The CDC is lying. They're lying about so many things that it's not safe to assume ANYTHING the CDC "says" (prints, releases, whatever) is factually correct *or* true.
Our tax dollars are continuing to be stolen and pocketed. These shitheads are pulling down salaries - OUR DIMES - and lying to us.

It’s hard to believe but the Auto Club family— mama Porsche & her now 7-month old kittens Ferrari, Mercedes, and Bentley— have had no applications. Not one for any of them. They’ve been growing up together in foster care, shy at first & needing a quiet home. Elkton, MD Apply crits4cats.petfinder.com

This is an accidentally honest answer. What she's saying in code is:
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."
Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?
LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president

I am unsurprised that @buzzgrambo.bsky.social is a Navy veteran. Annoying the shit out of people is a long standing enlisted Navy tradition and we get real good at it. Fair winds, Chief, and I hope you manage to get a nap in.
I love him. “The first time I caught up to [ICE], I could tell that they already knew who I was. They had seen me before, so they thought they were just going to speed away. I was like, ‘Ha ha, bitches, I got a new scooter!’”

Today is Trans Day of Remembrance.
This is not a thing that should exist.
Nobody should die for being who they are. They should all be alive and happy.
But sadly, that isn't the world we live in right now.
So until it is, we remember. We mourn. We say their names.
And we fight.
