Just a gal in Nor Cal doing the best I can. Gardening, politics 💙, cooking, reading, tie-dyeing, wannabe homesteader. Learning to be more self-sufficient in this capitalistic hellscape, and doing my part to smash the patriarchy. 🔨

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”
Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me
In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

It truly is. WTF are we even doing.
The cognitive dissonance of getting up every morning and making coffee and walking the dog and going to meetings and answering emails and wondering what to make for dinner while there is a real live actual coup d’etat happening is BONKERS

I know all of us who understand what is happening are experiencing mental health challenges because of that.

The only message of comfort I can offer to this community of readers is this: you are correct.

What you think is happening is really happening, and is just as concerning as you think it is.

I say we go with all four points.
Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything

3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can

4. Citizens march en mass

At what point is enough enough? Like, how far down this pit do we fall before it's time to DO SOMETHING?! Congress isn't going to save us. Judges that have been loaded onto the bench at every level by the GOP are not going to save us. What now?!

I work for an agency that provides us with "high quality" health insurance. I recently found lumps in my breast. I just had my mammogram. AFTER insurance, I owe $515 out of pocket. This is why American women don't get regular care and instead get breast cancer. #MedicareForAll

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

*must stop doomscrolling*

I think it was last week, or maybe the week before, we gave our goats and chickens a couple of forgotten stale gingerbread houses.

I thought I was getting a cute video of Pablo chowing, but peep my guy in the background doing a secret quality control test. 🤢🤣

“Cowardice asks the question, ‘Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question, ‘Is it politic?’ But conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’ And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.”
