Promoting #DC local & #WomanOwned businesses is a joy esp when goods are as good as their story. #BakedByYael, across from the #NatlZoo is #NutFree and #Kosher. #CakePops are fun, travel well. Ummm the #BlackNWhites, #Challah, #Bagels. Thx #GWHatchett for this gwhatchet.com/2025/12/08/h...

Remember when #TheLaw meant something? Pls don’t let him make #DC in “his style”. www.cnn.com/2025/12/11/p... #architecture #HistoricPreservation

First, #TransSec Duffy wants us to dress better to fly and now he's ensuring hate comes before anything else. DAMN him and #ICE. Gifted bec it's critical knowledge: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/12/u...

#Profiling - #racial, #ethnic - you owe him #SCOTUS.

Yeah, #vaccinations would have stopped #measles #SuperSpreader: Hundreds quarantined as #SouthCarolina measles outbreak accelerates. Gifted cause #RFKJr is wrong.

(Is Duffy #TransSec?? ) He wants us to dress better to fly, no doubt had a hand in this legislation, so we can potentially die looking our best into/out of #DCA. Via @nbcwashington.com www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/t...

Only a #shopaholic of #GreetingCards that are posted and on arrival, are a gift, real mail of care. I never read #SophieKinsella books. Reading of her success and joy as an #author & her readers joy, made her death at 55 painful. Gifted: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/b...

Only the 8th & almost out of #GiftedWaPoArticles: Hey #FDA research how many lives have been upended from #LongCOVID while you are trying to bolster the #KennedyMyths of #vaccines being bad. A #PolioPioneer, I've never been as sick as I am w/ LC. wapo.st/4oKxjpc

#ChristmasWithoutLeads - Church’s #NativityScene, opposed by diocese, keeps #ICEWasHere sign to replace Joseph, Mary and #Jesus. Bet the #Pope approves. Gifted. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/u...

Don't have to be a #ReligiousScholar to be open-jawed at ignorance of the #USMiilitary. Maybe JD is teaching new classes in idiocy. Thanks to @mikeymrff.bsky.social for advocating for #Hanukkah which is NOT the Jewish Christmas. And the illustration? Brilliant! www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

If I could fight for #Ukraine, I would. "Peace deal"? Feh. Hope #Europe will help them. Just WaPo lede; not wasting gift. "Ukraine will not surrender territory to Russia, #Zelensky says, which could mark collapse of Trump’s plan to end war." Looks like #FIFA medal is as far as he goes on peace.

U.S. #citizens getting caught in #immigration crackdown bec the #SCOTUS6 said #RacialProfiling is appropriate. Can we make #DUI profiling & arrests of white skin red-faced men like Kavanaugh ok too. Gifted article bc it not my country either.

US #citizenship granting and ceremonies halted bc of #CountryOfOrigin of some. “Do it the right way” as long as your skin and birthplace are approved after the fact. Gifted article. Add objection to this to list for calls. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/06/u...

He and #MayorFrey for a #Peace and #Humanitarian shared prize.

The words and illustrations from @brodner.bsky.social in #TheGreaterQuiet Substack always move me. This one is particularly wonderful. Subscribe please. open.substack.com/pub/stevebro...

There is no legitimate reason not to release the complete Sep. 2 video. They released video of the first strike. What national security justification could there be for releasing video of the first part of the action but not the second? They wanted to cover up what happened after the first strike.

Will #Barron be sent away if #SCOTUS rules to remove or redo the #14thAmendment? Implications on this are very scary. Could cut US population in half. Ok. Exaggeration but damn. GIFTED www.nytimes.com/2025/12/05/u... #BirthrightCitizenship in question.

Plan your #USNationalParks trips accordingly. Via @washingtoncitypaper.com.web.brid.gy and @sfgate.com - #racism policy continues. www.sfgate.com/national-par...

Not one good or polite word to say about him or his closing the gov & harming so many to be a lapdog.

Spread the word to #NewYorkers who need help covering #Heat - it’s essential and needs to be safe. Thank you, #Mayor-ElectMandami. You’re such a mensch.

