Open Letter to Senator Guy Palumbo, WA State
Dear Senator Palumbo, I live on Vashon Island, previously West Seattle, and before that Redmond. I have raised my children over the past 20 years, with tremendous attention being paid to every parenting decision, from birth to breastfeeding to vaccines to other areas...
When Will We Stop Trusting Them & Start Being Us?
What scares me about corporate oligarchy is the repetitive nature of its successes.What worries me about my fellow people is our repetitive failure to protect ourselves.What I wish everyone wanted to prevent, was the combination of these two things. There is a very...
Jaw Hit the Table and Got Stuck
I think this is going to become a theme…Q: How do you know who to vote for, in 2020? A: The person who the establishment is gunning against! THE BULLSHIT HAS BEGUN, FOLKS, SO PLEASE TAKE NOTE AND LET IT MAKE YOU IMPERVIOUS TO MANIPULATION GOING FORWARD! Quote:...
All you have to do is this little, simple thing…
I don’t have much to say. It’s simple. We can all be a part of the change we want to see in the world, or not. That’s it. You will have a million excuses handed to you. A thousand rationales for why you should stop. Hundreds of logical reasons to...

In Patriarchies, Women Sell Out or Get Power from The Men
Of course, this isn’t always true…but as a rule? It is. Which puts us, as women voters, in a difficult position. Voting for the vagina on the ticket, deeply underperforms as a guarantee, just like voting for the bible-thumper, the “family values...
The Role of Men in Ending Misogyny
I want to share what I hope will be a SUCCESSFUL reply to the first man who (with all the good intentions in the world) jumped up and “mansplained” how my essay, Stop Mansplaining and Start Listening, got it all wrong. Why am I sharing this? Because we don’t succeed...
