This is a fair point. We need to show up at post offices to put eyes on those ballots the way some protestors are showing up at schools to help kids evade ICE.
Vance and Johnson near to shedding crocodile tears over these stories of children killed by immigrants, too, knowing thousands of children are prisoners in ICE concentration camps, too. Hypocrites.
Trying to watch the SOTU because itβs my duty as a citizen. Still amazes me to hear Tr*ump accuse everyone else of corruption, fraud, grifting, and all the other staples from his own damned playbook.
Nothing rattles the powerful like sunlight.
A royal tied to Epstein allegations gets arrested, and now his photo is hanging in the Louvre like a warning label.

Please god, donβt let it. I am wide awake tonight, trying to wrap my brain around seeing the first female VP elected *and* the SAVE act actually pass the House, all within my lifetime.
Their Highnesses, the Picky Princesses of Prospect Hill, are declaring a snow emergency. Humans will be expected to stay in bed, use the couch blanket, or otherwise provide maximum constant body heat.

No one should trust the DOJ to decide what counts as relevant. We all know there are millions of unreleased docs.
π¨ The DOJ says it has released all of its βrelevantβ records on Jeffrey Epstein, but some lawmakers are demanding more.
Please and thank you from Americans, too.

Republicans: "Women who care about the U.S. need to accept 'traditional' marriage and give up their birth name because that's what tradwives do."
Also Republicans: "Oh, you're the Mrs. in a 'traditional' American marriage? So sorry, just in case you've started paying attention, now you can't vote."
Either we believe women - hundreds of women - or we don't. How is that not proof enough?
@mfaboston.bsky.social, you should be ashamed of yourself. Our local politicians and MA reps in Congress are standing up for DEI. Yet you decide to lay off BiPOC curators who champion Muslim and Native American art? I've been a card-carrying MFA member for over 20 years but no more.
Still not enough yet?
Iβll say it out loud! The president of the United States trafficked, raped, tortured, and killed children. Thatβs just what they e allowed to be seen. So the worse is actually still hidden. Enough yet?

Millions of workers are toiling away from their families over the holidays. So thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Pay all workers a living wage.

If I had daughters looking at colleges right now, Iβd be teaching them how to make Excel spreadsheets- not just for mathing costs, but keeping track of which states would deny them healthcare and basic human rights in a crisis. No amount of scholarship $ compensates for the risks in TX and FL.
No more caffeine after 10 AM for me, until the cholesterol does its job. #IYKYK #insomnia #politics #stress

The happiness everyone gets from these random, perfect, late autumn days is one of my fave things about living here.
Me: Things are getting better.
Brain: Here, have even worse insomnia than usual just for fun.
A judge has permanently blocked Trump's destruction of the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Really good news for libraries (and those like me, who love them! www.ala.org/news/2025/11...
Ppl w #LongCovid in nyc: avoid the Mt Sinai clinic in union square.
It is not connected to the one lead by David Putrino. The union square is run by a nurse who is pushing SSRIs as the only possible Covid treatment & if you donβt want them they refuse to offer anything else.
And they insult you.
Iβm still enjoying how MAGA Twitter will never live down that theyβre all troll farms from Russia and Bangladesh. The whole MAGA βmovementβ has been fake bullshit from top to bottom from the very beginning.

βWhy are so many people committed to setting their own life on fire to prevent someone else from having the bare minimum?β You nailed it. This is the question future historians will be asking about the entirety of Americaβs lifespan.
