he starts goosestepping ~for the lulz~ some bootlicker is going to try to say he's just a member of the Ministry of Silly Walks. 🙄🤬
If you didn’t use TikTok much, you probably didn’t know that that’s where so many of the science educators and climate activists were meeting people where they’re at, sharing and informing, activating and building community.
Today, I'm thankful my school system was off for a Teacher Workday (and yesterday for MLK, of course).
Back when Kamala announced her presidential run, we booked a hotel for Washington for the inauguration.
Now I'm grateful to have a self-care day, just to process all that's already happening.
As of ~8:30 AM, the hashtags work again.

Doubt Meta will try to explain this!
Today was ...not good. We all knew that would be the case, right?
One day at a time.
1461 days to go.
Let's keep surviving out of spite.
Fuck the Patriarchy!

I'm going to be trying my best, Amanda. ☀️ We will find our way back into the sun.
Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025
I'm trying to be cool about it, and also it's like 4 AM, but *the* Hank Green noticed + reposted a BlueSky comment I sent him on his TikTok earlier and I will never emotionally recover from this, okay bye. 🫠🫠🫠
(...Also, pop off, BlueSky. 💅 That never would have happened on Facebook.)
In about 12 hours the nightmare begins.
Hold your friends and family close. Try to protect your communities and your sanity. All empires fall and madness can’t reign forever. Work toward that brighter day as we walk together through this valley of darkness.
Well, that was a cool thing to wake up to! Thanks for letting me know!
@hankgreen.bsky.social Everyone keeps talking about how 'different' TikTok feels and I think I figured out another big reason why. In addition to the lack of features such as Live feeds, all the weird Capcut filters and things are completely gone and a lot of memes depended on them.
