Two new t-shirts. A bit too cold to wear at No Kings protest yesterday. Great to see all the people in the street yesterday!

Nice crowd in Iowa City too.

That may be true, but he has brought people together in ways I never thought imaginable. We just need to fight back and never give up.

Thanks for sharing this. So proud of my neighbors.

The people of Minnesota are fighting fascism all day, every day. They might be too busy to offer apologies for Trump. And across the country people are fighting back. We are doing what we can. We might not make the world we want, but we are going to try.

Only one of us fell off our horses as we galloped across the frozen Iowa pasture. It was a glorious to ride bareback in the midwestern winter (other than one person hitting the hard ground).

Great sign! I was there with you.. chilly as heck, but definitely worth it. Good crowd... good people.

Damn! We all need a few bottles of that! We are doing Dry January with a clause of suspension for a certain obituary.

Got to take a hometown visit and see two sisters, several old friends along with an unexpected traveling companion (life partner/friend/wife), just one day before this year's flu variant knocked me on my backside.

Excellent anti-grumpy post!

We may not be that lucky, yet. However, it is going to be a wonderful party when it happens!

Family and friends alike. My urge to slap has gone down measurably.

I hope nobody was injured. This country is not on the right track.

This is exactly how I feel. I love my community, but it might be time to look beyond my safe spaces. There is a damn fire burning.... always better to call things what they are.

I certainly hope they don't interpret your words to mean 'eviscerate'.

Doom despair and misery on us.... This can't be real.

Mediocre would be an improvement.

It is a stupid time to be alive, but we can't give up.

Monk @algrenfan.bsky.social · 28/09/2025

Yes, but we can't give up.

Thank you! Your response is reasonable and direct. We cannot be playing games with the wannabe-Nazi's amongst us.

Great news! Go Sioux City!

Looking forward to the season!

Some very wonderful people and energy at No Kings protest. Upset by assassinations in Minnesota. Giving thanks to RB Morris for the inspiration of my new t-shirt.

It is pretty damn good. Piano Man album is a close second, imo.

This palamino is sad because he is not a unicorn.

Love this way of looking at life. Thanks.

I was there, along with my trans daughter, and there was amazing energy. It is good to be around others who are threatened, frightened and still fighting back.
