PSA: OMG you guys. There’s a filter in dishwashers that needs to be cleaned. 🤢 No one told me. And I doubt I read the manual 12 years ago. To think I’ve been eating and drinking off the stuff that’s been “cleaned” in there. I may never recover. No pics because I don’t want to traumatize anyone else.

Not. A. Victim. Ghislaine Maxwell was found guilty of sexually abusing children. Yes. Children. She herself. That was in addition to recruiting grooming for Jeff Epstein.

I hope it’s not intentional! Ugh.

He’d have to make a transfer every day for 13 years lol.

Sorry, I’m a little confused. The text over the video says that Trump made 4000+ transfers but that’s not what’s being said in the video. Can you clarify? Are you saying that Trump himself transferred over $1.1 billion to Epstein? I don’t think that’s accurate.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "This party needs to wake up. These guys aren't screwing around... They're assassins when it comes to the way they weaponize grievance and the way they play politics. Enough! What more goddamn evidence do we need? They have rolled back the last half century in real time!"

Epstein accuser Maria Farmer on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I’ve never met a more predatory, terrifying human being in my entire life. She’s a very dangerous person. The woman is not a victim, she’s a victimizer.”

Sure, the country is burning to the ground, but I was still able to order a toilet seat to which I will be able to say, “Google, wash my ass” and it will, in fact, wash my ass. #bidet #bidetlife

Read the Letter Researchers at academic institutions nationwide say that U.S. science is being dismantled.

It’s not about “DEI.”

Is there a way to like this 6000 times?

Currently wondering if I actually did order anything to eat. I know I spent some time looking at Door Dash, but I don't know what happened after that. It's been that kind of day. I spent an inordinate amount of time talking to and/or chatting with representatives of Xfinity about my egregious bill.

I really trust and respect my governor.
