So there is a reason I’ve been so scared for the future. And a reason I’ve also been very happy. @tekla.bsky.social and I have an announcement to make 💕

As a former Episcopalian this also pisses me off
The 12 Days of Christmas “advent calendars” piss me off.
Advent marks the fourth Sunday before Christmas until, well, Christmas. Modern calendars go from Dec 1 to the 24th.
The twelve days refer to Dec 25 to Jan 6.
These are different timespans!

Remember 25 years ago when a photo was taken of a fed pointing a gun at a crying refugee child and the image was so shameful it dominated the news cycle for a year

The Trump administration State Department is taking money that's supposed to be used for helping vulnerable refugees around the world and using it to bribe corrupt governments into taking people that ICE can't deport to their home countries.

It’s wild to me. This didn’t exist a couple of years ago. What did they do before then? Just do that again!
I wish people would stop relying on ChatGPT for everything.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Unless Democratic Senators who voted no on the #Schumersurrender today explicitly call for Schumer to resign or step aside - they all own this cave. Just pushing out performative posts and press releases don’t count for much anymore. Enough.
Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week
Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.
We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.
We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

Hey Senator, since you won’t let me leave a voicemail in your off hours, let me just say right here that you’re a gullible fucking sap

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

I am once again saying that we saw what wall to wall, panic coverage of a crisis looked like after the Biden debate and there’s no reason Trump isn’t getting that kind of coverage except for class solidarity.
So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?

I think a number of press outlets badly want there to be a groundswell of anti-trans feeling, because the ownership/senior editorial of those papers have absolutely cooked their own brains on transphobia. It seems to be largely an elite psychosis!
the harris campaign said the “they/them” ad didn’t sway the election.
one of the trump campaign’s top strategists this week said trans rights isn’t in the top five issues for swing voters.
when will the press stop talking about us like we’re a liability and start looking itself in the mirror

In these dark times we must take joy wherever we find it, and I delight in every picture of how hideous Trump has made his White House look. No part of the decoration has been made to fit with any other. It’s a parody of elitism: witless, crude, clumsy, jarring, cheap, ugly, pathetic. It’s so him

So banks get more interest. People buy houses in their 30s, die before paying off the mortgage, and then banks get to repossess them from broke inheritors

We desperately need to gut our kitchen. Like "just how badly damaged ARE these joists" stuff. We're also pretty broke.
When I priced out the kitchen reno a few years ago Drywall was like $5 a sheet. Now it's $15. We have a higher income, but it's even less affordable.

They’ll do everything to make homebuilding, affordability, and economy significantly worse off with gimmicks instead of taking actions that soundly get America building again to drive down price inflation and get people housed.
Trying to think of a worse idea but I'm coming up short
