11:58 and all the alarms in my house go off to remind us all of the climate crisis we are in. 2 minutes to midnight. It's time for the world to wake up. #ClimateStrike#FridaysForFuture
Maryland's Special Session has begun! This week we'll overturn numerous vetoes & vote on congressional redistricting maps. I haven't sat on the House floor in almost two years. Good to be back.
every time i remember that last night the official projectionists for cop building just plastered "GO AWAY GO AWAY GO AWAY" onto the venue as activists projected net 0 is not 0 messaging onto it i descend into hysterics once more. just iconic content.

The non-binary urge to lie on ground and let moss grow over your sleeping body and never head the words โCOP26โ or โdriving ambitionโ ever again.
I feel betrayed by the UK, US and EU. They didn't step up as leaders.They didn't secure money for countries like Uganda that are already struggling with the impacts of climate change.They didn't secure enough concrete plans to keep the world below 1.5. 2.4 is a death sentence us.
"Iโve spent my time as a state legislator 'thinking globally and acting locally.' Now, Iโm urging my colleagues in the #Maryland General Assembly to do the same and act aggressively on #climate in 2022."
Thank you Del. @RobbynLewis46th!! #MDGA22

Every time I encounter a frothing-at-the-mouth screeching insane right wing old white man on the doors, the Ancestors send comfort and strength, like this miracle that met me when I got home today. His eye is on the Sparrow, and I know He watches me. ๐ฆโค๏ธ๐๐พ
Now that the legislative session has ended, I can go back to tweeting full time about how cool Baltimore is. Can't wait to see this documentary ๐ #mybmore
We are still working. This is the point in Sine Die when elation (we did AMAZING work for the people!) and despair (why hast thou forsaken my bill, Lord) wrestle for control of one's spirit.

Speaker Jones just gavelled us in. The House is now in session! This is the last day to pass bills. We've done so much. But anxious for a couple of my bills - time is running out. We work - debating & voting - til midnight. #MDGA21#SineDie
Last day of session. First tiktok. (Next one will feature dance and yodeling.) I got nervous and forgot to highlight bills on: housing, immigrant protections, better bus service, trauma informed care, climate action & much more.

We're rallying in Downtown Silver Spring at our good jobs action! Here are some pictures of our rally!
We are demanding that @senatorcardin sign the Good Jobs for All Pledge to guarantee good jobs to millions of Americans.
To plant golden asparagus dig a trench about 6 inches deep and leave golden to settle in. Cover with dirt and wait several weeks for tails to show ๐๐ #gardening
Sigh. Too often, opponents of #climateaction cry "it's too expensive!" Alas, they know the cost of everything and the value of nothing. Thanks to Del. Sheila Ruth for defending #HB414 Climate Solutions Act. #Working4MD
