One of the good things about never quite getting around to canceling subscriptions is that I get to do it when it might make a difference.
Y’all, Spotify’s stock price sunk by 5% in 1 day. YOU did this by spreading the word to boycott them for running ICE ads.
These billionaires only speak one language—money—so let’s keep up the pressure. Tell everyone you know to cancel their Spotify subscriptions. Send them to BoycottSpotify.com.

I focused on the words before even noticing the rest of the image and thought it was announcing a huge sale at Chipotle’s.
I know none of this is funny and I’m not sure what wall I’ve hit where I’m resorting to jokes, but I swear “Chipocolypse Now” sounds like something chips ahoy or the Keebler elves gave us in the 80s

Idiots on campus keep letting off fireworks and terrifying Eli.
It helps if I sing to him, but the only calming things I could think of were Stay Awake and Feed the Birds from Mary Poppins. When I get to “Don’t lie down…” he shuffles over to the bed and lies down. It’s so sweet.

Eli and me reunited after his 36 hour walkabout.
Fireworks freaked him out, he dug under the fence and ran. From sightings on social media, I figure he covered maybe 10 miles.

Hey @jvl.bsky.social! You should definitely see this.
I know we don't feel like there's much to celebrate this July 4th. It's been a rough several years.
So I want to talk about how we're making history right now.

#MAGAMurderBudget is absolutely life and death for us all. They are stealing food from children and cancer cures from all of us in order to terrorize, abduct and abuse whomever they select via causes they invent.
If this bill becomes law, ICE will become the best-resourced law enforcement agency in the history of the country, with more funding for detention than the entire federal Bureau of Prisons.

I know everyone is struggling but I need help. Due to my loss of income, dad & I are at risk of losing the house from debt. Any help/reskeet you can give me to hold onto this house until we're better situated to sell it vs losing it would be greatly appreciated.
