"Do you even own a black suit?"

Because those people were typically institutionalized, much like your aunt Rosemary was….

RFK JR: ADD, ADHD, Tourette syndrome, Narcolepsy, Autism.. All of these are injuries that I never heard of when I was a kid.

The miles of hiking and biking paths there have become my family’s happy place!

I live near Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie, in IL. The conservation and restoration work there by the US Forest Service, turned a WWII ammunition facility back into 20k acres of tallgrass prairie. This prairie is full of native plants, and animals, and even includes a resident buffalo herd.

“Suffer the Little Children” is a TV documentary from 1968 that deals with the conditions of Pennhurst State Hospital, and the people institutionalized there. It is stomach churning, and very hard to watch.

Thank you!!!!

THANK YOU!!!!

Thank you!

Made another trek to one of my favorite places this week.❤️

FKAtwigs reads a letter about feeling the societal pressure on women to be ‘nice’, but being secretly furious about it.

This strong #CupOfJoe goes to all women who know that being nice isn’t what gives you value. It’s living your truth.

Not a damn thing! 😁

I think many people forget that there are sports where genders compete against each other-equestrian sports come to mind. Trust me-the horse doesn’t do all the work.

Rep. LaHood (and I use the term Rep. very loosely) had 18 sheriffs deputies guarding his office from the very peaceful protesters across the street last time he made it to his district. Spineless coward!

Just got off the phone with my student loan servicer. If you need to call yours, please remember to be patient, and kind. They have zero information either, and are honestly doing the best they can given the circumstances!

Be kind to one another!🩷

Democrats hold the line. Do NOT agree to fund DOGE.

It seems Comrade LaHood is too busy bending over to do anything for his actual constituents. My husband and I keep calling, and reminding him how scraped his knees must be by now.

Adam-Thank you for having a backbone and for your previous work for Grundy Co.

If you feel this way, you're not along. And together, we're going to keep the Republic. Pass it on.

Soos has the biggest heart!!❤️

Thank you!! My daughter leaves for art school in the fall and couldn’t agree more!

A little ray of sunshine amongst the gloom-my daughter has chosen what college to enroll in, and I couldn’t be more proud of her-but also crying because my baby is going to college?!?!?!😊

Leak the report. Pass it on.

Happy Sunday from our three dogs…

I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.

I spent my childhood behind barbed wire. My parents lost everything. 1/
