The sign I designed on Canva arrived yesterday. I’m impressed with how pretty it turned out. One huge flaw: I thought it was metal, having chosen the metal sign category in the designing process, or so I thought 🫤 So, not weatherproof. Wondering if I should laminate it or something?? Argh.

This is confusing and not at all confusing at the same time. #trump #mamdani

Gearing up for another day of collecting signatures for Idaho’s Reproductive Freedom. It’s been a slow signature week and I’m hopeful today will make up for it. If you haven’t signed the initiative yet, I have tons of time to come to you this afternoon between events in CdA. #idpol backtoidaho.com

Great thread. I learned some things.

Breaking: The House voted unanimously, 426-0, to strip a provision in the funding bill that allowed senators to sue the government for $500K if their phone data was searched without their knowledge. The provision was designed for GOP senators to sue over the Jack Smith investigation.

“Idaho Department of Lands officials previously told the Sun there is interest in the property from prospective buyers, who they declined to identify.” If you want billionaires to own your public lands, turning them over to the state of Idaho is the way to go. They’ll sell them off for profit.

Like clockwork.

Christian Nationalist, Doug Wilson, confirms that children who don’t accept and follow their parent’s religious beliefs should be turned over to the State for capital punishment (be put to death). This fanaticism is real:

This feels like a very big deal in the bubble pop conversation

Sometimes I miss the era of the internet that was Hyperbole and a Half, Toothpaste for Dinner, The Oatmeal, and Olde Twitter.

I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served. F that!

This is me at 15. I’m a child. I’m a CHILD.

Husb & I have officially switched to Deezer from Spotify because of the ICE ads. We needed to dump Spotify anyway. www.huffpost.com/entry/spotif...

Thank you everybody! We’ve been backing several efforts to halt data center developments in different communities, and it turns out you’re making a huge impact. A new analysis shows that, in just a three-month period earlier this year, the

What do we make of the reference to Trump “blowing Bubba”?

So dark. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

Shout out to everyone completely demoralized about the state of the world who still manages to get out of bed each morning. And shout out to you, too if you’re still in bed. This shit is hard. Talk to your friends and neighbors. They’re going though it too, which is both terrifying and comforting.

Heather Cox Richardson’s breakdown of this week’s events was comforting & rejuvenating to me. Not a defense of the Dems, but gave perspective on where we are with the full picture. Helped me. It’s more hopeful that I thought. www.youtube.com/live/ICXBZ1X...

Economic blackout. A lot of places are starting their Black Friday deals now. I think they are hoping to work around this. So we’re skipping shopping with them from here out.

You know who wouldn’t have caved today?

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Having a lot of trouble with my rage & sadness at the democrats tonight. How am I supposed to encourage my group to support them? But then, how are we supposed to fight this tyranny without them? I watched all of you, beautiful ppl, step up for your neighbors. To make sure they didn’t starve. And

Maybe I need to stop sending work emails. I’m having a “can’t think of anything nice to say” day.

Speaker Johnson has literally said he's "not promising anyone anything." For once, I believe him.

Thank you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social for vowing to stay in the arena and fight.

fresh off caving, Sen. Jeanne Shaheen is going on Fox & Friends

I’m so fucking tired of this. I’m having a really hard time not feeling hopeless. The Democratic Party is turning out to be our enemy at every turn.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

Honest question, how can we make this happen?

Steve Berch is brave exactly what we need.

I don't know if this will help anyone, but pediatrician and OBGYN offices frequently have tons of samples of baby formula and will often give them away if you need it. Always worth a shot.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov - you better not cave with a *promise* from repubs. We (families of federal employees) did not go through all of this for you to trust the lyingest liars. The credits are extended or NO DICE.

Let the people say Amen. No room or tolerance for cowards. Get it straight, Dems or suffer.

Oh. God. We are flying next week.

Mamdani is going to implement ShamWow law. He’s going to make you absorbent like a sponge or chamois.

Saw-whet Owl #birds #🪶

We went Saw-whet Owl banding with @ibo-at-boisestate.bsky.social. It was really cool to see the tiny lil owl, but I had a harder time with it being handled than I expected. But that’s a me thing. I’m glad they’re there doing this important work.

I know the James Webb is out there taking incredible photos of the universe, but I’ll always be a Hubble girl.

This post and comments are why I like it here. 🌸

Almost all of these slots are filled. Boise, you warm my heart. 🥹

Our indoor tv antenna is only doing okay. Who’s had good luck with getting good service? What do we need - an outdoor antenna? We’re in Boise. We are thinking of dumping paid streaming & doing old fash tv, library, & DVDs.

They’re suing for permission to starve our most vulnerable citizens. Disgusting. Get out there and help where you can. Donate non perishable (not expired or close to it) food and/or grocery gift cards to your local food bank OR tap into your community to find people in need. Ex: Senior Centers.

We hold the line, Idaho left flank. (Gift article) www.nytimes.com/2025/11/07/u...

Another way Boise folks can help those affected by the loss of SNAP benefits - Interfaith Sanctuary has guests at their homeless shelter needing breakfasts and lunches. I had a Costco order delivered. Super easy. www.signupgenius.com/go/4090E4FA5...

Thank goodness. Enough of staying way past you’re welcome and refusing to let the new generation lead and weakening any moral stance Democrats might have with blatant insider trading.
