@alwayscoffee.bsky.social, one of the loveliest people on Bluesky, wrote one of her wonderful #TinyPoems for me, and it touched me so much! I wanted to share it with everyone in hopes it would lift your spirits like it has mine. Thank you, Ali!!
If the “Discombobulator” is a device that makes everything not work, I can only assume that it is, in fact, The Mad King’s brain. It fits perfectly.

Hello, all. I haven't posted in a while, I took some time away for my birthday so that I could actually enjoy it a little without thinking about depressing news. I've been on the absolute edge for a while now. Know that I'm still here and I love all my dear friends - you all are my support base. ❤️

Eyes are better open than closed. In order to be able to fight for the future, we have to see that the former US is gone.
There is no long slide into autocracy. That’s over. We’re there.
It sucks, but if we want to effectively work for some future democracy in this land, we need to be realistic.

Why does The Mad King's regime keep using the threat of slamming American consumers with more and more tariffs to try to extort other nations to do their bidding?
Never minding the evil of trying to extort our allies and enemies, doesn't the gun work better when we're not aiming it at ourselves?

I have just come to a decision. I had not used my X account in ages, but had kept it to keep anyone from impersonating me there. I no longer consider that reason enough to keep it. I guess I also hoped someday it would return to a better version of itself. Foolish! I am deleting it now, permanently.

The reporting on the killing of Renee Nicole Good now makes one thing very clear:
When a bystanding medic pleaded to help, when they were denied the opportunity, when the ICE agent loudly proclaimed he didn't care, when ICE blocked EMS personnel, Renee was ALIVE. Her murder had more than one agent.

The funny thing about María Corina Machado giving her Nobel Peace Prize to Donald Trump as a bribe in order to try to become the puppet leader of Venezuela is that it proves that neither one of them ever deserved it in the first place.

I wish I didn't identify with this so thoroughly. I truly wish our athletes well, but I don't think I can put any real effort into cheering for, watching, or even caring about the results of this Olympics, at least as far as the US is concerned.
I usually love to watch the Olympic Games, but this year, with the jingoism that’s taken over my country, I can’t bring myself to care about Team USA. I know the athletes aren’t responsible, but I just can’t cheer for the USA right now.

Your semi-regular reminder that Democrats are MUCH better at creating jobs than Republicans, by a factor of 2.1M per year vs 0.8M per year. Biden did the best at 4.0M per year, while The Mad King was near the bottom with 0.5M in his second term (so far) and at the bottom with -0.7M first term. #jobs
