btw one of the Muslim Churches (teehee) set up a page to thank the public for the outpouring of support, and has created a Baby Formula Fund to help others. I just made a donation, it made me feel a little bit better about the shit news out of DC overnight.

Had a Costco hot dog for the first time in 6 years and now I vow never to love somewhere without a Costco.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

I stand behind Rep Tlaib.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib, a Palestinian American DSA member who represents metro Detroit, is the second sitting Democratic congressperson to demand the resignation of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

I genuinely would love to just convert old cars like this to electric even if they get the absolute tiniest range for weight reasons.
North America needs to pull some old French designers out the retirement homes to teach us how to make cars with nice faces again.

I am once again saying that we saw what wall to wall, panic coverage of a crisis looked like after the Biden debate and there’s no reason Trump isn’t getting that kind of coverage except for class solidarity.
So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?

I should work today but I'm so thoroughly cozy reading in bed on this gloomy, rainy day that I might just plead for forgiveness.

Kids just moved out. House feels gigantic and empty. Aside from desiring to have a place they can fall back to, I would happily move into a place 1/2 the size of our current home.

The first half isn't for me obvs but I feel so SEEN by T.K. Tucker, author of The Dreamer and the Deep Space Warrior:

"To my fellow blerds who want their happily ever after with their big alien, this one is for you. And to anyone who was personally victimized by the fact AVP wasn't a love story."

Made pseudo Oaxacan style black beans to go with dinner and hooooly shit that was fucking gooooood. Another chile verde dinner success.

Chile verde, rice, and black beans for dinner tonight. I don't like to cook often, but when I do it's going to be low and slow and fucking delicious.

They fired every Black woman at Teen Vogue and every trans staffer.

It is astonishing watching the American media ecosystem just falling like dominoes, bowing its knees to fascism.
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

I don't want anyone to starve. I don't care who they voted for. If we live in a world where I decide who gets to live based on whether or not I personally like them, we are fucking lost in the weeds.

That's also Trump's vision of America.

In light of the cut to SNAP this coming month, I'd like to share that Aldi grocery stores have a "Feast for 10" deal for $40 until 12/24. It includes everything for making turkey, sides, and dessert.

Zohran is stone cold man. Putting out an ad in Arabic after all the Islamophobic shit that’s been thrown his way? Pure swag.

Dems don’t need to copy his politics or even necessarily his campaign strategy, they need to learn how to grow a fucking spine.
