Today we made a "Little Guy Grant" to help save this baby Poodle who was run over and whose back legs & feet were crushed. I've spared you the awful photos and instead share his post surgery progress.

My heart breaks even further for the deportees. We know what kind, loving people they are because my #tailsofjoy is helping rescue the pets they were forced to abandon and each pet is gentle, loving, sweet, and trained. You can tell a lot about people by their pets.

Martial law would allow him to cancel the midterm elections. Amazing that there is something worse than the Epstein files that uses the files as a distraction.

Democrats and Liberals understand how to reduce crime.
Republicans and Conservatives just create more crime, more expense, and are all corrupt criminals themselves.
True freedom, true liberty, is being free from crime, not imprisoning half the population for profit.

Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott is calling out President Trump for targeting cities led by Black mayors, despite historic drops in violent crime.
Trumpβs recent comments about crime in D.C. and other major cities like Baltimore, Chicago, and Oakland miss the mark.

And yet another anniversary of the one and only, the original, WOODSTOCK!
My guy-friends and I (musicians on the move) were there from early Friday morning 'til mid-afternoon on (post-Hendrix). That's three nights and four days of nothing but music, peace, no fighting, and a half a million of us.
This is why I love to study sociology and psychology. Because why lol. Grouping behavior is interesting

Food is a key part of the habitat puzzle & measuring invertebrate abundance helps us gauge how well the habitat created through #BirdReturns is meeting the needs of birds.
