Will Jack Smith's testimony even change anything? Because we already knew all of this. And well, MAGA doesn't care about the rule of law. So what's the point?

We're officially at the "batten down the hatches" mode of storm preparation. I've got tons of clean blankets, food (and more coming tomorrow morning), and a back-up plan if power goes out (the cats and I have been invited to stay with my cousin). So now, we wait. Which is the worst part.

Local weather men are freaking out, so I am now a little nervous about the storm, more so about losing power. So I'm going to call someone tomorrow to come look at the wall gas heaters that haven't turned on or even worked in several years. Those saved us during an ice storm once.

Winter Storm Watch here. I only hope we don't lose power, but it sounds like it's just going to be snow, so I don't see a need to freak out like everyone else in Southeast Missouri is doing right now. It's just snow, people. These folks would lose their minds up north (where I've also lived).

The media does realize that if this madman starts a war, they're going to suffer, too, right? I mean, why aren't they calling him out? This is bad for them, too. Instead, they're all acting like this is normal. THIS IS NOT NORMAL.

Baldur's Gate 3 had been out how long and they still haven't fixed the absolute chaos of the radial menus on console? I can't do alchemy or make other selections because I can't get the dang cursor to select it. That's been my biggest frustration with this game.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Just watched Strawberry Mansion, and what a weird, quirky, bizarre, and cool little indie movie that was. I almost felt like I dreamed it, and I think that was the point. I hear it's divisive, but I loved it. www.imdb.com/title/tt1139...

@theverge.com still hasn't fixed its erroneous story about Dave Filoni taking over as President of Lucasfilm when it's actually Lynwen Brannon AND Dave Filoni taking over as co-presidents of Lucasfilm. Like, seriously, erasing a woman's accomplishment here is not a good look.

I'm still on my puzzle kick. I had one I gave up on because it was missing at least three pieces, but I've really enjoyed the 500 piece ones. I think I'm ready for a 1000 piece one!

The Verge straight up just decided not to mention the woman who's Filoni's co-President, Lynwen Brannon. Like no mention at all.

If you're a writer, wondering why you should bother writing with the world on fire. It feels like it's not important, I need you to understand that it is.
Even if it is just because it keeps you moving forward? Even if it only brings YOU joy, that gives you energy to fight & survive.

So tired of seeing people praise Dave Filoni as the new President of Lucasfilm, completely ignoring that he's sharing the position with a co-President, Lynwen Brannon. #lucasfilm #starwars

I've never wanted to own a gun, although the military trained me on how to use one. However, my opinion is starting to change because I don't feel safe as a woman in this country. Is this how other women are feeling now?
