Proud Californevadan with a sprinkle of HI dust. Mama, wife, and friendly witch to all.

Love/hate relationship with Sacramento politics. ‘Tis my job.
This sucks. I want sun. Don’t mind cold. Just give me mild solar rays please.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

I remember having the room to play below my seat on United 747 flights to HI when I was little (70’s). And I loved my cards and wings. The flight attendants were always SO SO lovely to me as I often flew alone back to the mainland to visit family.

The Aggies beat themselves? I mean I wish…but check your headlines y’all.

Truly a public health hero. Was my Senator for years. Not my district given our new map, but my Mama will get to vote for him.

Nope. I don’t even live in this district. Scott Wiener. 1000%.

Same. For years…

I’m not sure any exist anymore. Teen Vogue went digital when my daughter subscribed (In 2017 they stopped the print edition).

My daughter had a subscription to teen vogue in MS/HS. I was blown away by the impressive quality of their writing. Wasn’t anything like my teen years of Seventeen or BOP.

I’ve seen our mayor, city council members, and county board members about town. Also a state Capitol lobbyist, so see Lege Reps too.

I’ve also seen Congress critters in airports or on flights when I travel. Not at all unusual! But as a political animal, probably recognize more than many do.

I strongly support pubic health.

Food banks have been my priority charitable giving the last few years. When I heard Trump had quietly canceled funding for the Emergency Food Assistance Program, I immediately donated to my local food bank and the one on Maui (I’ve been giving there since the fire). Will continue each month. Jerks.

My Mom (76) went to her first protest today. Quincy, CA, population of about 1500 folks. She had a ball.

I was pleasantly surprised to be already on a list that blocked it for me.

Good lordt. So many commenting here who don’t follow CA politics.

The best candidate, 100 percent qualified, and a female, dropped out of the race.

Don’t necessarily disagree with DD’s contention but KP also hasn’t built a base here. We’re a large diverse state. You need the establishment to win.
