Just retired from a nominally apolitical but culturally very conservative org. We weren’t allowed to discuss or display political stuff. That’s ok, but I can’t WAIT to go back to pick up last of my stuff wearing my FDT/no kings/antifascist pins and garb. (The staff will grin; the members wouldn’t.)

Call me crazy but I don’t want my country to be a “dominant predator force” in any hemisphere. Since when is this acceptable language?!

HOW DID WE GET HERE where someone is ostensibly rationally stating the Greenland is rightfully ours?! What Orwellian Through the looking glass world IS this?!

WTF

Dear world, If anyone wants to come kidnap our leader and put him on trial I hear The Hague might be able to do something on that end…

Just making sure that 2025 is definitely over

Y’all bragging about how many books you finished…? Yay you. Now go away. Some of us dipped into dozens of books which served us at the moment (research? Palate cleanse? W/e), or read articles, or headlines, or whatever. Listen: just surviving this shitshow more/less intact is remarkable.

MAGA ex-friend objected to my profanity in recent exchange about what DJT is doing. I said if you’re more upset my saying fuck than by what ICE is doing and ALL THIS then…fuck you.

Look at this sweet girl! She’s been in the shelter waiting and WAITING for someone to adopt her! Someone go get her!

Had gift tickets to the KENNEDY center yesterday. Daughter and I posed for a picture under the vile new name. Hard to see the middle fingers but that’s what’s going on.

Agree. It’s up with Drummer boy and Frosty on my Christmas shit list.

This is why Johnson sent the Congress home during the Shutdown for 54 days, nearly 8 weeks, so the FBI would have time to redact Trumps name from the Epstein files. What a joke !

Highly recommend you follow @silverpebble2.bsky.social for her beautiful, stress-relieving nature collage photos. They’re a welcome and soothing timeline cleanse.

2020 LW is an autumn movie, however.

Not sufficiently reported: hero was a MUSLIM. 👏🏻 so let’s not go from denouncing vile antisemitism into any anti Muslim racism please.

And yet his board gives him a TRILLION dollar bonus, was it?! (How much do the workers get????)

Beautiful and encouraging

Great winter drink: Ok I’m sure I’m not the first to come up with this but I did think of it independently so I’m sharing it: Apple cider with a shot of bourbon, dash of your choice of bitters or squeeze of lemon optional.

These baby floofs had some GI distress —almost none of which made it to the litter box which is why they’re in rooms with easily sanitized floors—but they’re negative for all the bad things and have meds now. Enjoying the relief of being home.

Happy #Caturday from my fosters Pip and Squeak who have decreed I should not go out to do errands in the cold but stay here and be their bed

NEW: www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

I’m back in the kitten fostering business and altho a friend accused these gals of being too cute and therefore surely AI, I swear these are unedited photos!

I’m tired of standing here for all your hot takes, can you retire me and find a new image for your opinions please?

How can these people speak without choking on it or cracking up?!

Asking for about 90 million sane and horrified Americans

Honest Q, why not stay and be the one who stands up when orders are given and says NO??

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

This is why a con man shouldn’t have been allowed to become President! This 👇

So why haven’t they removed Mike Johnson? Doesn’t solve much but surely that’s one way to express their dissatisfaction?!

“Are the legal scholars in the room with us?”

Another occasion for someone to say “Just a reminder that ‘I was just following orders’ was not deemed a legitimate defense at the Nuremberg trials”

Any DECENT administration would say “good grief of course you must refuse illegal orders and we wouldn’t dream of issuing any!” So yeah—obv they’re mad anyone’s calling them out ahead of the illegal orders they absolutely plan….

Ohhh now I get it. ZM talked about construction, Dump got excited bc his lizard brain thinks he can get I on some real estate/building deals. As if ZM would be dumb enough…

Haven’t we all accidentally dismembered someone? My bad… srsly this is so astoundingly disrespectful and offensive….

This. I miss not thinking about the president or Congress for days on end.

Wouldn’t be surprised altho it would require Dump to be ill enough he didn’t know he’s being called weak bc a narcissist cannot stand that— he’d go apeshit, bomb idk who—

There MUST be justice pursued for all these crimes when we are back in charge!!

I think about this a lot. His narcissism will be his own downfall.

Case in point along with of course @davidhogg.bsky.social

Beautiful. Saving to use.

YES THIS

Of course I won’t eat you said the croc 🐊 to the frog 🐸 who begged a ride on his back. Folk tales were written as lessons.

I might have bought a baby monitor so I can keep an eye on my foster kittens and their mama. I may or may not be checking the feed every time I get a notification that “there is motion on Kittencam.”

I’m not saying I’m a cat whisperer because all this mama cat needed was to decompress away from the shelter, but within 48 hours she wants to hang out with me and her babies come running to greet me. Sweet to be so loved! 🥰 and they are of course VERY loved. 😻

He clearly ruins every workplace and every space he enters.

I’m back in the kitten (foster) business! Three 3-week-old babies and their camera-shy tuxedo mama, from Brandywine Valley SPCA (DC campus). The box lasted 2 minutes til I saw little bandits escaping; now they’re in a slippery-sided laundry basket! (Heating pad is cat-safe btw).

Alright Libs, listen the fuck up. Zohran just gave you the path to victory. "But NYC isn't the same as the whole country" SHUT THE FUCK UP! Zohran paved the way. All you have to do is walk it. Stop moving to the right, and campaign on working for the working class.

This would be me, tossing in random historical stuff nobody asked for. “Y’know back in the Middle Ages they would have…”
