She/her pronouns I am a blue-eyed, creature loving, creative, NYer; the rest is subject to change. I read, share pets, and haven't decided what else here.

A large pack of dogs of all types, at least 6 wearing huge grins, all off leash in a fenced park.

Sometimes you just need a crew of really happy dogs. This was from work on Wednesday.

I just drove through to get back from a show in Jersey and traffic is nuts due to roadwork and cops everywhere. I'm not heading back in till the weekend. The good news is the cops seemed busy with specific tasks (blocking lanes, etc) and profiling the drivers following the road rules.

The legs of a black and white dog and golden dog are laying comfortably together on a grey couch.

She ate her dinner! It was her 1st meal in her new home and she ate! She also snuggled with one of her new human children and her (old friend, new sibling) dog sister!
I love knowing that I helped a family find more love and a dog find love and safety. I needed that.

I needed the hope I got from my work this weekend. One of my pup friends needed to be rehomed, and yesterday I got her moved into her new home.
The pup in question is unbelievably sweet, but has been through a lot and therefore nervous and does not trust easily. She won't eat if worried.

Life is hard, but at least we still have the Muppets! Just splurged to get the cheapest seats possible to see @roblakemagic.bsky.social with The Muppets on Broadway! ❀️
I grew up loving the Muppets.They have always offered me humor and safety no matter my age. Now I get to see them live & with magic!

8.5 dogs visible in a fenced in area covered in woodchips.  Dogs are a variety of sizes and breeds, all have smiles and happy tails.

My instagram is just pets and only pets, with the occasional inclusion of a wild animal or farm animals. My uncle says it's a page full of extremely happy dogs, so pure relaxation for many.

BREAKING: BlueSky is blocking access to Mississippi.

This is the No. 1 platform for @mississippifreepress.org.

We ditched X for BlueSky early this year.

And now, at 3 pm on a Friday, poof.

I don't know what we'll do next.

Keep up with us using our newsletter at mfp.ms/subscribe.

Add in that many meds and devices are going to be hard to get due to tariffs (causing countries not to ship to the US or delays in shipment etc). The battle to survive for so many is just going to get harder.
We are NOT safe. The real question is what are YOU willing to do to make this stop?!

Most countries that take expats will not accept those with disabilities or heavy medical costs (please tell me if you know those that do, without past citizen relatives).
Come January it's going to be extremely costly to be disabled. Sickness will be more prevalent due to vaccine cancelation.

At the moment you are safe if you are white and blond, extra if you have blue eyes.

WE HAVE SEEN THESE CHANGES BEFORE!

Unfortunately politeness will not stop this. Things are going to continue to get worse.

Leaving the country is an option for some, but not all.

Laws are being changed to make it unsafe or cause detrimental harm to those who are disabled, poor, love differently than just a cis man and cis woman relationship, and more.
The majority of the US population come from immigrants (including the idiots making the new laws).

No one is safe when insanity rules.
Books are and continue to be banned.
News is being altered and edited.
Schools are now teaching altered history as fact.
People are being captured, kidnapped, deported, and killed for looking a certain way.
People are being fired for their personal beliefs.

I remember my Grandmother once telling me that it was okay to be Jewish and wear my star necklace proudly, but it was also okay to wear it under my neckline and keep it private.
I didn't understand that people would actually want to hurt me just because I showed my religious pride.

A thread🧡
I never wanted humanity to see this again.
Where people are silenced, arrested, deported, or captured to die just because they exist.
As a child I didn't get why my grandparents could be proud to be Jewish, but also nervous when I mentioned talking to all my school friends about it.

two men in suits and ties are standing next to each other looking at the camera . Alt: Dean and Sam Winchester in suits and ties are standing next to each other looking at the camera slightly distressed/grossed out. From the show Supernatural.

I should be okay too. πŸ˜†

First it was troops in L.A., sent to provoke and assault peaceful protesters under the banner of β€œimmigration enforcement.” Now it’s troops in our capital to disappear the homeless. See the pattern? Sooner or later, the monster comes for us all.

Significant portions of Article I of the U.S. Constitution were removed from the version published on Congress’ official Constitution website. Large parts of Section 8(which outlines the powers of Congress) were deleted, and Sections 9 and 10,

Heads up especially women. be very very careful you don't enable that map feature on Instagram. It shows your location down to the street level.
To turn off your location service in IG: Settings and activity > story, live, and location > location sharing Instagram map > don’t share location

⚠️ TL;DR: There’s a Legionnaires’ outbreak in Central Harlem, NYC β€” 67 cases, 3 deaths. If you’re in affected ZIP codes and have flu-like symptoms, get medical help fast.

Ah, gotcha. It only shows on certain tests. It took an allergist digging deep to find all my respitory related vaccines needed to be redone. At the time I was having blood tests almost weekly and none of them had showed that because it wasn't what they had been specifically testing for.

In certain people (like me) vaccines like hepatitis b or others need to be redone and tested for functioning after a certain amount of time. Your doctor should be able to provide the info.
Exhaustion can be a sign of many things; depression, covid, iron deficiency, and so many others.

My father magically could do most of Frank Oz's character voices. He would read us 'There's A Monster At The End of This Book' in Grover's voice, while I hugged my toy Super Grover.

What do you want from that person? I love my cgm/pump because it makes my life easier to survive. I'm so exhausted of having to fight to survive though.
