I want to scream:

GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER, USA!

USE YOUR WORDS, NOT GUNS.

The rest of the world is tired of sending thoughts and prayers for totally unnecessary tragedies.

JUST STOP IT. NOW.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I JUST DID A THING!!!

I inserted my Discussion (11 pages/5063 words) into my main thesis document, which is now 74 single-spaced pages (excluding Acknowledgments and Appendices), 23,948 words, and 117 references.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

You should listen to this woman. She left America when he first came into power. SHE KNEW WHAT WAS COMING. Heed her caution “it’s almost too late.”
Most people don’t know that Rosie O’Donnell was a very early supporter of Eleven Films back in 2020.

We will always have her back. 👊🏼💙

This is from her TikTok.

History is repeating itself.
Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted. To join me in standing up for the freedom to read, go to pen.org/action. @penamerica.bsky.social @topshelfcomix.bsky.social @idwpublishing.com

Canada Day 2025 - Plan C: hugged a moose at the mall! At the "first that I can remember" Canada Day display complete with floor stickers saying "Elbows Up" and "True North Strong and Free". Impressive! ❤️💪🍁

Have other malls also done this? ️

My #CanadaDay plans just went sideways because my large mobility scooter is not yet charged--for unknown reasons. Looking to binge watch The Beachcombers. What other Canadian classics would you recommend?
