Cue Sarah McLaughlin’s “I Will Remember You”

Mostly Hopeful@mostlyhopeful· Jul 9

Which is your favorite? I indulged a creative moment.

Business Suit Satan leaning on coffin containing an aspiring dictator/adjusticated rapist/convicted felon. Flames surround Business Suit Satan (BSS) and coffin. Background is a serene grassland with rainbow in the cloud-streaked blue sky. BSS has a thought bubble exclaiming, “I DID THAT!” like the gas station memes of presidents trump & Biden claiming responsibility for increased gas prices.

Cartoon of anamorphic Soda, Fries, & Burger pointing to a coffin containing an aspiring dictator/adjusticated rapist/convicted felon. The burger is pointing to the felon while the soda has a speech bubble exclaiming, “ We did that!” Flames surround the coffin. Background is a black sky illuminated by joyous celebratory fireworks.

Cute Grim Reaper holding a scythe next to coffin containing an aspiring dictator/adjusticated rapist/convicted felon. Flames surround cute Grim Reaper (CGR) and coffin. Background is a a solid light blue with cartoon: white outlined stars, red hearts, rainbows, and rainbow-haired unicorns; glittering the background. CGR has a speech bubble exclaiming, “I DID THAT!” like the memes of presidents trump and Biden accepting responsibility for increasing gas prices at the pump.

I understand that “fit fine” is purposefully vague, but I’m not sure in what context “fine” or “fit” would have applied to this. Certainly this is evidence for perjury charges? Come on, @housedemocrats.bsky.social - I want to see some accountability! He is straight up Theon Greyjoy in this analogy.

I’m hoping it means they will both be on the other side of a holding pen. Perhaps even the same one? That matters less to me than them receiving the justice owed to them for breaking functioning societies. apple.news/A9sTKyPEHQ16...

Teachers and other employees across America literally got fired for posting something like this on their social media accounts upon the death of a certain recent GOP darling.

Apple continues to embarrass itself and us with this kowtowing to a rapist pedophile. I am so mad at Tim “Apple” for what he has done to Steve Jobs’ company.

Look who loves being outside (while he can! Hard freeze tonight!) on this sunny and pleasant day. ❤️🐶

HGS was in 2023. (Or at least that is when I made this graphic and matching earrings)

Hot pink and red-orange background with a yellow sun. In the foreground is a guillotine and in cursive, the phrase: hot guillotine summer

I got to take this picture of her when I went to see her on her presidential campaign trail and I love her so much.

Decided on my airport read. Thank you, @sarahkendzior.bsky.social & @andreachalupa.bsky.social for this (unfortunately) timely book. And thank you, @leftbankbookshop.bsky.social, for shipping it all the way to Texas, safe quarter for many of the enablers/chaos agents who “ helped” us get here. 😭

The image shows a copy of Sarah Kendzior and Andrea Chalupa’s book, titled: Dictatorship It’s Easier than You Think!

Mine has a bloom and several buds on it! I’m assuming this is quite early but this is my first year with the bush (when i planted it in the spring, it had blooms already established). Novice blueberry bush tender over here!

Look at how obviously #gerrymandered and precision-cut these districts were! Surgically selected to dilute progressive votes. Yes, my TX state rep voted in favor of bending his knee to the fascist wannabe dictator felon/Manchurian candidate POTUS. Nothing weaker than the Texas GOP.

Corrupt, gerrymandered Texas districts from the new maps forced upon Texans without a vote.

Zoomed in image of a very specific and small cutout where 3 districts are overlapping. Clear evidence of unconstitutional acts by the Texas GOP.

Mostly Hopeful@mostlyhopeful· Dec 6

As it turns out, I will be losing my only representation in DC, @repfletcher.bsky.social, because of the SCOTUS decision. A decision so unconscionable, the cowards won’t even sign it. District 8 was unconstitutionally carved out specifically to impact Congresswoman Fletcher and her constituents.

A VERY happy 9th birthday for this lil dude!

A very cute, black & tan pomeranian who looks like he is smiling at the camera because in front of him is a small, pink bone-shaped treat with a red icing balloon on it.

