❗ALERT❗ There are 3 congressional seats up for election (FL-1, FL-6, NY-21), 2 with voting starting in 3 weeks (links below). Media has been strangely silent on this 🤔 Congress is 218 R, 215 D. If we pick up 3 seats, we gain control of the House. A major step towards stopping Trump’s agenda

DOGE will gut as much as they can and privatize the whole thing to the benefit of the 1%. It is a money grab. They will try to get their hands on pension funds so they can gamble that money away too. Repeat after me: It is a money grab. It is a money grab. It is a money grab by the 1%

I don't know who needs to hear this, but please heed my words and repeat them as often as you can to anyone who will listen. The whole point of DOGE is not "efficiency"; it is union busting. Federal and Postal workers are unionized. When they are done with them they will go after teachers. 🧵

A compilation of photos showing a small ivory head, one side is a human face with worms crawling over it, and the other side is a skull. It is made from ivory.

One side of this "memento mori" features a human face crawling with worms and insects; the other side shows a skull - the flesh eaten away. Date unknown.

This unusual object is from the Wellcome Collection in London.

Honestly, I’m surprised it hasn’t been demolished already.

Same!

EEEEEEEEE!

If you haven’t already (and assuming it’s not too late), go online and print off your Social Security statement.

Fiona is still recovering from having her bits done.

I may be old fashioned, but Pluto will always be the ninth planet, the Cuomo Bridge is actually the Tappan Zee, and the Gulf of Mexico is forever the Gulf of Mexico, so there.

Actual, honest to God question here - Trump is suggesting FEMA is at fault for bad recovery in North Carolina, but what I'm reading is that ReBuild NC, part of the NC Office of Recovery and Resiliency, was the problem. Which is it? Can anyone explain it to me?

Instagram and Facebook have recently blurred, blocked or removed posts from two abortion pill providers. Instagram also suspended the accounts of several abortion pill providers and hid the providers from appearing in search and recommendations. nyti.ms/4h3PF1x

I admit, my jaw dropped when I read that.

Fiona, all of 7 months old, has discovered the hamper.

Big snowstorm rolling in. The cupboards are stocked. Still I am filled with the certainty that by this time tomorrow, when it is impossible to go anywhere, I will be told, “ there is nothing to eat in the house “.
