makes you wonder where the bad press about Platner is really coming from.

Small fast things like scarves though I’ve done some blankets. Watch some YT vids, you’ll pick it up again! We’ve had to keep yarn away from cats, as some of them want to chew and eat it. Very dangerous. So far luckily they don’t chew on already made things, just strings they want to play with.

Trump Considers Overhaul of Refugee System That Would Favor White People

Democrats should reject John Thune's shutdown offer. He's saying he'll guarantee a vote on the health care subsidies if Dems vote to reopen the government. Bad deal. You can't trust them, and there's no guarantee it'll pass. Demand it be included in the CR. Don't give an inch.

😍Raven is beautiful. 😳 just picking up crochet again after achieving 7 cat status; good reminder to me to not let my skeins become kicksticks; though unruly yarn might get consigned to that fate😎

Government shutdown live updates as Senate vote on GOP funding bill fails for 10th time The Senate failed again to advance a bill to end the shutdown, and GOP leaders plan to bring up individual funding bills later in the day. Follow live updates here.

(CBS) The Senate voted for the tenth time to reopen the govt and the vote failed. But the Senate GOP is beginning to talk about options, a good sign. However, the House is nowhere to be seen...now about four weeks since closing per GOP orders. An Epstein effect?

Design for my 10/18 #NoKings protest poster. Main text reads: "Access, Not Excess" on a blue background.

Finished my 36"x48" poster for #NoKings. Now I'm off to the maker lab at one of my favorite public libraries to print it out.

Colorado and Illinois and Virginia join!

And we can add a little something to the orange juice, should we so choose😂

Some gentle lessons sung in a sweet voice (played her songs for our son when he was little). I’m old enough to remember the Bing Crosby version😂

I choked a bit at “limited government” as a goal, but then again, just shutting down the government seems to be their method of achieving that.

little slip of the tongue? freudian much?

"human dignity, the things that lead to human flourishing. We – we have stood against that."

It’s a little different right from the start but fun to watch the various characters. I’m halfway through episode 2. I’ll stick with it.👍

It’s insanity.

Why was he in Central Texas? Creep.

An outstanding read. Today, always.

Never mind the cost of this, but what if, during this dick-wagging display, some live ordnance prematurely ejaculates?
