nice thing about this time of year, some good views of dusk and sunsets on the drive home (yes I snapped this pic at a stoplight)

fromWaPo which always wants ppl to sign in-screenshots below- ICE carrying guns, chased a Preschool teacher into a school with kids

Thank you North Carolina & Dem governor Josh Stein for continuing wastewater monitoring for illnesses! Covid’s way down, & I avoided the recent wave; forced spouse + elderly parents to eat outside twice at restaurants so they were ok too. I didn’t miss work and they avoided lengthy costly illnesses

Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.” Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

wish me luck at CVS tomorrow! just gonna waltz in with my Minute Clinic covid shot appt and hope for the best! F-you, RFK Jr.

I know all of us are overwhelmed with the crazy and evil- this one is very clear and simple and wicked.

I find this very interesting. I think the Russia relationship was about money-maybe he owed a lot to Russian banks- and recently he’s grifted his way out of that reliance. Trump lashes out at Putin after Russia’s massive drone-and-missile attack on Ukraine - NBC News

not sure why I am so deeply irritated by CVS cold calling me “we need to get you in for some vaccinations”- um no, you’re not my doctor, and youre not “getting me” anywhere…especially not after 2 phone calls in a row with no message, so I felt I needed to return this call, from work…

Trump sits in his gold plated office without caring that his trade war means higher prices for families. That’s why I’m running for Governor: to stand up to Trump and make life better for Californians.

totally silly old skit but it makes me laugh: www.cinemablend.com/television/2...

good luck to them! This woman was kidnapped off the street by ice

DOW rocketing down again. James Carville suggests we also express anger at personal tangible effects of trump/GOP, and this is certainly one. I’m near retirement and I worked and saved my whole life. Some giant unforced errors hurting the economy. Not cool.

another Mary Oliver- happy easter!

I guess we’re seeing how he managed to bankrupt those 3 casinos. Stable genius, my ass. And where is Tufts grad student Rumeysa Ozturk?

We need to hear more about this.

the small pond behind the apartment- spring is coming! for a couple of days we had an otter, passing through. We have kingfishers! (thank you Merlin bird app)

great article- easy to read and has the historical facts to back it up, I learned a lot. www.theguardian.com/global/2025/...

sorry for the ick Hegseth pic but the Hillary Clinton op-ed is good! www.nytimes.com/2025/03/28/o...

once again- having actual first amendment rights and safety to not be sent to a prison in another country, randomly, because you have a tattoo, is the priority- also food bank access and social security, and a military safe from public chat disclosures. but still: How futures are moving now - CNBC

the grossness of those idiots texting about our military operation solely in terms of how it will trump look, totally worried about “optics” with absolutely no regard for safety of our military, by using a nonsecure chat.

👊🇺🇸🔥 ? indeed - idiot magas burning our country down.

Uh oh the Trump administration accidentally added us to their group chat

bless you if you filter/process anything that needs input from the people that report to you. my manager is sending everything straight to me to deal with, dude why are you even there -except to hoard the info I actually need?

Harming is our economy may not be the worst- sending random ppl to camps in El Salvador prob takes the cake, if not stopping USAID HIV & food aid- but this joker is intentionally taking it all down. He hates America so much! Is he jealous of successful businesses??? www.nytimes.com/2025/03/19/b...

so much winning here!

amazing analysis here. makes sense.

yes- there’s a lot more to life than 401k. still- in the US system, a 401k is pretty important for a lot of people’s financial security after they retire. Thanks for your unprovoked self-inflicted losses, DJT 🤪. Stock Market Today: Stocks tumble as trade war risk grips global markets - TheStreet

Apologies for the gross picture but this is an interesting (gift article) take on DT- essentially taking revenge on the US for not voting for him in 2020. Maybe! www.nytimes.com/2025/03/05/o...

DT fans can enjoy big Medicaid cuts, along with tax cuts for the rich and an incredible increase in the deficit. DT doubles down on efforts to bankrupt America, while cutting benefits so many family and neighbors use. Gift article from nyt- www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

This is for @gtconway.bsky.social Five things I did last week. 1. Took too much ketamine 2. Danced onstage with a chainsaw 3. Ignored my new baby momma 4. Laughed at my own jokes. 5. Neglected all of my children except for the one I use as a human shield.

A gorgeous Mickalene Thomas painting, “The Three Graces”, at my local art museum. I always look for this when I visit! Love the title, composition and color.
