Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

I’m grateful for this bravery.
Trump’s HHS put me on “non-disciplinary” admin leave today. This was retaliation for speaking up. Moves like this are designed to silence us. Let’s not let.

I guess I am hitting a nerve, because they just put me on admin leave.

Smoke tree or smokeshow?

I warmed up leftover roasted cauliflower for lunch and my house smells bad. There will be other humans here soon, and I’m considering warming up a snickerdoodle just to see if the cinnamon sugar might balance out the vegetable stink.

She’s so pretty! Usually, I can read her mind and she is telling me she is hungry. I’m not sure what she’s thinking about here.

If you ask me to visualize complete contentment I will picture my dog with some peanut butter on her nose.

My day may have peaked already. I stirred up a jar of peanut butter without spilling any of the oil over the side.

I went out into the big world and Silver Bells came onto the car radio. I would like to propose that holiday lights can happen any old time. Leave them up year round if you want — that’s fine. But in return, can the music wait until after Thanksgiving? Pretty please?

The referenced post keeps popping up on my timeline today and every time I see it I feel like I just smashed my head into a wall.
Seriously? He has no idea how insurance works or how to govern. I’ll never get over 77 million people thinking a man this incompetent belongs anywhere near the Oval Office.

Sometimes there is news on a Friday that doesn’t induce nightmares!
BREAKING:

A federal judge in Oregon just issued a permanent injunction barring the Trump admin from deploying the National Guard to the streets of Portland.

Trust has been broken. She went to the groomer and in doing so, missed lunch. I made it up to her food wise when she came home, but she is making sure I feel guilty.

Tried to blast up the volume when Nirvana - Breed came on during my run, but found I was instead exuberantly hitting the Speed+ button on the treadmill. Whee!!!

This sums it up beautifully.
Mamdani: "New York City, breathe this moment in. We have held our breath for longer than we know. We have held it in anticipation of defeat, held it because the air has been knocked out of our lungs too many times to count, held it because we cannot afford to exhale."

I’m drinking my horrifically tannic oversteeped tea as penance for forgetting about it. They should call it ADH-tea. It involved multiple boilings of the electric kettle just to get the thing brewed to start with.

Matthew Lillard from the "Scream" screening at Hollywood Forever:

“Fuck ICE! In this time, in this city, we need to lead with love. Do not forget that shit in this moment. Not to be political, but to be political as shit. Second of all: vote Prop 50. And if you don’t like that, I’m so not sorry!”

Just ran from one room to another in my house to look out the windows because sunbeams are cool!

Putting on a duvet cover is like trying to do geometry while in the middle of a wrestling match.

Wait, pretend it’s still Halloween! I meant to post this picture of a millipede I saw on a walk a couple weeks ago - I had been saving it for the festive occasion, but I forgot!
