Clergy & Catholic sisters were out in full force this morning to witness Haitian TPS holders arriving at a Cincinnati-area ICE facility where they will be outfitted with ankle bracelets. Communion was offered at the entrance as people prayed for their humanity to be recognized by the Trump admin.

TFW all your library holds come in at once

When DC is a smoke-heat-pocalypse ya gotta get to the mountains. Still smoky but better and 20 degrees cooler!

My old gal (R) hates the other two and honestly never thought we’d get here as a household.

Marked 250 by taking in what I love most about my country: its protected public lands. Slept in a WPA-era fire tower above the clouds. Love you forever, West Virginia

Luckily the VP and I live (when he’s not in DC) in the city with the second-largest library system in the country so I was able to get his latest, tout suite.

Parents picked nieces up at summer camp. The elder drew a photo of their house as a gift. The younger brought them two pieces of blank paper so they could draw their own. 😂

Cannot describe the brief but intense joy it brought me to be behind this golden retriever in the Skyline drive thru. Was grinning ear to ear by the time I got up to the window.

I brake 4 turtles (even snappers)

Selma & Montgomery, AL

Well that was a JOURNEY!

Every room in my home has ramps and steps to make window perches accessible because few things bring me greater joy and satisfaction than supporting my 16yo elderly baby girl in her golden years. ❤️❤️❤️

Sunday Funday

Honestly starting to feel bad for the little guy. But not bad enough to unsecure my birdseed after he ate most of a bag in days.

Was gonna switch to TV but I can’t reach the remote. Not a bad problem to have.

My baby girl is 16 today. 🎉🎂🥳🎊

Rural WV-OH border. Until recently I regularly filled my car all the way up for under $50. No idea how long the average American family is going to weather this given there’s no end in sight.

The last night of vacation always involves a family photo or two.

Popped into my local branch library on a whim. Came out with some fantastic new releases!

I’ve been looking at multi unit residential properties in Cincinnati and this is a wild photo to include in your MLS listing as the owner, ie not the long-term tenant in the unit pictured.

A cat that is too smart for her own good. Just tried to drug her with gabupentin ahead of a drive bc she gets *extremely* distressed. Wouldn’t touch it. I mixed in more food. She locked eyes w me, dipped a paw in, licked a teeny bit, then shook her paw to spray it across the floor and walked off.

Continue loving how People is crushing the whole journalism in the Trump era vibe

I have a homing device implanted for indie bookstores.

Those questioning the purpose of #NoKings only need to go to a small town in flyover country to understand why it’s important for those participating in places where until recently, many felt nervous to publicly declare opposition to Trump admin. Organizing in these places so diff than SF, NYC, LA

Morgantown #NoKings starting to disperse. You may be able to hear in the background (over “Fight the Power”) that the vast majority of vehicles are honking in support. There have been very few hecklers.

Cheryl Paul, born and raised in Morgantown, had parents who both served in WW2. They’re interned at Arlington. “One of the reasons I’m here is for them.” #NoKings

The Freedom Band is playing patriotic classics at Morgantown WV #NoKings

It begins.

TMZ, folks.
