We need to get this message out to the American people, because many don't really understand why we CAN NOT sign the "big beautiful bill". Among other disasters, the bill would increase our health insurance premiums by an order of magnitude. No average American can survive this.

While millions of Americans are being starved to death, Congress and The Orange Turd's people all will be getting paid. I'm not suggesting we deny them pay during this time. I'm suggesting we deny them food and see how they like it. See how long this goes on while THEIR tummies growl. #eattherich

Crazy idea: What if we made all the billionaires actually taxes, then give the money to the farmers and farm workers so we don't all starve to death? Just a thought. #eattherich

share.newsbreak.com/flsfz1nz This is why we need to fight back. We need to protect each other from these criminal bullies.

Do you ever just want to scream, "I TOLD YOU SO!"? I've been saying he's a narcissistic sociopath for over a decade. #nobodylistens

Im so depressed over the current state of our country, all I can do now is post pictures of our pups. Too bad everyone said I was overreacting. #dogsofbluesky #disappointed

share.newsbreak.com/fg93bzh4 The OrangeTurd's total disregard for the law

Feeling increasing urgency to flee the authoritarian regime of rampant bigotry. Spending the last 50 years as advocates for equality has made us targets, with no protection from the police, military, or federal government. We're considering Europe, specifically Slovenia.

share.newsbreak.com/fcklxkbb The next step toward authoritarian fascism in America. When will someone put an end to this madness?

apnews.com/article/chic... The authoritarian regime is attempting martial law, institutionalizing fascism, and priming the country for civil war. He's actively trying to incite the military to act against the American people to further his narcissistic ends. And we're still trying to "all get along"

#resist #notmypresident #pushback #speakupandspeakout

apnews.com/article/trum... Only the inherent discipline of the military leaders prevented them from stabbing the administrators in the eye with a fork. Ego-flexing machismo put them and their troops in unnecessary danger. Commander-in-Chief DOES NOT EQUAL Ultimate Dictator. #ConstitutionalOath

History will record that the left fiddled while America burned. Our collective indecision and lack of will amounts to cowardice, and will be our doom. Our unwillingness to recognize and directly confront fascism will allow it to flourish. Few options now remain.

Remember your oath to the Constitution.

apnews.com/article/trum... We're now further down the road to military dictatorship under the orange turd.

I've decided to change my name to Quin Parker. It's time to shed the baggage of my old life and become the person I wish to be.

Completely demoralized and broke. We made the best bags in the world, but it didn't matter.

Hundreds of hours of work are sitting in totes. www.timelessleatherworks.com Bills and mortgage are due. Now offering 20% off everything.

If anyone would like a bag, now is the time! 10% off any item in our store cuz we'd really like to eat this week.

Update: We will not be at The Anacortes Art Festival because the City of Anacortes booted us without notice. Some of our inventory can be found inside Chilly Rain Retro. Feel free to express your displeasure to the City of Anacortes.

Please come on out to the Anacortes Art Festival and see us this weekend! We're in front of Chilly Rain Retro on the corner of 4th St. & Commerce Ave. #Festival #bagsofbluesky #bag #leather #smallbusiness

Corporate America sucks. Nuff said.

Had to cash out my 401k cuz times are really tough. After a year and a half of working 15 hours per week, I had a grand total of about $150 in my account. When I pulled it out, they took a $75 fee and a forfeiture fee of over $30, then the 20% income tax and I ended up with... $62. 🤨

Thanks to everyone who came out to see us at The VFW in Ocean Shores. Such a nice group of people and a fun event. We'll definitely be returning to Ocean Shores in the future.
