I really miss the love of a dog.
Lots of legit reasons to not quickly adopt again after saying goodbye to our very senior rescue almost two years ago, including a major (very disruptive) home renovation—which is very soon to be done.
It’s time.

This is insane cruelty!
The parents rightly kept their family together (3 kids are citizens, including this child). The boy who was a guest at the address to Congress (deserving of compassion, but a political prop) got treatment.
She’s an American. So should she.

Today’s blatant Tesla commercial on the White House lawn was another new low. 😩

Probably the last time we enjoy these at affordable prices from our local Kroger.

I recall a movie (series?) that ended with a view of a child in the sky playing with a human community below. That’s Trump—a spoiled, petulant, tantrum-throwing brat—craving adoration and caring about nothing.

If Republican senators confirm Hegseth they own him. And his history suggests that will be a costly purchase indeed.

Bishop Mariann Budde’s plea to DJT may have fallen on deaf ears, but it clearly made the Trump clan/entourage uncomfortable, especially JD. So much side-eye!
If only Republicans in Congress had her fortitude and courage!

No point following the confirmation hearings. The grand high poobahs of the Republican party are going to give them all a pass. How about that guy Tuberville? He makes MTG look like a Mensa scholar.

MAGA in DC just being told that Trump just said the inauguration will now be inside: “So we’re not gonna see it in person? I don’t like it. We came all the way from OK. We might as well stayed home & watched it on TV. It sucks. We have farms. We don’t get to not feed the cows cause it’s cold.”

There is hope for conversation and cooperation at the grassroots level.
Yesterday, a very progressive friend was bestowed an honorary award from our outgoing Republican governor, for which he was nominated by our Republican state representative. 1/🧵

I love to cook and I’m pretty good at it (not bragging).
But lately, I just don’t want to eat.
Almost never breakfast (that’s been a long time thing since I’ve always been an owl not a lark). Often skip lunch because just not hungry.
But now I’m also rarely able to finish the dinner I cook.
