Went to my first Celtic festival last weekend in Tucson, and a couple from Paradise, CA, had a pop-up shop there. I lived in Chico for about 6 yrs (moons ago) and was devastated when the Camp Fire decimated Paradise. These folks lost everything in the fire and have rebuilt their lives there.

The cheapest plan available to me (a Georgian) is over $1,000 a month. Healthcare is no longer an option for me. I will ration the medication I take for as long as I can and then I will wait to die.
So every freelancer you know is going to lose their insurance or be bankrupted by premiums because Schumer is an invertebrate

Black American soldiers literally dug these WWII graves. Traumatic. To acknowledge that fact at a cemetery they helped construct is something the Heritage Foundation cannot accept. As Veterans Day approaches, never forget that this country both compels and disrespects Black military service. Always.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

This dude popped up in my mentions yesterday to insist that there were 50 million undocumented immigrants in the country, of which 25 million had entered under Biden, and you just have to realize that these people just make things up and then demand we change the world to accommodate their fictions.

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

While they’re still screwing about with SNAP, it’s a good idea to donate to pet shelters, too.
If you dare show up with “poor people shouldn’t have pets”, I will tear such a new one it generates a black hole.

Families on SNAP worry about not just feeding themselves but also their pets
With SNAP benefits going out late, nonprofits are begging for pet food donations to prevent desperate owners from surrendering their dogs and cats to animal shelters.

Those shots of Paul Giamatti and David Morse are from the 2008 HBO miniseries John Adams. I doubt the dipshit who made this got anyone's permission to use the footage, however brief.

That's the thing with dopamine being tied to task initiation - there's a set of gears that won't - CAN'T - engage in my brain, but none of my problems are with analysis.
I can be fully aware of all the necessary steps, and stressing about starting, and just... not.

Just FYI. All of these accounts are bullshit and have all skeeted the same posts. I don't know exactly what they're up to, but I imagine they'll be trying to slide into your DMs or asking something of you soon if you follow them back. As soon as I block one, another pops up. Ugh.

These sweet babies need some foster love in Philly. ❤️
This very scared (but very sweet) pair urgently needs a warm, loving foster home — together or separately!
Icarus & Kemmit are having a rough time at the shelter.
Their human is experiencing a temporary hardship & has trusted PAWS to care for them until life is more stable & they can be reunited 🧵
