Life moves even when the heart freezes.
Watching as the orange terror sets orange fires into our streets and skies.

🥰 is fitting for a Sunday Morning read

Happy No Kings Day, America. It couldn't happen at a better time.

True. They aren’t even creative enough to come up with something new. Still, it’s terrifying.

Oh, how I didn’t want to make this account political. Taking politics back to my personal account. For the record:
I haven’t drank the kool-aid, and won’t ever. I owe my dedication to the kind & wise people of America.
This is from an official US government site I just blocked.
No more of this 👇

A fake picture of an alternate reality white suprematist think the perfect working family will be when they “fix” America by ridding it all black, brown, and white people who disagree with them.

Because we were just given instructions to stay still and stay standing because of tear gas and foot traffic.This will change things.
Makes sense the a$& would attack our police force. He has no respect for civilians and civil servants, only the rich and the people he can order around.

Thanks!
I’ll share this with my group

I meant “Looked” I best correct my grammar.
But, yes you are correct.

I was too stunned as I was blocking and saw that.
I thought 💭 hmm, surely our government hasn’t failed in every department. I stand corrected.

You mean the. Non-nazis that haven’t drank the koolaid that love ALL people.
Like Jesus said to do.
Not this 👇

Poetic Means @puertodelsolpoet.bsky.social · 1d

Thanks
I look through some of these and totally freaked out
From our own government!
WTFuck!

Nicely put. I do my share to stop the spread. I have young ones and neighbors, I must.

It’s nice to sit back
Be quiet awhile
See the ones I love, laugh
Sink into these moments, knowing
I don’t need to be in the center
There’s a sweet comfort knowing
They are theirs and I am I
To be back a while
To sit
To and enjoy
Their laughter all the while, knowing
They are theirs and I am I

Not stuck in the mud
rather imprinted stillness

#Hope

Some days the only light
is the faintest within

When life has ground you
up into micro-plastics

And the only real option
is to see inner glitter

Where all others see
is a dim glimmer

It is a see-saw of sorts
A hopscotch of tears
