The mind numbing bombardment of #immoral, #illegal actions by our #government is intended to overwhelm us. It’s working. How do we stop it? #enoughisenough

Like waking everyday in a #nightmare. I cannot fathom how the cheese doodle is getting away with so much lawlessness? Show me you #pet pic for calm in the storm that is the new #hatefulAmerica. #dogs #cats #pets

Day 1- #rioters who attacked the #Capitol building ‘cause their wanna be king said they should - are #pardoned. Crooks, clowns & rapists are running the #U.S.A. #idiotpresident

I turn 60 this week. In #reunion 30+ yrs. 1st mom sent this blanket. Weepy as it’s the first blanket she’s ever bought me. Warmth, security, bonding. Closed infant #adoption steals all. #blueskyadoptees #adoptee #adoption #adopteesofbluesky

Buying 1st mom Xmas gift & the cashier asked about recipient. I explained I was adopted 60 years ago. Turns out she was #adopted as an infant from Russia. Her A-mother said she shouldn’t search. 30+ years in reunion, I said, “Even if not what you hope it’s essential to be whole.” #blueskyadoptees

#Adoption leaves a legacy of want. Forever we #adoptees hope for connection. Neither family fits. The systemic ripping away & random placement of infants severs the ability to be whole. #blueskyadoptees

Christmas was the calm in the calamity that was my childhood. Infant #adoption builds strength that no child should require to survive. This year’s tree is a calm reminder of my Italian NY #adoptive grandparents. Cheers in heaven Mama & Papa. #thekillingcloset #memoir #booksky

#Adoption is a lifelong sentence. I searched for and found my first family pre-internet. I still wrestle with the fact that I’ll never truly belong to either family. Pic of me and first mom. #adoptee

My father was #trans. She transitioned at age 70. My family might have known happiness had she been able to live her truth. Let them be! #TheKillingCloset #memoir #booksky #book

#Riverstreet #Savannah today for my Christmas giving pralines. I love the historic district. #homesweethome

Heard about the push for safe haven #baby boxes in my state. So babies can be dropped off anonymously to spend a lifetime never knowing their truth. Worse than the plight of closed record infant #adoptees. #adopteesky

Reading Knife by #SalmanRushdie #Chautauqua holds a special place in my heart. I hate everything about what happened to him there. Can a place recover tranquility in the aftermath of evil?

When #roevswade was overturned, I thought we’d reached the end of freedom in America. I was wrong. It was just the appetizer for a dense, gassy, bloated, binge of girl hate. It’s going to get messy ladies. I’m here for you. #womensrights #ally #prochoice