Mostly Hopeful@mostlyhopeful· Oct 15

Quite literally the opposite of “balanced.” Texas is gerrymandered af, so no accurate “pulse” because the GOP has found a way to make 60% a minority.

What happened to Charlie Kirk shouldn’t have. And I hope we *finally* do something about unfettered access to guns. “Brady Bill” (a 1993 law) can be the template and it could be named after Charlie. (Whatever it takes - Congress: DO SOMETHING!)

Image of white text on a red background that reads: “What happened to Charlie Kirk shouldn’t have. And I hope we *finally* do something about unfettered access to guns. “Brady Bill” (a 1993 law) can be the template and it could be named after Charlie.”

Unfortunately, never gets old - or wrong. 😢 Just received this book in the mail from Left Bank Books in St. Louis, MO. Her work is a tether to a reality that exists beneath all of the political gamesmanship (and abuse, frankly). If we couldn’t listen to her then, can we PLEASE listen to her now?

The image is of a Magic 8 ball that reads, “Sarah Kendzior was right” in the foreground; in the background is a bokeh image of an American flag with abstract flames (representing the burning down/destruction of our country as we know it signifying that Sarah tried warning us long before our institutions devolved and decayed as much as they have in an 84 year-long 8mos timeframe.)

My son is feeling summer vibes! I’m a huge fan of his tiny glasses. Will entertain mom for cheese. #WillWerk4Treats #Fashion #DogsofBluesky #Pomeranian

Spotted this giant swallowtail on my Meyer lemon… going to check for eggs and/or caterpillars (eventually)!

So, we cut all of these critical foundations of society to give billionaires even more unearned wealth, and we are STILL adding to the deficit? F* that

Well, that was… something. This is my Oura ring tracking my physiological response to the last 3 episodes… with the finale circled. 😅😰😮‍💨

From a mix, but always doctored, #GlutenFree monster cookies! Added vanilla bean paste, chunky (vs. smooth) peanut butter, and cinnamon. Delicious!

I made this one with Trader Joe’s prepared gf pizza dough and it was outstanding! I also used their sweet & spicy jalapeños to balance the fattiness of the cheese. I used turkey pepperoni and a base of provolone cheese slices, with sauce on top of that, then topped with mozz & the rest!

Little friend made it through surgery (ended up being moved to the 12th and I have been exhausted ever since) but hasn’t been an amazing patient in recovery… he wants so badly to be on couches & NOT in a kennel! He goes back this morning due to some swelling and possible pulled internal stitches. 😭

This lil homie has to have bladder surgery on Dec 13. Now accepting well-wishes! #pomeranian #DogsOfBlueSky #surgery #BigSads #ILoveMyDog

A text conversation screenshot with a picture of a cute, black & tan Pomeranian being kissed by his owner. The dog looks concerned/not enjoying his kiss.
The conversation follows:
Owner: “His face says EVERYTHING; ‘get me away from this woman!’”
Recipient: “1000 words”
Owner: “‘Woe is me’”

Just had THE BEST MEAL at CHÒPNBLỌK Montrose! Black Star (bowl) and Cape Town Cooler (drink).

Dish from CHÒPNBLỌK called “Black Star” which contains: Waakye Fried Rice, Ikoyi Shrimp, Yassa Curry, and Sweet Plantains. So delicious!

Drink from CHÒPNBLỌK called “Cape Town Cooler” made with Guava, Lemon, Grapefruit, and Sparkling Water. I could cry it was so good!

My school’s #CommunitiesInSchools representative had the best idea for a staff competition called “Disguise a Turkey” - our 6th grade teachers extended this opportunity to our 6th graders and look at the creativity! #MiddleSchool #Thanksgiving #DisguiseATurkey

A conglomerate of “disguised” turkeys as part of a thanksgiving challenge at a middle school. Students were given xeroxed copies of a turkey outline on a paper that they then disguised to make it not look like a turkey. Student examples include SpiderMan turkeys, turkeys converted into different foods or drinks, and a variety of popular culture characters.

My dog loves going to my friend’s snowcone truck, Texas Chill! He always gets a plain ice snowcone for himself and today he got to play with bubbles! 🫧🐕
