Trying to be a normal person right now is making me feel like I’m losing my mind. What do you mean I still have to do the laundry when my kids are probably going to lose their health care and people are disappearing into the Everglades?

An introvert’s ability to hide in plain sight is only surpassed by our ability to absorb every single thing you are missing.

The risk in allowing the regime to advance its Project 2025 agenda is that the future of the Democratic Party could end up looking and sounding a helluva lot more like George Wallace (D) and Strom Thurmond (D) than Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D) and Cory Booker (D).

“We’re not going back!”

Right.

There are three Shoebills on a pastel pink background. All of them are wearing ribbons on their heads and necks. They have a peaceful atmosphere of relaxation.

Ope! It’s the Pope!

A white ranunculus flower with the small petals in the center folded up to look like teeth. Very unusual.

Found a ranunculus at work this week that wanted to bite.

Not even noon on May 1st and the neighbors are decked out with multiple checkered flags. It’s officially May in Indy. #indy500

Canada, I’m proud of you!

Right? Of all the cities I expect complete unhingedness from, Boston is the top of the list!

As many things change, the one thing that stays the same is my complete inability to make the correct amount of spaghetti for my family.

A black cat stands on a white counter top. The cat’s front legs have both been shaved in 1 inch sections making it look like he’s wearing furry socks. One of those sections was neatly shaved by a vet tech last week. The other section was shaved poorly by OP’s husband.

Nox was recently diagnosed with diabetes at a vet visit that required his leg to be shaved a little. My husband declared him “uneven” and shaved his other leg. #caturday

Just saw a woman in the car next to me at a light pull a swiffer duster out of somewhere and dust her dashboard. I aspire to this level of organization and cleanliness.

Good morning.
It's the weekend. Time to get out and meet new people, maybe?

I definitely trust him with our future.

Is anyone else just chronically tired and in a bad mood because *gestures at everything*

I keep getting targeted ads for moving to NZ or Canada and it’s so tempting. But alas, I also have 1 dollar.

Yup!

Spent a decent part of my day crying about it. 💙

Holy crap! Young did something decent? I didn’t know he knew how!

Almost everyone I know here is a single issue voter. If she said “pro-life” that’s all she needed. Indiana sucks and I’m actively searching for new friends.

“They smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

So here's another analogy I saw posted last week. Pretty accurate, I believe.

Dow jones down 1900 for year

S&P down 840 this month. Now 875 since I took screenshot one minute ago

Good news. The American empire is falling. Bad news. I’m an American

Didn’t get the job I interviewed for last week. It was almost exactly what I needed at this point in my life and I’m more disappointed than I thought I would be. Back to the #jobhunt

I try so hard to stay on topic, but these people are all so stupid and angering, I usually end up ranting too. 😬😬
