IATSE. OPEIU. Pro Union. Safety centered. Singer/songwriter. Marathon swimmer. Cold water. I used to think I was pretty moderate politically until I discovered that wanting folks to have access to healthcare and a living wage made me a rabid liberal. 🤷♀️

Second half of my most recent song, sung at open mic night this week. Pretty amazing. Thanks, friends, for singing along. 💜🎶💜

Mtw 25:34-40. The hypocrisy of those voting in favor of this bill while professing to be a Christian is astounding. Mtw 19:24 “I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

Today’s planned 6 hour bay swim was thwarted by lightning after 3. Still, it was a fun and rolicky 3 hours with good people. 😃
Also, someone who was convicted of 34 felonies has decided that Alcatraz should be rebuilt and reopened.🤨

Slightly rainy, but beautiful morning overlooking the Shenandoah river. Enjoy your Sunday 😊
Within hours of the admin threatening to eliminate the NEA, they started withdrawing and cancelling arts grants. The suppression of the arts is common in dictatorships. Keep creating! 🩵

Good morning from Maryland farm country. Have a great day!
The Kennedy center has decided that any front facing staff will not be allowed to protect themselves or those they care about. So that’s fun.

Good morning! Lovely last swim this morning in this gorgeous setting. Also, House Republicans have voted down an effort to block immigration enforcers from using federal resources to detain or deport U.S. citizens. Let that sink in.

Beautiful spring swim in the #chesapeakebay I’ve missed my swim fam. A chilly but lovely hour swim in 50°f. #coldwaterswimming

In 15 minutes Sen Booker will pass Thurmond’s record for holding the senate floor. I love that a Black Senator is going to beat the record of a racist white man who filibustered 24+ hrs to block Civil Rights. This gives me hope. Keep it going.

La Jolla. I swam w/dolphins, saw a stingray flutter along & was followed by a raft of curious sea lions. It was so healing to be back in ocean and find my joy again in the cold salty water. Great swims. Great people. Grateful

This is from the official #whitehouse account. WE FOUGHT A REVOLUTION TO RID OURSELVES OF A KING. America has no kings. This is abhorrent. This is not a joke. This is a crisis. & all of you celebrating this are sorely misguided. Wake up. Speak up.
