Not so subtle offer to help?

No Hannukah?

My 2026 health insurance premiums are out - I have to find an additional $9,000 next year to keep my current plan, which is also raising my out of pocket costs. Don't tell me that the healthcare issue is about giving illegals free healthcare.

perfectly understandable, I have the same evaluative skepticism.

You're absolutely correct, just trying to offer hope that there are safe churches available. I'm just as guilty if I stay quiet and accept that it's a universal truth that "all hate them". Part of fighting the problem is raising a hand in support and helping people find such a place, if they want.

That's totally fair!

I'm sorry you've been treated wrongly. I don't expect anyone to assume anyone is a saint at all, just trying to do exactly what you're asking - standing up for the marginalized and welcome them warmly and let people know there are churches that are safe places where LGTQBI are safe places for them.

Not all - there a plenty that don't and actually give them support. Please don't lump all of them together.

hobo kids for Halloween.

A throwback to a time when you just needed some of dad's old clothes and a charcoal briquet for Halloween as a hobo. #throwbackthursday #Halloween #gimmesomecandy #thesimpledays #lifeasakid #cheapasscostume

I think all that is keeping the sycophantic asshats up his ass is the hope that they get money scraps to drip to them from the financial corruption that continues. Once that tap slows or dries, they'll fall away like lizards dropping from trees on a cold Florida night.

The same people who think buying junk food with SNAP benefits is “abusing the system” are fine with wealthy parents using vouchers to send their kids to private schools.

Check to see if you have underground service line coverage in your homeowners policy. It’s a newer option but some companies are adding it, or you can choose to add it.

That really is the Mike Johnson response. Apparently he only knows what Trump tells him.

I can feel the greasy residue on the glass.

Cue up Dustin Hoffman in Contagion.

So Circle City Broadcasting is buying WRTV-6. Guess it will go down the tubes with WISH-8 now. Not sure ABC is strong enough anchor to overcome mismanagement.

The long untrimmed covid beards can go away with the mullet.

If he serves his full term, he'll issue blanket pardons to his whole cabinet and advisors. He may have them already written, awaiting signature in case he doesn't get to plan that date and autopen can be used instead.

The President just announced he is giving $20 billion of taxpayer money to bail out Argentina. That’s outrageous. If he was willing to spend that money in America - to keep American health premiums from skyrocketing, the shutdown would be over tomorrow.

It's a short list. They all know how they're going to vote but either don't a crap enough about their voters to say, or are too worried they'll get craploads of negative email and phone calls (probably both actually)

Let’s hope enough legislators have spines to reject it.

Thank God that I didn't see him while there. It's a good 30 min drive or more to the resorts, poor lady had to be in a car with him at least that long.

Watch out, someone will put a banana up your tailpipe. #notaeuphemism

The cat is running its own Pavlov experiment with her patients. Is it working?

Her hubby or boyfriend is long gone, I'm sure (thanks to her).

Indeed - I've seen the average rate increase for each insurance company in Indiana - average of 27%. It's not new news to the Senate either - an evaluation was sent to the Senate with these increases back in September.

Nope, means you’re born anew!

You answered that with the word conman.

Will they stop him from replacing Abe with himself in the Lincoln Memorial?

Now that its turned cooler (we have had some frost), we have a tough time getting our corgi to come back in the house. She just lounges in the grass and ignores us. She thinks nighttime is playtime outside (even at 3 am).
