Finished off several pairs of earrings I’ve been working on for the past week. (Made from thrifted tins ♻️❤️✨) It feels good to have these (and some others) done. Now onto the next tin, but first, dinner! 🍽️

I answer the critically important question, "HOW DO WE SLOW DOWN TRUMP?"

Here are 7 meaningful things we can do to fight back.

There's no quick fix, but with collective efforts, we can make progress. And yes, it requires Dem Leadership to Wake the ---- UP.

The news suuuuucks, but a walk with my dog in nature on this 66° day was good.

Ventured a little outside of my comfort zone to attend the Filth Art show at the Firehouse tonight. Lots of provocative 🫦 art. I’m considering making something for it next year. Why not? 😁🤷‍♀️

Personally, I would like elected democrats to show less "let's compromise" energy and more "FUCK YOU" energy.

Good to remember
1. We're going to see a FLOOD of bad news out of the WH. It started IMMEDIATELY. I'd recommend remembering that EOs are statements of desire & most of P4547's will face challenges. Some bad stuff can be quickly implemented, but some can't or will be shut down quickly by injunctions & challenges. 🧵

At 56° today, Jasper needed to roll in some snow to cool off. ❤️🐾❄️
Much cooler temps are ahead for the weekend though. 🥶🥶🥶

Something I wish I’d done in 2024 is keep a record of how many of each type of earring I made, so I’m going to attempt that this year. I’m not off to the best start since I’ve already lost track, but I think I’ll be able to get a close approximation after looking at pics I’ve taken, etc. 😁

Hi friends, I’m not sure how much I’ll be on here (obviously rarely so far), but maybe with more frequency after Jan 20. Sending love out into the world, especially to LA, Gaza & Ukraine. ❤️‍🩹
