At the sanctuary where I work we have volunteers who feed animals and clean, but others who work on the website, do grant writing, donate artwork, financial consultation, etc. all kind of things that don't require physical presence! There are many kinds of volunteers!
Huh. I can't volunteer in person for so many reasons, but if they need something digital, maybe...

Denmark lost more troops per capita in the post 9/11 war on Afghanistan. Saying they “are not a good ally” because they won’t surrender their territories to the US is lunacy. We are betraying our allies to satisfy the whims of a would-be Emperor for whom the US is not enough.
They’re again advocating against Denmark when it comes to Greenland

My dog and two cats love to throw up on the floor and they represent 60% of the household. As a leader I can't just ignore public opinion so I also throw up on the floor sometimes to stay popular

An absolutely endless supply of news media segments asking Trump supporters their feelings about absofucking everything during the election and exactly none about how they feel about Epstein or The Kennedy Center or the ballroom or killing people holding onto a boat.

“the president seems to be using the doj to hide his years of involvement with the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history” feels like a story worth reporting on

Perhaps the guy who doubled his net worth by raking in billions via crypto dinners could put up some of his own cash instead of scamming your grandparents out of $2,500 during the holidays.

Stephen Miller is a horrible racist in the sense that he is actually not that good at being racist.
Dean Martin, born Dino Paul Crocetti, son of Italian immigrant Gaetano Crocetti

Frank Sinatra, son of Italian immigrants Antonino Sinatra and Natalina Garavanta

Merry Christmas to everyone except Stephen Miller and his enablers and handlers

we are living thorough 10 years of moral collapse. it’s happening everywhere but is concentrated in the US. we have given up on even trying to argue that there must be more to life, both individually and collectively, than bare materialism and power. we must rededicate ourselves to meaningful life.

Volunteering at the kid’s preschool. Rosie starts heckling Caleb about the fact he’s wearing a skirt. Can you believe it everyone a skirt! Hahaha a skirt! Etc etc

He calmly lifts up his shirt to show and casually says “well really it’s a dress, Rosie.”
What's an insult you'll never forget?

Neither the New York Times nor the Washington Post published stories about Trump writing 200 unhinged posts on Christmas Day
You almost have to feel bad for an ugly old man with no family or friends to keep him company on Christmas Day that he makes 200 crazy posts ranting about everything under the sun.

Almost.

Believe it or not this is also true for picture books. My books may be spare but I guarantee I can carry on about my talking mushrooms and birds wearing party hats for basically ever.

This Christmas Eve, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.
