Oh, so it will be one of those weeks

Posted on August 25, 2020 by A Dreamer

Where I am not terribly sure what day it is. Had to double check my phone when I got up. It’s Tuesday, just so you know. Yet again, this administration is really testing my commitment to abolitionist principles. What the … Continue reading →

I’m turning into my Dad.

Posted on August 23, 2020 by A Dreamer

Not a bad thing, he was pretty nifty. But again, up early, got coffee and donuts, and I’m having my coffee on the porch and enjoying the morning before it gets blazing hot. Remember how I said yesterday that summer … Continue reading →

Forgive me if I’m not super excited

Posted on August 20, 2020 by A Dreamer

Don’t get me wrong, Kamala Harris’ nomination *is* historic and it *is* exciting. But I remember what happened last time. Americans loooooove their racism and sexism, even to their own detriment. Congress has shown it can’t do shit and now … Continue reading →

Welp, it’s officially Joe.

Posted on August 19, 2020 by A Dreamer

Remember when we pondered the possibility of a brokered convention? I’ll admit, I’ve not watched a bit of the convention – I’m not the target audience, my vote is solid already, and I am not going to learn anything new. … Continue reading →

Everything is totally normal.

Posted on August 17, 2020 by A Dreamer

I mean, it’s very healthy and such to be having dreams about getting in fights with government agents who are stealing mailboxes, right? Gotta say, my administration/pandemic/GOP related anger/depression/anxiety has reached new highs, which I didn’t think possible, but it … Continue reading →

Well, I guess it’s not *bad* news

Posted on August 16, 2020 by A Dreamer

The house has moved up the hearing with DeJoy to August 24th rather than mid-September. So, my voicemail to Gerry Connolly was a little less angry than it would have been, though I did say that the 24th still isn’t … Continue reading →

Today I learned

Posted on August 13, 2020 by A Dreamer

Another day

Posted on August 10, 2020 by A Dreamer

Another call to Congress. This USPS fuckery… Now I’m starting to think I’d be better off doing absentee-in-person, cause I’m not really sure I’ll *get* my ballot in the first place with the talk circulating of telling the USPS to … Continue reading →

A decent nights sleep

Posted on June 13, 2020 by A Dreamer

And I’m slightly less “fuck the universe” this morning. Being Saturday doesn’t hurt, either. My only nod to Phase II is getting grab and go at Starbucks. This morning there was a tiny antique car gathering in the parking lot … Continue reading →

Again…

Posted on August 4, 2019 by A Dreamer

Yesterday, I was still trying to process what happened in Gilroy. Who shoots up a garlic festival? (We know, the answer is repeatedly the same – violent white supremacists.) All of these shootings have bothered me – this one, the … Continue reading →
