Walking in a Roman amphitheater in Verona, looking down, and seeing an ammonite was one of my unexpected favorite things in Italy.

As I read all the actual text of POTUS’ executive orders and compare them to the official Project2025 manifesto, the upset I see on public forums is kind of surprising. They were always clear this was their goal. Why are you surprised they are enacting their plan?

UnitedHealthcare (can’t tag) denied my quadriplegic child a power wheelchair in a denial dated Dec 25. No only are they denying based on reasons that don’t exist, they made someone work on a federal holiday.
