Grateful today is Saturday - ready for a day off! Also grateful for those who do work the weekends - been there, done that, hats off to you! What are you grateful for this morning? #gratitude

This.

"it turns out that even MAGA doesn’t like Kid Ketamine taking his chainsaw to the government programs that they’re just now finding out that they use, too. somehow, these fuckwits thought that firing half the government would somehow only affect drag queens." Thank you @jefftiedrich.bsky.social!

Fucking brilliant!

Very grateful that last night's dream that I'd started smoking again was just a dream. Those seem to come when the stress levels are up - a good reminder to manage it (without cigarettes!). What are you grateful for today. #gratitude

I know many of you are already readers of @hcrichardson.bsky.social - this morning's "Letter from an American" struck me as especially poignant. Perhaps worth sending to my Republican senators...

504 plans are how kids can carry EpiPens or make sure their classroom is peanut free. It’s how kids with diabetes can use insulin. It’s how kids with mobility issues can have more passing time or use an elevator. An attack on 504 is an attack on everyone. Listen to @lollardfish.bsky.social.

Grateful that the dog's allowing me my quiet wake-up time this morning - that's not always the case lately! I still love him though... What are you grateful for this morning? #gratitude

First, I'm furious about this action by RFK. Second, though: does he look even a little bit healthy? This is not a crack about his appearance; rather, he really looks like there's something bad going on with his health...

This is brilliant...

My interest here is largely person: my niece is scheduled to start her first overseas assignment with the State Department in the DRC in May. But this is horrific period - why don't we hear more about these conflicts in Africa? #drc #rwanda #africa

Grateful that we didn't get a heavy snow last night - should be able to manage a trip into the office. What are you grateful for this morning? #gratitude

Grateful to be taking a client to a job interview today - fingers crossed for him (though we'll make sure he's prepared, too!). What are you grateful for today? #gratitude

I'm grateful that a new employee is starting today! What are you grateful for this morning? #gratitude

Like many of you, I've been feeling overwhelmed by the "flood of shit" coming out of the White House. I've decided that i need to pick my focus in order to be most effective. So, I'm going to monitor and respond to issues of disability service (my professional focus). #resist #disability

Grateful that last night's snow was light - should be able to handle with a broom. What are you grateful for this morning? #gratitude
