A Florida weatherman telling his viewers he can no longer be confident in his forecasts due to cuts to atmospheric science is the kind of resistance content I’m here for.

I’m unsure how to deal with family members who support T and genuinely don’t understand why that’s an issue. Are we in the wrong for setting boundaries about how much access they have to us? Do we need to keep working to bring them around? It’s hard to know what the best path is.

West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

LISTEN to Barack Obama: The most important office in this democracy is the citizen.
Freedom tomorrow is not a given—it has to be fought for.

Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials. Imagine if I had said to law firms that you will not be allowed into government buildings.
It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me

We just had dinner with a couple I met at a protest. They’re wonderful! We all hit it off, and even our waiter joined in on our conversation—we should befriend him, too. I love where we live. ❤️

All the calls to congress these days: “This is your daily reminder that the only way forward for ANYONE currently in Congress is to remove T, V, and M. We demand that from all of you.”

Has any new drug saved your life or the life of someone you know? If so, you can thank the NIH, which Trump and Musk are illegally destroying, in violation both of the law creating the NIH, and appropriations laws telling NIH what money to spend and how

Drove by the nearby Tesla dealership today—thought I’d pop in if there was a protest. It was dead, though. I think it’s closed after the Molotov cocktails a few weeks ago. 😂

How is everyone else continuing to function? I’m doing everything I can to distract myself and look for the good. But I’m emotionally drowning. Especially when I look at my kids. They deserve so much more than what the future looks like from here.
