Just taking a moment to marvel at all the factual, thought provoking, and/or creative people on this platform. I don’t think I ever would have found you as I trudged along through that last bog of eternal stench.

Listen…If y’all want to talk honesty, then let’s be honest about all of it.
The promises, the hypocrisy, the receipts.
Because what you campaigned on and what you’re doing? Two very different things.

I’ve never hesitated to join a Republican colleague standing up for the American people. While Republicans need to reopen the govt, we can't hold food assistance hostage. I'm backing Sen. Hawley's bill to keep SNAP going during the shutdown. Leader Thune needs to bring it to a vote NOW!

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable
You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

A perfect souvenir from a day at the chariot races! This pottery cup or jar has barbotine (liquid clay) decoration, piped on just like cake icing. It depicts four quadrigae (four-horse chariots) in an endless circular race. 🏺 #ancientbluesky 1/

My mother casually mentioned the other day that she was the 2nd desegregated graduating class from her high school.
In 1972. Seven years before I was born.
I'm still sitting with that.
