Love to see it! I voted for Rocco for a dozen or more reasons, but his receptiveness to community feedback and his quick action is up there!

This move reads as:
- Ceding leverage at the exact moment leverage mattered.
- Treating a moral crisis like a scheduling inconvenience.
- Asking people who are already being harmed to “wait two weeks” while power protects itself.

The DOJ says no court has the authority to enforce the Epstein Files Transparency Act... and they did it in the middle of the night so it wouldn't make a big news splash.

Are ICE agents wearing Southern Brotherhood prison symbols, or...?
(Around 14 seconds in, "1423" can be seen on an agent's helmet. "1423" (or 14/23) refers to a widely known white supremacist phrase, snd the "23 precepts".)

Anyone else spend an inordinate amount of time at the Puget Sound VA? I'm here three days a week while my husband undergoes treatment, and there's a guy who waits for me in the lobby so he can walk a few feet behind me and comment on my ass... and I would happily welcome a buddy to chill with!

The fact that I can score so well on a cognitive test at 6:55 in the goddamn morning on a random Wednesday while I wait for my partner at his VA appointment is less a testament to my intelligence and more a brilliant display of the indisputable powers of espresso. *nods*

Today around 2:05 PM, eastbound on HWY 518 in SeaTac, WA, my husband & I were tailgated hard by this driver. We flipped each other off. We changed lanes, he races away, slowed & cut across traffic, rolled down his window and screamed “White power, b*tches!” while throwing up a Nazi salute.

I spent the last hour in the lobby of my doctor's office in Cap. Hill (Seattle), talking with an 80-year old farmer who lived on Vashon Island. Turns out she grew up TWO BLOCKS from where my family now lives, and her school is now our Safeway.
I love moments like this, especially now. 🥹

Hiring managers & boards: let’s talk about the knee-jerk side-eye toward “short stints” on resumes.
Too often, brief tenures trigger lazy assumptions - “flaky,” “disloyal,” “undisciplined.” That’s bias, not truth. 👇🏻
