And you know who you have to blame for this, Nikki?

Remember, the Holocaust didn’t start with gas chambers in Auschwitz. It started with politicians dividing the people with “us vs. them”. It started with intolerance and hate speech. It started when people stopped caring, became desensitized, and turned a blind eye. Remember.

Did you know? Modern farming has boosted crop yields but reduced nutrients. For example, bananas have lost key minerals, apples have 40% less vitamin C, and broccoli has half the calcium it used to. How can we turn back time or correct course? #nutrition #topsoil #regenerativeagriculture

Senate Republicans tried to pass a bill that would have interfered with some of the most personal, painful decisions during pregnancy. It would have criminalized nurses and doctors who use their best medical judgment. I voted no. And Senate Democrats blocked it.

Yikes

I’m so glad someone had the balls to do this. Frivolous and silly but makes some pretty good points about what the government should and should not regulate. #womensrights www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Trump just withdrew the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement. The US now joins Iran, Libya, and Yemen as the only countries in the world not in the agreement.

The TikTok ban will not solve our problem. Unlike most other wealthy countries, we have underdeveloped, primitive data privacy and rights. The government could have made laws that give us ownership and rights to our data. They didn't because Meta/Twitter et al. don't want that to happen.

We've been sent over 4.2 million dog photos over the last decade. We finally have a way to rate them all... portal.weratedogs.com

Twenty years ago, today. We got our first—and so far only—photo from the surface of an icy moon. Titan. By the Huygens probe.

President Biden is using his farewell address to warn us about the dangers of the oligarchy threatening our country as we speak. We must heed his warning. We have to stand up and fight. Our very existence depends upon it.

My lap dog ❤️🐶

Don Jr. Just landed in Greenland Trump before the election: We need to focus on America first, lower the cost of groceries, & secure the border After the election: Let’s conquer Greenland, annex Canada, and take back the Panama Canal. And it’s going to be very difficult to lower the cost of living

North Carolina Republicans’ scheme to overturn their 700-vote loss for a critical state Supreme Court seat continues to proceed

Happy New Year’s! This man never ceases to amaze me!!

The most petty, classless, narcissistic ass to ever occupy the Oval Office.

I may never look at squirrels again the same way!!

Happy belated Christmas y’all! Stay safe and remember to love one another. #preachlovenothate #Christmaswishes

And here is more on the Pendleton Act which is likely to come under attack if the Project 2025 folks get their way. www.archives.gov/milestone-do... #ethicssky #lawsky #politicalsky #campaignfinancesky ⚖️

If we protect the most vulnerable among us, which at the moment is trans women of color, then maybe we will all get free. We are never going to get free by “choosing our battles” and ignoring that the entire country has trained its ire at one percent of the population. I implore you to be better.

I wish I loved anything as much as cats love empty boxes.

The dog got two stuffed animal toys yesterday for Christmas. He has shown them to me no less than 6 times today. And every time, I have made a big deal about how I saw the toys & was very impressed by them because nothing is sadder than a 110 lb. Lab when you do not match their level of excitement.

Dogs met Santa today!! So lucky to live in a town where the fire department brings Santa to visit!! #Christmas #Pineville

Violent Night is my all time favorite #Christmas movie!! If you’re looking for tons of laughs, a little violence and a whole lot of #christmasspirit, check it out!!

The big story today is the Matt Gaetz report. The bigger story should be the incoming President, despite knowing what Gaetz is, because everyone in Congress knew, still wanted to make him the Attorney General of the United States. Never normalize his madness, his corruption. Even for a single day.

Even though I’m saddened by some of our elected officials right now, this article reinforces that all is not lost. We have more power than we think. I think of our forefathers, commoners, who fought against one of the most powerful countries at the time and won. Stay strong and don’t give up hope!

Spreading a little funny today! My husband’s wrapping job of Christmas presents. It’s the effort that counts, right?! Wrapping paper > gift bags all day, everyday! 😁🎄🎅🏻#merrychristmas

There is one man responsible for lighting the fire of this drone conspiracy, Rep Jeff Van Drew who said it was an Iranian drone mothership despite having zero indication besides a Twitter comment, The hysteria started then. Please media hold him to account

Greeting you on Bluesky with this reminder They are living, thinking, feeling beings And they deserve our respect, even if we haven't earned theirs. One love
