if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

11 months after his release from the concentration camps, Viktor Frankl gave a set of lectures on moving beyond optimism and pessimism to find life's deepest source of meaning. They were lost for decades, never before published in English—and now they are: www.themarginalian.org/2020/05/17/y...

World Central Kitchen was founded in 2011 by Jose Andres to help Haiti post-earthquake, Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria, then Ukraine. They set up a kitchen in Gaza but 6 cooks were killed by Israeli army, forcing WCK to leave.
Now they are in Jamaica.

This is an example of what we mean when we say “shop local” 💐🍳🛍️🍎
Please shop the items you can buy at small businesses. You cannot know how much these tariffs have affected us. We have the product on shelves, but consumers are prudent spenders. I shop big box for items I can’t find in an entrepreneurs store. ✌🏻

7 million No Kings protesters and the only arrests today that I read about were Trumpers in Myrtle Beach, SC and Wilkes-Barre, PA who showed up flashing their guns at people. But please tell us again about how today was going to be nationwide riots caused by violent left wing Antifa terrorists. 😂😂😂

It really does not get more explicit than Trump telling top active-duty military generals that they will need to participate in occupations of large cities run by his political opponents as part of his "war from within"
Trump: "The ones that are run by radical left Democrats -- what they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. They're very unsafe places & we're gonna straighten them out one by one. This is gonna be a major part for some people in this room. That's a war too. It's war from within"
