Okay, folks, we have an EMERGENCY kind of emergency. Local family already having trouble making ends meet; husband was horribly injured on the job and wife is now full-time caregiver while they await a surgery date. She's short half the rent for Monday.

Hey Austin friends - you should go to Gina's announcement if you can!

I loved this book! I've read all her books - great mixture of science fiction, romance, adventure. If you're looking for your next series to read, you should give her books a try.

I think everyone would be more relaxed, making even customer service work more pleasant. I'd keep my job, it is good work.

Many years ago, I was feeling stressed by the state of the world and I started a Holiday Fairies thing where people sent me their wishlists and I publicized them to try to get everyone gifts for the holidays. @shelflove.bsky.social skillfully took it over and made it An Actual Thing! Like SRSLY!

Here's one office Dems could flip on Tuesday. (No, it's not in TN!) The Republican mayor of Roswell, a Georgia city of 90K, finished just one percentage point ahead of his Dem challenger on November 4. The runoff is in a few days. One of my Dec elections to watch: boltsmag.org/whats-on-the...

Thanksgiving. S/b celebrated buying from small esp Native vendors. Like Wings & Aji. Read the blogpost. Share links. Buy wonderful Native jewelry Wings creates of silver & stone. Join Aji's Patreon. Send Ko-fi. It all does good. Pls RS/QS. Pls do what you can. #HelpFolksLive2025

The season is upon us. And tea makes a great gift! What makes it even more meaningful is when you know you're helping artisan tea makers in war zones and post-conflict countries. Here are some ideas to brighten any tea lover’s day! mailchi.mp/4d8005738826...

As much as I love finding new books, I'd lose my mind if I couldn't revisit old favorites. Also, I've read a lot of books, so I'd have a plenty big library of re-reads. #booksky 💙📚 #BookishQOTD 📖🦋

I've been unable to work due to a spinal fracture in August. My rent is due next week & I don't have the money to pay it. I nearly out of food & my bills are past due. I'll return to work in mid December. Can you help me get through until then? Thank you! Zelle 409-392-1981 Venmo JamesStork1966

Remember: It ys okaye to be lonely. It ys okaye to feel lost. It ys okaye to be sad. It ys okaye to have no plannes or just small plannes. It ys okaye to have big plannes that seem exhausting. It ys okaye to be a mess. Take care of thyself. Thou art amazinge.

We know that, for a ton of reasons, a lot of folks don't have as much to spend as they'd like this holiday season. Sooooooo, here's a thread of things you can do that will support your local indie bookstore or other business WITHOUT spending any more than you intended...

Now posted at The NDN Silver Blog, it's an all-new work by Wings, completed only last week and glowing like the fire in these fall and winter dawn skies: wingssilverwork.com/a-season-of-....

Hey friends, come talk music: www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Yep, this. I promise to post something fun to make up for this, but this is so true.

well, gee.....

and now it makes sense

Okay, tonight's inventory selection. Yup, just one again. Today's feature is a giant solid sterling silver cuff [shown below] with extraordinary freehand Art Deco scorework. We have another cuff, lighter, narrower, set with a stone, with similar scorework.

I’ve been thinking and it’s kind of exceptional that not a single person said “Hey now” after the piggy comment.

Hey BlueSky friends, come talk about #books: www.dailykos.com/story/2025/1...

but, I thought that Tr*mp was the best Christian ever and appointed by GodHimself to be our pope/king

Great topic for tonight's #music diary: www.dailykos.com/story/2025/1...

Hey, y'all can help people in Jamaica: www.dailykos.com/story/2025/1...

Even if you don't love romantic fantasy/science fiction, you can buy this sort of stuff from the people who wrote my favorite trilogy of all time, The Mercenary Librarians (and they are currently writing super steamy romantasy)

NEW: (gift) www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c...

if you need a break from the grossness of the news, you can read this thread about amazing fossils

from the woman who broke the story:

@support.bsky.team You suspended Sarah Kenzidor??? I thought we were the resistance over here. She said something mean about Tr*mp so you nuked her account?

Excuse me??? @support.bsky.team owes us some explanation.

So, Sen. Shaheen - did you get any assurance that the House will convene and vote on any of this stuff? @theweekendprime.bsky.social

[email protected] and whoever else is voting for this deal. They're lying. There will be no vote.

So, the deal includes a promise from the trumpista party that there will be a vote in December... Are the Dems who say they'll vote for this new to this planet? THEY'RE LYING! You can tell they're lying because they made a promise to the Dems. There will be no vote.
