I've worked really hard to get where I am today. Stuff like this makes me feel like my very existence and effort in getting here is a threat. Why do people want to erase my identity and path? Why do people want to erase my ability to help others? It is exhausting. clarksvillenow.com/local/books-...

Ladies take note and prepare:

Donald Trump fired the people who make sure you and your parents get the health care you need. The people who make sure medical devices are safe for you to use. The people who approve the lifesaving drugs you rely on. How does this help working people?

Public libraries are amazing! Did you know you can borrow a book from any library in the country and return it to any other library? Did you know they have subscriptions to huge amounts of national and international media that you can access?

Mapquest shows Gulf Of Mexico. In case anyone wanted to know. Magic Earth too.

Just quit Insta again because I can’t participate in supporting the company or person who owns it. So pottery progress will be here now.

Many Latino immigrants in Los Angeles worked to extinguish some of the fires with hoses. They aren't firefighters, they were just helping people in other neighborhoods.

NEW: Wildfire survivors are able to apply for federal assistance TODAY. Visit CA.gov/LAfires to access resources and information detailing how to apply. California is laser-focused on fighting the LA fires and protecting lives and property.

Fun fact — when asked whether he would lower the price of groceries while in office, Trump’s answer was: “I don't think so. Look, they got them up. I'd like to bring them down. It's hard to bring things down once they're up. You know, it's very hard.” Congratulations to the “price of eggs” idiots.
