I’m here for you if you love to read, love animals (particularly dogs - poodles even more), kindness, tolerance, family that includes the kind you choose, kids, nature, and all things cozy. I’m also a liberal, so there’s that.

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

How fucked up are things about to get? 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Have you heard about the SAVE Act? It's the newest effort at voter suppression by the House GOP & it's important for all of us. If you're a married woman or someone who doesn't have their birth certificate/passport handy, you're especially going to want to see this. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

In 2016 the NYT ran multiple front page stories page about the grave national security risk of Hillary Clinton's server. Today's front page, and nary a mention of the successful "plutocratic coup" (said by a sitting House member) or "constitutional crisis (said by a sitting Senator) unfolding

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

Senator Elizabeth Warren sent a letter on Monday to the Treasury secretary demanding answers for why the Dept. of Government Efficiency was granted access to the federal payments system, giving Elon Musk's team a powerful tool that could be used to track and potentially limit government spending.

I think we all need to show some appreciation for our resistance leaders, @altnps.bsky.social.

Education Department employees have been placed on leave for attending diversity training. Meanwhile, Republicans have introduced a bill to eliminate the Department of Education.

Worried about eggs? Watch out.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Mitch McConnell: Tariffs "will drive the cost of everything up. In other words, it will be paid for by American consumers. I mean, why would you want to get in a fight with your allies over this?"

Gross perverts

She is so cute and sweet and loving. I can hardly stand it. My little rescue girl. She’s still getting used to my family and coming out of her shell ever so slowly. She’s very attached to me, but I hope she also begins to trust my family more.

I feel this shit in my bones. ☹️

Shame on any member of Congress who meets with a recalcitrant, pardoned seditionist. Even if they can't feel the shame, we know this can't be tolerated in a democracy.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah! I this holiday is cozy and filled with love.

My dogs. The middle one we’ve had since puppyhood. The other two we rescued in March. They make me happy and will be my refuge the next several years.

I’m thinking that parents of children who have special needs now need to pay even closer attention to their children’s education. The President Elect has doubled down on eliminating the Department of Education. What happens to kids with IEPs? As far as I know there is no plan, as you would expect.

Mondays be like…

Meanwhile in Mexico, their new woman president just legislated 10 yr interest-free mortgages, and every high school kid is eligible for a scholarship if they continue their education. Mexico might need to build a wall

Thoroughly uninterested in Mom putting up the tree.
