took a few days off for my brain and one pretty alarming observation i have is just how easy it is to not hear about the bad stuff that is happening if you don't explicitly dip into specific information streams (not a new problem but feels orders of magnitude more siloed than even 2-3 years ago)

My baby, Jonesy. To my every bone in his entire body was sweet, in my face lovable, majestically vibed, heavy purring, most incredible friend with four peg legs I ever met -until we meet again πŸ’”

β€œTerrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

if they want to go back to the 1950s, we’re bringing the cuisine back to the 1950s too. you put me in the kitchen, I will spend 100% of my time in there finding how much horseradish and shrimp I can put in Jello before God personally comes down here to stop me.

If you want to read a new book coming out but don't want to buy it, a great thing you can do is ask your local library to order it. The more requests they get, the more likely they are to acquire it and then lots of people will get to read it who othewise wouldn't.

Beef & cheddar piggies in blankets. Add 1/2 beef hot dog sliced in half again, a slice of sharp cheddar cheese, brush Grande's croissant dough with melted butter, roll it up & bake at 400*F for 15-20 min

Do I wanna be warm? Of course. Do I want my house to be warm? Absolutely not. I want my house to be just cold enough that I can smother myself in blankets *thereby becoming* warm. Please respect my process.

I looked up what a group of Blue Jays is called, which is a "party" or "band." So here is a party of Blue Jays. (They do seem to like partying it up and causing a ruckus. I could see "a ruckus of Blue Jays" as a group name working too.)

No matter how smart, talented, or strong you are there is someone out there who is smarter, more talented, and stronger; your life goal is to find that person.

And, take them out.

i have too much work to do today to ruminate on the fact that four years ago, i covered the riot at the capitol in disguise because proud boys had circulated my picture with instructions to attack me on sight & now they’re all about to get pardons.

A cookbook is perched open on the countertop in a cookbook stand. 2 closed cookbooks are shelved beneath the open one in the stand. There are 2 red & green apples on top of the closed books. In front of the stand is another apple & a red/white striped dishtowel on top of a wooden cutting board

Universal health care map

Universal health care map

70% of the world’s population has universal healthcare, but not the US

We are the only highly developed nation without it

Our healthcare is twice as expensive as the average wealthy nation

US ranks last among industrial nations for deaths that could be prevented with timely access to healthcare
