Surprise, surprise...Fetterman js blaming the Dems for the shutdown. Dude needs to officially switch parties. #yuck #DINO

Morning walk among the hoary frost tipped grass.

I have "Breaking News" fatigue. #fdt

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

I need to engage more here. I'm sorry, my attention span has been altered by Tiktok posts. Argh!

Sometimes hard when there are so many things to hate about this administration.

But the most internal conflict with his fanboys and fangirls has to be him covering for a child rapist.

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Trying to maintain sanity by meditating and listening to classical music.

I hope the US military leaders prove to have integrity.

What do you do when you work with loud magats? Airpods in full blast to add to the cacophony. Picture for zen. #help #stoptheinsanity

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

I need to get a tissue, which is out of reach, but I can't disrupt Sir Mootsie.

Still managed to capture some beauty amidst the chaos and downfall of our country.

Thoughts of the upcoming meeting of US generals? My anxiety is through the roof, especially with a big, strong 20-year-old son. #generals

Thank you for providing additional sources to follow. I already subscribe to several in this list on Substack or other sm platforms.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

I agree with this take. I'm somewhat stuck in how to proceed.

Some phrases are so well-known, you don't need to say the whole thing to be understood.

E.g., you can say "birds of a feather" without saying "flock together."

-“When life hands you lemons…”
-“Great minds…”
-“When in Rome…”

Such partial phrases are called 'anapodotons.'

I seem to be the comfort human in my home. All three lined and joined me for coffee. #dogsofbluesky #catsofbluesky

Listening to "Silent Running," by Mike and the Mechanics. Damn, hits a bit differently right now.

I've taken up coloring, reading more, and walking. I'm with you. It's hard.

I have 3 sons. I am proud of and love them all dearly. They each have amazing, loving hearts. I am struggling to support them through the cruelty that seems to abound. My youngest ended a friendship because the boy mocks other children on the spectrum. I'm sad that bullies are so emboldened. #bekind

This morning

Cats for sanity. I present Mootsie and Milo

Is there a reason that seems to be the default treatment for so many illnesses for lay people?

Russians dropped a glide bomb on elderly people who were waiting in line for their pensions. More than 20 dead.

Please. Don’t look away and don’t be silent. This is all I could ask for

De Georgiou: And to be clear, the only motive for opposing this bill would be to conceal wrongdoing. You have a choice: stand with the truth or with the lies that have protected predators for decades.
