The First Thanksgiving

Posted on November 24, 2016 by Kelli Jae BaeliSeptember 25, 2017

    As we celebrate Thanksgiving, let’s remember that the holiday is based on a lie, and to celebrate it differently. Be thankful for our gifts and blessings, but never forget the true history. Let’s keep the atrocities happening now at Standing Rock in mind. Let’s also remember that unless we are full-blooded Native American, we ARE ALL IMMIGRANTS. The First Thanksgiving It Didn’t Happen That Way Let me begin by stating that thousands of years before the ‘official’ Thanksgiving Day was proclaimed by Governor Winthrop of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1637, North American Indigenous people across the continent … Continue reading →

Charcoal Thursday Sale

Posted on December 1, 2013 by Kelli Jae BaeliDecember 1, 2013

I had stretched my budget to the limit at the end of this month, and wasn’t sure when my check would go in, but assumed I’d be spending Thanksgiving eating an avocado pocket sandwich, rather than something with turkey in it, to at least commemorate the holiday. But then, my check went in early, and I thought. “Hey, I should go buy some kind of turkey dinner now.” Well. It was a holiday, and I knew many things would be closed. I just hoped at least one of the grocery stores would be open. So I got in my van … Continue reading →

Happy Thanksgivoween

Posted on November 29, 2013 by Kelli Jae BaeliNovember 29, 2013

NOTE: I typed in Thanksgivoween, as the title of this blog, while thumbing it into my iPhone…and the autocorrect made it Thank Gully Nig (sounds like a good title- who’s Gully Nig?–I’m sure I’ll come up with a story for that). So–Today I am thankful that I finally found the love of my life even though we can’t be together right now. I am thankful that I have a nice vehicle to provide autonomy and comfort, and a reasonably comfortable place to live, even though it’s just a lonely hotel and nothing more. I am thankful that I am able to … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"If those you wish to share a life with, only insert you into their lives between other people and other things, I suggest you realize that you are not a comma."

Politics Quotes

"People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple." (Joss Whedon)

@BernieSanders 1) You're NOT a Democrat & don't speak for them
2) Voters rejected you in the two primaries.
3) You've been in D.C. for 30 years & yet get anything "bold" implemented.
4) The bold actions that Democrats do take, you either say they're "not good enough" or try to take credit.

Only in America can immigrant senators like Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz be against immigration. Spread their shame.

There are many domestic terrorists who stormed the Capitol that are receiving minor charges, light bail or no bail, & some DOJ are considering not charging at all.

This sets a horrible precedent for ANOTHER attack because without SEVERE consequences bad people will do this again
