I call fun reads "candy books." I love to consume them, but they're not really adding anything to my life if I read too many.

happy Pride Eve to all the people who are about to paraphrase this tweet from 2022 or repost it with my name removed as if it’s a thought they just had themselves

Goo morning, monsters. Roar. Asking changed nothing. Pleading was even worse. So roar, roar until their eardrums ring and they can hear nothing else.

I've been thinking lately about the countless activists during the Civil Rights era who fought for the Voting Rights Act — including my friend Mickey. He was my protector. I want to share a little bit more about what he meant to me.

Don't taco Tuesday this shit. Millions of people spent the day wondering if they would get vaporized, and no one in our government stood up to him. Nothing cutesy about it.

Can't someone just... arrest him? He's an old man. Just slap some cuffs on him & drag him away from all the big red buttons.

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

To add to that, if you don't have space at home, find a community garden. Just home from prepping ours for the summer.

As an experienced gardener, I still go out 2 hours after planting my veggie garden & stand there with my hands on my hips, demanding results. Gardening TAKES patience, which is why I have none.

Our neighborhood mechanic's house got hit by a tornado last year, & he was fighting with the internet company, who wanted him to restart the modem, when the whole dang pole was just.... gone.

Daniel (15) is on the school bowling team but he's the only one who doesn't have his own ball. He often has to rent one which embarrasses him. Daniel is one of the few Latino bowlers in the district and believes he bowls for a purpose greater than himself. Can Alice pay for a new ball?" YES!

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

This can’t be repeated enough. Not only won’t they investigate, they may never even tell us who did this. Think about the message that sends to the next ones. Nobody is safe.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

As someone who consistently grows lettuce from seed, I didn't know the daisy thing, but good heavens, the conditions are always right for lettuce to decide they don't want to be lettuce anymore, & just wanna be pretty, bitter flowers instead.

If you substitute 'child' for the various drug references in Maduro's indictment, it could also be used for him.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

TONIGHT in Philly, we're getting together to make art centered around activism (environmental or whatever's important to you) This event is FREE! I'll have everything you need! I'll even give ya free beer & cheese (thanks to cheese sponsor Perrystead Dairy)! You just need to RSVP luma.com/w8v2xk5i
A possum screams "Make the world better with art!" in a little beret with bags under his eyes, holding a paint pallet. The title says Bad art for good an art & community event. The possum is painting an easel that says "Leave your leaves to help species", with a scrawled possum giving "ta da!" hands popping out of a pile of leaves.

I get a lot of good ideas in the shower and today I thought about an app called “Primary Everyone,” in which you could put in your voting district to see who sucks ass the worst and when you can fire them

I love it! I've been reading it in my free time on Libby for months, but then running out of library loan time, so I finally bought it for myself for my birthday. Needed to be able to hold it in my own hands.
