Our school tried to do that with the paper and we said we would buy our own. The principal told us it wasn't the paper that was the problem, but the copier was being used too much and breaking down. I've spent a ton of money too!

I know! I've spent so much of my own money. It's crazy that we don't have access to what we need.

When I started teaching in 1980, my gross pay for the year was $8,000. I taught for 43 years and still didn't bring home anything close to $80,000. Years ago, I had a student teacher who got a job in a public school in Baltimore. She had to bring her own toilet paper to work. Schools need money.

Hogg took a lot of flack from the DNC for what he said, but a lot of people feel the same way he does. Changes have to be made. We'll start with my senator - Fetterman!

Are there other animals they can prey on at the center? I know the wolves will hopefully be released back into the wild.

Well, I hope you won't have any problems getting it with all that's going on now.

Trump wants anti-trust lawsuits against Amazon, Google, Meta, and Apple. They will all do what Trump wants. I think that's why Bezos folded.

As of right now you can still get OTC meds without being subject to the tariffs. BUT Trump is threatening to change it.

@rx3584.bsky.social I just followed you. Underdog has always been my favorite cartoon character!

The Trump administration hopes to end protections of cherished places and expand oil, gas, and mining on the countryโ€™s public lands. We can't let this happen.

Good luck, Senator and thank you for doing this.

There was so much news today I couldn't keep up with it. I lost my sanity during his first term. I'm not going to lose it this time!

If they legally changed their name they should have a court document showing it. They can use this to get a Real ID card or passport.

I'm going to have use a different zip code to email the members since my zip code didn't work. Ridiculous.

I wanted to contact the chairman of the Agriculture Committee since he's from my state. I couldn't email him because my zip code isn't in his district. Which is ridiculous in my opinion.
I didn't think of picking another zip code. Although I did post on his twitter account.

I tried to email Chairman Thompson since he's from my state. This is what came up on his site. OUTSIDE OF DISTRICT- The zip code entered indicates that you reside outside the district. Due to the large volume of US mail and email we are only able to accept messages from residents of the district.

That's good point, but I don't want China to give in to Trump. Amazon and Walmart have to go after Trump unless they're benefitting from it somehow.

I honestly don't even know what to say about him anymore. I'm just so disgusted with him and his administration.

10.04.2025 15:32 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Walmart makes about 100 billion off the stores it has in other countries, including China.
