This is one of my favorite Trixie photos from #BackInTheDay… and the reason why I chose this particular drawing of Alice from Through the Looking Glass as my avatar.
A young caucasian woman with shoulder length curly reddish blonde hair with bangs sits on a light brown overstuffed sofa, looking at the camera with an ambiguous expression. She wears a short sleeved black and white striped/checked collared Madras style woven shirt over a black skirt with white polka dots. The photo is an informal snapshot of Trixie, circa 1990.

Well, I went ahead and wrote out the ALT text for this graphic. I am on a personal mission to increase awareness of the importance of using alt-text in graphics and photography posts to help people with visual impairments participate in online life. Here it is: What the Dems did today… #alttext
Text of the graphic reads as follows: What Democrats Did Today, dated February 13, 2025. Bullet point items of accomplishments using small teal blue donkeys as bullets, are listed as follows: 1) Every single Senate Democrat voted against confirming RFK Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Then 2) Senate Democrats successfully blocked Elon Musk’s DOGE from accessing sensitive Department of Education data. Next 3) Governor Josh Shapiro is taking legal action to defend Pennsylvania’s funding from the Trump administration’s freeze. Followed by 4) Arizona Democrats passed legislation to provide funding for free school lunches in the state. And finally, 5) Representative Pramila Jayapal reintroduced her We the People Amendment to reverse the Citizens United decision and stop corporations from controlling politics.

The Gulf of Mexico abides on my ipad maps app, referencing wikipedia as source of information…
This screenshot image shows search results in an Apple maps app for The Gulf of Mexico, and depicts a map of The Gulf of Mexico, with surrounding land in Mexico and the southeastern United States, with the island nation of Cuba also visible. On this left side of the image is a column of information about the Gulf of Mexico, which the maps app has sourced from Wikipedia. The About text reads in part: The Gulf of Mexico is an ocean basin and a marginal sea of the Atlantic Ocean, mostly surrounded by the North American continent. Scenic photos of a cityscape and a beach area are depicted in the wiki information. Screenshot taken Feb 11, 2025.

There wasn’t a pitchfork emoji for my last…which left me feeling the itch of the incomplete task. This is better. ALT text elevated, as per usual. 😈🖤
This is a black and white poster for a movie titled, The Crazies: Fear Thy Neighbor, and shows a dark pitchfork on the upper left of the image, leaving a blood trail from several tines, along with large drops of dark blood on a pale, shiny hallway floor. To the right of the pitchfork head are a pair of legs in baggy dark pants, with clunky shoes, which belong to the individual holding the pitchfork. The movie promo credits are listed in white text at the bottom right corner of the poster, and the main title is at the top of these credits in large red font.

One down, email online to Senator Hickenlooper… I added the line, “If you vote for the public health threat, RFK Jr., I will be apoplectic. Yep. Used a fifty-cent word in a sentence today! 😁
This is a screenshot from a letter sent online to Senator Hickenlooper of Colorado, suggesting that he should stop participating in the overthrow of our Republic, on a national day of protest, February 5, 2025.

The coup attempt in progress must END NOW !!!
I am not able to march at my State Capitol today, but I will contact both my Senators through at least two channels, including calls…

And I am going to write a little script to leave a sweet troll message on the WH comments VM line for President MUSK.
The US flag, Old Glory, The Stars and Stripes, hangs vertically, flat against a white stucco wall, attached to a wooden flagpole. The flag is draped with a sheer black veil, which covers most of the flag, leaving a red stripe visible along the bottom edge of the flag, and a section of six stars on the blue background and red stripe showing along the top edge of the flag. The display is intended as a respectful symbol of protest against the hostile coup attempt in progress against our Republic.

Thanks! We will definitely be looking to strengthen our relationships and alliances here for the battle ahead.

No one lets go of anyone’s hand. I wrote that on a sticky note the day after the election.

So given how tense everyone has been lately, I thought it would be a timely opportunity to share the BlueSky Moderation Services team’s Community Guidelines link.

Here’s a screenshot snippet of text with an overview from the document.
This screenshot shows the introductory text of the BlueSky Community Guidelines, and they can be read following this link https://bsky.social/about/support/community-guidelines

I am trying out a few new things to calm down more lately, including a little more gratitude and appreciation for real things each day.

Today: the mushroom coffee finally arrived; the Polar Vortex has let up; and… I took these photos of my real #houseplants with their Lego counterparts.
This photo depicts an Oxalis Triangularis, or Purple Shamrock houseplant in the upper right corner, with it’s tiny Lego building brick counterpart in the foreground. Both sit on a beige woven placemat, each a dark purple color. The plant is sometimes called the Purple Butterfly or Mariposa Shamrock, because of the triangular leaves, which look like a convergence of butterflies. The Lego plant’s leaves are actually used as butterflies in other Lego sets. Mariposa means butterfly in Spanish. This is a photo of two real Jade houseplants; on the left, the larger ones in a pale green pot, with a small light orange pot of real Jade to the right. There is a smaller Lego jade plant in the foreground, with darker leaves and a terra cotta colored pot, made from Lego building bricks. All plants sit on a beige woven placemat.

Well, here in east Boulder County, Colorado, the Polar Vortex has delivered about 6 inches of snow, with a delightful temperature of -8 F degrees. High temperature for today is predicted to be 12 F degrees. 🥶🥶🥶 Very grateful for my home today. 🙏

It’s a need-more-cozy morning here in Colorado today. Foggy and winter frosty. 🥶

Fortunately, the Fire Maven was available to accommodate our needs. 😊
This photo is from the fireplace in our house, with a rosy glowing fire burning in a hot grate, with smoldering embers below. A black metal mesh grill is in place. Wishing you a wonderful new year ahead.

Lego Christmas here today. It’s therapeutic… in myriad ways. Hope your day is going well, whatever you are doing today! 😊
This is a snapshot of a Lego set that contains four reindeer and Santa Claus in his sleigh, which contains Lego toys, including a teddy bear, a guitar, and a pair of skis. Another Lego set, Santa’s Post Office, is in the background. This is a closer picture of the Lego set that builds Santa’s sleigh, which contains a Lego piece that shows Santa’s Nice List along with toys and gifts. There is a Lego Christmas tree in the background.

So timely and so important! The Osbournes Want to Believe episode now airing is doing a segment on whether Mark Zuckerberg is an alien Lizard Person! We are going to say yes, but we’ll wait for their Woogie Boogie score to confirm. 😁😉
This photo is a still frame from the television show, The Osbournes Want to Believe, a paranormal investigation series, and shows a large picture of the face of Mark Zuckerberg, the billionaire owner of Facebook, with an inset image of Sharon Osbourne, reclining in her chair with her dog on her lap.

Okay, we will!

This is one our niece wears…
This is a red baseball type hat intended to parody MAGA’s ridiculous slogan, and it reads: Made Ya Look on the top line of text, and Black Lives Matter on the line below.

Yep. They have choices to make, and we must hold them accountable. This one negotiated for release to the garage for an undisclosed sum. 😉

We were planning to expatriate if things went down as they did. Then we decided that it would be oppressive to suffer the disdain of everyone in every country everywhere… so we just got a boatload of holiday Lego sets instead. Let’s hope this works. 🤞
