From a book I'm reading, a quote from Adrienne Rich “There must be those among whom we can sit down and weep, and still be counted as warriors.” Incredible quote, and very appropriate for the book "The Tell: A Memoir" #booksky

The Trump administration has delayed a final decision on Endangered Species Act protections for monarch butterflies, with a new deadline of June 6, 2030. Monarchs remain without protections while the decision is pending. The agency could act sooner, but this agreement allows years more of waiting. 😔

Subverting democracy isn't new to John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett. All three were on George W. Bush's "Florida Recount Team," which lay the groundwork for stopping vote counting in Florida—and Bush v. Gore, the politically-motivated SCOTUS decision that gave Bush the election.

Image ALT: I asked men and women the exact same question: "If you were guaranteed safety after dark, what would you do?" Some of the men didn't even understand the question. The women did. "I'd go for a walk." "I'd sit alone on a park bench." "I'd go dancing." "I'd just... be outside."

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Just a reminder that people don’t always realize they were raped in the immediate aftermath. It can take hours, days, months, and even years to realize you were raped, and it doesn’t make it any less true. There are many kinds of responses, including fawning and trying to appease your rapist

If you're angry about the men at Cornell University, wait until I tell you about the men in the White House, the Pentagon, health and human services, and on the Supreme Court.

Samuel Alito has recused himself from a Supreme Court climate case, after ethics watchdogs uncovered his fossil fuel stockholdings. Instead of relying on the justices to occasionally do the right thing, we need Congress to enact real SCOTUS reform.

#FantasyIndiesSeptember Day 30: monthly wrap up Overall, the world hasn't imploded in my neck of the woods - yet. I finished my WIP. Tolkien Week! My books might be on the shelves of my local bookstore (more later). The scent of Halloween is in the air. I'm getting back into fun origami. 😎

WSJ Exclusive: The Trump admin used federal funds from the Department of Homeland Security to finance those controversial pro-Trump ads that started airing on TV. The taxpayer money used to fund the ads came from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

White House calls the spots public-service ads, but critics argue using taxpayer money for campaign-like messaging may violate federal law.
