We say that people don't notice constitutional regime collapse because it comes on too slowly but I'm not sure how much faster it could be happening; we are literally at concentration camps on day 9.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

If you’re not part of the resistance, you’re part of the problem. And stay out of the way of the people that actually care about this country and the human beings in it.

A variation of the Granny Stripe. Something to pass the time at the market. #crochet #stitching

Turned a blind eye. Thinking it'll never happen here, happen to us.

Cackle cackle

The courage and the strength that it took.

It’s on my list to do too!

Oh I like the title mango monster. I'll add it to the rotation. I've been calling him the melon felon.

In the Market today making new stickers. Lots more to come. Most stickers are pro-choice, pro women, and my body my choice. And a dragon for cutsies.

It's lovely! I'm a little late to the SAL but I'm starting this one soon!

Just FYI:

Current stitch. Almost complete. A gentle reminder for all of us. #crossstitch

Expect something loud and metal or loud and ragey.

Torres: There’s a Turkish proverb that says, “If a clown goes into a palace, the clown does not become a king; the palace becomes a circus.” We’re witnessing the transformation of the American presidency into a circus, with Tulsi Gabbard as the potential DNI and Matt Gaetz as the potential AG.

MAGA Has Meltdown Over Brutally Accurate '60 Minutes' Open About Trump's Cabinet Picks They can't handle the truth.

They can't handle the truth.

I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...”

...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

Ohh I love all of Fine Frog Stitching patterns. I really wanted to do the plants and petrichor SAL and the fungi & femurs SAL but I had so many unfinished that I had to really prioritize my list. And I'm knocking them out. But they are definitely on my to-do list!
