Apparently Trump staffers are far less skilled at hiding cognitive decline than Biden's.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐- Nothing about Gunny Rose could disappoint me, but I was delighted by the events in this book with some unexpected twists and action (no spoilers). There's magic, gunfights, high stakes and high tea too. My only complaint is that I've already finished reading it.

"I learned that reality isn’t what we think. Reality as we know it is based on the concept that there’s only one world and only one β€œtrue” history. In actual fact, a long, long time ago, reality split into two during an event called the Great Rift."

President Trump has common form of heart disease | CNN Despite assurances from the president’s doctor of his excellent health, Trump may face a moderate risk of having a heart attack in the next three to five years.

He was diagnosed with coronary calcium in 2020 which can progress if untreated and lifestyle changes aren't made, which was considered "normal" for a 71 year old overweight man. It's 2025.

We’re posting about this now in hopes of drawing public attention to NOAA’s Atlas 15 project which was quietly shut down by the Trump administration before it could be completed. The work was nearly finished and could still be restarted if pressure mounts.

Is Thune progressively becoming more orange to match POTUS? I met him when he first started campaigning for the House back in the late 90's, and can attest he was not orange then, not is orange a common South Dakota skin tone.

The same people who say, "It's not a gun problem. It's a mental health problem," are cutting mental health funding.

I think an administration that cancels healthcare research across the nation and thinks there are transgender mice should probably not pretend to know anything about science.

#BannedBookSkyClub discussion of #TheLeftHandOfDarkness by Ursula Le Guin #BookSky

Would you say The Left Hand of Darkness was revolutionary for its time? (first published 1969) Why or why not?

I feel like TLHoD is revolutionary for today. Whether that's because we have backslid socially since publication or failed to fully explore these concepts over time I'm less sure. Genly explores with a curiosity, compassion, and sometimes ineptitude of discovery that is hard to find right now.

Rep. Melissa Hortman, Sen. John Hoffman shot in 'targeted' shootings: Sources Two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses were shot by someone impersonating a police officer, sources confirmed to FOX 9.

This is beyond horrifying. To my friends in MN, please stay safe.

Kristi Noem has that rare ability to shoot her dog in the face and it *still* not be the worst thing she ever did in her sorry, lying life.

Fox News runs digitally altered images in coverage of Seattle's protests, Capitol Hill Organized Protest The image Fox used was a digitally altered mashup of photos from different days, taken by different photographers in Seattle.

The Trump media lies. Here's a reminder of them photoshopping Seattle in 2020. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

We don't need your Bogus Beautiful Bill
We don't need your ICE enforcement
We don't need your DEI punishments
We don't need your Oligarchy

If you support drag story time, please call or email to compliment your libraries' programs. We get so many complaints, people yelling, cussing, calling names. The support helps counter that. It also tells us that people *want* these programs and gives us data to keep them going. #librarian #Pride

In addition to her abject cruelty, Noem we must not underestimate her incompetence. She's used to South Dakota where the largest protest is usually about 300 people and most of them are probably on my friend list. She couldn't even control the crowd leaving a Chargers game after a win.
