“Do I listen to my body and go to the ER, or do I listen to my bank account?” —> the American conundrum.

Wanna piss 🥭 Mussolini off?? Take some free courses on government through Harvard on edx.org. it's fabulous way to learn about government!!

“No scam works on everybody, but everyone has a scam they are most likely to fall for.”

DOGE initially promised to save taxpayers $2 trillion.  Now it admits it's only delivered $160B in cuts. And even those minimal savings are nearly wiped out by the cost of implementing DOGE's cuts: $135B. We're losing vital government services for basically nothing in return.

Having two 20-something’s approach us at a bar is definitely not the compliment I thought it would be 🥴

Tonight my sister taught me that no matter how I try to prep, that my anxiety will definitely cause me to lose in the ZomPoc. #Anxiety #Screams

All right, fine. The second Trump administration as villains from the Batman TV show. Let's do this.

Since rich people can afford better food they probably taste better too. Better ingredients. Better people. Cannibal John’s

Trump didn't win 50% of the popular vote. The GOP has slim margins in both the House and Senate. His approval ratings are tanking. He does not have a mandate. Do not let him gaslight you into believing he is all powerful. He's not.

This is a great idea! Do a little research to support small businesses rather than Amazon.

I fostered a dog who walked into my home for 677 days. We had an adoption attempt but was returned the next day. I lost hope we’d find her furever home many times. Out of coincidence, luck, and my continuous posting for her, we found her a home! I love her so much, and she’s so happy!

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Health insurance giants hit a jackpot after Obamacare: profits soared 230%, subsidies flooded in, and market monopolies bloomed. Consumers? Left with skyrocketing premiums while taxpayers bankroll this legalized cash grab. The ACA didn’t just insure people—it insured corporate greed.

Nice article in Science magazine explaining the norovirus surge. I usually hate monikers but " the Ferrari of viruses" is a cool one. www.science.org/content/arti...

Just stumbled on Butterfly in the Sky: The Story of Reading Rainbow. What was *your* favorite Reading Rainbow episode? I traded in a brand new Little Critters book for the well-loved, multiple pages taped to the spine copy of Perfect the Pig from my school library. I still have it.
