Just linked Pixelfed feed to micro.blog, but only the portfolio feed so you shouldn’t be too inundated with snaps from me. Gosh. I never thought I’d even consider having a photo portfolio. It’ll be a humble one as I’ve not had any formal training yet, and I’m only using an iPhone, but still. 😁📸📲
This might be the stupidest thing I’ve ever posted on LinkedIn
Saturday, May 20, 2023
🏳️🌈 I just posted this on LinkedIn with a link to another article on book banning. LinkedIn is where my new boss follows me. And my prior director follows me. And the director of the agency that approves who gets hired for any role in the state and who is thick as thrives with the governor follows me. …I may not leave it up for very long. Hey, everyone. I keep seeing articles and hearing news about the unprecedented number of challenges to LGBTQ+ literature, the unprecedented number of anti-trans bills being signed into law, the whole “anti-woke” wave that allows for the free expression of bigotry, Christian supremacy, racism, and homo and transphobia, and I feel like I need to explain something.

🏳️⚧️ I can’t imagine what it must feel like to be trans in America right now. To be under constant attack from clueless, dangerous, aggressive politician bullies and bigots. It has to be scary, exhausting, and maddening. If you’re trans, know that you have allies.
🎵Jackrabbits is probably my favorite Joanna Newsom song. Also, Go Long. Also, Good Intentions Paving Co. Also, Peach, Plum, Pear. Also, The Book of Right On. Also…

Republicans: Pro life? More like pro AFTERLIFE. Because people die. Because of their laws.

People - kids - are going to die because of this. Suicide rates will go up. By why should a republican politician start caring now about kids dying. They’re too busy suppressing votes, gerrymandering, cheating, lying, sucking Trump’s withering member, and adjusting their AK-47 lapel pins. The staggering fine print of Texas and Florida’s new anti-trans bills
I honestly think we’re doomed, I think Republicans and obscenely rich billionaires know we’re doomed which is why they only take care of themselves, I think our political systems and leaders have completely failed us over and over again, and I don’t think it’s fair. 😢🌎🔥
I sure do love this beagle.
Republican? More like Republican’t.
Republicans took the nation closest to the fiscal brink [[in 2011]]. The GOP’s ascendant conservative wing, known then as the tea party, seized on the debt ceiling to demand stark spending cuts from President Barack Obama, touching off a stalemate that rattled the stock market and prompted a costly downgrade in U.S. credit.
And you know they’ll blame Dems for this default if it occurs. Ugh!
Janet Jackson is auctioning off all her stuff. Like 100s of pages of clothing, jewelry, awards, and memorabilia. No idea why.
But I’ll tell you what: I would absolutely KILL for some of that Rhythm Nation 1814 stuff. Especially an 1814 hat (7 of them, worn by backup dancers)

Exactly! I’m disappointed in CNN, and I’m really disappointed in Anderson Cooper’s need to defend their decision. People died because of that guy. People literally were dying by the thousands each day while he was laughing about drinking bleach, and telling his dolt-filled cult to disregard science and attack and physically threaten scientists and doctors. While he was having his rotten life saved by the best medical service providers in the world only so he could drive around and flaunt his existence and wave his tiny hands at people from inside a limousine. And you wanna give this asshole more of a megaphone? And then insist it was the right thing to do? Shame. Shame on you, Mr. Cooper. You know better.
People have well made up their minds about this guy. Report on him, do it the right way, fling as much mud as it takes. But don’t give him or his cult a free pass. He’s had enough of them.
😿 Poor Maggie Cat. We’ve been fighting this sinus infection for going on a year. I thought we’d finally rounded the bend-she’s on an antibiotic that’s supposed to wipe out the 3rd bacteria (of 3), but she is still congested & having hard sneezing fits. More often than not they cause her poor little nose to bleed. It’s just awful. It breaks my heart.
🚧 I think I wrecked my micro.blog front-facing site somehow because it’s not front-facing any more. It’s not anything-ing any more.
