FASCISM IS NO LONGER AN ABSTRACTION.

Countercultural. Not out of touch.

Let’s be the heroes of our own damn story.

Be kind. Work hard. Make things.
Be courageous. Laugh when you can. Fight Fascists.

Okay, so, I’ve believed for a long time that no one is coming to save us. We’re on our own. Let’s be the heroes of our own damn story.

Let’s concentrate on what we can control.

Be kind.
Be courageous.
Fight Fascists.
Not been on Bsky much lately.

Priorities, ya know.

See ya when I see ya.

The priest at my church got beat up at an anti-ICE protest on the peninsula this week, and when he showed up for Mass today with a black eye all the church ladies swooned like they had seen a Backstreet Boy.

Woke up earlier than normal. Satchmo whined and cried to be let out on the patio, so I opened the cat door. Instead of going out he squeezed himself onto the top shelf of the climb where Brubeck was.

"Race Traitor" is a label I will proudly wear.
A really helpful guidepost at this moment is simply this:

Live your life in such a manner as to disgust Nick Fuentes.
Nick Fuentes called Alex Pretti a “race traitor” for opposing ICE.

I argue that sentiment is actually widespread on the MAGA right.

Now that my coworker is out on medical leave for 8 weeks, my boss finally wakes to the structural problems in our department that I’ve been telling him about for 3 years.

Why should I watch something that a director didn't even bother to make?

Pretty sure this is better than the original. Proper amount of obsessive creepiness.

I want to be curled up on the couch under a blanket half-watching Star Trek.

Truth telling isn’t attacking. If your Christianity is threatened by honesty then you have more in common with Christ’s enemies than his followers.

After yesterday's glorious WFH day, I'm forced to return to the windowless warehouse to stare at computer screens.

There are no records here, nor cats, nor my refrigerator, nor can I adjust the thermostat at will.

Send thoughts and prayers.

#wfh days mean records. Starting with one of my grandfather’s Al Hirt records.
