Secret Service chasing 11-year-olds. They thought they were ICE, which would be horrific to have K-12 kids chased down by agents. No better that the truth was it was SS looking to get an 11-year-old who made anti-trump video.

This.
It was truly something to be a teenager & early adult between the fall of the Berlin Wall and the fall of the World Trade Center. That’s not just a nostalgic idealization of youth; we were in a moment that’s impossible to explain now.
I just want to be in middle school and play the Sega dreamcast for the first time again, instead of wondering if I'm going to be forced to live under authoritarianism.

With 3 kids at uni (ie we’re broke), I suggested we all do vintage Christmas - used gifts only. They were truly SO excited. I wish I’d thought of this years ago!

This is a very dark turn, calling out low-level government employees by name to add harassment to job loss, all because some anonymous account on twitter complained about them.

Unreciprocated Xmas cards allow me to feel an unhealthy, yet satisfying, sense of holiday superiority.

I have scoffed at those who’ve thrown up tinsel before turkey. But it hit me hard this morning, after all this shit, I need a little Christmas, right this very minute. And yes, Mame will be playing in the background when I set up the tree today.

It appears that introductions are in order here, which I love. Don’t know if this will ever be read, but putting it out there is enough. I am a wife, a mom, a friend, a writer, and a leader, in no particular order, depending on circumstance. I love the unfulfilled promise of America. I still hope.

Waking up on a Saturday to the sound of my husband walking our daughter through replacing a dead battery on her car while at uni. Strangely, hearing him discuss steps and tools and her successfully executing makes me feel nostalgic and grounded and happy. What is that? 😊
