I’d encourage you to watch the four-minute video on YouTube. Johnny Bananas does some good work and deserves the click on this one.

@aidanetcetera It was a shitpost. Check out Know Your Meme for more of the history on it, or john ganz, or my newsletter #kirk #owo ♬ original sound – Aidan Walker
I’m not going to wade into the political realm anymore, but, over the past few days, it’s become pretty clear a lot of people don’t understand the memes used by the alleged killer of Charlie Kirk. I post these two videos only for understanding of what they mean in case you are struggling to wrap your head around them. Aidan Walker does a good job of clearing things up in his two videos in a clear and concise manner.
Oh, hey, look at that alliteration I accidentally did with my title. Anyway…
I had lunch yesterday and the day before with two really good friends whose opinions I value and respect. For the last year, I’ve been toying with the idea of two different blog posts, but have been hesitant to write them. Ultimately, this is my blog and I can write what I want, but I also want to be respectful of other people and not come off as an angry bitch.
Little yellow bastard outside my front door.
There are days I have thoughts in my head I want to write about, but can’t flesh them out into anything more meaningful than a sentence or two. Sometimes it’s because of the PTSD. Sometimes I can’t find the right words to express myself. Sometimes someone else said it better. Sometimes there isn’t anything more to say.
The wind picked up at the end of the No Kings protest, but it was still a good day and a good protest.
I’ve been to protests before, but it was always as a reporter. Today was the first time I attended a protest for myself.
The military has put the U.S. Marines into a “prepared to deploy status” in case they are needed to “augment support” in Los Angeles. If they are activated and they go, you will be witnessing the beginnings of a police state in America. We are a hair’s breadth away from it. This is not okay.
This is exactly how Hitler took control of Germany.
In 53 days.

Mrs. Blustein, my fifth grade teacher, brought a lady in to speak with us about politics. It was an election year and she was running for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. She didn’t have to come and speak to a bunch of 11 year olds, but I was glad that she did because I found it fascinating. We were learning about how politics work and here was a lady willing to explain all to us and answer our most idiotic questions. It was 1982 and that visit set me on a path of becoming aware of what was going on in the world and how I might actually be able to help effect change.
