One good thing today: look at that sky! Talk about blue. #onegoodthing

SNAP and WIC are literal lifelines. Without them people won’t have food. People will go hungry. While Trump feasts on our tax dollars. E

Does anyone still actually believe that he’s building a ballroom?

Updating my LEGO White House

One good thing today: I’m mid flare up for my chronic illness and extremely exhausted. So today I let myself rest. A lot. And did not fill my head with negative talk about it. I just rested. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll get some energy back. #onegoodthing

If there even are ejections, will they be free and fair?

Had an eye doctor appointment this morning and it wiped me out for the rest of the day. Aah the joys of chronic illness.

The truth is, you’ll never really know how far your kindness travels. Something you said in passing might still be echoing in someone’s mind. A small act that felt routine to you might have meant everything to them. Don’t underestimate the ways you may have made a difference in someone’s life.

Halting SNAP benefits means people won’t have food. People may literally starve. But private planes, kidnap thugs, and White House demolition have plenty of funding. Disgusting. Horrifying. I’m sickened by how they’re using my tax dollars

One good thing today: made a pan of roasted potatoes and they came out great and my house smells so good. #onegoodthing

Sad angry disgusted disappointed sickened. How can they let this happen?

While we spectate on The East Wing being torn down, it isn’t just another hallway, it’s where Eleanor Roosevelt built the modern Office of the First Lady, where WWII bunkers were hidden, and where the public enters the People’s House. Erasing it is rewriting history.

OMG! In Comey's motion to dismiss for vindictive prosecution, he points to others who have lied to Congress that were NOT prosecuted. Number one is JEFF SESSIONS when he said "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two, but I did not have contact with the Russians." 1/

You don’t do major renovations in a house that’s not yours. Especially if you’re planning to move out.

Watch my supercut of things Mike Johnson doesn’t know. You can see the whole show here: www.youtube.com/live/Ams4OLn...

If you do your own bookkeeping we still have to review everything, verify accuracy, and make necessary adjustments so your tax return is correct. That often takes longer and costs more than if we managed it in the first place. #smallbusiness #taxes

Please please please don’t follow tax advice from social media influencers. I promise it won’t save you money. It may even cost you a lot more than you expect. If you want tax saving strategies please work with a professional. #taxes #taxbs

One good thing today: had some time to relax and paint. I try to practice as much as I can to improve skills. But honestly the process is so calming and fun the results barely matter. #watercolor #onegoodthing

This can’t be said often enough: Trump is selling out his most loyal voting block while bailing out somebody else’s. 📍Keep an eye on this: Trump’s intentionally sabotaging U.S. farmers. His billionaire buddies will benefit by acquiring their land on the cheap.

One good thing today: everyone coming together with peace and kindness to stand up for our rights and our country. Couldn’t be prouder today. #onegoodthing

No Kings!!! Seattle Ballard

One good thing today: had a happily surprisingly calm pleasant day. Walked with a friend. Saw my kid. Got a treat. Started a new book I unexpectedly love. All around nice day. Plus adorable pollinators #onegoodthing

This saucy squirrel made my dog profoundly pissed off

I’m displeased that I had to turn on the heat. In October. But the weather took a swan dive. Still heat on in October just feels wrong. And I know how lucky I am to even have this option.

One good thing today: had time to make a little buddy. Crocheting is super calming. Plus you end up with a squishy cute stress ball. 🏀 #onegoodthing

One good thing today: I stood up for myself in an awkward and negative situation. Sometimes anxiety prevents me from doing that. But today I managed it and it felt good. And my cat offered up emotional support after which made it even better. #onegoodthing

Here's how differently-abled and disabled folks can join No Kings 2: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

Things that are really serious? Every time I think I can’t be more disgusted they prove me wrong

Wtaf?! A privately funded military?

Baltimore stands up

One good thing today: started cooking overnight beef stew and it smells so good in my house. #onegoodthing

If you see any post online saying that the #IRS is sending you inflation/stimulus payments, that is absolutely untrue. We are shutdown. There will be no checks coming from the IRS. #skytax #scamalert

Just filed my last 2024 tax returns!!! #taxes #taxbs

Just got my utility bill (BGE). My usage is less than last month but my bill is quite a bit more. Rate increases have kicked in. So another cost hike to try to work into the budget. On their side no improved services but their CEO’s pay will soar.

One good thing today: had a really good therapy session and it changed the course of my day. Plus a picture of my weird cat trying to get an empty ziploc bag out of the drawer #onegoodthing

Reminder! Extended tax returns are due on Wednesday. Even in the shutdown. You still have to file on time to avoid getting hit with penalties.

Today, House Republicans will take their 70th day off with pay in the last 82 days.

One good thing today: made butternut squash soup and it came out super good. Plus I hung out with my kid. So really 2 good things. #onegoodthing

A new report reveals that an upcoming Supreme Court case could eliminate: ❌ 27 blue congressional districts ❌ 30% of Congressional Black Caucus seats ❌ 11% of Hispanic Caucus seats And the effects could ripple for over a generation.

One good thing today: it was really nice out and I went for a restorative walk in the sunshine. A good break from all of the awful #onegoodthing

You know the world is beyond f’ed up when I agree with MTG on literally anything.

Just found out my ACÁ premiums are expected to increase by 53% next year. And that’s lucky compared to a lot of other people. Republicans need to fix this right f’ing now

Yes because that’s how science works. You “make the proof.”

Just finished reading Our Infinite Fates by Laura Steven and I really loved it.

One good thing today: sleeping dog. Letting him lie.

Confelicity is my new favorite word. Vicarious happiness. Enjoying someone else’s happiness. Great word.

One good thing today: met a deadline that was hanging over me. Glad it’s done. Time to crash. #onegoodthing

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.
