So instead of feeding the world’s impoverished children (to include our own), now we’re getting a task force to root out Anti-Christian bias. 🤦🏻‍♀️

So many very bad words to say, but simultaneously still absolutely speechless.

Just heard this, and it was the few moments of joy I needed. If only I could travel back to night skating again at the outdoor rink on Okinawa, without a care in the world. (sigh)

“OMG, it’s OMD!” My standard exclamation… I’m a dork. 🤭

I had to laugh when this started playing today though, because I know if I mentioned this song in my County, in a Red State, they wouldn’t even know who, or what, Enola Gay was. DEI! LGBTQ! (clutches pearls) 🤦🏻‍♀️

It has little to do with reducing spending in all the departments being dismantled, but ALL about keeping the tax cuts. Period. Full stop.
As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.

Really think about how twisted this all is.

There’s more incredible info available about him in the comments after clicking the original post. What a cool guy! (This was my first real traumatic experience of a public nature, like 9/11. In that, I watched it happen, and cried for days. Shoot, it still makes me sad. Devastating loss.)
Ronald E. McNair: Father, Husband, Physicist, NASA Astronaut, Pioneer in the Field of Lasers (SO COOL).

We tragically lost him in the tragedy of the 1986 Challenger Space Shuttle. He was selected to become part of NASA group 8, the first class that included both women and minorities.

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

Relatable. When you’re in the middle of a dumpster fire, but still trying to stay positive. (Best live performance ever!)

❤️ I wish more people understood that no one else really matters… or cares. Just dance!
I don't care if you think you look stupid when you're dancing. When that song comes on, and you wanna dance, just dance.

Dorothy B. Porter changed libraries 💜

The Dewey Decimal System used to only have two classifications for Black people: 325 (colonization) & 326 (slavery). Each book by a Black person was put into one of these classifications. A book of poetry? Classified as colonization.

Enter Dorothy B. Porter 🧵

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

This morning on Experian. 2.9 Billion 😳 Not sure when this happened, but I wonder if this is has to with the DOGE access. Suggest everyone lock down their credit reports regardless.

I loved this song! Might rate as obscure, but I have great memories attached to it.
Potent pop pleasantly produces peace and protects against pessimism produced by the pernicious plotting of pachyderms.
