You can't "continue" what you never started.

You should retire. This week.
I will continue to fight against Donald Trump’s reckless, and in many instances, illegal attempts to gut the federal government. He is testing our system of checks and balances like they haven’t been tested in my lifetime. The fight continues.

Reporter: Is it time for new leadership in the Senate?

Jeffries: Next question.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

I didn't realize until now that ABC isn't just closing down 538 they're doing it like as of today. Full stop. No more data collection. As of right now. That's fucked up. Businesses have their own realities (support genuinely independent media). But that's an extra layer of fucked up.

Hi, I'm God.

I categorically reject Donold's request for Me to 'bless America.' I will not be doing that until he is long gone.

Fuck you, Donold.

Ole granny went to see the glory hole yesterday. Since I don't often get to have a potty mouth in public, I'm taking advantage.

We took a teeny road trip up to Lake Berryessa and the Monticello Dam. The glory hole spillway is spilling and it's a sight to see.

@hntdove.bsky.social Forgive me for being nosy. Are you and your family safe? I have a vague idea of where you are, but the situation has been changing fast, so I worry.

Also: If you don't have money to buy my (or anyone's) books, and you live in the anglosphere, before you pirate them, try to get them from your local library instead. They have it or can get it, they pay for the books, and in many places writers get paid for their books being lent. Everyone wins!

Bluesky,

Today is my 2nd day on here as an escapee from The Bad Place. I am BEGGING y’all to repost this

I have $80,000 in scholarship money to give away to women and girls NATIONWIDE. I worked so hard to raise this money. Applications open THIS week. I’m scared the mass migration will impact this

Not a tree this time. Four years ago at the start of covid, I planted some seeds for aloe polyphylla aka spiral aloe. This what it looks like now. I'm happy with it.

This aloe doesn't put out pups so it can only be grown from seed.

Shucks. I arrived a month ago and was going to start posting, but life got in the way. I'll try to spend more time in here as it's nicer than the other place.

It looks like I won't be posting much until after the weekend. Life gets in the way. Here's another of my favorite trees. Oaks can be so dramatic with all their gnarly branches.

I only arrived here yesterday. I'm busily finding my favorite posters from that other place. I don't expect follow backs as I have no history here yet. I will work on that. I love nature, science, history, and books. I have no tolerance for racism or bigotry. Have a tree (Mount Diablo)

I'm testing things here. It may take a bit for me to figure it all out, but it seems simple enough.

This beautiful boy was hunting for a girlfriend on Mount Diablo. I love the spideys.
