My grand (center) w part of heer Halloween coven: boo!

The grand puppies got up to be ringbearers at their other nana’s wedding. Why don’t they make star-sparkle, cake tier dresses in my size—it’s not fair!

After almost 37 years without booze, I promise sober’s easier than drunk. Who tf knew. Thanks to my son, Dev who gave me a reason, my wild-assed mother, and all the topless dancers.

gr8 flick!!

total dickweed

Guillermo del Toro’s #Frankenstein poured magnificence through me as I watched, still running through me. Like opera or poetry, it’s both vast & intimate. Can’t wait to watch again & again. Kudos!

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Years deep into my hardest #memoir abt what went wrong but also radiantly right bet sister Lecia and me. She is now five years gone, but she’s still talking to yours truly. She was born on this day 1953. Hallelujah❤️ #SisterLove #HappyBirthdaySister

When I pray for the devastated on the left coast, I conjure how hard it is to be another person, which takes me outa my noisy self. Nonbelievers say prayer doesn’t change things. But it often changes me, and I change things. #LosAngelesFire #PrayForLA #Prayer #YouDontHaftaBelieveSquatToPray
