My dad fell and broke his back a few weeks ago. I have been helping the folks at their house since his 7 fused vertebrae surgery and I am going to go insane listening to the garbage and lies coming from the nonstop Fox Not-News-They-Claim-In-Court.

When someone asks what parenting be like… 😂🤣 🐵 🥰

Came across this lovely columbine on a walk yesterday. #dailyflowers 🌱 #flowerreport #bloomscrolling

Something the Mamdani win demonstrates is the extent to which the reigning cadre of ancient, establishment, centrist Dems think it’s more important to be on good terms with their GOP colleagues than it is to represent their own voters, and how thoroughly sick of this literally everyone is.

I have power. I’ve had a shower. Now, if I just had a functional & progressive democratic government.

Out of power for two days so far with no idea when it will come back on. I’m going to have to off-grid-modify my house & get a cistern of some sort going I think.

Dear Democrats;

A very good read.

Crowd-sourcing some advice/info before I get in a panic. Anyone ever had a vitreous hemorrhage and what happened with it?

With a third panel up, the cherry tomatoes now have a home. Can’t wait! Mmmmmmmmmm.

The first two of 38 deer fence panels are up. They’re 8x8 ft2. Man, I hope that’s tall enough.

Hahaha! I love this.

And in an unexpected twist, it turns out the most punk rock things of all are supporting public broadcasting and patronizing your local library and not cheating on your homework with AI

Well, ONE worry vanished yesterday. My brother got a job offer. Then my boyfriend fainted out cold in the yard. He is okay. I am still not over it. Scariest damn thing I’ve ever seen as he had a heart attack last year. I hadda tell somebody so that’s all of y’all.

I’m not destitute but I feel impoverished. Not homeless but I keep thinking about surviving without one. Not going hungry but I’m obsessed with my veggie garden & pantry. Is this how my grandparents felt ALL the time? They were great depression/WW era folks & I’m starting to act just like them.

I don't care that Hegseth ordered them to install a makeup studio. I care that he's a white nationalist war criminal with neo-Nazi tattoos who keeps sharing classified information with randos in lieu of having friends. That feels somehow... bigger.

It is difficult for me to convey how profoundly unsurprised I was reading this article, which is about the world's richest and most famous entrepreneur threatening to deport his employees for pointing out a potentially fatal safety issue with his car company's brakes futurism.com/tesla-engine...

Is the “list of shows to get to know me” a thing? I dunno if it counts as knowing me but rewatchable: This Old House Land of the Lost Black: [Adder,Books,Mirror] Time Team Star Trek *.* Deadwood Merlin (2008) UK Firefly Arrested Development Engineering Marvels No Reservations

I guess it’s good to know that the next Democratic president can ship Trump and his cabinet off to a Central American prison without a trial and we won’t ever have to worry about them coming back.

The discourse around tariffs has been “things will get more expensive” but I am here to tell you that I am knee deep in reporting on this subject and I strongly suspect that if super high tariffs endure, it will shift to *certain items cease to be available at any price*

Donald Trump was convicted of more felonies than every single immigrant he deported to an El Salvadorian death prison.

If everyone I know could stop having heart attacks and needing valve replacements that would be nice. Gimme a couple of years, k?

Massive protest 6/14 in Washington, DC. This needs to happen.

I’m putting in a new raised bed garden after my 16 year old garden are has finally gotten too shaded out. I am NOT in the same shape as I was when I put that one in! Whew! 17” is a LOT of fill!

No more occupational health research. No more HIV research. Or tuberculosis. Or sexually transmitted infections. No environmental health & science research. No chronic disease research & prevention. The CRUELTY is the point. This won’t make anyone healthier. It will do the exact opposite.

I had legit completely forgotten this.

"I'm burning America down and making it illegal for you to complain about it."

We have been saying that the orange man is a Russian asset since 2014. 11 years, y’all. We’ve been shouting it. Repeatedly.

Made spicy gingerbread. Gonna eat most of it for dinner.

The writers really outdoing themselves here

Seeing calls for an economic blackout on February 28th. And then I’m seeing people recommending buying stuff the day before in order to “make it through”. No. People. That’s not how this works. Renounce whatever you would’ve bought on February 28th.

BREAKING: USAID contractors/aid recipients say Secretary Rubio and USAID leader Peter Marocco should be held in civil contempt for violating a court order to lift spending freeze.

Do you see this?

I watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang tonight. It’s been 50 years at least. It’s campy, it’s silly, it’s a mind-bending late 60’s take on 1907 and man are there layers to the historical perspective, but… …mostly it was just fun.

The Kim Jong Un-ification of America

re-reading this tweet every few years with a new perspective on who "we" refers to

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

Pretty Pretty

I just feel like the RFK Jr., anti vaxxer guy who had a worm in his head and killed and then dumped a dead bear in Central Park shouldn’t be in charge of our health and safety. I know, it’s crazy.

“People” who do not understand, do not respect, or have never needed functions of gov’t that have evolved to protect & defend the citizens, residents & visitors of the US are actively trying to dismantle a system they thrive in. Who woulda guessed chaos would rise from such misguided privilege?

headlines from a week ago as an incident near DCA appears to be the deadliest aviation disaster in the US since 9/11 www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

I'm going to keep saying this... The BILLIONAIRES think the poor, disabled, minorities, women, and disenfranchised, have too much. The BILLIONAIRES think that the homeless are getting too much help. And the fucker has the balls to sell a bible.

🧵 RFK claimed that there were 30 million babies covered by Medicaid, while the actual number is just 1.4 million (41%). Let me break this down in a simpler way to help you understand why this matters, a lot. 👇👇(1/6)
