Getting parental consent for abortion isn’t enough. They want a case that will allow them to legislate parental control of everything.

Yesterday was George Day. This photo is from the day we brought him home - 6/24/10. We lost George in 2023, but we still celebrate him. #dogsofbluesky #dogofmyheart #souldog

Tomahawk missiles cost about $2 million each. At least 24 were fired at Iran. GBU-57s cost about $3.5 million each. 14 of them were dropped. B 2s cost about $150,000 per flight hour. I hate math.

Damnit, Hegseth dropped me out of the chat. I had to read about bombing Iran in the WaPo like an ordinary schmuck.

It still kills me that these assholes couldn’t wear a mask during COVID to save their grandma’s life, but they seem to manage just fine while kidnapping people off the street.

Sunning on the deck. Zelda is powered by solar energy and biofuel. She’s eco friendly and perfect. #dogsofbluesky

Carrotsicles for the pups. I boil them in broth until they are tender and then freeze them. They love them. (Celery works, too. But only one of the dogs likes it. And it wasn’t on sale.) #dogsofbluesky

I wish my dogs were well enough behaved to bring to protests.

I just want my dogs to look at me the way they look at string cheese.

Who needs a weighted blanket when you have a 65 lb girl with no concept of personal space? #dogsofbluesky

People always use Sophie's Choice as a shorthand for an impossible decision, but what about Cat People? A woman has to choose between banging her brother or turning into a leopard. What would YOU do?

His newest nickname is Bougie Boy. Because he loves it when I share my raspberries with him. #dogsofbluesky

I serenade my dogs a lot. Link is totally down with James Taylor, warming up to Simon and Garfunkel, but not fond of The Pogues.

If Elon Musk, Stephen Miller, and Katie Miller are having a 3-way, that’s their business. Don’t KKKink shame them.

Maybe the Dems need to open up their own assisted living/nursing home/hospice in the DC area. We have to get better at getting out of our own way.

It’s maddening that these botched 3rd Reich Funko Pops wouldn’t even get to be *mouthpieces* without generations of feminism. Just a betrayal.

I’m trying to teach Zelda how to box.

I began to think of Merrick as a potted plant a while back and he’s still firmly rooted.

My holiday spirit this year.

Pretty sure it’s just spite and some evil AI keeping him alive at this point.

12 years since these people were murdered. These kids should have graduated high school in the spring of ‘24. And have started job training or college or something. These are the people I mourn. And all of the other victims of school shootings. We - as a country - have failed them.

These guys are worn out from all of the house cleaning I’ve been doing today. #dogsofbluesky

Andy Beshear is doing what he said he’d do. ❤️ apnews.com/article/gov-...

I keep seeing posts expressing disappointment and disgust with reactions to the CEO killing. And I want to say that if people in this country aren’t overwhelmed and numbed by gun violence, they haven’t been paying attention.

My dog was sitting in front of me a few days ago, and there was some sort of security emergency outside - possible a kid on a bicycle or in a stroller, those are red alerts. She launched off of my foot. I just realized that the bruise is the exact size and shape of her paw. #dogsofbluesky

Assad is a monster.

Ok #lawsky #legalsky It says they arrested him for having fake ids. Can law enforcement legally stop him based on his description matching that of the shooter? Does that give them probable cause to detain and search him? abcnews.go.com/amp/US/unite...

I’ve been on BlueSky for over a month, and I just got my first mansplain. It was a nice run. Is there a mansplaining block list? Because I’d subscribe. #mansplaining

FYI #dogsofbluesky

Just FYI, when you tell Alexa* to say “biiiiig stretch,” she won’t. *I am aware that Alexa is a minion of Satan - but it’s primarily for my autistic daughter to use. She asks it to tell time, give weather reports, play music, etc.

Not everyone deserves dogs. I don’t know how any dog lover could vote for a man who never had a dog. #dogsofbluesky

In terms of cleaning, glitter is Satan. And sequins are lesser demons.

The FBI is now involved in the Thompson case. No expense spared when looking for a suspect who is not a danger to the public at large. Wtaf?

Cool.

Well, this sucks. Imo, this is pretty ghoulish behavior - turning it into a game and racing for a reward. Of course, this article doesn’t say anything about UHC being a terrible company that causes and prolongs suffering in order to make a profit. Because, it’s WaPo.

My kid keeps changing my instant read thermometer to Celsius. I’ve raised a monster.

We have had 2 dogs for almost exactly 5 months now. It makes me so incredibly happy. #dogsofbluesky

When you live in bourbon country, you know about this date.

What am I eating that they are so interested in? Steak? Cheese? Nope. Blueberries. #dogsofbluesky

Insightful thread.

Interviewing an investor about this seems a little disingenuous. Did they talk to them again at the end of trading when their stock was worth more? finance.yahoo.com/news/unitedh...

I’m breaking the rule by holding my coffee in one hand and my phone in the other, leaving no hands for petting. A complaint is being filed. #dogsofbluesky

*Health insurance companies* Did you know that there is an entire industry for billing insurance companies? Doctors/hospitals pay companies to bill insurance companies. There are all sorts of codes and tricks you need to know so insurers will pay for care.

If you are a supervillain on paper, but your community insists you are “a really good guy,” that actually makes you an even more accomplished supervillain.

It was amazing to follow along as @sarahjeong.bsky.social observed and gave commentary about the attempted coup. Her coverage was better and faster than any news outlet.

My dog is very annoyed that I found her jacket and put it on her. #dogsofbluesky

The face eating leopards probably already need ozempic.
