And We Give France 🇫🇷 Permission

Ladies and Gentlemen your Buffalo Sabres. #sabres

Exciting game!!!!

Hubs just ran up from the basement, through the dining room, kitchen and down the hall fully nude. He was outside working and found a bunch of ticks so stripped outside. #gardening #ticks #nude

The Senate and Congress Must be turned Blue in November or by June 1st 2027 the United States will be in a recession. My Opinion VOTE BLUE

More wee hockey players. #hockey www.youtube.com/shorts/RZbvi...

A whooping cough outbreak in an elementary school down the road. Meanwhile I finally got around to reading Candle In the Dark and only a few pages in, you get to its eerily prescient passage. Sigh.

Buffalo scores!!!!! #hockey #sabres #StanleyCupPlayoffs

0630 - 1630 meetings/training w/ no breaks. Fielding Teams requests throughout. #STRESSED! Since I've been home, have: -identified the dirt on the sitting room floor for hubs -been asked to remove viruses from his computer -called Burpee to fix order -fixed dinner 'cause he wanted to grill

First rose of the year. This is my favorite heirloom climber, zephirine drouhin. Best smelling rose ever. #rose #flower #gardening

Isn’t that the truth.

My favorite baseball match-up! #yankees #sox #baseball

Virginians: Today's the last day to vote on an important redistricting measure. I hope you'll vote YES—for Virginia, and for the entire country. You have a chance to help level the playing field as Republicans seek an unfair advantage in Congress. Please take it. Get more info: IWillVote.com/VA

I just voted for the Virginia redistricting referendum. Really great turnout at my precinct for a special election. Given all of the “no” signs in the area, though, I’m worried that it won’t pass. #vote #voting

Virginia! Bring a friend to to the polls tomorrow, April 21, 6am-7pm. Vote YES to stop gerrymandering and protect Virginia’s elections. Same-day registration means you can register AND vote in one trip. Spread the word! #VoteYesVirginia

I started my Monday by dropping my keys in the large city-provided trash bin. Had to empty and dump over to get them out and, coincidentally, hubs had filled it with a bunch of dirty bags from lawn cleanup. #monday

Virginia this is the last week to Early Vote. The referendum must pass, this administration needs to be stopped. This Vote is the first step. VOTE YES on the REFERENDUM

Excellent article by @emilymullin.bsky.social about the continued destruction of the U.S. vaccine program by RFK Jr. He may have been ordered to shut his mouth about vaccines, but he’s left malware running in the background that is causing chaos and confusion.

Temporary CDC “Director” Jay Bhattacharya is a non-practicing MD, economist, and whiny little shitbird with a persecution complex. He has ZERO education, training or experience in epidemiological study design and has no business at deciding what methodology should be used to evaluate vaccines.

Two parents sued a West Virginia school district for not allowing a religious vaccine exemption for their child. A district court granted them an injunction that was just overturned by the Fourth Circuit. Another victory for public health. @doritreiss.bsky.social thanks for the heads up.

Finished filing our taxes this morning. We paid more than trump and musk by orders of magnitude only for our "government" to cut services for the neediest while lining their pockets and attacking sovereign nations to hide the "president's" pedophilia. Really fucking sad. #taxes

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something. For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

Kamala Harris warned everyone. Hillary Clinton warned everyone. Both were ignored and now the entire world is in imminent danger. I’ll never regret voting for them.

What if the United States had a Congress?

He needs to be gone. Impeached. Convicted and jailed. Removed before he drops a nuke. This is the craziest thing I’ve ever seen a president say

I wrote him this morning as well. Like you, I expect no response and no action against trump and his current madness.

My natural writing style includes using the Oxford comma and em dashes, both supposedly signs that something is written by AI. I've been writing this way for more than 50 years, I don't use AI but I'm increasingly conscious of how others may perceive something that I've written. #AI #writing

Stuarts Draft neighbors, still deciding your vote for April 21st? Or maybe you need a yard sign to share your support with family and friends. Come out to the Stuarts Draft Library on Wednesday, April 8th, between 4 and 6 pm to learn more about why we're voting YES to say no to Trump!

I think Jazz Chisholm is my favorite player on the Yankees roster at the moment. He plays hard and always seems like he's just having the best time of his life. #Yankees www.youtube.com/shorts/Z41LJ...

It's early in the season and this won't last but nice to see. Yanks off to a good start.

One of my favorite pieces. #music www.youtube.com/shorts/m9MRu...

It was a gorgeous drive to work. Started in the mostly dark with a huge moon, lighter by the time I got to work with heavy mist filling the low spots in fields. Wish I could have taken some pictures. #morning

The transmission chain of the meningitis outbreak at the University of Kent (UK) appears to have been broken. No new cases seem to have been reported since March 23rd, with a total of 21 confirmed cases and two deaths. When a government lets public health work, outbreaks can be halted.

I love this woman! www.youtube.com/shorts/WGHrs...

I have never wavered in my position that there can be no compromise with RFK Jr. He is a dangerous fraud who has caused incalculable damage to public health. It’s extremely disappointing that the President of the American Medical Association was doing a photo op with RFK Jr. this morning.

The Virginia referendum early voting continues this week. This referendum is the first step to reclaim in Congress for Democrats.

The allegory is so loud it's giving me a headache.

I posted this more than a year ago. Thought my new word was "Bullous pemphigoid"but just saw a daily bunny post and I'm right back to "lagomorph". This is my longest "word worm ever". #words
