The Moment

Leaves spiral downward;
the lesson of sakura -
Ev'rywhere I look.

I’m so tired of being angry all of the time, but I keep up to date with the news so I’m always angry.

I’m sick. Family of mine voted proudly 3 times for this traitor and pedophile.

While I enjoyed the book, the sequel, House of Many Ways is better, imo.

Oooooh! 😊

Stunning!

Nights like this are the best. All the trouble of the world is momentarily set aside while we're collectively marveling at the pretty lights and nature together. This is how it's supposed to be. Life, I mean. Shared joy and all. 🙂

'A Slap in the Face': Federal Employees Feel Betrayed by Democrats' Shutdown Cave "I would rather be an actual pawn. At least pawn sacrifices are calculated and achieve something."

190. SNAP WTF? A very quick explainer on what (and why) Justice Jackson issued an "administrative stay" in the SNAP case late on Friday night, and on what's likely to happen next

Here’s WHY she did it. open.substack.com/pub/stevevla...

Well, I know Avelo does deportation flights, sooooo…

Kids, seniors, those with disabilities, and federal employees need your help. Thank you.

Tycho knew I needed some cuddles today, he hasn’t done this since he was a kitten. I think he’s finally emerging from the dinosaur phase of cat development.

This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans.

Nero would be proud.

Americans are inclined to help their neighbors.

The Trump Administration is inclined to let Americans go hungry.

Ha!

It's time once again.

This game is banana pants.

I think that’s a possibility. 😖

I know there are many who are and who will suffer more than mine under this administration, but we’d really like to get a paycheck……….. essential federal employees deserve to be paid. 😞
