After talking to some vets tonight; the VA suicide crisis line is no longer a safe line. It takes a lot for me to say that, but it is simply not. It is currently causing more harm than good.

Honestly, people who can work are privileged. I would love it if I could work enough to support myself and not deal with people's condemnation!

Trump claims that food stamps "puts the country in jeopardy. People that are able-bodied can do a job, they leave their job because they figure they can pick this up, it's easier."

On January 1, 2026, convicted sex trafficker and sexual abuser Ghislaine Maxwell will have better healthcare and food benefits than EIGHTY MILLION Americans.

Let that sink in.

Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior today for no reason whatsoever. She just shared excerpts of her articles, which were as always incisive and not offensive at all. Hey @pfrazee.com this is super not OK. I know her- we've interacted a fair bit via chats and her work is essential.

Hi everyone. I'm requesting help with food, bills and expenses. I am a SSDI and SNAP recipient with physical and mental health disabilities living in shared housing for women with trauma histories and am just trying to survive. In just the last year I lived through a traumatic roommate situation, the LA fires, and ICE being in LA. I have been diagnosed with PTSD, ADHD, a thyroid condition, and may have a heart condition.

Adorable ancient Egyptian blue faience hippos made by artisans some 4,000 years ago!

📷 by me

#Archaeology
My photo collage shows four hippo statuettes made of Egytian blue faience, a ceramic material made of ground quartz. Their bright-blue shiny bodies are decorated in black with depictions of Nile river plants such as water weed and lotus flowers. This decoration depicts their marsh habitat as well as having various layers of symbolism associated with regeneration. For example lotus flowers open in the morning and close at night, symbolising rebirth. Blue faience hippos have been found in Middle Kingdom tombs of high ranking officials. It’s thought they were placed in the tombs to aid the rebirth of the deceased. Hippo top left - Walking hippo shown in profile facing right. Height 11.5 cm, Length 21 cm. Egyptian Museum, Cairo. Top right - Roaring hippo (looks like the hippo is smiling), seated, with head at left and turned inwards to front. Height 7.5 cm, length 12.5 cm. Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen. Bottom left - Standing hippo in profile facing right. This hippo is part of the Met Museum’s collections and is popularly known as ‘William’. Height 11.2 cm, Length 20 cm Bottom Right - Reclining hippo with head on the right, facing front, and tilted down. Egyptian Museum, Cairo

Please help if you can. While this is intended as more than food support, I will say I had been so relieved Friday, that I would have food for most of the month & be able to take a side dish, a small cake, and some sodas to my family's Thanksgiving, if Trump takes what CA sent out, I don't know. 💕💸
