Maybe someday, women in America will have as many rights as guns do.

If you’re a blue dot in a red state, we should be friends.

This place is filled with all the positivity I’ve been missing and forgotten.

Thank you for that.

I’ll bet you 20 bucks that Bluesky will have more users than Twitter within the next 12 months. That’s crazy — but a GOOD crazy! 😄

The guy spend a chunk of his childhood in an internment camp because our government thought he might be dangerous because he was of Japanese descent. He was also gay when you were forced to hide it. It’s been much worse for a lot of people in our history. George knows what he’s talking about.

I know I’m early, but patience was never my strong suit.

I want to express my gratitude for all of you that are sharing in this journey.

It isn’t always easy, but there’s comfort in our fellowship. ♥️

If you still have a Twitter or threads account, start encouraging more people to join Blue Sky, especially if you are European. Twitter (X) is being used to manipulate elections globally and suppress information.

Post at least once a day, encouraging others to join. #bluesky

Someone suggested, not unkindly, that I need to get more serious in my postings here. More political.

Our family has been immersed in the serious & political. This has been a month like no other for us. I’m nesting, briefly, as we prepare for the challenging year ahead. Expect more pet photos.

The tax fight next year is going to be an absolute barn burner and it gives our side a perfect opportunity for moral and strategic clarity. They want to raise the price of stuff you buy and use your money to give more to corporations. Let’s keep it simple and let’s fight, after the holidays.

PSA: if you bought a frozen turkey for Thanksgiving, today is the last day you can start to thaw it in the fridge. You need 24 hours of thawing for every 4-5 pounds of meat. Remember to put your turkey in the fridge!

(Yes, I'm sure your organic fresh turkey or your not-turkey meat is delicious.)

Other than "staying alive," "staying a journalist and storyteller" & "not losing myself," my goals for the next few years include:

- Not dumbing myself down
- Not leaving my loved ones behind
- Being brave & kind
- Staying cute 😌

NEW: Politico reports that Kamala Harris is instructing her advisers and allies to keep her political options open. This includes another run for president in 2028 or a run for governor of California in two years: “I am staying in the fight,” she reportedly says.

Thoughts?

one of the things i like most about bluesky so far is being able to log in and find good things to read, and share good things I'm reading with others. such a basic, simple strength of twitter that had been decimated

Where there is darkness there is light, where there is ignorance there is enlightenment, and where there is fear there is bravery. Things are never so bad they can’t get worse and they are never so bleak you should surrender.

Can we agree not to forget the fact that Trump is a depraved sociopath, a convicted felon, an adjudicated rapist, an election denier who incited a violent insurrection to illegally hold onto power after losing in 2020, and now he’s after fascist rule and the demise of democracy—i.e., not normal?

If you are in Oklahoma or know others that are with school age children, please pass this along to them. Defense of Democracy created opt-out forms for Ryan Walter’s forced bible instruction. Let’s keep getting in good trouble!
