The shooter was posting about shooting up the church for a month and the FBI was too busy doing Trump’s dirty work to flag it. Now I know for sure if that happened under a Democrat that failure is all we’d be talking about right now.

Yes, but some of us only just discovered it!! (I was busy dealing with 3 kids in 4 years during your run so never got to watch t.v.) I am on Season 6 and loving it. The scene where Castiel is watching 🌽 was hysterical!!!

I am trying to figure out what kind of fabric it is. Would this be considered a damask?

It's 44 inches by 77 inches, so too big for a baby blanket. I am guessing a child's blanket or lap blanket? It seems too heavy for a tablecloth, IMHO.

And they were both lousy literature with heavy abusive undercurrents towards female characters. (Suprising no one that Elonia would choose those role models.)

Where are my sewists and vintage fabric gurus?? What kind of fabric would this be? I've tried Google lens to no avail. There is no brand or tag. It's a little heavier than what I would consider table cloth material. Maybe a light blanket? #vintage #sewing #fabric

Am I the only reader who loses all interest if there is a continuity error/something that doesn't match reality? Was reading a book I liked, until 1 of the main characters fed a dog spaghetti sauce & garlic bread, both of which could be lethal to dogs! 0 interestin the rest of the story! #writing

Photo of a long ocean pier jutting out over white sand beach and then calm ocean waters. The water is so still you can see the reflection of the beautiful stack of fluffy clouds colored pale pink by the rising sun.

I have a chronic illness. I am also recovering from a hysterectomy. My house was a mess. I've been trying to clean in between naps and other necessary errands. I finally gave up. I have a large house with lots of bathrooms. I can't keep up anymore. 1/2

It's such a uniquely #Colorado experience to be driving around on a beautiful summer day and hearing @bhtm.bsky.social coming out of more than one vehicle!

There is no magical moment, leaked document, or atrocity that's going to expose Trump or the corruption in the system, its right there in front of you and it has always been. You know it, we know it, everyone knows it. The only thing that matters is how you meet this crisis and overcome it. #3E

I can't wait until this is used in a court case to argue that his online rants CAN be construed as 'official communications'. Hehehe (WH Press Secretary says he 'directed Congress' via this platform...)

AAP will continue to publish its own vaccine recommendations after CDC advisers sow distrust The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices plans to form a work group to review child and adolescent immunization schedules despite them undergoing constant review in real time.

The American Academy of Pediatricians bluntly telling us the current CDC can't be trusted, and of course they are absolutely correct

BFF and I didn't think we were doing anything special. We were just enjoying our day together. It's a great remember that you interact with the world sometimes even unknowingly, unintentionally. I am glad our influence on the world that day was so positive for that gal. 4/4

As we checked out, the clerk said "It's been so fun to listen to you two. It's obvious you care for each other dearly, but more than that. It was all so...POSITIVE! There is so much bad in the world & sometimes all you hear is complaining. So, thank you! It's been a joy having you here today." 3/4

As we shopped in this tiny shop, we were chatting about life, making fun of ourselves, reliving old memories when we found vintage pieces, laughing about our surgery recovery (I can't bend down all that well and she can't use her left arm), and generally just enjoying the day and the company. 2/4

A bit of #joy for your day. My BFF and I (friends for almost 30 yrs) are both recovering from surgeries and off work for a bit, so the other day we decided to meet for lunch and then check out a local consignment store I had recently discovered. 🧡 1/4

I am not new, but a fun fact about me is that I am a wannabe writer. I have a novel I am working on, another one that I've mapped out conceptually, several short stories, and tons of poetry. However, the actual 'getting published' thing really has me stuck! πŸ€ͺ

Connection is so important. If you need someone to talk to now and then, I'd happily give you my number. I don't have any hs hookup stories to share, but music, humor, food/cooking, and just about any other topics I can totally do! Be well. I am glad you are here.

Congress died the moment they allowed 147 insurrectionists to remain in office instead of expelling them and charging them with sedition. That’s just my opinion.

This is lame given what is going on in the world, but I just want to say that being home alone with your snuggly dog whilst spouse and kids go on a trip without you is truly amazing. The quiet, the freedom, the rest. So good #smallJoys

The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.
