This is how we do it in Washington! No matter where you are, where you live, where you vote--VOTE LOUDLY! Vote early. We all need your voice! This is no time to remain silent!

Got this in the mail today!!! Completed, signed and sealed. Waiting for my roommate to arrive home so he can complete his as well, then we're off to the drop box. No time wasted! This matters!

I'm on medical leave, had a heart attack 10 weeks ago. Our teachers union and our democracy are under attack. I'm weak, dizzy as he'll from my meds, and I'm exhausted. But I'm here with my friends and neighbors, er um, I mean "paid protesters."

I will not be watching any executions. I will be reading a banned book at a prohibited drag show instead. Call me defiant. Call me woke. I call it being a decent human who knows history.

This is not even slightly exaggerated. Sadly this is truth.

This meme really asks one question: Is this the America you want? Because November 3rd is when Americans get to answer. Remember what youโ€™ve seen. Remember whatโ€™s at stake. Then vote.๐Ÿ”ต #USDemocracy #RisingBlue

Had a heart attack 8/1/26. Back to working full time 9/22/26. Have a gig 9/26/26. I'm so tired. But it's good to be back... in whatever capacity I can. Feeling temporary on this planet.

In the Seattle area this Saturday? Come see Abbey Cats live with our friends, Blurry May. @1928 Tap, Grill & Karaoke (145th & Aurora). My first show back after my heart attack-- I'd love to meet you! Come say HI and listen to some great music too.

We donโ€™t have to put up with this. Not these policies or these politicians or even this system of politics. It's time for us to chase out corruption and build a politics that actually responds to the people.

This heart attack has affected me so much, my doctor and I are considering permanent disability. This is the first time I've ever been through a medical event where I don't believe I'll recover. Sometimes your life changes in the blink of an eye.

As someone who went through it, I promise you, it was an occupation. Looked and felt like we were being overtaken. Iโ€™m still triggered as are SO many of us. I am changed from it, it was absolute terror.

These meds are kicking my ass. I'm so dizzy I cannot even imagine how I will return to work next week. My doctor has disappeared: "Practice closed." But this is the view from my couch. I will either be ok, or I won't. But no matter what, I've got my critters.

Look at this loathsome repulsive creature yelling at a reporter. In addition to the fact that heโ€™s the worst president in US history, heโ€™s one of the worst human beings on planet earth. His supporters have a very serious defect in their character.

Starting my cardio rehab today. Trying to find the energy to get dressed and go. Posting no pictures of myself today because I look as frumpy as I feel. So here's a picture of my dog being cute.
