"It's a very nice scab," said Mrs. Wisser, but she did not look as if she really thought it was nice.
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

Choir, let me share a thought with you.
If justice for child rapists disrupts society, then society needed to be disrupted.
Oh, he's a job creator? Oh, the economy will suffer? Oh, the uncertainty? Oh, our whole political system?
If it's built on raping children, burn it all the fuck down.
Amen.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not just the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

If you're too young to remember this, DHS was a thing we just made up right after 9-11 to get Bin Laden and, like... it took awhile but we got that guy 🤷♂️ We don't need this sh-- anymore. Somebody could totally run and win on "We're done now. Airports can be chill again."

Yeah okay, abolish ICE or whatever OR
Eliminate the Department of Homeland Security altogether. Move TSA back to Transportation and restore FEMA as an independent agency. Sort the other half-dozen component agencies back into their natural homes.
Less criminal abuse and around $40 billion savings.

Across the country, voters support many of Zohran Mamdani's ideas, including:
-Increasing taxes on the rich
-Universal childcare
-Freezing rent
-Raising the minimum wage
Everything Democrats do must focus on enacting popular policies that help working people.
That is the path forward.

So. I had to take an unfortunate hiatus from doing the #TaungsdayReading. A lot of shit has hit the fan for my family and we are going to be fighting for funds even more than previously.
The readings will be coming back, but I'll also be opening up more options for #StarWars #OC and #RPG Readings.
