The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Is there anywhere that has the vote records of who voted for the current #senatevote ? I can see the current Roll Call and I know we are waiting for one but I'd like to know which Dems sold out. #shutdown #democratscaved

In #showmeyourknits 🧶 the prompt is "Baby" 👶 I haven't knitted much for babies. The only baby knitted gift I have done is a set of 8 Washcloths with Raised Designs. And I took almost no pics. Here are two of them, though it is hard to see in the picture.

Two small washcloths knit in a light blue green. One has a raised image of a rattle and the other a crescent moon. They are laid out against a faux wood floor.

A group of men violently assaulted a transgender veteran in Seattle walking home from work. They cited Trump's trans military ban as they beat her. One of the perpetrators was already wanted for domestic violence and was previously charged with a hate crime. www.thestranger.com/news/2025/03...

A passage of text describing an incident where a victim was attacked by two men who punched and kicked them. The victim escaped into a restaurant, pursued by the attackers, but was protected by customers. The attackers reportedly used the phrase "Semper Fi" and referenced "Trump ending transgender acceptance in the military." Police arrived shortly after.

📚🌈#books #reading #booksky I started & finished The Martian Contingency by @maryrobinettekowal.com this week. I will probably re-read the series to have the full cast of characters but one of the subplots was the discussion about the use of the word "Colony" for leaving Earth 🧵

The 🧶yarn community is the best. After panicked msgs on Ravelry last night I was able to contact someone who is sending me another skein. Thank you to that someone! You know who you are. I adore the fiber arts community for its mutual aid. #knitting #community #appreciation

🧶Knitting Achievement unlocked - Starting a cardigan assuming the "sweaters worth" of yarn you bought 3 years ago would be enough cuz it is a sweater, right? Wrong. I realized after completing the back and halfway through one of the fronts that I was lower than I should be. Math says I'm screwed.

For #showmeyourknits this week the prompt is #colorwork I haven't done a lot of colorwork. It is on my list for this year. But I did explore Double Knitting with this super simple trivet.

Fucking this. The thread is good, but this is gold. Trump & the GOP & Musk are responsible for bringing the bullshit bill to the Senate. Schumer and other Dems who voted for Cloture looked at the SINGULAR way to stand up and said 'nah'.

For #showmeyourknits 🧶in Green Current WIP, a cardigan for my lovely wife. This was me measuring the back. It may be more of a Blue Green than Green but so be it. Also the St. Patty's Day Socks I made for my parents 50th Anniversary on 3/17.

A knitted lacework w/mock cables cardigan in progress in a blue/green yarn with a measuring tape laid over it.

4 pairs of socks. Two are white with green speckles. Two are a bright shamrock green with cables. Against a red quilt background.

I mean... it is probably too late. Schumer has caved. And likely did after securing the other Dems who will cave. But this is a good explanation of what the caving looked like.

The thread is worth a read. And this. I turn out basically no matter what. But I know others who do NOT bother when it is clear the candidate has gone so far to the right.

I'm here and stuff. I closed down Twitter years ago. I've been stubborn about coming back to micro-blogging. But trying to stay up to date. Just got back from @jococruise.bsky.social, def want to follow Trans info like @erininthemorning.com and hopefully some knitting stuff.
