Brace yourselves. Educate yourselves. 💙
Not my usual kind of read but I'm so glad I picked this up. It offers insight to a wealthy family but also provides a lot of historical context. And the writing is excellent! I'll be looking for Cooper & Howe's other books.

Doing a lot of turning my anger into action lately. Today's act - donate to support Ukraine.

We are not with those guys President Zelensky met with.

It's finally here. I'm not overly religious but Bishop Budde's powerful yet graceful words left me with hope and I need all I can get right now.

I'm so excited for this progress. I started these little guys as seeds in 2022. I started with 12 & these are the last survivors. 😂😂😂 hope I don't jinx it!

Searching for a new washer/dryer? Avoid #Whirpool & #Maytag
My kitchen is now a laundry mat. The dryer worked 3 days. It's been serviced 3xs and never worked. Currently waiting on another part that's out of stock. No one will answer how long we have to keep doing this before they replace. +3mos.

Reading The Heretic's Daughter is like reading current news except winter is described as coming in as fast as a cock's crow and I say we bring that back

If you can, please consider buying Bishop Budde's book or ask your local library to carry it. I was oddly excited to see - It's on backorder! Let's use our dollars for people who deserve them.

Bonus for using bookshop.org or a local bookstore because fuck Amazon.

Finally working on my office, this is just the beginning and about 1/8 of my collection. My daughter was staying here so my plants have been a smidge neglected but we'll get back on track.

Never, in my darkest nightmares, did I even remotely think we'd see Sieg Heil at a U.S. President's inauguration.

Who's the troll that thought an #ElonMusk profile was convincing? 1) I despise him so he's not interested in following me 2) he's a massive piece of shit and I'd throw up I my mouth a little interacting with him.

None of them are perfect. But I can't believe this is what we're leaving behind for a long, long journey ahead.

Perk of working from home # 11M
I was frustrated after an interaction, walked away from my desk and saw my babes sleeping peacefully. Instant mood boost.

I've been making it a point to start my day reading and drinking coffee before getting on socials or jumping into work. I've noticed a positive swing in my mood. We'll see after 1/20 but for now, I'm enjoying the solitude.
