Please enjoy these shelter pups reacting to getting a kiss. Some are bashful, some have butterflies, and all deserve approximately 10 million more. 14/10 for all

Spent the last two days at Texas state Capitol in Austin. Yesterday was to talk with representatives about SB208 (a bill that would provide funds to help address the housing shortage in Texas), and today we built walls for a new habitat homeowners house in Brenham. I’m exhausted! Goodnight all!

lol! I thought it was either finger cots or condoms. They look so similar. I obviously went with the more daring choice. Thanks for letting me participate!

And people like musk make that much in a week. Start with one year then do another, and another…. Yes? My point is that there are resources on our planet that can end it now and into the foreseeable future. They just have to WANT to do it.

Umm… Condoms?

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes?

Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce.

Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

But so literal. Right? Were you hoping for something more like …. I see a scrunched up face with a huge chin; it’s wearing a blonde wig… maybe it’s hair…a surfer! Oh yeah, and there’s a bent fork? :) Anyway, I hope you’ll tell us what it really is!

But remember when they were burning women alive because they were believed to be witches? One of the tests was to throw the woman in the water with hands and feet bound and if she floated, she was a witch and if the drowned, she wasn’t. Same thing. You’ll be guilty if they think you’re guilty.

The image about losing a childhood friend is deeply moving. The others expressing the angst, the confusion, anger…. Go well with the first. And I like the paper a lot. Deep blues :)

Hundreds of USAID employees have been fired or furloughed, and foreign aid operations were suspended after Trump issued a freeze on aid. The agency’s public affairs team has also been placed on leave and locked out of their systems.

This situation is escalating quickly. More details to come.

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.
