#GrumpyPolitics On Fridays, we Celebrate! Every small win is worth celebrating.

I'm celebrating the wonderful dinner I had with my family yesterday. I'm also celebrating the idea of Kristi Noem on the witness stand for Contempt.

What are you celebrating today?

Giving cats a bath is always an adventure. Two were mortified, but relatively good. The third tried to murder me. First time I've gotten injured giving a cat a bath in 15 years.

I've tried a recipe from Matthew before. It was absolutely extraordinary! I'm really looking forward to this book coming in. I've been waiting for Christmas to gift to my son and hopefully get him interested in cooking and baking.
🎁 For this holiday season, consider gifting COLOR TASTE TEXTURE! It’s a great primer for people of all ages with little to no experience cooking. If you have some neurodivergent friends and family, or parents of littles, they might love this! It’s not just a cookbook, it’s a new approach to food. 🎁
I’m an Autistic classically trained chef and I wrote a food aversion acceptance cookbook and guide titled COLOR TASTE TEXTURE, that’s all about finding out what works for specific sensory needs and how to customize food for them. It’s useful for all ages, no cooking experience necessary.

I think "class traitors" is up there with "idea landlords" on the reality disconnect scale.
Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

It's $5, not your first-born child! I need that $5 for health insurance!

HAPPY HINDERVERSARY!

Whilst the Hinderstream may have burst (quite literally) to life on the other place, I'm glad ten tickles made it through the BlueSky and landed near the Cotton Candy Castle.

As holiday travel picks up, we have heard reports of travelers being detained by DHS.

If you are a NY-14 constituent worried about detention, consider filling out an ICE privacy release form. This form allows my office to contact ICE on your behalf ⬇️

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

It's not surprising. There are just people in this country who don't want other people to have things more than they want things for themselves.

NEW: By trying to stop a voter-led referendum, Missouri’s GOP is testing whether politicians can insulate their gerrymander from public judgment altogether. The outcome could reshape how, and whether, voters can check partisan power.

We are monitoring the situation in St. Paul and working to understand what unfolded. We received no heads up from federal authorities on this operation.

While we are always willing to work together on public safety, that is clearly not what this chaotic situation was about.

This weekend, I joined @grownyc.bsky.social, Throggs Neck Community Alliance, and volunteers for a food distribution in Throggs Neck. We distributed 1,500 pounds of fresh produce, halal turkeys, and chicken to over 350 community members ahead of Thanksgiving. (1/2)

Sheridan brings the charm, Delenn brings the GOO, and we bring the unhinged energy. ✨

Season 2 Ep 2 “Revelations” had us peeling aliens, yelling “TRASH JIM,” and questioning every single urchin on Babylon 5.

Come watch the chaos unfold!

I have not been on this app because I am very distracted and my hyper-focus hasn’t allowed me to come here. It just didn’t make room in my brain. But I miss everybody. And I’m thinking of all of my Wheel of Time, friends I’m grateful all of you for being a welcoming community and enriching my life.
