IATSE. OPEIU. Pro Union. Safety centered. Singer/songwriter. Marathon swimmer. Cold water. I used to think I was pretty moderate politically until I discovered that wanting folks to have access to healthcare and a living wage made me a rabid liberal. 🤷♀️

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I’m very confused. I thought the left was out to get your guns, not shoot you with them.

Second half of my most recent song, sung at open mic night this week. Pretty amazing. Thanks, friends, for singing along. 💜🎶💜

“We don’t work for Donald trump, we work for the American people.”
Rep @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social says. He’s correct. I wish the republicans believed that.

Mtw 25:34-40. The hypocrisy of those voting in favor of this bill while professing to be a Christian is astounding. Mtw 19:24 “I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

OK, time for another update. 12:20 AM right now. They did finally pass the Foxx amendment, then called a 5 minute vote on the rule. It is still open, but at least as of now looks like it is going to fail.

I do not understand how anyone calling themselves a fiscal conservative can support a bill that will increase the national debt by trillions. #bigbadbill #justsayno

Today’s planned 6 hour bay swim was thwarted by lightning after 3. Still, it was a fun and rolicky 3 hours with good people. 😃
Also, someone who was convicted of 34 felonies has decided that Alcatraz should be rebuilt and reopened.🤨

Slightly rainy, but beautiful morning overlooking the Shenandoah river. Enjoy your Sunday 😊
Within hours of the admin threatening to eliminate the NEA, they started withdrawing and cancelling arts grants. The suppression of the arts is common in dictatorships. Keep creating! 🩵

Good morning from Maryland farm country. Have a great day!
The Kennedy center has decided that any front facing staff will not be allowed to protect themselves or those they care about. So that’s fun.

Good morning! Lovely last swim this morning in this gorgeous setting. Also, House Republicans have voted down an effort to block immigration enforcers from using federal resources to detain or deport U.S. citizens. Let that sink in.

Trans people deserve accurate + affirming passports!
On Friday, we filed a lawsuit challenging the Trump admin’s policy denying trans people U.S. passports with accurate gender markers.

In 15 minutes Sen Booker will pass Thurmond’s record for holding the senate floor. I love that a Black Senator is going to beat the record of a racist white man who filibustered 24+ hrs to block Civil Rights. This gives me hope. Keep it going.
