Baseball fan, gardening, reader and wannabe traveler.
Let me be clear on one matter on my mind today.

If the Rangers trade Seager, I will become a Blue Jay fan for all of 2026. ⚾️

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

The only healthcare I will endorse for all Americans is the Cadillac Plan Congress/POTUS has.

Republicans keep talking like health is a moral achievement instead of a human reality. People get sick even when they do everything ‘right.’ That’s why we have healthcare in the first place.
Markwayne Mullin: "Reward people for being healthy. Think about this. Healthcare is the only industry that you're not rewarded for taking care of your responsibility. If you think about homeowners insurance, if you're within 500 feet of a fire hydrant, your insurance goes down."

Just when one thinks they’ve got DT cornered, he wiggles out of it somehow.

Just a bit ago he changed his tune and said R’s should vote to release E files.

Why do you suppose he did that?

My guess is the files have been altered to remove any mention of him.

i just read something about grief from C.S. Lewis and his book, “A Grief Observed”

basically, when someone you love dies, it isn’t just them that you miss, but the parts of yourself that person brought out of you that can never be brought out again.

i feel that with my dad.

Them: “I’m sick of subsidizing their groceries when mine cost so much”

SNAP does not drive up grocery prices.

That would be inflation, tariffs & corporate greed.

For every $1 spent on SNAP there’s a $1.50 going back into the economy.

While you’re blaming the poor, the rich are robbing everyone.

This is a reminder that it's entirely possible to have some positive memories of a relationship or person that was ultimately abusive & you want to leave in the past.

Positive memories or feelings are not "evidence" that "it wasn't that bad" or wasn't abuse.
