Oh my girl, πŸ₯Ί we're all hoping the next car you go in to have some peace and quiet will be the one to drive you home. MELIA is tired of the noisy shelter. All she needs is an adult only home, a cozy bed, peaceful walks, and someone to love her. She can live with cats. No dogs. Come on

He’s a puppy whose humans were evicted. He lived happily w/a child, loved baths & cuddles & toys.

Now terrified, bewildered, sad. Sits in the play yard looking thru the wire fence at the street. Where are they?

Now Is Not the Moment to Fall Silent Call Fascism, "fascism". And hate, "hate".

The moment when it becomes most difficult, perhaps even impossible, to tell the truth, is the moment when it is most critically important to tell it.

3 months ago, today, Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered by a Trump supporter.

They had kids, too.

Hey guys, I understand you really want the left to stop calling you Nazis - and that’s fair - but maybe stop calling everything you disagree with communism.

So Trump and Republicans are going to stop calling Democrats radical left marxists who hate God, are anti-christian, hate America, steal elections, want to replace Americans with criminal migrants, and want to kill babies? When is that going to stop? bsky.app/profile/atru...

Not satire.
Charlie Kirk called for televised public executions of professors, school boards, and teachers. "This has to be a holy experience, a teaching experience for children, watching enemies be killed," he said.
