Question: When did every public restroom strip away all signage for handicapped restroom stalls? It's starting to feel like a deliberate erasure going on to rid the place of us.

All day long I've been in a low level of panic over politics and authoritarianism. Flying home in a week and panicked over going through INS and TSA. I'm an American with some ancestors getting there way before 1776 and still I am afraid.

Great, just great. A convicted felon as president and a convicted felon as ambassador voted in by a Democrat.
"Senator Cory Booker broke from the Democratic Party to confirm convicted felon Charles Kushner—father of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner—as the new U.S. ambassador to France."

Why Did Cory Booker Vote to Confirm Jared Kushner’s Dad?
Cory Booker promised to stand up to Trump. But he and convicted felon Charles Kushner go way back.

Is the death of George Floyd going to be the litmus test for if my friends are racist or not? Few of them know I am mixed race. It's not something I routinely disclose, but now I feel I must. Such a fucked up time to be an American.

Sweet Jesus! Just over on X talking about the huge mistake releasing Chauvin would be, how I've cut off all my racist friends in the aftermath of George Floyd's death and the first thing that happens is a friend I didn't know was racist starts trying to say Chauvin didn't kill Floyd.

Could use some prayers. Have been unable to maintain proper oxygen stats here for the past two weeks. They keep bouncing between 88 and 94. I know it's the location (17 miles from a smoking volcano) Please God, I only need to make it here another 24 hours then I'll leave.

Today was incredibly hard. Family interactions with my family of origin are always fraught with landmines. Recovery is hard. This morning I realized I was like a tiny fragile child who has barely scratched the surface of the healing I need. It was a sobering realization.

Wow! I had to break off a formerly close friendship that had turned toxic slowly. This describes the why all too well.

What an unbelievably hard week. What happens when the caregiver for a cancer patient gets so sick they need to run to the hospital? Nothing good.
