It is disgusting that Republicans CHOSE to let SNAP benefits run out today—letting millions of kids and families go hungry for political leverage.  The courts have made it clear that USDA must fund SNAP for November.

"We demand a redress of our grievences"

Nice to see this language here.

Tonight's story problem was solved by making lentil soup and resisting the urge to put on music while I chopped and stirred. Now I get dinner and a new draft out of my Saturday night.

i’m just saying someone with your skill can turn this into grade A content

(None of this is funny, but the Kevin Bacon game shows what three hops look like, and it's not good for any of us.)

Poor Kevin Bacon.

The deeply unprofessional masked goons are now going to subcontract their bounties to completely unprofessional armed goons. Awesome.

OMG I wish I crocheted

This is true.

You would be kicked out of any writer’s room in existence if you had the villains celebrating a Great Gatsby-themed party while taking away food benefits from millions of poor people.

That's the appropriate number of candle holders. Eight plus one. Well worth the dollar.

I might show this to my students.

Two leashed dogs, a terrier and a scruffy mutt, sniff a lawn ornament shaped like a sitting black cat.

A scruffy leashed mutt looks twice at a black metal cat on an ivy covered yard.

Both dogs had to examine all six of these cat silhouettes because cats are tricky.

I did today's then immediately told my sister about it. She's going to love it.

Ooh that's great! I haven't seen that one before.

A brindle pit bull style dog sits on a mat inside a front door, wearing a Halloween costume consisting of a black and white horizontally striped shirt with foam “arms” at the sides, one holding a painter’s palette, one holding a paint brush, she also has a beret on

When no one at the école noticed your work

That's my pup Zimmy! He is available for personal experiences except he'll throw up in the car on the way. Otherwise a perfect Krypto.

That's very cool!

15 million Americans are going to lose their health care.

They can take both, btw. It isn't an either/or. The parents are always surprised when the kids ask if they can take extra toys and not extra candy. I think the kid calculus might be that they have to pay a parent tax on candy but not on toys.

Judges order the Trump administration to use contingency funds for SNAP payments during the shutdown Two federal judges ruled nearly simultaneously on Friday that President Trump's administration must continue to fund SNAP, using contingency funds during the government shutdown.

I have once again handed out both candy and toys (Halloween pencils and skull erasers and bat rings etc ) and once again noticed that the non-candy is more exciting to some kids than the candy. "Are those glow in the dark dinosaurs?" Yes, yes they are.

A scruffy white mutt in a red super cape looks around to see where he's needed.

Somebody get him to a casting call! I can't believe they let a CGI dog have the role when he was right here. You just have to look past the fact that he doesn't really do cars, and he doesn't really believe in taking direction, or baths...

A ridiculously scruffy white and tan mutt models his Krypto costume(a red cape and a yellow S badge) in the autumn sun, keeping his eyes peeled for trouble.

A white and tan mutt stands on a leafy verge with the wind in his face, blowing both his ears and his super cape.

I can't help it. He's so cute.

US judges say Trump administration must keep paying Snap food benefits during US shutdown In two separate rulings, US judges said the plan to cut off Snap food benefits for millions of Americans is likely unlawful.

Virginia's Senate has now passed the constitutional amendment that'd allow Dems to redistrict VA, joining House.

So Dems completed step 1: passing measure this week.

Step 2: keep the House Tuesday.
Step 3: pass this again in January.
Step 4: win a referendum in the spring.

They finally built a machine that can simulate peaking on edibles
