And who is going to process 42M apps at once? The federal workforce was slashed. It's going to take MONTHS, if not YEARS to get through them all. I don't think they'll just keep paying during that time. They're hoping people die so they don't have to support us.

120 out of 42M is 0.00086% fraud...

"I was just following orders" was not a valid defense at Nuremberg, and it's still not. Refusing unlawful orders is their *responsibility*. It's not optional. The felon in chief may have immunity, but they don't so it's both a matter of self preservation AND necessary for our democracy.

How awful. This is outright health disinformation, lying to the American people. Not only is there massive evidence showing no link between vaccines & autism, thereโ€™s not even a plausible mechanism based on what weโ€™ve learned about the genetics of autism, some environmental exposures in pregnancy

If anyone says feminism is unnecessary, remind them: a society that undervalues and underpays half its population is a society that limits its own potential. Feminism isnโ€™t just about fairness itโ€™s about survival, justice, and the future of humanity itself.

I work full time trying to support a family of 5 and they only give me $700/mo. That sounds like a lot at first, but we run out usually a week early. If I had to pay out of pocket for food, that's about 30% of my monthly income. Only gonna get worse...

Gov. Greg Abbott Was Ordered to Release Some of His Emails With Elon Musk. Most Are Blacked Out. Months after fighting to keep secret emails between Gov. Greg Abbott and Elon Musk, Texas officials released 1,400 pages of records. But they reveal little about the two menโ€™s relationship or Muskโ€™s influence over state government.

NEW: After fighting to keep emails between Texas Gov. Greg Abbottโ€™s office and billionaire Elon Muskโ€™s companies secret, officials have released nearly 1,400 pages of documents to The Texas Newsroom.

All but about 200 pages are blacked out.

If a friend of mine who served his full time for a felony, got out, got clean, but has to state on EVERY APPLICATION for a job that he has a felony on his record, then like HELL am I refraining from calling a man with 34 felonies who has served ZERO time for them a fucking FELON. ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก

Yep, exactly. I ran out of characters in my content or that would have been the next thing I'd have said! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Rural areas with sheep? Shearing season = wool spinning = local specialty yarn to buy. Also local craft fairs will offer community, classes, and goods.

There are more registered democrats in Texas than registered republicans. Any map that gives the minority party all the seats at the table is depriving the majority of the population of adequate representation, and is therefore ENTIRELY PARTISAN AND ILLEGAL.

Paxton is so full of shit...

There are other craft stores that are better, like Michael's. Joann's too, before they went bust. If you're out of area of anything but Hobby Lobby, you can still order direct from Michael's online, or from manufacturers themselves to cut out the middle man. Most major yarn makers will ship to you.

We should hope the latter. It seems he can't have both loyalty AND competence, unless it's in illegal matters... And even then it's still questionable.

I guess that's what happens when you fire all the good attorneys because they *LE GASP* followed the law, and replaced them with loyalists who would sooner get drunk at the bar than pass it.

Jimmy John's is the one where the founder was out killing big game in Africa, was it not? Trophy hunt. Hated that chain ever since that shit. The other two are meh, unless they've done something horrible lately that I missed because of *gestures at everything*

One of those where you cut if you can, but if not don't stress. Not top priority for most of us, I think. Maybe keep it on there but significantly shorten the entry.

Keep Chick on there, if not for 2025 ugliness, then for their perpetual holier than thou attitude and history of anti-LGBTQ lobbying. Same with Hobby Lobby. They both reek of white Christian nationalism.
