Looks like I’m the only person who Cosplayed to the Elizabeth Holmes doc in Auckland 🤣 #YouCanSeeEverything

Only 19,210 hours until the end of Donald Trump's presidency!

It’s been nearly two years since I posted this and… WE DID IT!!! 🦋

“There is no reason why good cannot triumph as often as evil. The triumph of anything is a matter of organization. If there are such things as angels, I hope that they are organized along the lines of the mafia.” — Kurt Vonnegut Everyone go relax and recharge. When we come back, we organize.

Tomorrow is New Zealand’s turn to kick the right wingers to the curb. My old home country USA made me so proud this week, I’m hoping my new home of New Zealand will do the same! I can’t vote for another six months so I am counting on all the sane kiwis to make it happen! 💚

💙 My favorite fucking day 💙

Unfuck the world! 🌎 😳 U.S. citizens abroad need to vote! Go to votefromabroad.org.

Attention to all my fellow Americans living overseas — please help UNFUCK THE WORLD by voting from abroad! @votefromabroad.bsky.social @demsabroad.bsky.social

This world breaks my fucking heart. There is so much pain and sadness. Cruelty for the sake of being cruel. An insane lack of empathy for other innocent creatures. The horrific things we do to animals and to each other. Why is our species so cruel? What is wrong with us? I hate it here.

I think New Zealand has the most beautiful money — both aesthetically & because each note honors a native bird: Hoiho/Yellow-eyed Penguin ($5) Whio/Blue Duck ($10) Kārearea/NZ Falcon ($20) Kōkako ($50) & Mohua/Yellowhead ($100). Are there any other beautiful currencies you think can compete with NZ?

For those of you old enough to remember Ferdinand the Bull, one of my favorite childhood stories ♥️

POV: After the 2024 U.S. election, you decided to sell your house, your car, most of your belongings and move 8000 miles away. You are very happy.

Jump! You could fall. But you might fly, too. 💫

I’m head over heels in love with my beautiful new country. I left everything I’ve ever known to move to the other side of the world & every day I wake up grateful that I was brave enough to take that leap. I miss good people I left behind, but I do not miss the chaos of America at all, not one bit.

39 days since our arrival and New Zealand just keeps blowin’ my socks off

The Blue Spring in Aotearoa New Zealand is the most crystal clear blue freshwater I have seen in my entire life. It is comforting to see some of these rare wild places humanity has preserved 🩵

Paradise on Earth, also known as The Blue Spring in Aotearoa New Zealand. The most crystal clear water I have seen in my entire life. Unreal.

Feeling so grateful to be a new resident of beautiful Aotearoa New Zealand. I feel like I’m in a dreamland, like I’m living inside a screensaver. Surreal beauty that looks fake in photos because it’s *too perfect.* Falling head over heels in love with the country 24 years after falling for the man 💚

The Aotearoa New Zealand night sky is ✨ quite spectacular ✨ Goodnight, friends. 💫

I made my first forest friend in Aotearoa, New Zealand! We were walking deep in the forest (they say “bush” here) when this adorable, very tiny, very round and friendly Pīwakawaka (New Zealand Fantail) flew right up to us and landed on a fern about 2 feet from my face.

This beautiful place is known by a few different names. Aotearoa. New Zealand. The Land of the Long White Cloud. Middle Earth. But my favorite is: My new home. 🇳🇿

We did it! We sold our house, our cars, most of our belongings & boarded a one way flight for New Zealand! Longer threads are harder to post here (maybe that’s on me) so I’m sharing by way of screenshots instead. Got attacked by tons of MAGA trolls & bots for this on Threads but I hate them anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️

Rose-breasted Grosbeak, a rare visitor to our backyard. We usually only see them briefly for a day or two during the spring and fall migration. This was my only action shot today and sadly I didn’t zoom out in time. The bird arrived here on the *exact same day* it did last year: April 27.

There is nothing more disappointing than someone you once loved and considered family deciding to change their vote from Bernie (in 2016 and 2020) to a vote for Trump (in 2024) and still (literally today) standing behind that decision. So, anyway, I said goodbye forever to an old friend today.

Hi everyone, I slid on my back across sharp sticks and leaves while barefoot to get this photo of a gorgeous Red-shouldered Hawk that landed in our backyard today, so please look at my picture 😁

Have you ever seen the movie Contact? The movie was based on the novel by Carl Sagan and the character of Dr. Ellie Arroway (played by Jodie Foster) was based on Carl’s friend, the astronomer Jill Tartar. Jill is famous for her work searching for life beyond Earth with SETI.

Leilani Munter, y'all.

Beautiful tribute to Bobby at the Grammys tonight. Husband to Natascha. Father to Monet and Chloe. Guitarist, singer, and songwriter to the soundtrack to the lives of millions of people all over the world. The first Dead show my big sister Natascha brought me to was in 1986,
