These chuckleheads bring me simple moments of joy that I wouldn’t trade for all the golden toilets in the White House. I try every day to be the kind of human being who deserves to share their life with dogs.

Watched “Hitler and the Nazis: Evil on Trial” on Netflix yesterday. I’m no expert on WWII so found it a solid refresher. Also offered an interesting perspective that seamlessly yet subtly wove then into now. History is repeating itself in terrifying and obvious ways. Recommend watching it.

I had a win at the local grocery store today. $6.99 for vegan shampoo. I’m going to remember this as a good moment in the days and weeks to come. #veganonabudget

Gavin Newsome is going to become a serious contender for POTUS based on his expert level trolling and I am ok with that, because playing by the rules has gotten Dems nowhere. There are no rules. Gloves off! Fight dirty and actually WIN.

Blossoms on my peach tree in my very small backyard in Pittsburgh, PA. It’s the little things like this that keep me leaning ever so slightly toward optimism.

Attended Council on Compulsive Gambling of PA conference today. I am shattered that we are creating generations of future problem gamblers thru subtly embedded gambling in video games. Stats on college age youth problem gambling also rising. 1-800-GAMBLER if you or someone you know needs help.

I had a genuine “a ha” moment reading this article as, for me, it finally made a lot of what’s going on make sense. Let me know if link doesn’t work. Still learning my way around here.

A century ago, a German sociologist explained precisely how the president thinks about the world.

The markets are crashing, we can't afford eggs anymore, the economy is shrinking, our allies are abandoning us...
But we'll always have the Gulf of America.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Any Dem that attends the state of the union address should be primaried. I’m an independent so can’t even vote in primaries in PA, but I’m sending this out b/c in a 2 party system I must stand with the sane one.

I was at work today so couldn’t watch the meeting in the Oval Office. Thought: I’ll go home, pour a glass of wine, and watch. Should’ve poured a fifth of vodka.

Fetterman and McCormick should learn from a real leader in PA. I stand with Ukraine and against autocracy, oligarchy, and all other threats to democracy here and abroad. Thank you, Gov Shapiro.

I DIDN’T VOTE FOR ANY OF THESE DOUCHE BAGS! (I want to have this in writing in case we decide to solve this like they did in late 18th century France)

In so many ways, THIS. PA needs to start with Fetterman and then get rid of the MAGA pos from Connecticut (looking at you, McCormick) while we’re at it.

So MAGA is pro Tate brothers and the hatred they spew about women. Call me shocked. What shocked me was how DeSantis responded to it. Has the little man grown back a small portion of his spine?
