Home during the day means either dim sum or Blue & White Carry-out. Not sure if fried chicken or beans are on offer this holiday so I steamed all of these XLB for me!

A Republican Supreme Court allowed a Republican President to block food aid so a Republican Congress could end health insurance aid.

If you're mainly angry at Democrats about this I don't know what to tell you.

I’m not a scientist but not mentioning Rosalind Franklin until 20 paragraphs in feels wrong.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Anticipating a cold snap next week, I’m making soup today! A recipe I’ve never tried before but love eating- Italian wedding soup! Little sausage and beef meatballs with tiny pasta and greens in chicken broth!

I know I’m not the first to combine these flavors but two bags of Vermont Maple Ginger and two bags of Country Peach Passion in a big ole teapot might be a new nighttime caffeine free tea ritual.

I might be imagining it but these November volunteer tomatoes seem especially sweet! Whenever I encountered a blossom end rot tomatoes from one of my containers I’d chuck it into the far end flower beds. No stakes, no fertilizer. Possible bumblebee and honeycomb varieties!

Trump is leaving families to starve but communities are stepping up. That he’s trying to interfere proves Trump really just wants kids and families to go hungry. I just introduced a bill to protect stores that offer discounts to SNAP recipients if they choose to.
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.
