I can't stop looking at the word "tortilla" on a can. Wuuuut ...

@mjmimages.bsky.social I kept the faith in his return because you posted everyday. Every single day. What an amazing thing to see him free. This is how we know we will survive these horrors and rebuild our country. Thank you for keeping the faith!

The fastest growing demographic of the unhoused are those over age 55. How many more ways can this administration try to screw over seniors? ๐Ÿ˜ก

Look at her hand on his knee. She is trying really hard not to make contact.

A moronic looking vehicle that has Trump stickers and campaign flags all over it. That includes a very large (window size) color picture of the top half of his body. Ish.

I cannot be clear enough on this point: politicians are there to serve you. They are public servants. Their job is to meet the needs of their constituents. If they refuse to do so and you still declare your intent to vote for them, you are both a sucker and actively abetting the fall of decency

Every time I see her before/after pics I am literally mortified. The only thing that hasnโ€™t changed is the dead look in her eyes. She must have some seriously f*cked up trauma in her past. And now weโ€™re all paying for it. ๐Ÿคจ JFC

These are not strays.

Beloved pets are heading to L.A. shelters as families face deportation. They need new fosters and forever homes.

Thank you for repeatedly stressing the importance of wx radios. It's key for weather safety. I got my General-Class amateur radio license eons ago for Skywarn. When cell phones don't work, these other "ancient" tools will. So much good wx safety education from the 80s, 90s. Still true today.

Crazy, but Iโ€™ve been thinking about that movie too and that scene. But also especially the one where Will Smith punches the shit out of the alien. Current mood.

Yesterday, Trump illegally cut off funding for public schools, precipitating a huge crisis for thousands of schools.

This is a result of the recent Supreme Court ruling neutering federal courts.
