My White House Day with ARMY

Fierce Planet Posted on June 9, 2022 by jnfrJune 24, 2022

ARMY is the collective name for fans of the k-pop group BTS. To be ARMY is to be part of a community, and that community is made of love. To be ARMY is to have a constant source of hope and joy, and also to feel seen and comforted in your darkest moments. ARMY fans can be found in all countries, in all languages, of all ages, of all races, of all genders and identities. I am 68 years old, bisexual and married, in rather poor health, with a long life behind me as a progressive activist. I have lived … Continue reading →

Today in Colorado…

Fierce Planet Posted on March 14, 2021 by jnfrMarch 14, 2021

We’re having a LOT of spring snow. Much needed water, but ouch the shoveling! Still piling up. This is the patio where I like to sit, in other seasons. #cowx pic.twitter.com/11vfrJm1u0 — jnfr (@jnfr) March 14, 2021

For me, 50 weeks today

Fierce Planet Posted on March 2, 2021 by jnfrMarch 11, 2021

That’s how long our house has kept itself in quarantine so far. And today I got my first shot of the Moderna vaccine here in Colorado. Mr. J isn’t eligible yet, so we’ll keep ourselves in quarantine until we both have as full immunity as we can get. Guess who else got her shot today? Dolly Parton. Dolly gets a dose of her own medicine. @VUMChealth pic.twitter.com/38kJrDzLqC — Dolly Parton (@DollyParton) March 2, 2021 She is such a lovely person and I can’t thank her enough for helping to fund the vaccine I received today. Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine…

Meet Kaniela Ing

I agree with him. “What dreams would you pursue if your basic needs were met?” Our message is mainstream; it just makes sense. Hawaiian values are @DemSocialists values. pic.twitter.com/FyUaBodmcx — Kaniela Ing (@KanielaIng) August 8, 2018

Our broken hearts

Fierce Planet Posted on December 15, 2012 by jnfrDecember 15, 2012

Calling My Children Home – Performed by Emmylou Harris (Doyle Lawson/Charles Waller/Robert Yates) Those lives were mine to love and cherish. To guard and guide along life’s way. Oh God forbid that one should perish. That one, alas, should go astray. With thanks to Beth Owl’s Daughter for reminding me of this.

Into the Light

Fierce Planet Posted on January 31, 2007 by jnfrJanuary 31, 2007

Virtual flowers and all best wishes to Molly Ivins as she goes. From the WILPF mailing list: I’m sorry the news I bring is so dire, but many are wondering: Molly Ivins is indeed losing her fight with cancer. She’s out of the hospital and back at home, on life support with organ failure. She is lucid some of the time, and spending her last hours with close friends and relatives. She asks that no more flowers or cards be sent as she is overwhelmed, and certainly visitors are a burden at this point (she knows you are with her … Continue reading →

Best wishes for Molly

Fierce Planet Posted on January 27, 2007 by jnfrJanuary 27, 2007

Please join me in sending best wishes to Molly Ivins, who is gravely ill in her third bout with breast cancer. I posted this quote of hers on Election Day this year, and it’s so expressive of her spirit that I’m going to post it again and again. That was a good day for all of us, and I hope Molly enjoyed it too. “So keep fightin’ for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don’t you forget to have fun doin’ it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can … Continue reading →
