What's at stake if the Big "Beautiful" Abomination Bill passes.
The top 1% don't need their taxes lowered at the expense of the rest of us, who pay more taxes than billionaires. 💰😠

I’m just waiting for the Fred and George Weasley rebellion with the fireworks and the shattering wall of bullshit press releases.
INBOX- Oklahoma State Supt Ryan Walters doubles down and blames media following immigration statements. "Now they want us to explain why we'd let ICE agents into schools. The answer is simple: we want to ensure that deported parents are reconnected with their children and keep families together"

There are 2 types of people at a pizza party- those who take one slice and those who take three slices. Both do so with the same concern that there might not be enough pizza to go around.

It’s only the 8th day of the year and there is no way I can sustain this level of cortisol increase over the next 357. My fight-or-flight response is the only thing I’ve truly perfected at 40.
Am I actively fighting a bear or just responding to a work email? My adrenaline knows not.

I played Minecraft with my kids for the first time this weekend and they were so pumped. It’s a good reminder for me to continue to show interest in the things they think are important, even if that means I have to head to the virtual mines.

Hudson, the kindergartener: “Can other families have the same last names?”
Me: “Yes.”
Hudson: “Ok but they have to be in another country, right? Or just live somewhere far from the home?”
