I have been suffering from insomnia lately, worrying about the lawless direction we have headed, but the sun still rises over this little pond, and I managed a short walk to see it through sleepy eyes. #photography

Go to Costco. Their prices are fixed at a small percentage above cost and won't be raised. They make their profit from Costco cards which is a very small investment considering how much you save by shopping there. You'll save even more in the coming year and Costco is a big DEI supporter.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

It's time, as a nation, for us to admit that trust fund babies and people who were born into extreme wealth do NOT know how to take care of the middle class or poor. Nor do they care.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.
With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.
