YouTube video by Rep. Melanie Stansbury Rep. Stansbury: Trump is sending $40 billion to Argentina while withholding food assistance

Breaking news! 15 days into a government shutdown, and Trump has promised a $40 billion bailout to the Argentinian government on the backs of the American people using YOUR taxpayer dollars, while threatening to cut off food assistance to American families. ⬇️

"We assume Trump supporters will abandon him once conditions deteriorate enough, once policies fail badly enough, once reality becomes undeniable enough. History shows us something quite different about how people behave inside sealed information environments..."

A figure of a black cat sitting, tail curled around several pumpkins. On its back are vines, leaves and miniature pumpkins.

The same figure but instead of black, it is bright blue, glowing in the dark.

I'm sorry! That really sucks 🫂

At what point will our media ask about Trump’s obvious mental decline? He’s so far gone that he does not remember he was president in January 6, 2021

My boss: so how's our fourth quarter looking?

Me, the sales manager at the company that makes inflatable frog suits: well, you're never going to believe this, but

A flat sculpted gryphon portrait. He is various shades of blue with an orange beak and eyes. He has large fluffy ears.

Sculpted charms of a canine tail in various shades of brown with a matching tan paw with blue toe pads.

A few recently finished commissions. Since sales are pretty dead, I will stay open for these for the next week or so. These are available individually or at a small discount if you order as a set. Worldwide shipping available. Last chance for custom work b4 the holidays.

Payday? There’s still some time left to preorder a Halloween figure. These close next Wednesday.

WTF?!?

I'm so sorry MJ! 🫂

What Did My Mother the Chemist See in Betty Crocker? (Published 2014)

I've written about my mom several times, so in her memory, I'd love if you read about her. Her Betty Crocker cookbook (though thankfully, not her parenting!) inspired parts of my first novel, Everything I Never Told You. I wrote about her, and it, here.

Premium increases notices will soon arrive in the mailboxes of Americans all over the US.

The average increase? 114%.

For some, the numbers are even higher:

A couple making $129,000 with two adult children at home in Savannah, GA, will pay $3,150 more per month for insurance.

Both my democratic senators voted for this. I don't know what to do anymore. I call and call and try to make this place better but if my legislators won't listen to me I don't know what else to do. I'm starting to understand why some people just don't vote anymore. I feel so defeated.

Hey ABQ peeps! There's not just another choice in the mayoral election next month... there's a better, more progressive choice. If you haven't checked out Alex Uballez yet, please go to his website and see his plans to make ABQ better for all of us @alexforabq.bsky.social

A set of three photos featuring a seated cat with spread feathered wings. It is looking up inquisitively with a paw raised. She is calico colored with dark brown and tan.

Just finished up this custom painted Sky Cat. I really love how it came out. I am currently closed for customs on these but will reopen for them in the new year.

This 4-year-old's heart is failing. A federal grant that might help him was canceled A Cornell University researcher has been developing an artificial heart for children for more than 20 years. Now, his research is on hold and his lab is shut down.

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it.

Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities — including the grant for this device.

The cruelty is endless. www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

A good example of Dems not adapting to MAGA war mindset is that they keep telling reporters they can't engage on Trump's military occupations because it's a "trap" to entice them into a losing debate about crime. That concedes too much up front and plays by old rules.

Good news to my EU followers! I have reopened shipping to the EU courtesy of Corvo Cattivo’s services.

I never got a response to my attempts to appeal the "rude" label I got slapped with... feels like a pattern.

A montage of 4 autumn/halloween themed figures. There is a skeletal dragon, a mimikyu with a pumpkin, an orange tabby cat with pumpkins, and a crow sitting atop a dragon skull.
