My current cycle:
Talk/think about fire
do some good
post some art on IG
read news
think of worst case scenarios
read a smutty book about dragons
repeat.

Trying to remember that good things exist:
-my kids
-my friends
-books
-Quincy Jones’ Love and Peace
-my dog

Tell me your good things.

#CouplonMusk paid about $250m to help Trump win the White House.

He is getting access to the personal information of 334.9m Americans. And allegedly storing it on private servers.

That is less than $1 per person. To sell America out.

TOMORROW: We’re rallying at the Treasury building with @moveon.org to stop Elon Musk’s hostile takeover and tell this unelected billionaire to get his hands off our money. We hope you can join us if you’re in the D.C. area.

Finally, we’re starting to see some fight. We need more of this 🔥

🚨Trump’s decision to shut down USAID has frozen critical work to deliver vital assistance around the globe, and put China in the driver’s seat.

Big national media outlet still failing.
Headlines suggest some dispute over data access at US AID.
*Not connecting the dots with other DOGE moves.
*Not conveying illegality.
*Not communicating constitutional crisis.

He and a group of under-25 techbros obtained the data of American citizens illegally. With zero authority.

The executive branch does not have the legal right to cancel appropriated spending or eliminate agencies created by Congress.
Trump and Musk are doing both. Entirely lawless and unconstitutional.

Knowing the names of the an unelected oligarch’s underlings who are destroying the government from within is a crime now, apparently.

I was born in the 70s, when LA still looked like the 50s & 60s. They didn’t tear things down as quickly then. I’m trying to find all the pieces of my childhood that still exist…which is harder to do after most of them burned down.

@bluehost.bsky.social why is your service so bad?

Why have I not been able to check the email of my business in a year?

Why have I been on a help chat with someone for an hour?

These are not rhetorical questions.

I think Kamala Harris running for Governor of California makes complete sense. Not only can she still run for President in 2028 if Trump hasn’t destroyed democracy by then, but if he does, we may need her as the President of the new Western States of America! Scary stuff, but sadly all too possible!
