I know it’s almost a meme that Americans don’t understand subtleties, but listening to the British king roasting the US Congress and them just clapping… 😬

❗️Unwavering resolve is essential to defend Ukraine and its courageous people in order to achieve a lasting and just peace, said King Charles III of Britain in the US Congress. He drew a parallel with September 11, 2001.

Happy 93rd birthday to Willie Nelson! Clip from Outlaws and Angels, Live at the Wiltern Theater, 2004.

Make your own music. 🎶

Yes, he should.

The amount of casual homophobia on radio morning shows pisses me off. The caller mentioned a flaming car on the side of the road. The hosts immediately start with gay jokes. The caller thankfully said “I’m talking about fire, not putting people down”, and I cheered. So sick of the hatred.

My son got to lay a wreath at the Tomb of The Unknown Soldier today. What a powerful moving experience.

Happy 68th Birthday to Michelle Pfeiffer 🎂 (Born 29th April 1958) 💜

Blaming children for not knowing how to read or comprehend, like we don’t see grown adults doing the same thing on this site everyday.

Look. We knew they would gut the Voting Rights Act. It’s upsetting. What does this mean? It means we fight harder. It means we work harder. It means we all volunteer a few hours to help turn out voters. You can’t just vote anymore. If we all help, we can win.

What Israel is doing in Palestine and Lebanon is terrorism. What Trump is doing in Iran is terrorism.

The FBI is raiding daycare centers in Minnesota, yet not one person in the Epstein files has been arrested in the US. Seems a little weird, right?

Jimmy Kimmel: There’s so much nonsense – and I mean that in a very literal sense of the word: non-sense happening. And at the same time, there are also so many awful and scary and flat-out unbelievable things going on. The world has been turned upside down, mostly for no good reason. He did not win

Uber is signing people up for their $9.99/month "Uber One" account without their permission. Since we are without a working DOJ, be on the lookout for these unauthorized charges.

AOC tells PabloReports that the reinstatement of the agent who shot Renee Good is a reminder of why Democrats should not give ICE and CBP a dime. AOC: Every single person that that man encounters is in just as grave danger as she was in.

Parenting fail before we were even out of bed today. Tried the 'finish toxic parenting phrases' thing with eldest. His answers were lovely: 'I'll give you something to....' 'Hold on to.' 'Children should be seen and...' 'Respected.' 'I brought you into this world and I can...' 'Take care of you.'

Buffalo plays the Canadian anthem even when Canadian teams aren't present. And when the microphone cut out the people did the job admirably. That's what neighbours do. Buffalo proud. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdFv...

I asked the sales manager what's the difference between front-wheel drive, all-wheel drive, and rear-wheel drive, and this was his response! 🤣

“Superhero fatigue” was never real.   It was always BS made up by pretentious film nerds so they could act better than everyone else for not liking certain movies.

So, I read where some police folk were watching the security footage of the shooting. The "shooter" did not fire a shot. One agent fired across the path and hit the other agent. So... to put it more simply... looks like the "shooter" never fired a shot! He just ran through a security checkpoint.

Half of the AI data centers have been cancelled. A quarter are under review. And just 24% are being built as planned. The AI scam is dying.

Today's marks 4 years since my mother died. Think about her daily.

I had to take my daughter to a specialist, nothing serious she is fine. However it used to cost us $40 for a specialist and now it costs $99. On top of that my monthly payment has gone up almost $200 and all of our meds have gone up in cost. With having a chronic illness that makes life expensive.

The dumbing down if America started with another wanna be actor. Reagan. My Mom warned us. The table was set. And he had Alzheimer's for the last 2 years of his Presidency.

Got the best and worst hamburger helper outta this thang.

We have to name and accept that many across the US political spectrum are most comfortable with politicians who aren't Black. Some on our side have declared they don't think representation matters. That's why they aren't blinking today. Their silence is always telling. And it is seen and noted.

The Republican Political Party is allied with the Kremlin. The Kremlin is dictating conditions in the United States.

Anti-Fascism is the least we can expect from each other.

Shohei Ohtani has pitched 30 innings this season and allowed a total of 2 earned runs. The guy is absolutely incredible.

High school teens are repairing used cars to donate to single moms A Virginia community is coming together to help moms in need, one car at a time.

Notice how a book can make you gay, a vaccine can make you autistic, a mask can make you sicker, and a poster of the Ten Commandments can make you moral, but guns don’t kill people.

I was lucky enough to finally see him in concert last year. Happy Birthday Willie!

Ugh... I was watching a film just now and thought something seemed off, and then realised the volume wasn't on a multiple of five. Thankfully now it's sorted and the film will be way better.

Born 29 April 1958, actress Michelle Pfeiffer. She began her acting career with minor tv & film appearances, & had her first leading role in the commercially unsuccessful Grease 2. Her breakout role as Elvira Hancock in Scarface (1983) gave her mainstream success. #MichellePfeiffer

Not far down the road from me, across the border, a mic wasn't working for an anthem singer at the hockey game. The Buffalo fans responded by standing and singing the Canadian anthem. This reminds me that many Americans are our friends, especially those who live just across the border...

Whenever I cook for my bf, I send him home with leftovers. So I bought a small set of reusable containers that are basically his. Last night he sent me home with one filled with pie that he made. He was so happy to be able to give me something he made 🥹

ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee Good. Reports say he is now back on active duty in another state while the FBI probe remains stalled. No charges. No public accountability. A dead mother. A protected agent. This is protection for the machinery.

My solar panels were activated today! Not only that, but they have been activated for only a few hours and are already making more power than I use and it’s been extremely cloudy and rainy out. This was the best decision I ever made omg.

For years and years I collected DVDs (then BluRays.) Then cheap streaming happened and I felt like I wasted a lot of money (Fact check: true.) Now that streaming is no longer cheap and older movies and tv shows are getting harder to find, I’m glad I have the discs.

As Prince of Wales Charles stepped over the political line to stop redevelopment of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, and famously remarked that post-war architects had done more damage to London than the Luftwaffe. This is not an accident.

Ted Mosby and Robin Scherbatzky had zero sexual chemistry

This👇🏽 deserves to be posted 100 times but I’d be labeled spam.

I won't be celebrating the 250 yr anniversary of America the Great. I will be terrified that all the flags will symbolize the end of our democracy. The flags they used to assault law enforcement at the capital and trash it. Please, someone, offer an alternative on that day.

Shame on everyone for letting this Epstein thing go on so long.
