Sharon 🤦🏾‍♀️ Persists

I just found out that US-Canadian Olympic bobsledder, Kallie Humphries, is a Trumpster. It's always weird when, as a Black woman from the US, I meet a younger white woman whom I find generally nice & then over the course of our conversation (or later on) I learn that she's a Trump supporter. It's like cognitive dissonance. How can they talk to me "nicely" & also support a person who wants to erase my people's history, who fires Black men & women from the US govt & military & who is a racist?

Is Kash Patel STILL head of the FBI? What is it going to take to get him fired like Noem??? #incompetence #kashpatel #fbi

“Outlander” is a category on Jeopardy tonight. Finally, a category I think I could totally dominate! 🤔

@oscarjiminy@aus.social I truly hope it doesn't come to that.

If Putin even dare consider taking out Zelenskyy the way TFG took out the leader of Iran... At a minimum, TFG's rash actions have untied Putin's hands and made life for Zelenskyy that much more dangerous. Also, where are China & Russia, 2 countries who have been friendly towards Iran? They both seem very quiet these days. #Ukraine #putin #zelenskyy #Iran #China #russia

I just found out the origin of the term, Hush Puppies. When slaves tried to escape, they would ball up cornbread and throw the balls to the hounds, calling out to them, "Hush puppies". Fascinating linguistic history. #slavery #englishlanguage #linguistics #hushpuppies

Paul Ingrassia on the Natl Capital Planning Commission is a complete TOADY!!! He compares the proposed ballroom design to those of palaces in Europe and that it reflects where the US is today in terms of "strength". What a piece of s$#t. #ballroom #ncpc #toadying #toady

#charliekirk ???? #banners ????? #wtf ???? Seen on a federal government building in Washington, DC. What are we devolving into becoming????

Well, Black History Month is done. Now that didn't hurt too much, did it, Hegseth? Actually, Black History is US History and should be championed throughout the whole year.... #blackhistory #ushistory #hegseth

Just because TFG started a war with Iran after he and his family got billions of $US dollars of investments, crypto, cash and a luxury Qatari jet from other Arab nations doesn’t mean we all forget about the withholding of key Epstein files and lack of accountability for child sexual abusers and traffickers. To forget would be an unconscionable disservice to Epstein’s victims. We should be able to hold two horrible thoughts in our minds simultaneously. #iran #epstein #dontforget

How I'm dealing with the horrible news of today when I'm not here on this platform:

* baking bread
* doing stretches
* continuing with writing a non-fiction manuscript (set during the early 1940's)
* texting w/my friend who's undergoing chemo
* giving subcutaneous fluids to my 16-year-old kitty
* watching the snow melt outside
* lifting free weights
* drinking tea

Will our daily lives continue to be stable even as our country illegally drops bombs on other countries? #dailylife #war

Not so surprising....

RE: @SharonCrockett@toot.community

Just thought I’d re-boost this from 3 years ago. Always a good reminder of what our forefathers & foremothers sacrificed for us. It’s time for us again to make some of our own sacrifices to save our democracy.
