Lemon went to her second protest yesterday where she met many other dogs against DOGE, and dogs who, like her, support due process, including for cats!

Perhaps Elon wants to know what I watched on Netflix this weekend, my grocery list, my dog's bathroom habits (she's a pooper!), that my cat got ahold of 1/3 of a stick of butter and ate the whole thing, along with the paper it was wrapped in and how we are now on puke alert for said paper...
Elon wants to know what we did last week. Let's tell him! Hr@opm.gov

I watched "The Search for Instagram's Worst Con Artist" and am watching "Apple Cider Vinegar". It occurs to me US public health is now one major "wellness" grift. Like Gerson Therapy, Belle Gibson, Mehmet Oz, and countless others claiming to have a miracle cure, it's going to get people killed.

We’ve got 3 special elections this year to hold the line in Congress, loads of local elections to bolster democracy in our communities, and decency on our side.
