I mainly talk about USA politics —but I also sprinkle in my hobbies & timeline cleansers.

Well, this is an unexpected plot twist.
I regret to inform you that this is a real exchange in the Epstein emails that Congress released. Did Trump give Bill Clinton a blowjob? Or was it meant as a joke? 🤔

So…. Millions of SNAP applications? All at the same time? This would be difficult to mange under normal staffing conditions. Imagine what this will be like now that staffing has been drastically cut.
Brooke Rollins head of the USDA, says all SNAP beneficiaries are going to have to reapply due to fraud... this is code for a large portion of the current snap beneficiaries will not qualify again.

Trump is determined to starve people. No one deserves this treatment.

So many people are acting like complete lunatics right now and everyone seems completely unbothered.

After nearly a year of this, I suppose I should be used to it by now but I still find it unsettling. 🫣

In case people forget. You should be boycotting Starbucks. Tomorrow starts their strike. Going to Starbucks is crossing picketing lines.

Be a better person and don’t go to Starbucks ✌🏼 it’s not that hard

According to a recent Gallup poll, 2 in 5 young women said they would like to leave the US permanently.

This is what happens when your country shuns gender equality, women are refused proper medical care, children are being gunned down in schools, and pedophiles are running the government.

Don’t fall for all the oligarch “Black Friday sales” this year! Stop giving fascists your money just because it’s easy.

GET CREATIVE. Get offline and check out your local shops. Make something.
This Xmas - 🎄 🙏

If you’re blessed this week, please donate to your local food bank/pantry and leave some pet supplies too. Pets are family. Let’s help keep families together this winter.
People are having trouble feeding and caring for their pets. Surrenders at shelters are up. So sad that someone would have to give up a beloved pet for financial reasons. Help in your community or neighborhood. If you know of good nonprofits that are working on this issue, please link below.

I’m not a pessimist, but unless something very clever and unexpected happens, I don’t think they’re gonna release the Epstein files until they’ve scoured them to their satisfaction.

Let’s hope their cleaning skills are on par with the talent of Trump’s makeup artist.

In case you aren’t up to speed on this one, Prager U is some of the most egregious content ever created —and it’s aimed at your kids. It promotes itself as “educational material” but it’s actually a history whitewashing scheme. The Trump regime wants their material in schools.

Fuck Harper Collins.
Screw Prager U and apparently also Harper Collins.

This Veteran’s Day hits different.

I keep thinking about how the government wants to ignore those who served and rewrite their history. I’m relieved my grandfather doesn’t have to live through this betrayal, but I’m angry that they want to tarnish his memory.

If you’re a veteran:

There will be another 60 vote Friday* on the garbage shutdown deal. If we can convince just one Senator from the 52 republicans and 8 Dems that voted yes to flip, we could still stop this. Please jump on the phone today, call them, and share this widely.

*If all goes by the regular schedule

WATCH THIS 👇
There’s still time to call senators. Let me explain. Sorry not sorry about the cat. He’s also really upset about this deal.

When it comes to issues like healthcare, housing, or the cost of living, the average congressperson simply doesn’t have skin in the game.

In the end, 7 Democrats and 1 Independent voted to betray millions of people. Several come from presidential swing states. Two have announced they are retiring. Not a single one of them will be up for re-election in 2026.

This image has been floating around, claiming to be a list of the 8 Democrats who voted on 11/09/25 to end the government shutdown.

This list is NOT fully accurate.

To avoid spreading misinformation, I’ve taken the image down from my feed and I will be posting the correct list of names shortly.

By caving and accepting this garbage deal, Democrats assured that millions of Americans will lose their healthcare FOR NOTHING.

PEOPLE WILL DIE.

Just so we’re clear, there are no actual guarantees in this deal —just a bunch of promises from the party that makes grifting and lying their specialty.

Democrats FINALLY have some leverage, their voters couldn’t be more clear about what they want …and Chuck Schumer wants to cave because the “nice, truthful, Republicans” are gonna promise him something?

I genuinely can’t tell if this is sabotage or stupidity.
After the largest peaceful pro-democracy demonstrations in American history, and a blue wave election where voters clearly and loudly said FIGHT ALL OF THIS CHAOS, it is malpractice and disqualifying for an elected Democrat to suggest caving to Trump.

I'm looking in your direction, Chuck Schumer.

OPINION: Take his enablers to court.

Go after every single business and individual that helps Trump break the law. He may have immunity but they don’t. Remind everyone that working with Trump has legal consequences. It’s awfully hard to grift if no one wants to risk doing business with you.
Exchanges in Washington, D.C., and Virginia have stocked Trump-branded wine and cider, allowing his family’s business to earn revenue from sales on federal property.

It can be hard to accept assistance during tough times. We all hate the idea of taking something, knowing that we could never pay it back.

The truth is, you CAN give back. Smile. Give compliments. Be polite and considerate. Practice loving your neighbor. There is more than one way to save a life.

IDK about you, but I’m not gonna be swayed by Black Friday or Cyber Monday sales this year. I don’t care how good the deals are. I’m not giving fascists a single penny!

Animal surrenders have been spiking at local shelters as families struggle to feed their beloved pets. Rather than see them starve, they’ve been saying good-bye. 😢

This month, if you’re able, please bring pet supplies to your local food pantry. Let’s make sure no one goes hungry.
