Went to look up the SNAP work requirements to counter the judgy people complaining “get a job” & came across lies our gov’t is spouting.

Hubs sent me pic of the new restaurant/bar that opened up down the road & whoa Nellie what?

Unlocked a new level today by giving directions to someone using where things used to be.

Women are being erased at the Pentagon. Women are being erased from history. And now a woman has been erased from the desecrated White House.

This is wonderful 🥹 Thank you to this sweet man (Dalton Dreihaus) for this perfect stance me and my community 🏳️‍⚧️.

78% of Americans support extending the ACA tax credits. Maybe the GOP should be more interested in working for Americans than in showing their unity. www.kff.org/affordable-c...

The trees were shimmering this morning.

Ok. Just a small note in case we need to do this again. It’s spelled fascism, not facism. #NoKings

If your voice had no power, they wouldn't try to silence you. #NoKings #RBG

No kings in the Northeast Kingdom! #Vermont

We got frogs! #NoKings

If you're taking to the streets to protest today, know your rights.

All this cruelty for nothing. Obama deported more people than Trump w/out the drama. This is all a show to satisfy MAGA’s blood lust. The U.S. is basically a version of the Roman coliseum now.

Sunset tonight. 6:00 & 5 minutes later. #Vermont

Who wants to come round Jane Austen’s house, try her soup, look at her uncle’s tiny hands, and fondle her handsome knob?

Beauty is in the flaws, not in perfection.

I started reading a book about astronomy, but it’s way over my head.

Today I filed taxes & upgraded to Win11. See procrastination is not such a bad thing.

@sanders.senate.gov: "No, Speaker Johnson, the #NoKings Rally on October 18th is not a 'hate America' rally. ... It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country."

Fixed it!

Aren’t all dogs emotional support animals?

Experiencing major schadenfreude & pride that a woman who stands up to an authoritarian gov't won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Good afternoon from Vermont. 🍁🐄

When a child reads a book and sees how a character experienced something similar and survived, it provides a lifeline to that reader. They go from feeling completely alone in the world to receiving a shred of hope. #BannedBooksWeek #kidlit

Thanks, New Yorker

Oh, look. According to Google the ACA tax credit for a year would cost just about the same as the $20B we’re sending to Argentina. What was that about America first?

Moon set at sun rise. #Vermont

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s. This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

My calendar doodle for October.

If Congress doesn’t act quickly to permanently extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits, health insurance premiums will more than DOUBLE for 22 million people. Fund the government. Fix the health care crisis. Put working people first.

The GOP have had over 15 years since the ACA passed to come up with a better health care plan, or any plan really, but all they’ve ever done is nothing.

This is it #trumpshutdown 🎥: @warnock.senate.gov

Just took a walk in the neighborhood & it is crazy gorgeous out today! #Vermont

Republicans in Congress could end the Trump shutdown today by passing a budget deal that protects your health care and takes away Trump’s blank checks. Let your legislators hear from you.

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown. Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.