Donald Trump—if you are truly pro-IVF, then defend it for our heroes. Tell your Speaker of the House to fall in line and stop single-handedly trying to kill a provision that would cover IVF for military families. Enough promises. Let’s deliver. www.ms.now/news/mike-jo...

Great idea G-d, much better than when you allowed creation of Kegshead & 1600 Penn Av DC periodic resident.

This is the most consequential story for the 2026 midterms. Yet, I cannot find it anywhere on legacy media. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Cmon @randyrainbow.bsky.social , isn’t there a song to do about more family #grifting..or was her allowance cut?

Funny in a not ha-ha way. Thanks, @desertphile.bsky.social .

The obscenities of the regim go against any policy and all #humanitarian considerations “Make babies” MAGA says but not if you are …. 19thnews.org/2025/12/post... Thank you #19thNews

Using a beloved #Canadian #ChildrensBookCharacter and the comment from #Kegshead office is worth using a gift article. Make this cancer - regime - go away. wapo.st/4ozYjYp

I wrote postcards for #AftynBehn - you, #Tennessee, vote for her in #TN7.

And that’s the story of the 6’s statements of “illegal orders” and SOP. Kelly is a mensch.

What now then? 47 & SecDef say they didn’t utter that directive yet “in the rooms where it happened” or a recording somewhere, plus them bragging about these actions, there’s intel.

There has never been #art - theatre, drawing, painting, paper-cutting, music played and sung, dance, embroidery, quilting, puppetry and all other forms - that didn’t inspire my brain to connect to problem solving. Yes, entertainment and beauty and when open, life’s wonders. Alas SecEd cares not.

This, by #CharlesPierce, about the attempted WH rationale of murdering suspected #DrugTraffickers while pardoning a convicted to 45 year drug trafficker, shows the connections. Idiocy continues. www.esquire.com/news-politic... (So does thinning hair & a new Miss Clairol color.)

#Racism in the US regime? Whyever would I think that?!Tell those who are to represent you in the govt that this negates reality & they need to correct it. www.axios.com/2025/11/29/f...

Australia & #vaccinations and respect for and care about woman. #CervicalCancer be gone.

The regime won’t allow history to be taught bc they know none.

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

How is one supposed to even comprehend let alone accept this of the day’s many obscenities?

#KillEveryone said #SecDef - including those who survived on first boat bombed in the Caribbean. Last gifted article for Nov. Know what "good regime Christians" are doing because from a great distance they just know and it's the "warrior ethos." Damn them. wapo.st/49KbUJ1

#ShopLocal #DC - recommend #BakePeaceByTimmy - order ahead for pick up or delivery. This was our anniversary treat last week. It was on a cutting board on our kitchen counter. Now devoured.

Might we “assimilate” their hoped for change?

This is beyond desperate. So since Republicans can’t stop people from voting, they send mailers with the wrong date for the special election on 12/2. Tennessee, we will see ya’ll on Tuesday! Let’s do this for @aftynbehn.bsky.social #TeamAftyn

Gift and purchase #ReturnsPolicies are tightening bc of massive #fraud. If you got a #TrumpBible or other of his logoed item and tried to return to somewhere what happened? Asking for a friend. theconversation.com/retailers-ar...

From childhood to 75, I loved early mornings, quiet, time to reflect. Then COVID in 4/2023 led to #LongCovid and I miss the former me.

For your favorite #traveler (or #FellowTraveler), #techie, #TravelDept folks, one of my fave #tech & #travel writers, @njdavidd.bsky.social, created these. Yes, David, Joe was right: guffawed and am grateful I travel no more. Thank you. www.bonfire.com/store/dantos...

GOP Rep. #MarjorieTaylorGreene announces she is resigning from House. As if the week weren’t strange enough.

Always @mikeymrff.bsky.social helps. They are an organization needed ever more now. Donate and tell others, especially #ActiveDuty service members and those attending the academies of where help can be found.

Thank you to the people of #Charlotte for setting examples in melting #ICE. Thanks to @brodner.bsky.social for #TheGreaterQuiet Substack showing us all your commitment to good. open.substack.com/pub/stevebro...

Patriots in Congress: the military should not follow illegal orders Draft dodging orange shit stain traitor that staged an insurrection: those Patriots are punishable by death! Republicans: yes orange Jesus!
