If you live in NC, call every Republican politician you know. Call every farmer you know and ask them to do the same

When money walks , voters talk. Make sure they know this effects everyone in their town and state

Jeffries: "The average Social Security recipient in the US receives about $65 a day in benefits. Elon Musk in his contracts with the federal government gets about $8 million a day. If they were really interested in waste, fraud, and abuse, they would start there ... but they're going after grandma"

Auchincloss: "Democrats need to demonstrate with every opportunity we have how we would govern if we were given power, and voting for a bill that further empowers Trump to tank the economy and threaten our allies and take away benefits from veterans is not a good way to do that"

This is the Serbian people protesting their pro-Putin autocratic regime.

Similar uprising in Hungary against GOP darling Viktor Orban.

Our time is coming.
Hundreds of thousands gathered against impunity, autogenocide, and oligarchy. A government that doesn't stand with it's people, stands against them. #3E #EndImpunity #EndAutogenocide #EndOligarchy #SerbiaProtests

Auchincloss on Fox News Sunday: "This economy is inflationary right now...you know what the GOP response is? Their response is, 'Well, get ready for a rocky ride & by the way, we're gonna give tax cuts to the top 20% of earners & pay for it by taking away healthcare from people who need healthcare'"

What a weekend this has been. I feel like I haven't stopped for more than a few minutes. But it's been filled with supporting a local Ukrainian-owned business, several small local businesses, D&D with friends, earning a little $$, and taking care of my sick snake. Tonight: board games with the fam.

This.
So much this.
Dudes, feel free to do it, too.
Do your safety check and don't bother hiding it. And don't go on first dates that put you at more risk than necessary.
Protect yourselves and don't ignore it when they show you the warning signs.

I was recently reminded that I've got folks on the blue square who can't get their head out of the wannabe dictator's ass, but I can't bring myself to cut those few remaining out, and I should post more here instead...

Okay! I let this little cutie sit for about a week after being 99% done because I just needed to let it be while I made sure what I planned to do for finishing effects was what I really wanted, 😂. But meet Violaceus, or Vio for short!

Made using the mushroomguy pattern from @critter_stitch.

Latest project complete!

Created using the Rolling in the Wheat Triangle Cowl Scarf pattern from Cuddlepie Crochet. I'll have to get more photos in some better light, but I love the gradient of this mandala ombre yarn from Llion Brand Yarn . 💚

I made this cutie for one of my besties @nikkilucasfox.bsky.social

Love how it came out and love the way these eyes really add to it more than the plain black ones I've been using for a while.

Thanks to LemonCatCrochet for the fantastic pattern. I've loved every one of these I've made so far!

I made 'dis. 😁

Thought maybe I'd start sharing some of my makes over here, too. This was a custom commission for a holiday gift I'm told the recipient *loved*. My heart is made happy when I see people enjoy the things I create. 💜

Chonky girl and I were all snuggled up while we both napped a bit this afternoon. She wasn't motivated to get up and head to her room so we could go run some errands until I bribed her with treats. 💜

What a strange headline for a story that notes:

1. 2,169 ballots were rejected for no ID.
2. "The voter ID law disproportionately hindered Democrats."
3. "The evidence overwhelmingly shows" that fraud "is essentially nonexistent."
4. The state Supreme Court race was decided by only 625 votes.

1/After Trump claimed he didn't know anything about Project 2025, I wrote several columns for my newsletter, Civil Discourse, documenting that wasn't true. Now that he's appointed Russ Vought to his cabinet, here's a little refresher b/c Project 2025 is coming joycevance.substack.com/p/more-lies-...
