Wood Ducks are aptly named; they are one of the few waterfowl species that perch and nest in trees.

Boss: Do you think you can come in on Saturday? I know you enjoy your weekends but I need you here. Me: Yeah, no problem. l'Il probably be late though as public transport on weekends is slow. Boss: What time will you get here? Me: Monday.

Tariffs are a mess. They hurt everyday people. Prices go up, businesses suffer, and jobs are lost. It’s a classic case of those in power making decisions that hit the working class the hardest. We need fair trade, not this chaos. You know that. But we all need to keep saying it. #TariffTrouble

These morons really thought American workers, who want things like paychecks and OSHA regulations, were going to start making microchips for minimum wage.

What’s the FIRST name that comes to your mind?

Cost of extending the Trump tax cuts for the rich: $4.6 trillion Cost of cutting corporate tax rate to 15%: $1 trillion Remember this as we hear about "wasteful government spending."

Coolest Subaru I have ever seen

77 million people voted for deregulation (Trump). Did they know they were also voting for pollution, cancer, and climate chaos loved ones and future generations? We can now be poisoned on purpose—without a check.

There was so much music going on, I had to hop on the set 🥁

the transfer to El Salvador of US deportees is, per Pres Bukele, a straight up contract that has “nothing to do w/foreign policy.” The fees we are paying makes their entire prison system “sustainable.” Don’t see how US can make argument that bringing A-G back is some sensitive foreign policy matter

Happy #caturday to those who celebrate, from me & #emilymonster.
