Hello! My name is Tofu and this is my intro. Some facts about me: I've lived in the Pacific Northwest since 2017 and have found my peace here. I am a happy husband, social worker, and aspiring one-time published novelist. I am bilingual and speak fluent Spanish. I voted 🔵. Feel free to follow! 😁
I don't watch a lot of TV but this is what I'm looking forward to next year.

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish.

Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part.

Who’s with me?

Ooh ooh I am on Mistborn book 2 and I understood that reference! 🤩 She's definitely not of this world, that's for sure!
Have you considered the possibility that she is a kandra? #crempost #cosmere
She stole my spot, and now she's stealing my Brandon Sanderson! We love a literary puppy 🤓

This is infuriating and makes no fucking sense! They don't know what to do because there's no precedent for it, but that alone is not enough of a red flag to not let V for Velvetta run the country? Da fuq?

Thank you to my lovely wife @armlarnantors.bsky.social for the Brandon Sanderson books for my birthday (turning 33, turning 33 🎶). 🥰 Thank you eternally for understanding and accepting me as your partner and best friend in life every single day.

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with a singular purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.

New: Mayor Adams’ office has ordered all city agencies to set up accounts on BlueSky.

An agency staffer tells me the move comes after city employees have complained about not wanting to continue using X amid growing "fascist" sentiment on the platform. www.nydailynews.com/2024/11/14/m...

Apparently it's rubbing some people the wrong way that Elongated Muskrat fancies himself "co-president". 👀
Elon Musk may already be overstaying his welcome in Trump's orbit
Musk has been a near-constant presence at Mar-a-Lago, where he has sat in on important meetings and calls.

Was there today for the H.R. 9495 vote (bill that would have allowed labeling nonprofits as terrorist supporting organizations).

Voted no, of course - but I do want to report that the activism DID work and persuaded members.

I thought it’d be a lonely NO vote, which we take often. It wasn’t.

MAJOR BREAKING NEWS:

In an absolutely stunning and disqualifying resurfaced clip, Trump’s selection for Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said America “should not have women in combat roles.”

RT so every American sees how awful Donald Trump’s decisions are.
