I know many of you are scared about the next four years.

Know that with this community we are building, we will get through it.

And, we will do it together.

I’ve decided that for this week, I’m not checking the news, and instead paying attention to all the things I’m grateful for. It’s a spiritual practice. We can take breaks from the yuck.

If the Dolphins lose at the Packers Thanksgiving night, the Bills can win their fifth straight AFC East division title with a win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night.

Pretty crazy someone can be charged federally with interfering in an election and those charges get dropped because they win an election.

Anybody else find it strange we’re having a ‘peaceful transfer’ to absolute chaos?

Trying to get home from Dallas to DC. Flight delayed for hours, finally canceled. Airline tried to rebook me on a flight to Denver(!), and then take a red eye to DC

Thanks to a Biden reg, I was able to get a refund and rebook on another airline

Trump promised airline CEOs he’ll get rid of the reg
Delta CEO says the Trump administration will reverse government 'overreach' seen under Biden
The chief executive of Delta Air Lines says the incoming Trump administration will be a “breath of fresh air” for airlines after what he called government “overreach” under President Joe Biden.

For me, the thing that knocked the wind out of me with this election is that I dared to believe America would get it right THIS time, that America was ready for a Woman President.

It hurt having that blind faith in neighbors, friends, and strangers smacked out of me.

Dammit, America. 😞

Important Q&A included if you’re asked about immigrant status at Texas hospitals. 👇🏽

That’s right - TX hospitals are now required to ask for patients’ citizenship.

Greg Abbott is the leading cause of discrimination in Texas.
It's killing me to watch Texas fall in line with a fascist rapist felon.

Republicans have absolutely ruined this once great state.

We are now the leader in embarrassing laws, hatred, ignorance, racism and killing women for no good reason.

It's pathetic.

Texas hospitals are now required to ask for patients’ citizenship. Here’s what you should know.
Gov. Greg Abbott wants to know how much hospitals spend caring for undocumented immigrants. Hospitals should not deny care based on how patients respond.

Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.

His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.

Picked up this little book of writers’ writing rituals, & I think most of em are liars — “up at dawn, 6 hours at my desk, followed by calisthenics, liquor, & reading edifying works.” But David Lynch delivers the goods.

This moment in Bluesky is a great example of how joy itself can be defiance and resistance.

We are just hanging out, shitposting, being silly, happy, and normal. It is being treated as if it is transgressive, opting out of the endless negativity. Because in a way, it is.

Joy is my favorite weapon.

Threads is an echo chamber on the left, Twitter on the Right, I hope this stays a sane normal place where some disagreement can be politely explored. Too much to ask??
