When did making kids go hungry become a Christian value?

SNAP is not just for the unemployed. It’s for anyone who’s living below the poverty line, which sadly includes a lot of people who are working full time jobs. But here’s the thing… even if it were “just” for the unemployed… they still deserve food! No one deserves to starve.

WCK is serving free meals for furloughed federal workers impacted by the U.S. government shutdown. These meals are available to federal employees and their families. Below are locations and hours. #ChefsForFeds (1/2)

Grown up MK here… I loved puzzles as a kid and we were definitely “gifted” puzzles that were missing pieces. Really no fun to have gotten those.

"Actual stuff"=not money, not from a wish list where you don't handle/deliver the items, but previously-owned stuff, lightly used or NWT. 1) Make sure it's in ACTUAL good shape. Hold clothes up to the light, flip through the books, test any electronics, etc. NO ONE WANTS SOMEONE ELSE'S RATTY STUFF.

the lack of nov snap benefits is scary af. food banks only have so much food. they're collapsing every safety net.

My feelings, exactly.

Dad and me at Portland’s No Kings today.

Before you buy Girl Scout cookies you should know they support transgender girls and reject donations from anti-transgender organizations. Then buy a couple more boxes

The reason Mike Johnson is able to keep the House closed and not pass bills to pay the military or fund the government is because Trump is going to circumvent congress and illegally steal that money from other government programs. All to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

The inflatables have made it to Broadview.

There is no leader of Antifa. There is no girlfriend of the leader of Antifa. They are creating imaginary people so they can justify going after real people.

The couple in costumes said they wanted to bring joy to the protests and show that demonstrators are "fun loving people."

I decided this was necessary..😁🤣 Just a quick fig-sketch, but, I appreciate people out there making ICE look ridiculous.. Keep it up people! Don't let up! #FreePortland #FreeDC #FreeChicago

Friends, some advice if you plan on spending time outside in an animal costume, sharing for no particular reason: -You will sweat a lot more than you think. Have water/snacks -You cannot move well (the Left Shark guy is a trained experienced professional dancer). Don’t run or you’ll trip and fall.

Viva La Portland Frog Brigade !!! #WarRavaged #Portland #Frog

Jack Dickinson, 26, says “we’re winning this.”

LA: we will fight you. Chicago: we will fight you. PDX: we will make you endure week after week of of improv theater.

Had a blast at the #GeorgianGlobalSalon hosted by #CostumersOfColor this past weekend. At her request, we did Boots on the Ground in addition to more traditional English country dance.

Important PSA! Charcoal is a natural absorbent. Unfortunately it's quite liberal when it comes to WHAT it absorbs, meaning: it absorbs ANYTHING that goes into your stomach and gut. That includes all the active substances from ANY kind of medication you take (incl. contraceptives, vitamins et al).

🚨This isn’t gridlock. This isn’t compromise failing. This is Trump and Republicans choosing to hurt Americans. #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

I was actually about to work on a batch of fig jam with port and rosemary. My name isn’t River and I have no idea when Mercury retrograde is.

all this is going to do is make me and all of us more rabidly portland partisan. sorry i know it's annoying we'll tone it down when the feds leave. but in the meantime PORTLAND FUCKING OREGON

And the admin is likely to try to deport him again once he’s out of the hospital.

Wow, mediocre white joke dude got his show back Now do all the POC journalists who were fired

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

Oof

Charlie Kirk was a horrible bigot who spewed dangerous conspiracy theories and misled many young people. He marched for Trump’s authoritarian agenda. None of this justifies violence or murder. Political violence only escalates and makes us less safe. Sadly, we dont have a leader but an arsonist.

So that happened yesterday… (picture was in the KATU article about RCCC)

Literally just had my mammogram today. I’ve been getting mammograms since I was 35 because my mom is a 34 year cancer survivor. My genetics test was negative but I still have an elevated risk and also get yearly breast MRI. I’ll keep doing that as long as insurance covers it.

Achievement unlocked! We saw puffins!

Good morning from Reykjavik!

On my first big international vacation in 6 years.

Whatever, Henry… so over it…

[writing the constitution] Benjamin Franklin: Write down "no dumb fucks as president" Alexander Hamilton: Stop saying that Benjamin Franklin: I'm tellin' you. You're gonna regret not writing that down

An update from us here at PBS 💙

Oh, no… I have leftover ricotta and lemon curd and lemon buttercream that need to be used up… I guess I’ll just have to make overnight oats with these leftovers so I don’t waste food…

If you don't already, watch Colbert. He is a man with no more f*cks left to give. And it's glorious. Check out this song parody from last night's show: Mike Johnson Delays House Epstein Vote Until September

My #PTFCOriginStory Was never much of a sports person but I grew up overseas and World Cup was always a big deal. The few times I had cable, if I stumbled across a soccer match, I would watch, no matter who was playing. 1/6

I keep seeing people say things like, “Well we’re not going to HAVE elections,” and with all due respect, I think this is both wildly pessimistic and also wildly naive. We are not going to have free and fair elections. We also have not had them in the past.

And now for something completely different…

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home. Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

Freedom from kings. Freedom from fascism. Power to the people forever. ♥️ Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸
