Sending you good vibes. Gift wrapped in magical, magenta colored skies.

TIL that my incredibly white city has a black-owned bookstore I must visit one day. (It’s really far, unfortunately. No car.) I’ll make my way there eventually.

Musk and DOGE are closing local Social Security offices, making it hard for people with disabilities to access help. Frank Bisignano, former FISERV CEO, is Trump’s nominee for commissioner of Social Security. He is likely to expand this. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

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)

Denali (/dəˈnɑːli/) is the highest mountain peak in North America, with a summit elevation of 20,310 feet (6,190 m) above sea level (shown here from the south).

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!)

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who agrees that if you want people to stop calling your party a bunch of Nazis, then your party leaders should stop doing Nazi things like the Sieg Heil. Did you notsee this coming?
