I’m in Austin and neighbors with James. So maybe it’s too easy here? But all I’m hearing is huge enthusiasm!

I’ve been slacking off on BlueSky for over a year. Sorry! What I have been doing though, is block walking for @jamestalarico.bsky.social , protesting ICE and KINGS, and trying to remain positive in the darkness of this administration alongside my love, @briguyatx.bsky.social Miss y’all!

Remember Aesop’s Fable, ‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf’? It taught a valuable lesson about the consequences of lying. It stuck with me when I was a kid. It’s clear our president never read any of Aesop’s Fables. I just want to know when, for the love of our country, will he finally get eaten by the wolf?

What this administration is doing to my heart rate, and my anxiety, is insane. But what this administration is doing to our country, and its people, and its allies, is absolutely terrifying. We need to wake the fuck up.
My resting heart rate going from 68 to 80 in the past two months that Trump has been in office.

I am so sorry, Ukraine. 🇺🇦 What I wouldn’t give to have an honorable, fearless, truly decent leader, like President Zelenskyy.

Rachel Maddow just slayed her own company and I could not be more proud of her! She is fearless!!! Not only that, but she was not afraid to press Hakeem Jeffries to DO WHAT IT TAKES FOR DEMOCRACY.

One of the most jaw-droppingly beautiful sites I’ve ever seen was Denali in August of 2021. It will always be Denali to me.

I think about this often with my mom. She’s 75. And her dream in high school was to be president. She instead dedicated her life to education. Im so sorry for our moms.

I understand that if they rigged it, it’s not a bigger thing FOR SURE. I’m not the enemy. I will never understand fully what that man is trying to say. I do understand that elections are at stake. I am a voter registrar and a volunteer for the Democratic Party. I want to work together. Not argue.

We are on the same side. I am just trying to focus on the bigger things. For ex. suddenly only 2 sexes in our country? Birth-right citizenship is on the line? I HOPE they rigged it and I HOPE they suffer the consequences! I just don’t think that’s what he was incoherently rambling on about.

I found these at a thrift store for $7! And they happened to be my size. I only wear them when registering voters, door knocking, voting myself, or celebrations like this day 4 years ago. 💙

100% agree. We are f*cked. So we have to stay diligent. I am depressed that we once again have to do that for another 1.460 days. But tomorrow I will get up and do everything I can to change that. Together we will get through this. I hope.

I did watch. I am fully appalled by Trump. What I took from it was that Elon ‘saved’ Trump this go around, from it being ‘rigged’ again. To be clear, I do not support Trump at all and I cannot believe he was re-elected. But listen again as if he’s talking about 2020 vs 2024.

4 years ago was such a happy day. Wore my pearls, my RBG collar earrings, and my lady liberty chucks. Today, it’s yoga pants and depression. I cannot believe we are doing this again.

I watched the clips. And as much as I hate to believe that many Americans are brainwashed enough to vote for Trump, he was talking about the dems ‘rigging’ 2020. He was saying if they hadn’t, he wouldn’t have been able to be president during ‘26 and ‘28.

Can someone explain the Trump and Melania meme coins to me like I’m five? I am an idiot when it comes to crypto. Other than it sounding really grifter-ish, what’s it about? And is it illegal? Or should it be?

So I guess everyone who uses TikTok is moving to RedNote since TikTok is about to be banned. But RedNote is just another TikTok, also from china, with a more ominous name. I feel like I’ll look back on this post in 5 years and laugh. At either my ignorance or my brilliance. BlueNote, anyone?

Once again, our POS governor decides he’s above the law out of pure spite and pandering to Trump. The Flag code says flags must be half staff for a full 30 days after the death of a president.
Statement from Texas Governor Greg Abbott that flags in Texas will be full staff on Inauguration Day even though that violates the Flag Code.

My favorite band I’ve never seen live. Had tickets to see them in London, 1995, (aging myself) but unrest in Paris with trashcan bombs, etc, delayed my flight from Rome by a day and I missed the concert. I was so sad!!

I was looking through an Annie Leibowitz book last night that I’ve had for years and haven’t thumbed through in forever. Came across this photo of Jimmy Carter’s campaign headquarters in 1976, Plains, GA. Even his presidential campaign headquarters were humble. ♥️

So I know it was hard to follow that ridiculous press conference today that touched on ‘all the hits’ like changing the Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America, and ‘all hell breaking lose’ in the Middle East on 1/20. But did anyone catch that apparently Hezbollah were the actual insurrectionists on Jan6?
