Tomorrow I'm going camping with my boyfriend's kids and family for the first time since we started dating. I made dark chocolate sea salt cookies as an introduction.
Getting tired of hearing about how there are are more protesters in Albania than there were for No Kings Protests. It's not even a comparable situation but keep shaming people for going to work. If my workplace went on strike we would have a long term care crisis in our state.
Happy Father's Day to all the dads and especially to mine, who chose to step up and raise me as his own daughter when he was 21 years old. Now that I'm an adult who has raised two kids I understand what a huge deal this was. I love you Dad.
Buffy was my weekly safe space as a confused queer kid in Montana in the late 90s. RIP to a very talented and wonderful man. Why do all the wrong people keep dying?
Spent nine days offline driving 3,000 miles and seeing some very beautiful parts of the earth. Trying to decide if I catch up on some of the fuckery or just jump back in to current fuckery? Hmmmm, so much fuckery, such little time. Here are some pics of cool places instead.

This. This country is so sexist it doesn't even understand what sexism entails.
TW this poem is heavy. But I think it's important for people to read it. This is how it feels being a woman in this country. It's not women's responsibility to fix this. We've been dealing with your shitty behaviors forever.
Any woman who has had the misfortune of interacting with a misogynist ass knows this to be true.
We live in a weird version of Mean Girls but it's in a Nursing Facility.
