Grandma and disabled people. Are we great yet?
Maybe Republicans don't want to "push granny off the cliff." But they do want to push granny's caregiver off the cliff. lnk.thebulwark.com/4afElyp

That's lovely, but how is the tea?

Between the highly deregulated new nuclear power plants and every other fucking thing on the planet happening right now, there is so much more to care about than that guy. I think I should start training to be in the Vuvalini.

I'm pretty sure this is how Mad Max: The Prequel starts.

Mine was an angel. It can totally depend, like with any cat, I think. But they are high energy for sure!

Yes! That's a Bengal. I had one for 10 years. They're fantastic cats. Here's Saphron.

Turns out the woman in question is Melania and her shitty "docuganda" film. I hadn't connected the release of that thing with the date of his bad family juju.
I've spoken a little about this rather momentous thing happening to the Trumpsterfire around February 1. One strong interpretation is the death of a family member, either a child or a woman. I know many would love for it to be him, but I'm not certain that's it. ♏🧵

So many Melania movie signs defaced here in L.A. Saw one today that was spray painted to say

The Diplomat. This TV show doesn't explain anything to the viewer. It drops you into the middle of complex situations and dialogue that's five steps ahead of you. I have to mentally jog to keep up. And it's fucking BRILLIANT.

Second screen-friendly my ass.

So, what is it? It's a fairly major transition. His emotional "nadir," literally and figuratively. I mean, all the other democratic nations hate us now. Small-minded people put him in office, and smaller shall we shrink. It won't save us. But we might enjoy a morsel of schadenfreude. ⚔️

Scorpio is intense. It's the secret-keeper of the zodiac. Family secrets roll right off this fucker, so I don't think that's what it's about. Same with how the progressed moon in Scorpio is considered "The Dark Night of the Soul." It's hard to have a one of those if you have no soul.

It's his progressed Moon in Scorpio entering the 4th house. He'll be forced to withdraw from the outer world into family life. The 4th is sometimes referred to as "the end of the matter" and "the grave," but usually it's about family, home, and roots. Maybe his "House."

He's also a huge liar. Virtual care (aka telemedicine) is very popular right now. Everyone is taking advantage of it because it's cheaper and more convenient. For him to talk this way about healthcare just shows he's ignorant and/or that he is a pathological liar.

And here's her Insta www.instagram.com/fryingsolo/ where you can check out her race photos. I've run into her in person a couple of times now, and I can vouch for her cool confidence, kindness, good energy. Tear up the track in 2026, Therese!

This is Therese Lahlouh, a race car driver I met last year. When she told me what she does, I had to check out her Insta. It did not disappoint.
