Target is joining a wave of US companies pulling back on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, as right-wing pressure leads companies to alter their commitment to hiring diverse candidates and expanding access.

Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From β€˜biggest crowd ever’ to β€˜normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

I don't really use TikTok that much, but I find it fascinating that our government is on the verge of banning an app for national security reasons that are still unclear in the same week that Meta, the largest social media company, says it's now fine to hate LGBTQ people and call us mentally ill.

Which part?? Girl a Jamaica me come from too, lmao. I'm from Seaford Town (German Town) in Westmoreland. That Escudo I was driving is at the driving school by Pier 1 in Mobay. I don't know if they still have it though. Probably not. πŸ˜…

It's official. I'm getting old. I injured my knee while sitting and doing absolutely nothing today. I was in an Uber and the guy slammed on the brakes unexpectedly. For some reason, when I tensed up, I also tensed my knees........and now my knee hurts.

Farewell sweet youth. πŸ₯Ή

Lmao! I didn't think of Alexis in a Lexus. You're hilarious πŸ˜‚ The old Escudo I drove looked more like the Jimny and Samurai than Vitara as we know it now. I think that was just the design style at the time.

What country are you in by the way?

YOU HAVE A JIMNY??? I love that car! I learned to drive on a Samurai and an Escudo in Jamaica. πŸ™ƒ They're not in the US, but they're definitely on my list for Europe. They're coming out with a hybrid in a few years so I'd love to see that. I do like the Lexus LBX but it's no adventure rig.

Don't forget all the ads for cheap Chinese products because the big guns pulled their ads after they were told to go f**k themselves. πŸ₯²

Aw, that's sweet! The yellow ones are so festive! Mine was all white so I didn't get the two-tone look. I painted the roof black and added black accents to "fix" that πŸ˜…. The thing on top is a rooftop tent. I was full-time in the wild from 2020-2024. I hope you get one! You'll love it.

Thank you! He's a pleasure to drive and the absolute love of my life. I'm never selling. They are very powerful but they're geared to be strong, not fast. You won't be getting any speeding tickets in this bad boy. But he tows my trailer and has never left me stranded. Here's my full setup.

I left my beloved FJ Cruiser with my parents. My Dad asked me recently if he could borrow it and made his case for why it will benefit Samson (my FJ) if he goes for a ride on the open road. πŸ˜… Hilariously, I would have never told my dad no. But I love that he respected me enough to ASK.

Providing birth control to women instead of policing their bodies is the REAL way to lessen the number of abortions.

Lessons to be learned.

One can hope, but I don't think so. I wrote a long email explaining and they ignored it and just said my deferral was approved. They don't care at all.

I tried. They admitted I was still a resident but essentially said, those are the forms they have so I should just pick one. I opted for a temporary deferral. It's not a permanent solution, but I've reached out to several organizations and my congressman about it. It seems to be a form used GA-wide.

Here's the form they sent me to fill out.

For additional context, I have a permanent physical home in Georgia, my vehicles are still registered there, I have an active Georgia license. I pay taxes in Georgia. And I voted from Spain in my local Georgia county for the most recent presidential election.

I got summoned for jury duty in Georgia and obviously can't make it because I currently live in Spain. They said I have to renounce my right to residency in my county, and thus, my right to vote, in order to be excused from jury duty.

Does anyone have experience with this?

No clue! πŸ˜… I haven't seen any houses in the city and haven't been to the suburbs yet. But some apartments have that UK one where there's a hole in the door for the mail man to drop the mail into from outside.
