My toofless angel. (Francie needed to have full dental extraction done a few years ago due to a condition called stomatitis. Toothless cats do great and they can eat dry food and treats just fine!)

Although the majority of people around the world are worried about climate change, most still feel it is a future issue or one that only affects the natural environment. They couldn’t be more wrong: climate change is already affecting what’s on our kitchen counter!

Take a moment to be still where you are and take a few deep breaths. "I am present." "I am safe." "I am still." You are still. Still here, still living, still persisting. Still loved and still protected. Still full of potential. Still full of opportunity. I'm glad you are still here.

Proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community as an ally in the fight.

It’s got that new book smell, right out of 1912, with bright red blood staining the page edges. Couldn’t be more proud—couldn’t be any cooler:

The Trump administration is canceling presentations including book talks on important civil rights issues at the Carter Center & possibly elsewhere. Let’s celebrate these authors by buying & reading their books. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/a...

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

My open letter to Elon Musk.👇 Mr. Musk, You recently criticized me and another prominent lawyer fighting for the rule of law and democracy in the United States. I am used to being attacked for my work, particularly on the platform you own and dominate. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

For those at the back…

Gen-X knows 🤣

Todays hero

200 million dollars of waste.

Love to see it!

Judge Trevor McFadden has called a 3pm hearing Monday on the AP’s motion for a restraining order against the Trump White House over its handling of the press.

That means that we're scaring him. Don't give up 💙🪽

Rep McCormick (Roswell—safe red) can’t gaslight his constituents—but they need to wake up. He won’t do a damn thing to stop Trump. A woman asks about Trump declaring himself “king” & what he will do to stop him. His smugness is off the charts. This is the guy who said hungry kids should get jobs.

This week has been a steaming pile of shit, democracy-wise, but took the nine year old to a Korean bbq place last night and he decided the best part of the meal was dipping some rice in the leftover marinade/sauce and has come up with an idea for a new restaurant concept.

📌Happy birthday, George Washington. You couldn't believe this if you tried ...

Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

I was just added to someone’s list called “engaged scientists in climate change” and for a minute, I misread it as “enraged scientists in climate change” … which would probably be 100% accurate …

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

A $200 million for an ad campaign thanking President Trump for "closing the border"? Because nothing says "efficient government spending" like using taxpayer dollars on yourself.

Wait now the right wing influencer woman filed a paternity suit against Elon??? pagesix.com/2025/02/22/p...

Voters aren’t holding back. @ajc.com

83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

When the stupid reveals itself..once again.. We don’t do kings, no matter how hard you try, asshole 🖕🏻 #SheShed

Did you hear about the Italian chef? He pasta away. Get it? I'll be here all week. Don't forget to tip your waitress.

He nails it.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.
