One year with this tiny baby Rio
At the vet to get Rio her annual vax shots and I overhear the vet telling a woman, that they can't cover back unless they vax her cat. Anti-vaxer for cats.. Sad about what that means for the 2 young kids with her.

I'm going to actively say at this point that I don't think people should donate to any Dem-run PACs. What guarantee do we have that they won't give the money to cowards to stave off primary challengers?
I mean, it rather feels like the reverse will happen.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

New — While some states have received SNAP benefits for November and USDA is supposedly pushing through all federal payments soon, that doesn’t erase the psychological terror of the last few weeks.
I spoke with 20+ SNAP recipients in 16 states about preparing for a possible future with no food:

ICE out harassing kids on Halloween
This is near my niece and nephew's school in Evanston, Ill just hours ago as they are now on lockdown.
This is what's happening. It's an occupation by ICE in a Chicago suburb. They must be abolished.

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

We took the night off from watching Illinois state troopers beat people up after several weeks of watching Illinois state troopers beat people up. Predictably, they are again orchestrating an enormous response to a small protest and dance party in an area that's already barricaded for protesting in.
