Was Someone Trolling Trump by Playing Creedence’s Draft-Dodger-Slamming ‘Fortunate Son’ at His Military Parade? Or Is It Just the Further Death of Irony? The use of Creedence's draft-dodger-mocking 'Fortunate Son' while soldiers marched past Trump at his military parade struck some as possible trolling.

Bwahahaha!!

Bracing for the day..

No!!! 😳 And yes, my skin, my metabolism, my general level of feeling normal... Want it all back.

Those suck! At the moment, they have subsided a bit for me. It's the brain fog, fatigue and achy joints that are kicking my ass! No one told me that my average aches and pains get turned up to 11 during this time. What the hell?

Sweet baby Jesus, menopause sucks!!! Who's with me?

I go to bed tonight proud to know how many people are willing to stand up for what’s right — and how few are willing to rally for his hate.

Night, all, and let us try to be good to one another — and ourselves.

I really really needed to see that people hadn't given up and accepted this shit as inevitable, or (even worse) embraced it.

And today showed us that beautifully.

No one wanted in on his tank show, but people WERE HUNGRY to tell him to go fuck himself.

Millions of people marched. Millions. We hear that number a lot, even billion, so it doesn't sound as big as it should. That's a *lot* of people. Do you know, say, 100 people? A million is ten thousand times that many. Want to count to a million one per second? It'll take 11 days.

A lot of people.

5 normal brown eggs and one huge brown egg from normal chickens.

Ouch! One of my girls laid that dinosaur egg. Poor kid!

My hands are small, but that's one tiny, perfect fairy egg!

The chicks are growing up! This process has been a joy to watch! I have raised 2 clutches myself, but to witness a mama hatch and raise and the flock take care of them, was pure joy.

Sign reads "Sorry for the barking! They are a rare breed and very reactive. They are actually friendly. ❤️"

We are trying to project a friendly atmosphere even if our jerky dogs have other notions. 🫩

Diseases are spreading. The CDC isn't warning the public like it was months ago Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.

Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.

"He ran through the entire annual budget of ICE in less than two months and accomplished nothing but violating our constitution and frightening the American public."

Mitt Romney, 2025

History tells us that deputizing local law enforcement in a specific federal action, one which by design, lacks due process, cornerstone of our judicial process, is one of the core elements of fascism. Not arguing semantics here. THIS IS HERE, NOW.

Another one for @senschumer and his fellow brave letter writers

Yup! Reagan created the "welfare mom" to scapegoat poor women, and support corporate welfare. You know, "poor women are stealing your money and ruining the economy, not the huge corporations getting ridiculous tax breaks." The GOP has shamelessly pushed the agenda of the wealthy for decades.

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises.

But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up.

It's up to us to demand something better.

All Willow's babies day 5. Feathers are starting on the wing tips, and mom is getting some much needed breaks for fresh air, wing stretches, water, and food.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

They'd Deport Jesus `An op-ed by God.

If Jesus Christ showed up today, this regime would immediately deport him to a foreign supermax prison without due process. And then they would brag about it on Twitter.

Relatable!
