I highly recommend Catfish Dream by Julian Rankin

As foretold by Michael Lewis in The Fifth Risk - only even he did not envision what is happening now. In 2018, it was unimaginable that our elected members of Congress would allow it.

Military Families Are Getting Paid, but Still Need Food Pantries Many have struggled to get sufficient food for years, their finances on a knife’s edge due to constant base moves, deployments and other pressures.

This. is. wrong.

Yeah, I've read the post a couple of times, and I don't understand where people are supposed to "buy their own"

Of course, neither does he. He just says stuff

Strong sentiment! The Gales of November is definitely going on my list.

I felt that way about both The Splendid and the Vile and Endurance (by Alfred Lansing)

The First World War by John Keegan

🍊 🤡

These are AMAZING. Absolutely beautiful. Your hard work was worth it!

Who's surprised? No one.

Nothing like having ideologues and grifters on the highest judiciary in the country.

Mitch McConnell's doing.

The fact is that Trump wants russia to win. He's never hidden that.

And now, apparently, "principled" Republicans will choke on decades of knowledge about WHO RUSSIA IS (murderous, untrustworthy thugs) to please a man lacking the most basic understanding of history, policy, and morals.

Whose shutdown?

I really hope the internet is doing its meme thing with the infamous photo of the sociopathic 47th.

If you see a good one, please share!

It's Trump's signal to Putin that he's still open for business.

The sanctions are *not* Trump's idea. Not sure where the pressure came from to force the issue, but Trump will try to get around them.

Mike Johnson, WTF are you and your fellow traitors doing??
You're responsible for this.
#republicanshutdown

100%. It allows them to evade the question

Amazing - thank you!! 🛻 🇺🇦

And you are correct that @drobotunv.bsky.social works tirelessly!! 🙌

Did the Trump administration say anything about George Soros or Rothschilds' Space Lasers? Because that seems where they're headed next.

My 5x #FiverFriday goes to Dignitas Ukraine for their Freedom Sky initiative.Their volunteer crews "track, disrupt, and destroy enemy drones before they reach civilian areas."

They need $300,000 to equip more teams. BOOST!

"When someone shows you who they are the first time, believe them."

Maya Angelou's quote keeps on giving.

Absolutely bizarre

...and if so, he/they will have earned everything that happens.

The 47th President of the United States is a felon, a liar, and a self-enriching traitor to longstanding principles of the United States.

Incontestable facts.

Good lord. I wasn't expecting that. That's beyond-reason kind of thinking.

Do Americans understand what is happening here??

Our active duty service members are being treated inexcusably. They should NOT have to take out 0% loans from Navy Federal to pay bills or go to food banks!!! This is heinous.

So much for "pro-military" Republican hypocrites.

How does Mike Johnson even know about what happened in California? So little information makes its way to him.

Only an "edge" if we've thrown democracy out the window and call authoritarianism a win.

The California maps were approved by California voters.

Completely different from this 👇

Haha - I'm driving through Campbell County this morning. Small world!

Is that a real post?? It's unhinged!

I think it's just population growth - people coming from elsewhere. Albemarle isn't rural anymore; home prices are insane!

I grew up 40 minutes north of C'ville (I'm a grad school 'Hoo). My rural county was, and is, deep red. I'm sure there are some angry farmers at the co-op this morning!

Looking at the election results from yesterday!!! 🎉👏

Spanberger Governor of VA
Sherrill Governor of NJ
Mamdani Mayor of NYC
Prop 50 ✅ California

And in our little city's local elections: NO REPUBLICANS WON

A sound repudiation of Trump the Con and his despicable Party.
