Billboard in Spokane. Blue text on white background reads "OUR CITY OUR RACE" in all capitals. In smaller text below it says "Sunday May 3RD Bloomsday.
Spokane what are we doing π€¦πΌ the fact the everyone on the marketing was so white they couldn't see how bad this looks says so much about this town.
If you aren't from here, Bloomsday is an annual 12k race

Smokey found some shrooms during #MentalHealthWalkies
Well my hair stylist's dad had an affair and for one glorious hour I forgot all the hardship of the world outside and gave 100% of my being into getting every ounce of tea.
I hope wherever you are the darkness is lifting.

Someone bumped into me and apologized and my brain struggling to decide between either "no worries" or "all good" instead responded "no good, all worries."

People will rarely make it convenient for you to rewrite their reality. There is no better time to speak up than as soon as you are able. My heart is with those made to wait so much longer than they deserved to let the world know their truths, and with all those still waiting.
The news recently has me thinking lately that yes, the truth will "SeT YoU FrEeππΉπ¦" but also it might tie you by the ankles and drag you through the gravel on the way.
Generally I'm all for self expression but I must admit I'm very confused on why we are bedazzling our teeth now. That just seems messy and uncomfortable to me.
I want you all to remember what we did to Ashlee Simpson when she got caught lip syncing on SNL and then go watch a clip of Kid Rock
Some people just wanna act like they have the whole game figured out when they're not even on the board.
Not even a slight exaggeration. I have the data. I did literally 10,000 steps of nervous pacing while on the phone in my kitchen today.
Since I'm developing a persona in town let me say it here:
It's "whistle person" not "whistle girl"

If you've donated to a bail fund or to a resistance worker's memorial but you haven't donated organizations doing deportation defense then you may have been influenced by white supremacy. Don't fight for freedom fighters harder than we fight for freedom.
Two guys in an Action Drains truck came out to mock protestors today. Don't give them your business. #SpokaneMagaBoycott
The technical term, in international law for this is "a smash and grab"
Okay my strategy was to open the door and say "hey I just wanted to check that you kids are okay? With all the screaming I want to make sure you weren't hurt or needing help."
"Oh we were just joking."
"Oh that's good, you see why I wanted to check right?"
"Yeah..."
And silence has returned
Two kids are in front of my house seemingly having a good old "Which one of us can scream louder" contest and I hate to be the "get off my lawn" type but...
Oh no! Wishing you get well and happy birthday and happy new year all together.
Although I'm leaving out the part where the kitten #TaviKitty fell in the bathtub and scratched my leg on her climb out. That was slightly less serene but fortunately more comical than painful. I love that #NiftyKitty our older cat came in immediately to check on us after the ruckus.
When I woke up this morning the darkness just felt so heavy so I asked myself to take a bath and listen to my book to wake up and warm up. I'm glad I did because the timing worked out it started snowing right as I left for #MentalHealthWalkies and it was very pretty and peaceful.
Today on #MentalHealthWalkies the nicest garbage truck driver named Jeff stopped his truck, waved, and asked if he could give #SmokeyDingo a treat. Smokey is always so aggressive to the trucks it was really nice this guy came out. Smokey got treats and scritches and did his tricks and was so happy.
My congressman talked a big game about restoring power to Congress when he was campaigning and here we are watching illegal wars and he's completely silent on the checks and balances front.
According to Reddit users DoorDash is doing "experimental" price testing on users. The account with higher delivery fees is being flooded with more discount codes which technically would negate the difference. Still hate it. F u capitalism.
I have two DoorDash accounts, one for work & one for personal orders. Today as I switched between them I noticed the delivery fee was $1.49 on one and $4.49 on the other at the same resto. I do not have dashpass on either account so it's not that.
If I had to offer some rankings...
Liberal White Supremacy was the most important book of 2025 for me.
Klara and the Sun had my favorite character.
The Lesser Dead for best horror.
Say Nothing was my favorite nonfiction.
Washington may regulate Flock in next legislative session: Amid a nationwide backlash over privacy concerns, state legislators are looking to clamp down on data retention for automated license plate reader cameras.
December Calendula blooms on my #MentalHealthWalkies in the rain today.
