Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Can’t believe I didn’t see this category/conversation about this category filling my feed when this ep aired a couple days ago; so many of my skyfriends live there!

Happy #NationalPickleDay to meeeeee!

Walked down the street in the drizzle to treat myself to a tub of my faaaaavorite pickles.

Tonight’s “what’s on hand” dinner is aloo gobi with chicken.

(The ugly blob is pickled green mango)

Imagine denying yourself that joy because "omg it's cliche"

Sheesh. Seek joy. Relish it. Be cringe. Have a moment of happiness. Especially about the seriously cool shit.
Saw someone post that they didn’t want to take any aurora photos because it was cliché, everyone’s doing it

The sky’s full of mystical dancing lights, from particles miles above us, excited by a burp from our local star. You’re allowed to be excited about cool shit, and this is especially cool shit

Love a good “pantry” pasta!

With wrinkly grape tomatoes, peas, slightly freezer burned shrimp, mushrooms, tons of garlic, white wine, and the “it’s missing something“ squeeze of quarter lemon

This sounds like a great political exercise! To actually do, though; not just to think about.

Our editorial stance is kidnappings are bad. This is not Real Journalism because it's important to be neutral about atrocities
Got turned down on a piece about ICE in Chicago for an international news org because they believed I couldn’t be objective about my neighbors getting kidnapped. And well, guilty as charged I guess.

My jealousy knows no bounds right now.
Northern light over downtown Winnipeg tonight.

Bucket list shot for me.

Anyways back in olden times a red aurora meant the death of kings

JUST A FUN FACT NOT RELATED TO ANYTHING

I am SO UNBELIEVABLY envious of everyone who's getting to see the incredible sky show tonight.

Even if it were to manage visibility all the way down here in LA, we've got 100% cloud cover, which also happens whenever there's a meteor shower. #SadSkygazer

Mental health DGAF-edness: considering going out onto the public street in very tattered Christmas-themed flannel jammie pants (I don’t even celebrate Christmas) and a bathrobe to move my car.

This senile, out-of-touch, emperor-has-no-clothes fuckwit needs to be put out of our misery. I just cannot believe that the French Revolution has somehow become so relevant, now, in the 21st century.
Trump claims that food stamps "puts the country in jeopardy. People that are able-bodied can do a job, they leave their job because they figure they can pick this up, it's easier."

I'm also OK with other actions instead of impeach. And not just him; the whole cabinet. Everyone he's appointed, hired, become a parasitic host or puppet for... I've never meant it more than I do now: burn the whole thing to the ground.
The administration is a perfect storm of dumb people who enjoy inflicting pain and are addicted to psychotic cruelty and quadrupling down. It ends in total ruin if you don't impeach him.

It’s weird how many commercials Plex shows for Veronica Mars. Like, 2 in a row, every single ad break. It’s… a lot for a 20 year old show?

Had half a bag of bean sprouts left over from making pho a few days ago, so I made egg foo young for dinner.

“Ordering” a big list of books based solely on vibes and vague reviews. Walking in to have them all waiting for you, ready to grab. No lines. No payment. Just bring em back when you’re ready.

Unmatched.
Here once again to say getting books from the library feels just as good as buying books does. Same arms full of the same books. Same nice little walk through the same aisles. Same brain tingles too. You can even do it right from your phone while you’re on the couch watching bake off. Seriously.

Once again, ahead of the curve! Been this way since at least 30. Used to also be the lady with the Rolaids (which I no longer use because the doc said not to)
The importance of this position cannot be overstated

#BREAKING: The Trump administration is asking #SCOTUS for an immediate “administrative” stay of a Rhode Island district judge’s order that is otherwise requiring it to resume the distribution of SNAP benefits from other funding sources no later than the end of today.

The cruelty IS, and has always been, the point.

Woke up feeling actually nauseous after another night of restless sleep full of nightmares — two rounds of them this time! All of them about being abandoned, which makes sense since I’ve lost/called out mistreatment from everyone who was closest to me in the last month or so.
