Some great anti-consumerism ways to celebrate, AND to resist! In portland, we have thrift stores, but we also put used things in front of our house for others to take for free. Great way to get used toys, clothes, baby things, furniture, books, pet supplies, etc.. "new to you" essentially. 🙂
I’m not buying a single thing this Xmas. The family has all agreed we’ll give to our Food Banks, Toys for Tots or Salvation Army Christmas for children. If I buy anything it’ll be like you laid out, local, or Etsy. We may do a Dirty Santa but that’s it.

SEATTLE!!!

We’ve now taken the lead by 91 votes! 🤯 This thing is certainly not over! Over 1,000 ballots have been challenged, so if you haven’t tracked your ballot yet get on it! Our trusty volunteers have been working hard to "cure" ballots so they count! We're so close!

My newly-adulted daughter, who has always had a perfect figure, complained to me the other day about her thighs touching a bit now.

As her mom, I'm like Oh no! I'm sorry, that's so irritating!

As a woman who has been working out to prevent chafing for years, I'm like Tee-hee! It's about time! 😈

Yeah, there's no excuse for not reading it when you can use AI to summarize the points and dig into the details from there. Democrats can also use AI to find republican tricks in bills as well. I was hoping to build an app for that some day, but need help.

Gutted by the Dems caving after the blue-wave wins of last week? Sick & tired of us snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? I hear you! Might I suggest you calm yourself, relax, take a deep, cleansing breath... then see if this photo of 2 pandas cuddling is of any help.

@merkley.senate.gov @wyden.senate.gov

Senators, take notice. We're doing our part, you do yours. Johnson isn't going to open until after the Tennessee special elections anyway so he has a vote to counter Grijalvas, and maybe not then either. don't throw away our work.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.
