She’s claimed my kiddo’s drawing. She hadn’t eaten it yet and the artwork was recovered with only a few small wrinkles. #Cat

Meet 11-year-old Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, a young girl from Texas whose life was tragically cut short. She died by suicide after classmates threatened to call ICE on her family. Stop dehumanizing immigrants. That is not America.

Do you write? Then you’re a writer. I don’t care if you’re trad published, self published, or not at all published. If you write - you’re a writer. There’s no officiant or badge to collect. You write - you’re a writer. So stop waiting for someone to declare you one. I just did. There you go.

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Trump’s new reciprocal tariffs mean higher prices on everything from bananas to iPhones. A $1 banana? Now $1.20. That $30K car? Could hit $36K. Don’t hoard—this announcement could change by dinner. Shop smart, use coupons, and join buying groups. Inflation’s coming; be ready.

Yesterday it was revealed that the Trump administration is expected to purchase $400 million worth of armored Tesla vehicles. After the story broke, the State Department's procurement document removed mention of Tesla. "Transparency."

Misinformation spreads fast, and for what? A moment of fame? One viral video can fuel fear, distort reality, and even push dangerous narratives. Think before you share. Verify before you panic. Responsible journalism matters now more than ever. #StayInformed #ThinkBeforeYouShare

Owning physical media isn’t nostalgia—it’s preservation. Used is fine. Streaming services drop content, digital licenses vanish, and censorship happens. If something matters to you, make sure you own it. A shelf of books doesn’t need an internet connection.

Our current health care system is not designed to provide quality care to all people. It is designed to make huge profits for insurance & drug companies. In that sense, the system is working very well. But it is not working for the average American. We need Medicare for All.

It’s surprising how few people know that some of the first groups targeted by the Nazis were gay & transgender people. The pink triangle, now a symbol of LGBTQ+ resilience, was originally used to mark them in concentration camps. History matters—let’s not forget.

#BlueCrew - Quote of the Day

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt. This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.
