Streamed Supergirl last night. I had seen it in the theater and enjoyed it, but watching it again I was able to really appreciate what is driving Kara, the calls from Clark now make so much more sense. He knew she was spiraling, engaging in inappropriate grieving,

For anybody who might be attending LACon V I will be doing a table talk at 10:30 Sunday morning. I got added because I really do enjoy chatting with folks and being as helpful as I can to other writers and aspiring writers. So if you are up by then do stop by and join me.

If you are as angry and heartbroken as I am over the slaughter of our beautiful wild horses please contact the BLM and tell them. I just called and didn't get a person, but I left a furious message and my phone number. www.blm.gov/programs/wil...

Went and saw Spider-Man: Brand New Day this afternoon & I loved it. Some of the swing work made me feel like I was actually soaring through the streets of NYC. I laughed, got a teary eyed. It made me so happy to see Florence Pugh as Yelena. I love her, and even in a tiny cameo she just shone.

Protect Chaco Canyon

Tonight I’m writing to ask any followers/readers to please help us save Chaco Canyon from Trump’s seeming need to destroy anything of beauty.

Watching the live stream, and it seems like they are stalling. Has Trump tried to go to the Supremes? Aside from the fact it was a travesty that he put his name on the building in the first place, he had the gall to put his name above President Kennedy's.

I've got the live stream up to so I can watch the fascist orange blob's name come off the Kennedy Center. Plan to cheer loudly.

The vet cleared my horse Odyssey to go back to full work. We just need to take it slow about building him up to the upper levels in dressage. But as I was leading him over to the trailer to go home he stepped on the edge of my shoe and tripped me.

Worked with a friend breaking the plot of his movie script. He has a really great theme and how it ties into what is happening in our world. We got a big hunk of it done, and it's coming together really nicely. I love doing this, but it is mentally exhausting.

Such a lovely full moon last night. Sat on the patio and just listened to the quiet.

It's Memorial Day when we honor the fallen. My dad was too young for WWI and too old for WWII, but his younger brother served in WWII and miraculously made it home alive after landing at Normandy and being trapped in the Battle of the Bulge.

Okay, I stipulate that I am old. I saw the first Star Wars movie on opening day (at midnight because they had so many people they had to add extra showings) with my friend Vic Milan. My beloved father was dying & I was studying to take the bar exam.

Started watching Empire Strikes Back while I prepared dinner tonight, and of course couldn't stop watching. I love the movie so much. It gave me the push to quit the law firm and commit to being a writer.

May the Fourth Be With You Yes, I love Star Wars. It helped me decide to reach for my dream, leave the practice of law and start to write. Star Wars gave me my life and my joy.

I am gutted. Today the Roberts court spit on the sacrifice of thousands of Black people who endured beatings, arrest, and death to finally access the rights supposedly guaranteed to them by the Constitution. Democracy has only existed in this country for 61 years.

Bet Jim Comey really, really wishes he hadn't given that press conference 11 days before the 2016 election. if he hadn't help put Trump in office this wouldn't be happening to him.

My Loki is so smart. Had the Meezers outside while I emptied flower pots for spring flowers & of course they ate grass which guarantees they will puke. We get in the house, Loki lets out that Siamese wail that means "I'm going to barf.!"

I despise Trump with every fiber of my being, but I've lived through too many political assassinations, and I never want to see another. I want Trump removed from office by Constitutional means, tried in a court of law for his many crimes and sentenced by the rule of law.

Trump wants the Correspondents Dinner to be rescheduled because he's angry he didn't get to make his speech demeaning, insulting and belittling the press. A free press, like the rule of law, is essential for a stable democracy. Trump wants to destroy both.

Grimly amused how all the people who didn't bother to vote, or voted 3rd party, or voted for Trump because they just couldn't cope with the idea of a woman president are now screaming at the Democratic senators & representatives to Do Something! . Without facing the ugly truth --

I managed to iron all the napkins and placemats and a tablecloth from Thanksgiving. I usually keep putting it off until it's suddenly November and I have to iron them for the next Thanksgiving dinner. Please clap.

Went into Santa Fe early for breakfast at The Plaza Cafe, then walked up to the Roundhouse for the No Kings rally. Big crowd and we sang and laughed and cried and cheered. Here is one of my favorite signs.

Since my gaming group didn't play last night, I took myself out to see Project Hail Mary. It was so good. And such an interesting structure for the script. Worked really well.

It was a struggle to get this photo because Vento kept wiggling, and trying to eat grass, and spin around because just standing was _So Boring_! wish I had been riding Odyssey because he just stands after you halt and just chills, but Vento has no idea what chill means.

Went to my local gas station this morning. Only two pumps had petrol and only one had diesel. All the others were shut down. The station is out of fuel. Anybody remember the gas lines of the 1970s? Trump and the regime are such morons.

Took Odyssey out for a long trail ride today. We went with a friend whose mare can be crabby, but she really liked Odds Bods, even when he tried to nibble on her tail. Abby was able to show me the nesting owls. The nest looks like a woven basket with really thick twigs. And here's a picture.

Women in America have different rights depending on in which state they are currently reside, or even visit. Men have no such limitation on their rights. If the Save act passes women will have to go through added expense and effort to vote.

As William Faulkner said, Writing is about the human heart in conflict with itself. It should speak to the human condition. It should bring a smile to your lips, a tear to your eye, that swell of pride when a hero faces impossible odds and is victorious.

That ridiculous NYT article about writing romance novels using AI has prompted me to respond. I will _never_ use AI to write my books or my screenplays. And to people who rob me by using my labor and creativity to create AI slop know this... you are not writers. You are lazy thieves.

You haven't lived until you attend a Superbowl party at Sky Cinema with an audience made up of Latinos, Natives & Anglos. I'm sure a lot of folks were there for the game, but _all_ of us were there for Bad Bunny. People were dancing in front of the screen and doing the grito, that wonderful trill.

If the Republicans manage to force through the Save Act we have to counter this. Is there someway we could establish an organization that will assist people, particularly married women, to obtain passports.

I feel such sadness & yes rage over what has happened to our country. I worked so hard to make sure Former President Obama won New Mexico. I watched the returns come in with George and Parris. We were all on our feet cheering, crying with joy. It felt like America was finally facing our original sin

I wasn't feeling well today so I laid down to rest, and both Meezers came to be with me. They won't sleep with me at night, but they seem to know when I'm feeling puny and they always come to snuggle.

I'm white, so it's not my place to comment on how those racist images, posted by this pile of shit wrapped in human skin must have landed for my fellow citizens who are Black. All I can do is apologize that white voters put that monster back in the White House.
