Reggie Miller is my rep. I put a sign up in my yard and helped write postcards to get her re-elected. Many people in my circle went to bat for her hard and this vote is a slap in the face to trans kids and adults, LGBTQIA+ people, and allies who believed she was better. 🏳️🌈

This is my niece, Chloe, and her horse, Rev. After only two years they realized that Rev had debilitating pain, and they asked me over for some portraits before they had to say goodbye. I hope these photos serve to remind Chloe of their special bond. Rest in peace, Rev. 🩵🐴📷

Okay, first of all, I'm a slow reader. And second, I've been working on a SIXTY-PLUS HOUR audiobook since December! Brandon Sanderson really does a number on my book goals...

Angry post that I might delete later BUT
The audacity to call others "dishonest" when everything you say is lies. Even in this post you claim to have been credited with "the Best Opening Month of any President in history." By you. You're the one crediting yourself you lying piece of human trash.🖕

Please pay close attention to framing. This statement is presented with no compassion, only numbers and indirect effects on "normal" citizens, and feels like the first steps in stripping away the humanity of the "Parasite Class" as Elon Musk put it in a post on his Twitter account last week. (5/🧵)

This was used by the German government as a way of testing the public's reaction, and would lead to "Aktion T4," a widespread involuntary euthanasia program, which the government used to justify the killings of 300,000 physically and mentally ill people during World War II. (4/🧵)

Let’s talk about this White House statement regarding the “Make America Healthy Again Commission.” In particular, I’d like to highlight this paragraph addressing the number of children and young adults with chronic illnesses. (1/🧵)

This latest update is so blatantly hypocritical I can't fathom how anyone could be on board. This part here essentially states that executive power should be used responsibly so the Founders put ALL EXECUTIVE POWER in the hands of ONE person. Does the right really not see this?

Trump's nominee for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, has a history of offensive and dangerous conduct.
He's faced accusations of sexual assault and his own mother has called into question his character and treatment of women.
Call your Senators and tell them to vote NO!

Everything Bill Peet. He wrote and illustrated picture books, and was also a Disney animator. At the time, I wanted to grow up to be just like him. 😆 💙📚

@thestorygraph.com 2024 wrap up! No surprise that my longest book was a Stormlight Archive novel. A Monster Calls was one that hit me hard in all the right ways. Swordheart & Clockwork Boys were surprise hits for me. Picked up Paper Girls at the end of the year and LOVED it.
