There is no Dana

Cruelty really is the point. Who else would go to court begging for permission to starve their own citizens? Meanwhile, they send $40 billion to Argentina, buying two private jets for ICE “Barbie,” and Trump has already burned through $1 trillion in less than two months.

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?"

Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’”

“I’M PISSED!”

One is made a national story every single week and the other is shhhhh.....

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

The GOP has been told not to host in-person town halls—what are they so afraid of? Hearing from their own constituents? Meanwhile, leaders like Tim Walz are stepping up. He’s hosting a town hall in Iowa, not even in his own district, making sure Americans’ voices are heard.

It gets worse! My usual hot dog spot unexpectedly closed forever last week. Noooooooooooo 😭

Woke up this morning craving a hot dog. And now my stomach will accept no other food until it’s satisfied. 🙄

Hotel booked, ticket bought months ago, now I just need to book the flight and my birthday trip to see @dimension20.bsky.social in June will be complete.

You Can’t Post Your Way Out of Fascism Authoritarians and tech CEOs now share the same goal: to keep us locked in an eternal doomscroll instead of organizing against them, Janus Rose writes.

Word of the day….

Idk, the richest man in the world having an office inside the White House and giving nazi salutes on TV with his whole chest doesn’t seem like the results of a free and fair election. But what do I know, I’m just some dude.

I do think it’s fitting that the last TikTok video I watched was by @duolingoverde.bsky.social. Nothing stops that owl from reaching you.

I didn’t think it would hit me this hard. #tiktokrefugee

So glad that in between news stories that just get more horrifying BlueSky shows me some cool mushrooms for a little break. I have no mushroom photos but here is a cat blepping.

Falling back in love with running has been the best thing about 2025 so far.

Great letter in today's Guardian. What sort of free speech is prevented by factchecking, Zuck?

My seed catalogs have come in just as I was working on my budget. The budget has been promptly abandoned. #gardening

A post by Rev. Benjamin Cremer states, “America isn’t a Christian nation. It is a capitalist nation that has used Christianity as a tool for profit and it continues to do so.”

The truth preached here.

Tell me you have adhd without telling me you have adhd….

Why is there a frozen breeze coming through the wall at my desk?!? I’m fully wrapped up and I can still feel it.

Ugh, morning before a holiday break are always rough. But they are even rougher when you said up all night to finish a good book.

The Nutcracker returns to Orchestra Iowa and the Paramount Theater. Don't miss out on this holiday tradition on December 7th!

My favorite part of Bluesky so far? Definitely @flavorflav.bsky.social and his starter packs. I’d be lost without them! #newtoblue

Another day, another cat trying to be helpful during my morning routine.

That uncertain feeling when trying out a new social media for the first time hoping you once again find your people.
