This man is criminally incompetent. Like, my dude. That's not how inflation works.

It's time for the annual viewing. I love that my 19 year old is well familiar with this.

As a Minnesotan, I can confirm that we are NOT being terrorized by said gangs, and any money that's missing is a direct result of federal programs being cut to fund billionaires rather than education, disability services, or systems designed to help those who are most financially insecure.

He thinks the way to distract us from his involvement in child sex trafficking and financial corruption is to remind us he’s ALSO an unrepentant liar, a virulent racist, and a fascist traitor. He’s all the deplorables, the whole basket, so to speak. He’s trying to shoot the moon.
I am a citizen and so are majority of Somalis in America. Good luck celebrating a policy change that really doesn’t have much impact on the Somalis you love to hate. We are here to stay 💁🏽‍♀️

This was the felon's response to the video I posted a bit ago (about people in the military refusing illegal orders). This sounds like incitement to violence to me.

Illegal activity. Punishable by PRISON.
WTAF.
The President of the United States is calling for sitting Members of Congress to be killed.

Every death threat against them and their families will be on his hands.

Regardless of your party, every American should loudly condemn this.

I can't draw, but clearly a noose-shaped ring buoy should be the Coast Guard's official logo.
FASCISM AND ITS SYMBOLS ARE BEING ACCEPTED INTO US MILITARY

Thats the headline
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

The fact that the official spokesbimbo of the White House has said that the president isn't issuing illegal orders is a sign that he is. Most everything out of her mouth has been full on propaganda.
This is the video that has resulted in the felon calling Democrats traitors.
We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution.

Don’t give up the ship.

The kids have discovered that the radio is already playing winter holiday music and I expect to lose the Mariah Carey game in the very near future.

Fascist police were (and potentially still are) active in St Paul today.

This brutality toward peaceful protesters is unacceptable, along with pretty much every action of this shitshow org. We should be arresting them for assault.
Federal agents (including ICE) used tear gas on peaceful protestors at Bro-Tex Inc. in St. Paul today.

"Fun" fact: people with hypermobility, are more likely to develop bunions (it's just joint instability and deviation). No pointy shoes needed.

I don't know how my great grandma walked on her madly deformed feet. Mine look mild but holy crap I can hardly walk. I'm held together by KT Tape and spite.

Google has gone fully evil. Time to step up my email replacement process.
NEW: Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, and tell local cops whether to contact ICE about the person, while also removing apps designed to warn communities about ICE officials.

“Google wanted to ‘not be evil’ back in the day. Well, they're evil now."

This is wild. I would be pressing charges against both the boy and the school. Schools are TERRIBLE at managing bullying; the excuse the boys far too easily and side far too often with the bullies.

This girl's father is an asshole for not having his daughter's back.
A middle school boy created deepfake AI CSAM of his fellow classmate, a 13 year old girl. The girl pleaded with the school but they did nothing and instead put her on a bus with the perpetrator. She ended up hitting him and was expelled but nothing happened to the boy.

Are you embracing generative AI as an advancement, or are you questioning its worth? Whatever your approach, current gen AI is fundamentally unethical.

Generative AI is actively harmful to creators, workers, and the planet. There is currently no ethical use of this technology.

I think this is the final update on the garden in an active state. Here are the potatoes! We got just shy of five gallons of potatoes from five planters. While there were a few tiny taters, most were a decent size. They were incredibly easy, and we will definitely be doing these again next year.

Roasting some squash to add to the freezer. Got a great deal of a big ole box of squash (that's what the sign said) at the St Paul Farmers Market, so there's plenty to eat now as we're in the fall harvest mood, and plenty to save for later.

Gourdon, the squash mascot, was here to supervise.

Accurate assessment of the situation.
Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House.

This is their shutdown.

Call this crap what it is. Lies and propaganda.
we know this is a lie.
she knows that it is a lie.
the media knows that it is a lie.

if we don't acknowledge that it is a lie at least amongst ourselves, then their nihilistic fascism becomes complete.
Kristi Noem: "No American citizens have been arrested or detained. We focus on those who are here illegally. And anything you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting."

Yesterday I made and canned 106 pints worth of spaghetti sauce. This was 92 times my base recipe and it took about 14 hours of active work. This is further evidence that I am the Crazy Food Lady, not the Moderate Food Lady.

It has been five years and one day since I last made spaghetti sauce.

I am thawing tomatoes for 92 times my base recipe. Please pray for my kitchen math.

Love what I'm seeing from the people of Chicago here.
Now: Hundreds assembling in the Chicago Loop for a march and rally to demand the National Guard leave town. Folks chanting "Donald Trump you racist clown! You're not welcome in this town!"

Hey @netflix.com - please note that if you capitulate to the transphobic and homophobic demands, my family will immediately cancel our Netflix account (which we've had since streaming became an option) and nothing you do will bring us back. Ever.
1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters.

If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire.

It has been an absolute delight to work as the editor on both Wisconsin Adventures modules. These are 5e Dungeons & Dragons adventures based on Wisconsin folklore (including the Hodag).

Hey writers! Have you written a scene where the taste of copper is a signal to the reader that your character's mouth is bleeding? Let's correct that misconception with my life evidence and some SCIENCE. Loves me some science.

Part 2 of sharing my parsley with critters.

My black swallowtail caterpillar got big; just one more instar before chrysalis. It has a little sibling now. Sibling was moved to another plant to reduce possible accidents (sometimes caterpillars will ingest other eggs and smaller instars).

Just our fascist government overriding the first amendment. Nothing big.
