Mother, writer, editor, and advocate for democracy.

Well, I did it. I've started a substack for my unpublished work that I just want to put out into the world.
I have no idea what I'm doing, but...

We’re headed for the first shutdown since the last time Trump was in office.

The framing of trying to give Medicaid to illegals is absolute nonsense.

The average family of four is paying up to *$1500* a month on the insurance marketplace.

Dems wanted to help. GOP refused.

HEY CORPORATE MEDIA,

Say it with me. Your headline is REPUBLICAN CONGRESS FAILS TO FUND GOVERNMENT: SHUTDOWN IMMINENT

Let me know if you need any help with this

WOW! THIS IS TERRIBLE!

Trump's economy lost 32,000 jobs last Month according to ADP

Dow Jones had been looking for an INCREASE of 45,000.

In addition to the drop in September, the August payrolls number was revised to a loss of 3,000 from an initially reported increase of 54,000.

It can’t be said enough: the last three times the government has shut down, Donald Trump was president of the United States, and Republicans controlled the House and the Senate. They cannot govern.

I'm mad, guys. I'm so freaking mad.
I've been trying so hard to keep myself even headed, but I can't do it anymore.
All I want to do is scream all the time.
This isn't the world I wanted for my daughter and I just...

I confronted my (not quite mega church) pastor uncle on his blatantly racist rhetoric and when I thoroughly ripped apart his condescending reply, he ignored me.
It's been over a week and he still hasn't replied.
Man's an outright coward.

It’s starting to feel like martial law with troops being sent into city after city. Trump announced on social media that he’s deploying forces to Portland, escalating his campaign of targeting Democrat-led cities with military presence.

If you know that your dog likes to bite people, why the FUCK would you sit on the stairs of the complex so that everyone who walks by gets bit????
I don't fucking care if you're sending him to a class. He fucking bit me! Twice!

I love dogs, but I fucking hate people.

My next video is out! I feel like I made a lot of good improvements and this video came out a lot cleaner.

Two things can be true: someone can be abhorrent, and we can condemn gun violence (something, incidentally, Charlie Kirk never bothered to do.)

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence.

Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets.

Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe.

It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

In other news, my kiddo walked yesterday.
I know it's not even close to important to most people, but I feel like we all need a reminder that life is still happening, and even on terrible days, small joys can be found.

Schedule that haircut you’ve been putting off.
Stay true to your values even as chaos rises around us.

Good fucking morning to everybody, except those refusing to say Melissa Hortman's name—the Democratic lawmaker who was assassinated just 12 weeks ago. Her murder deserves the same attention as Charlie Kirk’s, as we all try to figure out how to make sure this shit never happens again.

They saw him die... I can't... Why won't people put a stop to this? There was another school shooting in CO at the same time.
How many people have to die? How many kids traumatized? Why is this still even a debate?
Charles Kirk's kids are 1 and 3. They will never know their father. That is beyond fucked up.

Assasinating two Dems in Minnesota was barely a blip from the media. Remember that the next few days.

It is possible to hold both of these things true at the same time:

1) political violence is never an appropriate choice in a civilized society

2) Charlie Kirk’s dream is to create exactly the kind of society he currently lives in, as spoken from his own mouth

Hey all!
I'm just here to let you all know that I made a YouTube video (because I've clearly gone insane).
The video is a review of the mystery/thriller book; The Whisperman by Alex North.
If you like long winded, impassioned rants about books, please check it out!
