I’m of the “don’t yuck someone else’s yum, within reason” type of mind but as a day 1 Spotify hater I’m yucking every yum on Spotify Wrapped Day.

I think my favorite part about my new gig is it challenges me to suspend my disbelief in a brighter future without capitalism and bc a reliance on fossil fuels. Which is hard for a Debbie downer like me - but I’m loving it.

Who has flown recently? Give it to me straight: how bad is it and how much should I be panicking for my flight to Seattle on Sunday?

I wish I could work a job where I wasn’t horrified and depressed daily, but alas I decided my life’s passion is in public utilities and affordability 🥲

This is such an ass stupid take (why would I expect anything different from bs of bend), and it is unfortunately taking every iota of my self control not to message this woman and yell lol

It’s really hitting me today that the organization that employed me when I first moved to Bend 8 years ago, and gave me the runway to create the beautiful life I have today, literally cannot provide the very necessary assistance needed to other Central Oregonians because of this administration.

Where are the 2A people??
ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Loving the No Kings action yesterday. Here is a SUPER easy thing you can do if you want to keep up the good work: call your governor and Public Utilities Commission and ask for a moratorium on utility shut offs while we’re in this government shutdown.

First time in Vegas. I’ve decided it’s basically just evil Salt Lake City. Still mostly just strip malls, but everyone is mean and every car wants to kill you.

Today is the 15th anniversary of my dad’s passing. He was a huge Pink Floyd fan (some of my fondest memories are listening to Floyd with him). I honestly think the only thing he’d be disappointed in me is that I’m not more radical and engaged.

A real contrast to the carefully produced event inside the arena.
While LCRW gives live updates from the Kirk memorial, I’ll be giving updates from outside. Follow along for both (if you care lol).

This sums up the energy outside — lots of trash, lots of bad merch, medical emergencies everywhere you look. Also content warning because the bigots are out in force.

I just had to have my boyfriend explain to me what a groyper and Helldivers II is. I don’t know which of us felt more shame.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

I’m a constantly stressed out person (because I’ve chosen to work in very high stress professions and because of the world in general) but my goodness do I feel 8,000 times better when I make the choice to extend basic kindness to strangers at an airport. We’re all stressed! It’s okay!

Today during an interview I was asked who, dead or alive, I’d like to have dinner with. It took me an UNCOMFORTABLE amount of time to produce any other name than Mao Zedong (I said FDR???).
