Heinous.

My Dr recently told me I needed to lay off the caffeine. I guess that’s my silver lining?

Epstein had a daily quota too

He had Maxwell supply him with three girls a day

He raped three girls a day for 10 years

Maxwell was the brains.

She had an elaborate, pyramid scheme, She literally did everything and also raped little girls .

She’s a monster

Little Rock too

Sweet, sleepy torties ☺️

The revisions of the last two reports were brutal: a loss of 158,000 jobs from the May and June, netting just 33,000 jobs in those months.

It's like the Trump administration fudged the numbers to get good initial reporting and then hid the disaster in the revisions... like lying was the plan.

Yes! Big fan of @jonesforar.bsky.social.
Also, not a fan at all of that other guy.

My chicken, Baby, enjoys the flowers, too ☺️

I wish it wasn’t considered controversial to say that people should not be starved to death. I wish it wasn’t controversial to say that is unacceptable for all of humanity.

Unless the possums get them first! 😒

The new E.U. trade deal is a tax on American families Who really pays for the new 15% tariff on European goods? You do.

"While averting a full-blown trade war is a relief, you can’t mistake de-escalation for a victory for the American consumer. We have traded the threat of a devastating economic conflict for the certainty of a significant, long-term tax increase on everyday goods."

Someone’s been raiding my tomatoes. I’m pretty sure it’s the possum who’s been hanging around every evening. He could at least finish them if he’s going to swipe them!😒

I once read a comment saying something like "if you choose not to laugh at farts, your life will contain less laughter but still the same amount of farts". I think about that a lot.

And when teen marriages did happen, it wasn’t a good situation. My great great grandma was forced to marry an old man after she was orphaned as a teen and her aunt didn’t want her. He was emotionally and sexually abusive to her and she hated him till the day he died (then she married a man she loved

I haven’t seen many butterflies this season, so it made my day to see this beautiful tiger swallowtail in the garden this evening!

My great-great grandma was forced to marry an old neighbor when she was a young teenager and her parents died and her aunt didn’t want her. She hated him till the day he died, which was fortunately when she was still young, then married a man she loved. It was wrong then, and it’s wrong now.
