"Just Tell Them...

I have worked 40 years to make the Women's Suffrage platform broad enough for Atheists and Agnostics to stand upon, and now if need be I will fight the next 40 to keep it Catholic enough to permit the straightest Orthodox religionist to speak or pray and count her beads upon."

May 31st, Still In Mourning

 No, we won't forget. 

For Democrats, democracy died this day in 2008. 

The day our votes were torn up, and thrown away.

 “Remember PUMAs, it’s complacency that is our enemy; critical thinking and healthy skepticism are our long suits. But, our ace-in-the-hole, the strongest trait we have, and must never lose, is our thoroghly justified, well earned, complete, total, fucking rage.” (Cinie, via PUMA PAC)

PUMA Day lives on.  

And, yet another ex-Dem remembers.

Got the Book, Got the Message, Got the Fever!



Thanks Uppity!

Ordering a few more copies.

Woohoo! Rev. Amy reports that "Dirty Words on Clean Skin" has surpassed the sexist, media hyped "Game Change" on Amazon's watch list. Let the real herstory of 2008 be told!!

Just Because I am a Pet Rescuer, I Am Not a Bottomless Pit of Empathy


I left Nursing to get away from the bottomless pit of needs that was once my job.

I left the Church to get away from a bottomless pit of impossible demands.

I left the Democratic Party to get away from a bottomless pit of misogyny.

Now, I'll be damned if the uber needy humans have not followed me into my chosen "hobby" Pet Rescue.

What is it with me? Am I wearing a "kick me" sign on my forehead?? Listen.... I don't want to be told about all your problems, people! Lay on a couch and pay somebody to hear all that. Either you want to work in rescue or you don't.

Geesh.... us Enneagram 2's need a break once in a while, too.
