Gen X lesbian trying to channel the wise and kind side of myself as often as possible. Success rate has been questionable lately. Apparently, BEING HUMAN IS HARD!

It hurts to try and understand why poorly educated white people keep voting for people who want to destroy everything they have.

Trump supports don’t care that Trump is an adjudicated rapist who was charged with 34 felonies.

But they DO care if a refugee from Mexico stole a loaf of bread.

I’m kidding. They’re just racists.

I think a beautiful reminder that our universe is mother to all sorts of wonders.
The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff.

I know there's a lot of feelings over FAaFO vibes.......but sometimes I really feel um'!
I'm hearing that Las Vegas hotels are laying off employees in the face of Canadians boycotting US travel over tariffs and Europeans boycotting travel to the US over fear of abductions.

Nevada voted for Trump. You're welcome!

This is a solid point. It's so easy to not realize how important the words we choose to use are.

Snake head plants are my favorite woodland fairy aesthetic. Great shade plant for early spring joy. Growing under a giant cherry blossom tree in Western New York.

Yesterday I made a post about appreciating my bald beautiful cats, of which I have two. So today I will clarify that no creature's hair, weight, color, or shape determines its gifts to this world. Images of myself as I grow comfortable with my own head after a decade of self acceptance.

And this......
Makes sense.

Appreciate the bald and beautiful 😻

Fuck republicans period
Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

Exactly, and the white lady before her who's biggest scandle was emails. Fucking misogynistic Americans
Don’t look at me, I voted for the black lady who didn’t want to burn down our economy.
