I wanna get a boat this summer. Not for any reason in particular. Just so I can name it boatse.cx and see how many thumbs up I get. (Don’t click the link… I don’t know where it goes, but you probably don’t wanna go there)

I’d be more likely to support the mainstream media if they stopped white washing the news and writing headlines to garner clicks and page views.

Where were the comments about political violence and detestable acts from the Republicans when a MAGAt hunted and assassinated multiple Democratic politicians and had a list for more? Fuck them. I firmly believe that we are better off when those who celebrate discrimination are dead.

This is trans rights, too. There is no viable position for the Democrats other than “trans rights are human rights.” Trying to triangulate a position where you throw trans people under the bus “just a little” to woo swing voters only feeds the right’s argument that trans people are a threat 1/x

What choice do they have when the governor and general assembly refuse to fully fund RIPTA. I’m done with excuses from the Woonsocket delegation who voted against amendments to add additional funding, even if it had no chance in the House.

I also just came to the realization that so many people only think they hate Jimmy Buffett because they’ve (1) never allowed themselves to let go at one of his shows and (2) have never really listened to his songs and assume they’re all just dumb party songs like Cheeseburger in Paradise.

Went to the most random of concerts last night - Doobie Bros with the Coral Reefer Band opening. Ton of fun. Cried a bit during the Coral Reefers (RIP Jimmy). They were amazing and did a fine job carrying on his legacy. The Doobies were fun (I was high), but their voices… eek! Esp. Michael McDonald.

Went to Party with Pride at the Roger Williams Zoo last night. It was an absolute blast. Nothing but smiling faces, tasty beverages, fantastic pretzels, and animals who were happy it wasn’t stupid hot! I took one pic, of this cute elephant. The zoo is a true gem.

Note: either woman would still have done something similar. Maybe not Iran, but definitely bombing other nations. They just wouldn’t have gutted every bit the federal government beforehand.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

The Pride parade is one of the most feel good events. It was nice to see fewer corporate groups marching, fewer politicians (it’s not an election year, they’ll be back next year), and more unions and political action groups. It’d be nice if they could have a small police presence.

Unsurprisingly, the Providence Police are being royal dicks an hour before the Pride parade, not letting people to cross the street and have to walk several blocks. I can understand when there’s a lot of spectators, but there were fewer than 20. Guess you gotta be a royal POS to become a cop.

For years, we’ve raised the alarm about the devastating impact of underfunding transit. But RIPTA is still about $17M short of closing their budget deficit. Service cuts and job losses will affect countless people who depend on RIPTA to get around. TRANSIT IS ESSENTIAL.

The presence of unmarked vehicles and unidentified officers in our neighborhoods is sparking real fear, especially among our immigrant communities. I am calling on Governor Dan McKee to direct State Law Enforcement to stop using unmarked vehicles in our communities.

Left the Rhode Island State House feeling anxious about the state of our public transit network. Yes, we are grateful for the $15M annual funding in the House revision of the budget but that would still leave RIPTA with a $18M shortfall - facing 20% service cuts & 90 layoffs. 😞🚌

The fact that McKee is so opposed to updating the Access to Public Records Act should speak volumes about his character and the fact that he is wholly undeserving of another term. What does he have to hide?

A poster of a yellow chicken and a yellow background. There are black speech bubbles all around the chickens head. Each bubble had swords in them handwritten in white. Words are from bottom left around head to the right, each bubble word is in quotes. “Ha” “ha” “ha” “a joke” “taco” “man baby” “no creepy rambling losers” “no kings” “June14” and “weak ass.” Written in darker yellow on each side of the chicken “we have” “power” above the yellow words are 2 black lightning bolts. Below the yellow words are “more info bookings.org” and “fight for democracy” written in black. Artwork by Martha Rich (copyright 2025)
