“If the immigration enforcement apparatus of the United States were its own national military, it would be the 13th most heavily funded in the world.“ - @sarahlazare.bsky.social & Lindsay Koshgarian, @inthesetimes.com inthesetimes.com/article/ice-...

This is a beautiful tribute and entreaty. Speak up.

79. American citizen.

Gupta: It is safe. That’s what the best-quality research shows. And how irresponsible, using the podium of the WH to put this out there when you’re not even offering an alternative. That is dangerous. An untreated fever is dangerous. Untreated pain in pregnancy is dangerous.

Let's be clear: no one should be taking medical advice from the man who told Americans to inject bleach. To moms worried about the Tylenol they took while pregnant: you deserve better than being RFK Jr's scapegoat. And to the autism community: you are loved exactly as you are.

We have become the worst version of ourselves. Not that it can't get worse, but still.

I am wobbling between one of the most disturbing sweaters I have ever seen and googling where to buy it.

@hankgreen.bsky.social @scishow.bsky.social This is how you talk about knitting and science. Watch & learn. A re-do of your own would be nice, but since you have yet to do a real apology, I'm guessing that's too much to expect. youtu.be/5btQokB32dQ?... #knitting #physics #scishow #hankgreen

Goodbye, Disney+!

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

Saw that coming. Can you blame them??

Before, during, and after. Llama unicorn with chewed ears gets new ones!

Valentina has suffered a grievous injury. Luckily, she signed on to be an organ donor, so several stuffies will get the #GiftofLife. Stay tuned for the AFTER pics. If you see the dangerous animal pictured in the comments, do not approach. She might suffocate you with kisses.

Had a particularly nasty reaction to #Lyrica. Just 20mg once a day brought on: - stiffER joints - muscle pain - stomach cramps - stomach pain - constipation - bloating - hot flashes - extreme fatigue For 3-8 days. Felt like a horrific flu + bowel obstruction, even after constipation resolved.

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

🇺🇸 National Guard soldier speaks out: “I swore an oath to defend our constitution… seeking refuge is not an act of violence. Locking people up for it is.”

Who wore it best? Thought I might have my new Halloween costume, but I don't do horror tropes (and this would qualify even WITHOUT the twins from The Shining). Besides, my eyebrows and mouth aren't thin enough, my forehead isn't high enough (shocker, I know!), and I don't have magic underwear.

#ProudBlue This is such an important lesson!!! @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov @ericswalwell.bsky.social @lindseyforcongress.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social @repjasmine.bsky.social @maxwellfrost.bsky.social Please listen & learn! Let’s unite!! Let’s not make the same mistakes

Abhorrent.

Two more gifts finished. Leather purses with metal embellishments.

ICE in Livonia Michigan Middlebelt & Puritan. S of 6 mile #ICE #Michigan

Anatomically correct Platypus (almost). #Monotreme #Platypus #Knitted #Knitting

Loving the progress of my" Extra" platypus. This is an anatomically correct platypus. Since the eggs come out otlf the cloaca, I thought I would make a couple and give her a cloaca. But then what else comes out the cloaca?? Hence the "extra part." LOL. #Knitting #Knitted #Stuffing #Platypus

On this day in 1868, the 14th Amendment was ratified. The text is just as clear and relevant today as it was back then. Donald Trump is trying to erase this.

Lettuce tastes great on your #July4 burger or salad. Harvesting it is an extremely difficult job because of the constant bending down and use of sharp tools. As we enjoy our holiday BBQs, let's remember the farm workers who make this meal possible. #WeFeedYou

Donald Trump is attacking me because he is desperate to distract from his war on working people. We must and we will fight back.

Where is he? If we stop asking, stop demanding his return, we are complicit in his disappearance.

This makes me physically ill. This is a dark, dark time in our history.

School teachers have to struggle to get supplies for their classrooms and pay out of their own pockets to provide basic items and tools, meanwhile ICE that is of no value to society is given $140 billion of your tax dollars to terrorize school children and communities.

Which is exactly what happened to my mother's father in Paris when she waa 8. The 💥GESTAPO💥 "snatched" him out of their apt. (cuz he was Jewish) NEVER to be heard from again. He was 42! My mom told me ICE is the "modern" day 💥GESTAPO💥 She should know! 😡

JFC. WTF???

More jewelry. I purchased the large piece from Latvia but wanted to dress it up. I added dangling smaller pieces but didn't want to drill into the original piece, so I made a removable scaffold out of wire. It just slides over the pin.

he's right and he's right to say it

Makers be makin' Making jewelry for Dainų Šventė in Cleveland this weekend. #DainuSvente #Amber #Lithuania #Lietuva

Sae Joon Park, a Purple Heart vet, forced to self-deport after 50 years in the U.S. over old drug charges tied to untreated PTSD. A hero shot in combat, now cast out by a system blind to his scars. Betrayal bites deeper than bullets. #VeteranDeportation

Came across this beauty chilling right in the path of big boots and big dogs, so I tried to move her to the side. She wasn't having it and wanted a ride. I managed to get her onto a log further down the path. #WednesdayWalk

WTF? The constitution is crumbling. And SCOTUS is wielding the sledgehammer.

Impeach the motherfucker.

Thanks to a tRump purchased SCOTUS



They've got enough money to throw us into another war, but not enough money to fund the suicide prevention hotline. Very "pro-life." Very "pro-family." So "GREAT."

The latest in children's Little Golden Books (until it is banned 😂)

THIS is why I love #hatchbacks. Fit TWO tall #Ikea Billy bookcases and one short one into my #Prius along with a bunch of other stuff. AND the hatch closed.

Taking notes. . .

@parkroseperma.bsky.social - Hey! Just wanted to let you know an imposter is soliciting What's App contact on one of Allie's seratonin sandwich videos. I tried to report it, but stupid YouTube changed and the navigation buttons cover the "Report" link. Grrrrrrr. youtube.com/@parkroseper...

It’s the beginning of another week, same as the other week! That alone may be a good enough reason to feel bored or detached. But maybe there’s something deeper going on here. Here’s the Tarot for Tomorrow, Monday, June 16, 2025. #tarotsky #occultsky
