Jewish, queer, gay, writer, event planner, and lover of food, Palm Springs is home. I'm trying to be better at social media and bring more kindness into the world. Are those two things mutually exclusive?

Is any senator, member of Congress, or really anyone in a position of any actual power or authority, going to step up and express outrage with an actual plan to DO SOMETHING?

These dipshit social media posts being like “Things are bad and illegal! 🥴” are about to make my head explode

My friend Janis was murdered by one of the monsters being released as part of the cease-fire. Although I am hopeful this cease-fire holds, and all the hostages are returned. This is a bitter pill to swallow. Below are the words of my friend Kinnert
