Normalize telling people what they mean to you.
Big things or small. The person that helps you think about things differently or the pet posts that make you smile for a minute.
You won’t loose cool points for being sincere. I promise.

ICE agents love to wave around paper that looks official. Most of it is a scam — administrative forms signed by ICE supervisors, not real judicial warrants signed by judges. Let's go through what that scam paper looks like versus a real judicial warrant.

The highest praise I’ve seen for a cookbook and it’s true. If you (or your child) have food aversions due to sensory issues, Color Taste Texture isn’t trying to fix you because you aren’t broken. @mbrobergmoffitt.bsky.social gets it and yes, their kindness really is something special.

Please know that my last words were “Here, kitty, kitty.”
Here is an excellent video from Five Sisters Zoo Instagram. The caption is simply 'Nela in her element - 📹 Carnivore Keeper Gary'.
It's definitely a sound up video.

A reminder for today's discourse:
The asshole-in-chief won't read your use of ableist insults (e.g. dumb, stupid, crazy, idiot, imbecile, moron) but disabled people will.
You aren't fighting fascism by participating in ableist bigotry.

It is very important that your federal electeds hear not only from you on social media, but through direct contact as well. Tag them and then
Call and email. Do both. Tell them to move to immediately impeach and remove for an unconstitutional war of aggression.

“Happy little cloud.” That cloud is amazing. I like to think they had to edit out at least 5 minutes of “that’s a damn good lookin’ little cloud” cause you should be proud of that little cloud Bob.

Avoid writing text that has every letter alternating between uppercase and lowercase. This is difficult for sighted readers to comprehend, especially users with reading or cognitive disabilities. Screen readers won't know to read this, so it will often be gibberish.
