trying to follow the local anti-racist pro-literacy vs old guard anti-making-racists-uncomfortable wars here in #PutnamCountyNY . Latest skirmishes so far going to the latter as somehow mere reading events (not drag queen story hours) have 2x been cancelled . #Readout #literacy #intimidation #disappointedNotSurprised

What IS it with my country? The same people who turn violent at the thought of drag queen story hour (a harmless activity), shrug off ACTUALLY problematic behaviors, like, say, instigating violence against businesses and homes. Why not work towards something truly beneficial? No, they'd rather instigate very real violence. #Transphobia #PutnamCountyNY #EndBigotry #domesticterrorism #TerroristTatiana #DSH #dragstorytime #DragIsNotACrime

This seems like so much unhelpful political posturing, and the closure ditto. #PutnamCountyNY #IndianPoint Good coverage by Brian PJ Cronin. #infrastructure

So not only does the local hospital now consider masks optional, with multiple signs to that effect around the entrance, but when I enter masked, people tell me it's optional, like I should take it off? Staff so far not masked either. In a #hospital. #PutnamCountyNY #Nuvance #NuvanceHealth #masks #CovidIsntOver

So there's usually barely any #verizonWireless cell service here, and too often when the #xfinity #comcast internet goes down, there's often just the "x" of no service. Ah, American infrastructure. #PutnamCountyNY
There was a wildfire up the hill behind us last week too. I miss reliable ma bell copper phone lines. They didn't even need electricity.

So looks like the executives of #PutnamCountyNY and #DutchessCountyNY are engaged in Stupidity Chicken. The former wants to create a "Constitutional County"* & the latter wants citizens to pray away the Climate Leadership & Community Protection Act. ...
Thank you Highlands Current for the heads-up.

Not all #BibleStudy is toxic and/or shallow. Have sort of given up on finding local #BibleJournaling peeps, except can't really let go of the dream.
