I realize that children are our future and the world belongs to them but, my god, do they have to be such screaming loud monsters???

"Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes."
What comes to mind with the East Wing and SNAP assistance....

I think I've discovered which of my IRL friends would probably turn in Anne Frank and her family living in the attic next door... It's disappointing but not really unexpected. It's surprising what "Finding Jesus" does to a person and their basic human decency.

My empathy for Mrs. Kirk...... (Still remains strong for the kids, though. Perhaps even more-so now.)

Now that conservative, cisgender, heterosexual, white American men are feeling threatened by gun violence, can we finally have a real discussion about gun laws and gun violence and gun controls?

Darn. Well anyway, can we not turn offensive Right Wingers into martyrs? It's only going to turn the already rabid radical right even more rabid, more radical, and more dangerous. Kthx.

My neighbors apparently hate plants. Yesterday, they took a chainsaw to the one remaining plant, a cactus, on their property. It's all dirt and mostly cut-down weeds. No trees, no grass, no flowers, no bushes, no shrubs... Nothing....

I have to stop planning hikes; the very thought starts fires. This is the #AZT portion north of Grand Canyon that I've been planning on coming back to in the autumn. The red blotches are fires, the line with distorted arrows is the #AZT. #LGBTHiker #backpacking

It's taken me a full 24 hours to wash and dry my #backpacking quilt from 2-ish months on the #AZT... back in the spring. Hand wash in bathtub, toss in dryer (no heat), remove over-twisted quilt from dryer, spread it out on couch, leave fan on and pointed at it all night, wake up, ....

The SSA is gaslighting people on Social Security and Seniors. No mention of their nursing home possibly closing due to Medicaid cuts. #SSA #FuckTrump

You never notice how *loud* everything in a city is until you've spent two months in the wilderness. The cacophony of Costco gave me a headache. #azt #thruhike #lgbthiker #backpacking
