I've had these dates, I've had these "friends", I've had these "relationships/situationships." This is the freakin' truth. 🫠 www.youtube.com/watch?v=YE5F...

Well this is interesting. youtu.be/v3yiEuPzPvA?...

It took me several tries to pew pew my IG account. Tried on a few browsers, but ultimately, had to reinstall the app & wrestle w/ similar crap, until it worked. In theory, more openly known AI training using messages, voice memos, etc will begin mid Dec. My page won’t be 💀 til 1/1/26. Convenient.🙄

Ooh yeah, peep the commercial breakdown video. This is a yucky ad, Sephora, and Mariah! Not that I shop there anyway, but ICK. open.substack.com/pub/chrissyk...

Kudos to Tony & Albas in San Jose! I saw their post on Nextdoor, & it has been refreshing to see how many people wanted to support them. Consider offering your business to these restaurants, so they can continue to best serve their community. www.sfchronicle.com/food/restaur...

In just two months, $1 trillion was added to the national debt — an unprecedented surge — and everyday Americans will bear the brunt.

😕

I have also heard from folks in community care circles say they've heard similar things. Please share, and keep a lookout for yourselves and your fellow community members. youtu.be/2qB7wExYIsc?...

California will start producing and selling its own supply of low-cost insulin in January. The suggested price for consumers will be no more than $55 for a pack of five pens. Currently even generic insulin typically costs about $260 for a pack of five. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Well thank heck! 🙌🏼🎉

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities. Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

ICE is disappearing people to Work Camps! See this Instagram post by @cohen.489: www.instagram.com/reel/DPmGpkL...

You know how everything looks the same? You know, this living of the definition of insanity, doing the same thing, & expecting different results? This mini video essay encourages us to embrace the weird, make different choices, & maybe keep a bit of our spirit in tact.💜 youtu.be/i9coWIOPBlA?...

I've said it for some time now: I'm SO serious, whether you can get pregnant or know someone who can, consider picking up Plan B or the generic, available at all drugstores & very cost effective at Costco. If you can spare it, consider going on www.plancpills.org & getting some "just in case" meds.

Interestingly, @rbreich.bsky.social just did a video on this, where he predicted that these travel impairments could be what gets the government shut down to come to a halt. Private jets need air traffic controllers, too.

It’s so disappointing how their long game—of distracting & getting everyone to fight w/ one another, instead of the 1% & people in power—blinded folks from understanding that Project 2025 was a REAL issue. And to discern that Cheeto was lying about having no involvement. youtu.be/DendhUI06eI?...

Trump is now gloating about meeting with Russ Vought of "PROJECT 2025 Fame" to apparently determine which "Democrat Agencies" he wants to cut during a shutdown. Remember when Trump denied knowing about the authoritarian playbook and many pundits and politicians gave him a pass?

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others. Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla: “People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.” 1/3

It may be a tough pill to swallow, but it’s also been known & understood for a while, & some are JUST catching up. This highlights several points regarding recent violence, but the main points extends further to other stuff, almost circling back to weaponized incompetence. youtu.be/NtsOSYZHtw8?...

This is really a fascinating thing to watch. It’s quick, and no one cusses. It’s just really refreshing to see an intelligent stance and some backbone calling out inappropriate and untrue statements from those causing immense harm. substack.com/@arnaudbertr...

According to a new commentary paper in the journal Nature Food, some of the worst animal suffering in the world can be prevented at a rate of just a couple of pennies per hour: the extreme pain experienced by chickens raised for meat.

At least 17 states have taken steps to ensure access to the COVID-19 vaccine since last month, when the federal government significantly restricted eligibility for the shot. Together, the moves represent an extraordinary state rebellion against the public health authority of the federal government.

I’m sure this specific clip has been going around, but I watched the longer version last night. UHH…yeah that’s not legal, Miller. It is baffling how quick they were to point fingers at Dems, only to have grandma clear things up about where the family stands. 🤷🏻‍♀️🥴 www.reddit.com/r/law/s/GwKI...

This sums up a lot of how I’ve felt this year. I got myself off the time suck that is IG (aka deleting the 📱 app), & FB completely. Doomscrolling, comment section rage, overwhelm—it’s consuming. Mutual aid & community work has been a more meaningful & better use of my time. youtu.be/2pssX9KUMQM?...

“Instead of providing this office with more capacity and more resources to do exactly what the executive order says — to make sure that everybody speaks English — they are doing the total opposite.”

Things I’ve been partaking in lately have me visiting Costco & grocery stores more often. If you are looking for pantry & fridge staples, & not picky about brands, I wish to remind folks of the magic of Grocery Outlet. Basic loaf of bread $1.39, the wider multi grain $2.29-$3.49. Tons of deals! 👌🏼😊

This is such a good video essay on how automation and convenience may not always be the best choice for our health, well being, and sanity. youtu.be/EMtEx6o7LQk?...

Bruh. Depression while in this timeline, amirite!? 😂🙃🫠

Here, please have smile and enjoy this kid’s energetic performance, and honestly, a low key skill flex doing those jumps and turns in THAT SUIT! 💜😂🐔

Thankful to @ykhong.bsky.social for sharing this advice on your page. ✌🏼

Protect the wisdom protectors. The journalists, librarians, teachers, educators, documentarians, caretakers, creators, artists, elders, writers, history recorders, and archivists. Empire will always go after those that tell the truth. Protect the wisdom protectors. Be a wisdom protector.

This made me smile & nod— in a relatable, nostalgic way. Beautifully, messily, human. Substack has been a nice addition—that I already had, but rarely used ‘til now—to my “interwebbing differently” toolbox. open.substack.com/pub/leahodze...

It is a year old, but I just learned something useful. I signed up for Deezer music, & AFTER seeing this video, did I see that I am paying $3 more cuz I went thru the app store. If there is a browser site you can buy on, do that, and THEN you can link access to your phone. youtu.be/_3D_4IpKTN8?...

@montemader.bsky.social is a dang gift for all she does. youtu.be/2FbdLiIs5iQ?...

I’m genuinely concerned and grossed out for the lady that @stanzipotenza.bsky.social is referring to here, holy crap. 🫠 youtube.com/shorts/M7fG0...
