Re: #SNAP loss - everyone seems to focus on families with kids, and rightly so, but people, please check on your #elderly neighbors. They may not be as connected or aware, they might not drive, and the need will be significant. Please make sure they have access to #food as best you can.

Fund SNAP. Reverse the Medicaid cuts. Restore USAID. (image cia @peppapaxpippa.bsky.social)

Congratulations to the Toronto Blue Jays on a magnificent season. It is a shame either team had to lose. And this was a gut punch. 💔💔 Classy players, fanbase, and truly one of the finest cities in the world. Future is bright with Yeasavage, Barger, and Vladdy. Now go re-sign Bo.

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

This means nothing. Useless. Empty words, zero action. Boycott his events. Refuse to cover his photo ops and propaganda signings. He’s addicted to coverage and hates being ignored. Until you band together and do something, these statements are utterly pointless & pathetic.
