Trump is a fascist dictator. There can be no more question about that and shame on ANYONE who defends him. Those who defend him are not patriots, they are privileged cowards - like so many enabilists in history. Or worse, they're surviving off the scraps of him shredding the constitution.

Why are Republicans silent, or worse defending, this military parade which is proposed to cost 45 million and also might do 16 million worth of damage to the DC area roads? I thought they didn't like waste, fraud, and abuse of tax payer dollars?

Loving #Expedition33. It's truly stunning, but for someone who struggles with visual spacial aspects the difficulty spike in Act II is something else. I took it down to easy and still can't hack it. I'll probably just have to watch the rest of it on YouTube. Sucks, but it is what it is.

No wonder my mental health is taking a beating. Trump is erasing democracy, my retreat to video games is being eroded by fat cat corporate greed, and the gaming "news" on YouTube is one giant hate fest. I can't escape it except when I'm writing or reading. No wonder I've been doing more of that.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Another day on this journey of being kinder to myself. I woke up motivated to write and when I find myself thinking "this is awful, no one will read this, you are wasting your time." I told that inner voice to shut up and pushed through. It's a small breakthrough, but it takes small victories.

Hold fast to dreams For if dreams die Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly.   Hold fast to dreams For when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow.

The state of this country is dire, most of us know this. Now, YouTube has quietly allowed an admitted predator to be monetized again. Clearly, they heard the message of this new administration loud and clear.

How has it only been 10 days since Agent Orange took office?! It feels like a lifetime already. The news conference today was nightmarish. Console people don't cast fake blame. I can't!

"The Golden Age of America begins right now" I think he meant the 2nd Guilded Age.

What a stunt. Tik Tok wasn't even down 24 hours and back up before Agent Orange official gets sworn in. Apparently after wanting it removed during his first term he saved it now before he actually has power. What a crock.

Deleted Instagram and Facebook today. If they're good with spreading misinformation and making it a generally terrible place to engage then I refuse to participate. I'll worry about how to promote myself later when my book is closer to being done. 🤷‍♀️

I don't normally enjoy TV and movies, but #Arcane is incredible. The animation, soundtrack, and story are all so good.

First eye exam in my adult life and I'm 41. They told me to cover my left eye and my world went absolutely blurry and I couldn't see a thing. #growingpains
