One year after the GOP passed the One Big UGLY Bill, the results are in: • 800,000 kids lost SNAP benefits. • 5M lost health coverage. • 1,000+ hospitals, clinics, nursing homes face cuts or closure. • Health care premiums doubled for millions. That's what they're celebrating.

'Why Cats, Though? Using cats in a court setting—a place we usually associate with judgment and punishment—is clever. Here, it becomes a stage for understanding, and earning. No gavel-smashing drama, just meaningful guidance through illustrated allegory.' The Book Reviewer books2read.com/u/4X1EGa

Would have never thought!

The planet does not need more entrepreneurs selling growth and productivity tips. It needs more people planting gardens and being kind to one another.

The most corrupt "president" in history, Donny Trumpy has made over$1,000,000,000 in one year. So he's getting richer while 90% of us are getting poorer. This should be a major issue, maybe the only issue in the midterms.

Well, we know this is true. Trumpy is raking in so much money for himself. He doesn't care about people who have trouble getting enough food or housing or healthcare. But he's making billions, so he's ok with those of us who are suffering, he 100% does not care. Ann Telnaes hits another homerun..

1) VIVIAN AMBERVILLE early concept (2/11) - my epic dark fantasy series (the books that started my career as a professional writer) was imagined as early as 2001. - it included maps, character charts & (cringy) character sketches - I even drew a pretty terrible comic book series.😄

The RNC thought it had found a new way to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands — if not millions — of lawful voters. It spent millions building a case in an attempt to use disenfranchisement as a systematic tool to gain partisan advantage. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

Stop calling it “development” if the soil dies, the rivers dry, and the people leave.
