glad to be born at a time when i got to see what life was like before the internet and will be dead before AI completely destroys humanity

OMG, the price of hamburger is $6.68 for extra lean now. That is insane. Our local butcher has a sale $4.50 a lb as they have too much from processing local farmers cows in fall. All the scraps make burger. I just bought 40lbs of grass fed burger at that price. Freezer bursting at the seams now.

Oh crap! Why did I put on perfume to leave the house? It's fall, which means mean yellow jackets and I do NOT want to attract them.

Oh yes, they will say natural gas demand is skyrocketing and then raise the hell out of rates. I suspect our winter heating bills will double this winter.

Time to fight back.

Jared Kushner is going to the Middle East to negotiate a deal on behalf of the U.S. government days after Kushner announced a $55 billion deal between his private equity fund and the Saudi government One of the most brazen conflicts in history.

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

This fire is near me and has been burning all summer long. It's massive and I guess they just have 19 people fighting this 20k acre fire in the Olympic National Forest to watch it burn out and exhaust itself. This is so heartbreaking to me.

Mamdani was 9 years old on 9/11. This is just gutter racism from Debra Messing.

“There’s a baby!” Guns drawn. Windows smashed. With a 1 month old in the car. (They did this as he was coming home from an immigration court appointment— which is illegal in Colorado: coloradosun.com/2025/10/01/i...)

Next year, a lot of folks are going to see their premiums go up $1,000 or more per month because of a Republican policy. If you start having to pay $1,000 extra every month, what will you stop being able to afford? This is what Democrats are fighting to stop.

Marc Elias lays it all out. There are no "Good Republicans" www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDs3...

We are just 4 months away from losing our measles elimination status. 💔 apple.news/ApxEb3KR0Rku...

I Have To Agree! You?😊💙 Same guy who declared bankruptcy 6 times shut down the U.S. government 4 times in 5 years of being President. They wanted him to run the government like his businesses and that’s exactly what he’s doing.

I just wanted to put this here for anyone that might want it, in case you run into a "Christian" that twist the bible to put women down and control women, share it with them, like the Christian Nationalists taking over this country. Women, this is for you! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWi5...

A lot of tech bros who were upset about pronouns want to confer them on their computers now that they’re dating

Fascism tells you how to speak, what to think under force. If you think it's bad now, they are just getting started.

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

This is what Trumpism has wrought.

The 100 Mile Border Enforcement Zone…I have a feeling w/o disclosure or LEGAL ICE with the directive of HHS is implementing this in many of these raids. Questions need to be asked!

I keep seeing people posting about "well, that's illegal" and do this but everyone seems to forget laws mean nothing if there is nobody to enforce them and the orders are coming from the top down and the lawmakers are complacent. This is what fascism looks like. We are already there.

Surreal moment for America. Needless to say, if the normal police ever pulled something like this — pulling every single person out of an apartment building and handcuffing them to run warrant checks — they would be sued into oblivion. Yet ICE is going to get away with it entirely.

Let me be clear: this will impact ALL of us. It’s bigger than just Medicaid & Medicare. We will all pay the price.

F you Hegseth!

The awesome video team at the New York Times helped me make this video about the shutdown and Obamacare premiums.

Probably just a coincidence.

You don’t have to do layoffs. And he specifically says that they are going to permanently terminate civil servants who are registered Democrats.

Ronald Reagan–appointed U.S. District Judge William Young: “ICE goes masked for a single reason — to terrorize Americans into quiescence… To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed, masked secret police.”

I’m still processing what happened this morning. Is it now the administration’s position that the U.S. military does not observe or adhere to the laws of war?

Here is what gets under my skin, where all these experts saying you have to save for retirement when people can’t even afford their monthly rent. The solution? Move to fly over states where your income goes down and to areas that may be in conflict with your inner peace. 🤦‍♀️

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

This is a slippery slope because it will backfire. Once you give license to traumatize one group of people you open the door to traumatize all of the people.

My house has turned into Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds since it started raining. All sorts of thumping on my house and I figured out it is flocks of migrant birds pecking at the gutters for water and bugs. We've been suffering red flag warnings with how dry it's been, not they're going for the water.

I’ll just park this right here. apple.news/Ah1t3o20-RnO...

I think this says it all regarding the death of certain individuals. I’m sure the point will be lost on those turning a horrible person into a martyr.

After picking a bunch of squash to store for winter I made a 5 minute detour and picked this. I have a bunch of stuff that’ll need canning for winter not in this picture. My pressure canner will be busy this week.

“..Six months after the president’s ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs .., U.S. soybean farmers are learning that China — long the predominant market for their product — doesn’t need them anymore.” @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

I just put flannel sheets on my bed and I swear I can hear my mom watching a Christmas movie out in the living room and I'm not ready for this yet. I'm so behind with stuff that needs to be done for fall. That month mom was in hospital/nursing home really put me behind.

And the garden provided the proper ingredients to make Ukrainian borscht. 🍜🍽️

A friend is tearing down an old barn for the wood, and found some old timers stash 🤣

FYI, I just read an article that cocaine is popular again like in the 1980s.

I just saw an influencer on TikTok say that they refuse to give their child Tylenol, and instead they only give them acetaminophen so I’m just logging off for the day

It’s that time of year again. Kimchi noodles in hot earthenware bowls. 🍜🍽️

The irony is that Trumpworld is obsessed with energy.

Poor nepo baby!

I have the post vaccine blues today. It's not kicking my butt as hard as other years but we shall see as the day wears on. This year I got moderna instead of pfizer.
