Call. Then tomorrow, call again. And the day after that, call again.

Baking has become a coping strategy. On behalf of my fat bottom, I would like to request your best quiche and sourdough recipes. Please and thank you. 🙏🏻👏🏻

Star Wars spoof comparing the rebel alliance to the current hapless Democratic Party.

Depressing brilliance from my pal Ruben Bolling.

May their egos be the demise of them all.

I love that it mentions a crochet group. I started one with a friend a few years ago. It was just the two of us drinking beers and slinging yarn. 4 years later and we have collected about 15 crafters. It's the bright spot in every week. Badass women who are fierce allies and fantastic crafters.

Both? I think there are at least 10 who need to go ASAP.

Toddlers PUT. IT. AWAY. at Costco! I once watched my 16 month old eat a whole slice of their cheese pizza. She rode out to the parking lot in the cart with the crust still clutched in her paws.

I'm concerned about people who are struggling to afford groceries and rent too. That's why I didn't vote for the guy who wants to cut SNAP, Social Security, and Medicaid. 🤔

Tap into your community. Look for your local Indivisible group for a start. Visit your state's representative offices with a small group of like minded folks and share your organized thoughts. Show up at LGBTQ+ and inclusive community events. Join your local human rights coalition.

Oh, Canada! My home and native land... Or it could be my homeland. Please take Minnesota as your trophy!

"Why on earth would they fire IRS employees in the middle of tax season?" Because the whole thing is about making the rich richer.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State.

H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Same. Same. Could have had a down payment on a house and small business loans. Instead we're giving tax cuts to billionaires.

New:

DOGE's spending has been secret.

No longer.

My colleagues have uncovered it.

Posted by the official White House account on X

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

Musk staff have access to student aid data now.

Jesus, per NYT Musk not only initially commandeered a West Wing office only to complain it was too small (he now has the old Sec. of War suite in EEOB), he tried to get himself a permanent private bedroom in the Residence!

Canadians.... Keep boycotting goods from R states.

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.

The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding Elon Musk's Government Takeover Engineers between 19 and 24, most linked to Musk’s companies, are playing a key role as he seizes control of federal infrastructure.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran.

Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

To everyone who says Democrats have no power: Do they have less political power and fewer tools at their disposal than Black Americans in the Jim Crow south?
