Older lady doing things one expects older ladies to do, but not a typical old lady. A voice of reason in an unreasonable world. Far too educated for MAGAs. I like knitting, laughing, drawing pictures, and swearing. No DMs, no porn. No marketing.

Demented. Deranged. Unhinged. Psychotic. Whacko.
I can't choose between laughing and crying so I'll do both.
🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭
Seriously, though, This is deeply concerning. The level of delusion and detachment from reality here is dangerous, not just embarrassing. When reality starts slipping, democracy isn’t far behind.

Regardless of one's views of James Comey, he does not deserve to be subjected to politically motivated reprisals or baseless legal harassment at the behest of the president. The weaponization of the justice system undermines the principles of democratic governance and due process. It is un-American.

Ballrooms are ridiculous in the twenty-first century. Anyone up for a cotillion? Imagine Trump waltzing in satin breeches with lace cuffs on his waistcoat and sporting a yellow powdered wig. Perhaps a fake "beauty mark" on his cheek?

Arrested for speaking the truth. This administration and its supporters are going to require significant amounts of electricity and a large number of chairs when this shameful part of our history ends.
This is 3 of the 5 minute exchange Isaiah Martin had this morning at the meeting on Congressional Redistricting in Texas. They arrested him for speaking the truth. I wish I could’ve uploaded the full 5 minutes but Bluesky only allows for 3. Isaiah is running for Congress. Please show him support.

Wait a damn minute! Shouting lies from the podium doesn’t make them facts. It just makes you loud and wrong.
Watch as @katiephang.bsky.social exposes the lies. Then share these posts and spread these facts…online and offline.
Together, we can shut down Don’s dangerous disinformation machine.

Suppose they gave a military parade and no one came. After all, what is a parade without a crowd? I won't be watching.

This was weird. I got a letter from my health insurance co. and opened it. I assumed it was for me but soon discovered it was addressed to my doctor in a different city. My name and address weren't anywhere on the envelope but it came to my house and the letter was about me. How does this happen?
