Ents. Yes. Tons of them. Everywhere.

Even if you’ve never voted you can bring ID & proof of address like a utility bill & early vote now to Oct 30 or on Election Day Nov 3, 8am-8pm. Voting isn’t like a test you can leave questions or races blank if you’re unsure. Go to Idaho Secretary of State to find out WHERE you vote. Bring friends.

I try to imagine what people who WANT to blame democrats for this shit could possibly be telling themselves.

Dear Bluesky. It’s been ages. I’ve been all over the US & home to Idaho in time to pull weeds & watch snow falling & dream of wildflowers blooming in the high desert. I’d love to see you Wed. at the Stanley Library (Oct 15th 5:30pm.) 📕📙📒📗📘 Keep standing with your transgender neighbors & friends.❤️

Seattle #booksky let’s talk about how and why #queer people stay in the states they love. What does safety and community look like for us in states growing increasingly hostile?

Why govern or serve the people when you can raid the treasury daily and make millions, even billions off of so very very many aspects of serving as president?

Cole Nicole LeFavour @idahocole.bsky.social · 12/05/2026

In Idaho our safety is all about each other & knowing our neighbors. Government is protecting fewer & fewer people from harm, violence, unjust loss of jobs, housing, healthcare & essential services. So we reach out to each other & work to make them see the people of Idaho dissent from this cruelty

It is a brutal time. Hunkering down & connecting better is good in all scenarios. Many people need safe places to be. We need new collective models & need to remember that “we” are the majority. Closed primary elections & misinformation has left us to be governed by cowards & a tiny cruel fringe.

Cole Nicole LeFavour @idahocole.bsky.social · 01/04/2026

I hope some Boise peeps take you up on that. Very sweet.

Idaho Peeps, it doesn’t look good. No one’s going to save us but ourselves. I think it’s time to act accordingly. Connect, pool resources, reach out, create safe spaces, care for each other. Think beyond our circles. Network. Develop code/signals. Plant gardens. Stay low key. Be good to each other.

Once I thought the man had a soul. I am so sorry he does not and this is Idaho’s ugly state of being now.

Yeah. There are setting, ap deletings and better browsers and search engines... ditch that shit.

Oh! 💙 that's very sad to hear. We could hear the struggle. She put much good in the world. Will be missed. Love to you.

Is it really acceptable for any president to have a $75 billion private army?

Cole Nicole LeFavour @idahocole.bsky.social · 25/02/2026

I’m so sorry. It’s beyond brutal and unhinged and designed to make us all forget that this tiny group of people are exacting all this terror on good human beings against the will of the majority and to the detriment of the Idahoans they are supposed to actually be serving.

Cole Nicole LeFavour @idahocole.bsky.social · 18/02/2026

Yeah. You are correct. It's next week. Sorry to give you all a whole week to imagine the fun. Next week. Same sentiment.

Read this. This is your governor who DOES have power to do something choosing not to fight for you, your kids, or your community.

Cole Nicole LeFavour @idahocole.bsky.social · 18/02/2026

So glad you didn't either. Apparently much of the world would rather do something less soul killing for the evening.

Just wow. So someone thinks the whole Epstein thing is going to legitimize protecting all kinds of rapists? Such a fine public safety stance. Do better, Idaho.

Cole Nicole LeFavour @idahocole.bsky.social · 18/02/2026

Yeah, I usually watch the SOTUnion. Tonight, no. You couldn't pay me enough to watch that sadistic drivel.

I mean when your moderates are defending ice violence, firing a human rights commissioner for reasonable criticism, and the rest are voting yes, every day….

The Republican brand is at an all time low today, especially in Idaho—a bunch of racist, queerbashers intent on demolishing public schools and forcing people with disabilities into institutions. Who would run in this party?

Cole Nicole LeFavour @idahocole.bsky.social · 03/02/2026

Let’s be clear, nuclear fuel rods are MORE deadly AFTER use in a reactor. Yet now Dept of Energy gets test & run new power reactors in Idaho w/out public scrutiny or review of safety & potential harm to water, air, soil & wildlife? Where EXACTLY will they store the new waste for thousands of years?

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Screenshot of an X.com post by The Associated Press (@AP) stating that dozens of immigrant families protested for better treatment behind fences at a Texas detention facility, where a 5-year-old Ecuadorian boy and his father were sent after being detained in Minnesota. Below is a video thumbnail showing a crowd gathered outdoors along a fenced walkway; many people wear bright blue or red outerwear, and some hold signs.

Oh!!! Hello from Idaho. Tonight here the river is frozen and still somehow the water winds its way through, pushing channels in the ice to the ocean. The country may be in pain but it is so nice to virtually meet you. Thank you for YOUR fight for queer kids in KY. Excited to order YOUR book.

For all who died in ICE custody, for Alex & Rene Nicole, for those shot by ICE & survived, for the injured, scared, detained, for the many who died in fishing boats & when bombs fell on their city, for all those suffering & in pain from cruelty & neglect of this president, I lit a candle tonight.

Ugh. Just do something for humanity like make housing affordable and leave us alone.

Yeah. That handful of shows where the main humans have the most stunningly humane and compassionate responses to circumstances that make most others act like shits… gotta love those shows—The West Wing, This is Us, Ted Lasso…. Bless ‘em. Times like these we need ‘em to restore our faith in humanity.

Cole Nicole LeFavour @idahocole.bsky.social · 18/01/2026

Hey, elected leaders, unless you are actively trying to stop the daily violence and unconstitutional entries, searches, detentions, by ICE on our streets, then you are ENDORSING the terror Americans are feeling at the hands of these untrained, unrestrained, masked, mob of government employees.

Anyone else on #booksky notice how trippy it is that there are so many books on the market now that even one sale seems to jump a book 100,000 places on the Amazon best seller list. I’ve gotten as high as the 217,450 something best seller now from like 3 million books? www.amazon.com/Arms-Mountai...
