PADILLA: βSaying I lunged is a lie, but thatβs par for the course for this administrationβ¦ I was behind the cameras listening, and at a certain point hearing Noem say they had to rescue LA from the Governor and Mayor was too much to take.

A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

I'm not saying it will actually fix anything for you, but we recently put up these two little window bird feeders, and they're definitely helping my brain and my heart talk to each other nicely.

Just finished the second sock! Now wearing the pair. Going to try them out tomorrow while running errands. 
I know they don't match, I'm making a decent dent in my stash. I rarely wear matching socks anyway, they just need to be the same thickness for sensory purposes.

Earlier this month, I made the decision to hire my first full time writer. I'm currently considering candidates. That said, if you or anyone in your network has experience writing and covering LGBTQ+ legislation, science, and more, please send in your resume!
If only the FBI, CIA, etc...were on top of this from the beginning.
