It has come to my attention that not everyone is as inundated with the news as I am. The FBI has issued warnings for VIOLENT protests in all 50 states. A man was arrested in Florida with weapons, and one in DC had 500 rounds of ammo. Michigan and Minnesota have known threats TODAY. (January... Continue Reading →
National Gaslighting:After The Attack on the Capitol
I think the hardest part of the attack on the Capitol for me has been the constant deluge of posts dismissing anyone who is upset about it. From a parody on the parable to “Let he who is without sin cast the first stone,” to comments about self-righteousness, to posts about how if you are... Continue Reading →
To Those who are Concerned about the Parler Shut Down
WARNING: Proceed with caution.

On January 7th: Crying in the Wilderness
It’s a gloomy, quiet morning here as the chaos and uncertainty of yesterday’s events, stilled only by police and a curfew, have turned into the final stroke of legal pronouncement of Joe Biden as president.

He Didn’t Have to Die
Ok *deep breath* This post is gonna make you mad. If you believe me, you will be mad about what I’m about to say. If you don’t, you will be mad that I said it, but I’m sorry, now that I know it, I can’t not say it. Disclaimer: I do not hate policemen, but... Continue Reading →
Year in Review 2020: Peace be with You

Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, Patroness of the Vulnerable and the Lowly, and the USA, Thank You!
Happy feast day of the Immaculate Conception! Today is the feast of Mary as the patroness of the USA, and the feast of her sinlessness. It's a beautiful feast for a million reasons, but it is specifically special for me because of what I have learned about her this year, and how I have seen... Continue Reading →
Dear Trump Supporters, Part II
Dear Trump Supporters, I am so, so angry at you. Like so angry I would like to stand on a pedestal and scream unkind things at you. Why? Because I am scared out of my mind of what is happening in our country right now. The President fired the secretary of defense right after he... Continue Reading →
