What more evidence do you need?

My teen is not flushing their 💩! We are so tired of finding nasty, disintegrating turds they've left behind.

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

Why do I *always* pee right before a lab visit where I will inevitably have to pee on demand?!?

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement? The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy. At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

A trans friend of mine confided in me this morning that he had tried to take his life a few weeks ago. His mom has been dx'd with cancer (prognosis unclear), and he lost his job. He is struggling so hard. I wish I could do more for him. I pledge to listen more, hear better, remind him I care.

Kamala was right about everything - and our media failed us spectacularly. #ResistTrump

How it feels these days.

This could be my parents. Your grandparents. Our neighbors, friends, former co-workers. Or us. This is tyranny.

YES

Enough doom-scrolling today. I'm going to enjoy my corgis improved health. She hasn't sat on my legs like this in a long time. (She had UTIs all summer, which turned into a bad kidney infection due to staph.)

Excellent update on my corgi! After 3 days of hospitalization with IV fluids and antibiotics, she is recovering well from her pyelonephritis (kidney infection). She gave us quite a scare. She has 9 more days of antibiotics. She is very clearly feeling better and is her spunky self again.

My poor girl is so sick. She had 2 UTIs this summer, which seem to have developed into a kidney infection. She'll spend the next 2 days at the vet getting IV fluids and come home at night, as they don't have overnight care. She is so very miserable. #CorgisOfBluesky vcahospitals.com/know-your-pe...

My statement on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and President Donald Trump’s meeting with military officers at Quantico:

If the Government will shut down tomorrow, blame these 2 morons. They don’t care: - To fire thousands of Federal Employees. - National Parks will close. - The Military won’t get paid. Republicans control the House, Senate and the WH and they will try to blame Dems. FUCK THEM BOTH…

This is absolutely heartbreaking. This man should not have been murdered. His children should still have a father. His wife should not have to tell people her trauma. This government is committing war crimes.

My parents have moved from #35 on the VA Home waiting list at the end of June to #8 today. My brother and I are waiting with bated breath that their move happen soon and smoothly. This has been a multi-year saga involving many different authorities and interventions.

Since when is the Substack feed filled with so much right-wing drivel and propagandist tripe? Ugh.

Low key I don’t think the U.S. military can take the Pacific Northwest

We’ll survive, but it’s going to take time to rebuild for sure. We have to be patient with the Democrats when we’re back in the White House. No instant gratification bullshit - this isn’t a one term fix. If we want to see real change, we make the GOP the minority party for a decade or more.

I confidently declared at work that "we don't have a fish in this fight" and now it's a new saying.

If we’re renaming departments and calling the DOD the “Department of War”, we might as well go ahead and make the DOJ the “Department of Revenge”

I feel so seen.

Medication prices not high enough for you? BAM: 100% tariff to double them!

The beef industry supported trompe. I won't support them. I'll find other protein sources.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets. • Joy Reid • Don Lemon • Melissa Harris-Perry • Tiffany Cross • Jemele Hill • Marc Lamont Hill • Karen Attiah • Amber Ruffin

Husband (unvaxxed) is on day 4 of feeling like utter dogshit with COVID. Kid and I (vaxxed) are like budget airline attendants: tossing him snacks from a distance and avoiding him as much as possible. If I weren't already a vaccine believer, I would be now.

Do we need to tell Carlson that he can Google everything he ever wanted to know (and then some) about all variations of sex acts? Heck, he would get pictures, videos, and offers of said acts. With a Grindr account & a valid CC, he could even try for himself.

It's official. My Hulu and Starz subscriptions have gone the way of my Amazon Prime and my Target accounts: CANCELED. My library account is getting a workout, and I increased my NPR support from $20 to $50 per month.

Let the record show that Trompe is in the Epstein files.

Is it a new thing for mass shooters to be engraving bullet casings, or is it a new thing for engraved casings to be planted?

First Trump rapes children. Then he rapes our nation.

A good rule of thumb I’ve come to realize over the last decade: if you‘re on the same side of any issue as Stephen Miller, you might be a bad person.
