This was a fellow human put in harm’s way for no good reason. Her death is a tragedy. May it strengthen our resolve to defy this depraved and lawless regime.
Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.

She didn't want to deploy to D.C.

"She hated it. She cried about it."

But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.

May she rest in peace.

The slain soldier’s former boyfriend recalled her empathy and generosity. “She doesn’t even have to know you and she’ll do anything for you,” he said.

I am less offended at the money to Argentina to bail out their terrible, corrupt government than by the fact that there’s no public argument about sending money to Argentina, the pros and cons of it, and what exactly it’s supposed to do for US interests. Congress exists for a goddamn reason!

I just woke up from a dream that I forgot my son’s wedding and didn’t make it. I’m so freaked out- I don’t know if I’ll be able to go back to sleep. The crazy part is that is he’s not even engaged…yet.

I believe this truly was where everything went downhill for my Dad.
if your usually lucid, elder loved one suddenly becomes confused and agitated overnight for seemingly no reason, I’m here to tell you that like 9 times out of 10, it’s a UTI. that shit hits different when you get old

This sums it up nicely…
Ossoff: He’s so consumed by his efforts to secure revenge, crush his enemies, and conquer Greenland that he’s doing nothing for the people who elected him. His entire domestic agenda is tax breaks for the wealthy, rounding up immigrants, revenge, and centralizing as much power as he can..

This is SO SO BAD.

Are you the parent of a kid with an IEP or a 504 Plan?

You better be on the phone to your rep and Senators RIGHT NOW.
Just got off the phone with Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.), who said Elon Musk's DOGE team is "actively dismantling" federal Department of Education programs today.

"They are in the building, on the 6th floor, canceling grants and contracts."

I just passed Dave Ramsey’s sprawling buildings with all the lights on. How can someone preach how to save money when they leave all their lights on?

The things my husband and I can consistently disagree about-

1. Which way to go somewhere
2. Landscaping
3. Where to hang Christmas lights

Or maybe it’s just me and my expectations?!

My college football ramblings-
I’m all for the underdogs unless it’s UofL. So glad they ended the losing streak against UK - which should have ended last year but we won’t go there.
