Having not been on social media much, I'm not good at profile writing. Here goes. My interests are (not necessarily in order of importance): gardening, gaming, reading, living, sleeping, my dogs, unofficial bird watching, baking, drawing... How's that?

Currently, I'm growing pomegranate and pineapple guava from seed. I know they might not bear the best tasting fruit, but with luck the fruit will be close enough to the mother plant's.

Yes, I'm reposting someone's repost of this, but it bears repeating ad infinitum.
Andrew Mountbatten Windsor would not have been stripped of "Prince" if the Epstein Files were fiction written by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, John Brennen, and various unnamed people in the Biden administration, as guilty Donald stupidly--and desperately--claims.

The more I hear centrist Democrats speak the more I realize that we need a new political party. Call it the Progressive party--call it anything, but make sure it's pro Universal Healthcare, social safety nets, lowering the cap on S.Security contributions-- aka fixing what they've destroyed.

If only our democratic politicians and the DNC could understand things the way these two do.
“The victims of this Administration are not the comedians . . . . They’re the people who are struggling to have any voice and are being forcibly removed from streets by hooded agents.” Jon Stewart talks about the suppression of political speech.
Will Paramount Cancel Jon Stewart?
The “Daily Show” host talks with David Remnick about his contract with Paramount Skydance, the government’s attack on political satire, and how our institutions got so weak.

The elimination of the filibuster at the start of the Trump administration would be the most disastrous thing to happen for trans people federally.
The policies it would usher in would make what we've seen the first 11 months feel like a cakewalk.

If they eliminate the filibuster, it means national bans on gender affirming care, bathroom bans, a sports ban, gender marker bans, elimination of legal recognition etc. It will make life unlivable for trans people in the US, even in blue states. It's a worst case scenario.
Trump: “…BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT THE DEMOCRATS HAVE GONE STONE COLD “CRAZY,” THE CHOICE IS CLEAR — INITIATE THE “NUCLEAR OPTION,” GET RID OF THE FILIBUSTER AND, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

I don't sub to Spotify. Even so, going forward, I won't be visiting it.
Do you use Spotify Premium? Cancel your subscription until Spotify stops running ICE ads. There are other streaming options that don’t profit from exploiting artists while recruiting for ICE: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

This is possibly the only political ad that made me cry. If only this sort of vision, humanity, and COURAGE existed at the DNC.
If only Centrists weren't attempting to crush this sort of heart from the the Left.

At this point in time, anyone who says, "I voted for Trump but I didn't expect 𝘛𝘏𝘐𝘚," should stop being in "shock" and start making amends by doing something to save America.
