Just bought tickets to a show in August by a band from an Asian country. Then I wondered if, by August, entertainers from other countries won’t dare to travel and play shows here in the US anymore. Sad reality of the times. 😢 #willtheystillplayhere #kindie #krock #kpop

Just a little resistance in my corner of the world. #resist I’m so tired of those fucking idiots and evil-doers trying to dissolve the USA, steal everyone’s data, take away rights/freedoms and make things 1000x worse for the entire world. BUT…I’m not *that* tired…I am fighting back. 💪🏼 ☮️

FYI: Heather’s name was used—without her permission— to portray affiliation/support of a specific group’s economic boycott. She is not against strategic use of economic boycotts, just against her name being used without her permission. Continue the good work, @hcrichardson.bsky.social ! ❤️ 💪🏼
Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

This email just arrived from my professional association. The reality of what this administration’s policies may do to patients, students, and their families is heartbreaking. Hoping that something can be done before everything good is dismantled. #resist #pediatrics #APTA #physicaltherapists

Representative Crockett is golden!! She is so inspiring and a great leader. And she has sarcastic wit! Protect this human!! Thank you @repjasmine.bsky.social !
Jasmine Crockett, after accusing colleagues of castrating their Constitutional duty, said, “My job is to make sure we don’t have any kings or queens in this country, but it seems like you all have decided it’s going to be Mr. King and his queen. And y’all can pick which one is which.”

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.
He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.
It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Remember this. Thank you for some wise advice AOC.
Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Distracted myself with a little neighborhood walk today and ready to call in extra forces to help me stay hopeful starting tomorrow. Nice to know Big Foot/Sasquatch is in my neighborhood and he seems like a positive influence. He might be up for the task.

Music unites, doesn’t it? We met a sweet human weeks ago at a BTS movie. Since then we have met her & a friend for the JK movie & now will meet this wk for the RM movie. Despite the fact that she & her friends are 30s, my daughter is early 20s, and I’m 60+, we can meet up and have fun. 💗 #music #BTS

Today was the first day Mom looked at a bowl of spaghetti & then at her fork not knowing how to use the two together. She ate the same meal, at the same restaurant, about 2 wks ago & was fine. Today I cut the spaghetti for her & then she could feed herself independently. 😞 #alzheimers #dementia #AD
