July 17th is a nationwide day of action in honor of John Lewis. Let's commemorate his life by gathering for some good trouble. Be sure to look for an event near you! If you are in the area near Fort Drum, come join us in Public Square from 5-7pm!

Pics from the #ElbowsUp rally for Canada on Wellesly Island today! We had a great turnout with lots of support from passing vehicles.

The woman who travels with her Statue of Liberty costume is an absolute legend!

A video of some of my favorite signs from Saturday's No Kings Day protest in Watertown, NY!

I am absolutely disgusted the ongoing detainment of a nursing mother who has been in this country for 20 years, since she herself was a child!

Are we great yet, America?

The mother of these girls has been in detention since January and today is her hearing. Supporters from around my small upstate town came together yesterday to show love to the family and bring this mother home where she belongs.

This is happening in the town practically next door to me, where the "border czar" Tom Homan also resides. I've seen an outpouring of love for the family that has been detained, but I've also seen a horrifying amount of hatred leveled against the family and local supporters. 1/2

So who who won this round of Ransom Notes? We can't decide! 🤣

Here we have a wonderful example of a cat's idea of being helpful.

Has anyone else been followed by Elmo?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Granted, this is just as likely to be an imposter, but the follow along with his measly 18 followers was hilarious.

My household has a bit of an obsession with photoshopping our cats, so I get the most fascinating images in the family group chat.

This is a cow trying to attract attention...

Boris really enjoys curling up with me when I'm settled under my weighted blanket!

While out doing grocery deliveries, my daughter and I met a friendly cat who demanded attention.

We learned his name is the very appropriate, "Fat Jack."

"Good morning, mother. I'm glad to see you finally awake. My food bowl has been nearly empty for almost an hour, I'm wasting away!"

The whole crew standing guard!

I'm enjoying all of the cat profile pics!

All the blue sky love inspired an ending to help me wrap up a poem I started a few nights ago when I was feeling low and couldn't sleep.

The sheer number of people clearly longing for community and collaboration gives me a bit of hope for the future.

Just in case anyone needed to see a cat...
