Tigers today

Even before Trump 2.0, the Social Security Administration’s staffing levels were at a 50-year low due to a decade of budget caps & cuts authored by GOP lawmakers. Further staff cuts and office closures can only make things worse for America's most vulnerable. New, @propublica.org

Kinda crazy how the regime likes to ramp up their shit on the weekend thinking they won’t give us any respite from their chaos. But, there is wine, music, good food to be cooked and enjoyed, books to be read, and they will not flummox me. Nope.

Not important but Katniss kills the head of "the resistance" after realizing she was being used to install another brutal dictatorship

That stir fry I’ve been threatening finally happened.

Do good recklessly!

can't hate Wayne Gretzky but this makes it hard to like him #USAvsCAN #4nations

This is about vote by mail. Make no mistake about it.

Some good news to end your day.

I had a stir fry planned for tonight, but I was really craving meat and potatoes. I caved to the crave. 🍽️ #bskyfood

This guy is a King in Metro Detroit. His sports commentary and food reviews, his heart, humor, passion are unparalleled. Wishing Andy all the very best as he continues on. He is such a force and has touched so many of us for many years.

Eggroll in a bowl. Obviously, I like more eggs in mine than most recipes call for. I depleted my chili crunch on this bad boy, but I bought a backup last week. I also add hoisin on top. And, it tastes better when you eat it using chopsticks. I don’t know why, but trust me on this. #bskyfood 🍽️

My own (white, upper middle-class) boomer parents bitch about the low payouts on Medicare and Social Security, having built their entire contracting business on the work of undocumented construction workers, we have faced off a thousand times on this since well before Trump and yet

I applaud the protests, but martial law is next on the docket.

A friend recommended the Costco cauliflower roasted veggie pizza to me, and I had to try it. I defiled it with mushrooms I had, buffalo moz that was expiring and pepperoni (I blame her for that suggestion). It’s killer. Seriously. #bskyfood 🍽️

I had a craving for Barracho beans, and my dill skillet cornbread turned out beautifully. A happy meal on a very wintry Sunday. #bskyfood 🍽️

Felt like a good time to revisit the Tigers wild run to the postseason as the new season gets underway. www.blessyouboys.com/2025/2/16/24...

I'm gonna log-off for the day. I've had to work through the weekend and I'm feeling TIRED. But I put in my mutual aid/power building rep by turning a thread into a ton of different mutual aid resources, ideas, proposals and guides for you to use! Now you can do your one thing today too! 😘✌️

I’m curious as to how many folks you know who have lost their jobs in the past two weeks.

Remember when they mocked us for saying that democracy is on the ballot?

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

Hey, anyone on here (that I don’t already know) play #PokémonGo? I need to make a new friend on there!

this is the only correct and reasonable take on this and it varies not only on a case by case and person by person basis but also a day to day basis. not everyone is everyone’s community, it’s ok to not have an appetite for it sometimes and to pick it up again when you do.

A friend gifted me with her gumbo leftovers. I added shrimp and my snow day Ciabatta. #bskyfood

My mom was a teacher and loved snow days as much as we kids did. She always baked and/or cooked on snow days, and I followed in her footsteps - both in my career choice and snow day rules. Today’s efforts produced a new batch of vanilla paste and Ciabatta. My house smells amazing. #bskyfood

A longtime friend and colleague described what we’re living through to me tonight as a complete freefall, and she’s right. I’m just very, very sad tonight about all the suffering that’s already happening and all that is yet to come. Wishing everyone some peace. Take care of yourselves. Goodnight.

Way to go UM Bball. Nice revenge win! UM Bball beating the big guys!

Fish again. I never get tired of it. 🍽️ #bskyfood

We’re toast.

Just got the dreaded email. University of Iowa is halting all NIH grant submissions. Losing a generation of scientists here will send the state backwards. What a travesty.

Congratulations to Super Bowl LIX champion Kendrick Lamar

Pitchers and catchers report in three days.

Made a last minute menu change and made a French Bread Pizza for halftime. It was a good decision. #food #SuperBowlFood
