Happy to say that, of the businesses within about 50 miles of me, I've only ever even heard of one of them, and I've never been there. Nice when they make boycotting easy by not really mattering.
NEW: PublicSquare, a website that lets you search for businesses in your community that explicitly want you to know they endorse Trump/MAGA values, is backfiring as people use it to boycott those businesses. www.huffpost.com/entry/public...
Website For MAGA-Friendly Businesses Backfires As People Use It For Boycotts
Social media posts about PublicSquare have gone viral as Trump critics use it to find companies not to support – the opposite of what the site was set up for.

I know this is tangential, but holy mackerel, look at that absolutely stunning ribbon skirt the lovely Native American lady is wearing! Beautiful, beautiful.
I joined the Nat'l Black Farmers Association in Baskerville to discuss crucial needs for farmers, like the necessity of a farm bill, and to learn more about how Trump’s trade wars and illegal funding freeze are devastating the ag industry—a vital part of VA’s economy. We must fight for our farmers.

Mine are:
5) Here's a weird thing your brain does & why
4) 12-yr-olds explore magical realities that overlap this one
3) That house/building is um not what it appears to be
2) Old lady sees things others don't and (solves crimes/is very spooky)
1) Whatever happens in this book, it won't be romance

My favorite genres are:

4) I'll see my throne destroyed before bowing to fascism
3) Cozy fantasy secretly actually about the horrors of war
2) This man must be stopped but alas he is very Hot
1) The house is haunted but not in the way you think

@fridaytea.com I've tried to reach you on several social media sites and your website and I can't get a response. I'm starting to be afraid this website is a scam and I'm going to be out over $100 for tea I'll never see. Is anyone reading this?

The fires are lit- Gondor calls for aid!
Beautiful trouble! Distress flags hung from iconic sites in National Parks across the country including Arches, Yosemite, Joshua Tree, and Rocky Mountain, as part of a US-wide day of action to protest reckless cuts and firing of federal employees at National Parks.

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.
That means:
🚫 No gas from corporate giants
🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

All the Russian bots following people on Bluesky have American flags in their profile pics. Hey, idiots... you'd fool more people on this platform if you turn the flag upside down.

Hey All: Google is pulling the "automatically on for anyone over 18" bullshit with Gemini that the Dropbox did for its AI, but I can't afford to ditch Google Drive/Docs/Workspace.

I unsubbed from @washingtonpost.com for their cowardly decision not to endorse a Presidential candidate. I haven't unsubbed from @nytimes.com for their kowtowing... yet. Would love recommendations for some decent, reliable journalism, friends.
New White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt did her first press briefing today and told a number of demonstrable lies (about condoms for Gaza, the criminal records of undocumented migrants, and more).
This is how the New York Times covered it.

15 more days until I get to go to the eye doctor and finally get bifocals! That may sound sarcastic, but y'all, it is not. Nobody has ever been as excited as I am to go to the eye doctor AND BE ABLE TO SEE CLEARLY AGAIN. 🥳🎉👓

Will I finally take the tree down tomorrow? Probably. I hate to see it go. There’s been a tree (Samhain or Yule) in that corner since August, casting its spirit-lifting light. I will miss it terribly.
