A wise woman with her familiar, Tribble, who never sits on laps!

Apparently. I was having trouble breathing and hacking my head off, only to be told, "It's a cold."

The Kumeyaay discovered that seeds of the datura (locoweed), which is poisonous to animals and humans, could be ground up and used as a headache remedy. This is an example of indigenous brilliance. The Kumeyaay lived so sustainably that they left little trace here in Southern California.

Our kitten is named Tribble, but she's no trouble. She loves belly rubs!

The poorly worded compliment by the "Department of War" to Loomer says it all. See the fine print.

Next comes breaking them. Then vision changes. Eventually cataracts. And then no glasses.

Our stories arenโ€™t only about survival, theyโ€™re about brilliance, innovation, and strength thatโ€™s lasted for millennia.

Teach the pain, yes, but teach the power too.

We are more than what was done to us. We are still here.

My point exactly. Once the focus shifted from keeping employees to keeping shareholders happy, we were replaceable. And wages stagnated. Don't like it, there's the door.

Our black cat Tribble loves belly rubs. I find this very suspicious in a cat. I keep waiting for her to shred my arm.

The attack on Israel hardly warranted the killing of 67,000 Palestinians. This is not a war, it's genocide.

Politicians gave themselves a raise on their daily food allowance, while Americans prepare to lose SNAP benefits Saturday.
