simply repeating the straight reporting of what is happening in the executive branch makes you sound like you have lost your mind.

The irony that I do not have the patience to wait the years it takes for my kids to learn patience is not lost on me

Bishop Mariann Budde’s bold choice to use whatever platform she was given hit me so hard.
It was refreshing and relieving and maybe it didn’t change anything but also…she knew she had to say and do something.
I feel exactly how she feels here: IS ANYONE GOING TO SAY ANYTHING?

There’s a house in my neighborhood that goes all out for the holidays and opens their yard to everyone. They have a wall where you write your holiday wishes too. ❤️

Vito beat out nearly 2,000 other dogs to become the first pug to win the National Dog Show. The two-year-old pup became a sensation on Thursday, when the competition, which was held earlier this month, was broadcast on NBC after the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/29/u...

There’s lots of talk of fair talk about how Threads really missed the mark with some of its decisions and is clearly losing to Bluesky.
But I also think LinkedIn should be terrified. Ive not seen enough innovation and change from them even though they had a boom during Twitter exodus.

As someone watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade with a 6 and 2 year old I am just wondering where I donate to a stream of just the balloons because these kids are not thrilled by the 3 second glimpses of a balloon followed by a Broadway show performance.

The frustrating thing about Drake is that I have streamed Heated on Renaissance enough times to pay for his BBL. I need to find a way to go up for Uncle Johnny without paying him anything.

White people, it’s not enough to not be racist. Y’all need to HATE racism like Kendrick Lamar hates Drake. Commit to the goddamned bit.

We fail people in so many, many ways 💔
ProPublica spoke with 135 people who had experienced "sweeps" of homeless encampments. We also distributed notecards so people could write about it in their own words.

The real trap here is that the Republicans have made defending civil rights seem like a frivolous thing and a whole lot of liberals are falling in line. Even if it was a culture war, so what? This would be a war worth fighting. What are we even doing here, people? Get it together.

This isn't a culture war. This is the only trans congresswoman, ever being bullied through the press and legislation, and having only 1 of hundreds of colleagues stand up for her. They can do more than 1 thing at a time. Defending her will not take so much effort that they can't do their jobs.
Defending Sarah McBride is absolutely the right thing to do, and yet there’s also the risk of being baited into yet another culture war cycle that distracts from the Republican grift. Her statement suggests she wants to move forward, and I think it’s wise to take the cue from her.
