Weird how the “we’re broke” crowd goes quiet whenever war is on the table But we have to throw 11 million off health care, cut food stamps, etc right?

Brace yourselves #USPS customers. They're hiking fees again! 2nd time in 2025. Last increase for P.O. Boxes was $5 in April. July 13th the cost of a 3"x 5.5" ex. small box goes from $54/3mos. to ~$57. I'm seeking an alternative. This is worse than frickin "cable creep." I cut that cord years ago.

Weird day! I'd just done 2.3 miles mowing my back yard w. a front wheel drive walk behind and as soon as I walked into my basement door, exhausted I saw this big sucka! 😱 Ewww! My cats wanted at it, but I didn't want them to get bit. So what a Black Rat Snake isn't venomous. Not my #cats! #snakes

Ever watch the movie, "Flow" with your #cats? I have--at least 3 times. I loved it and so did Onyx and Titan. It's perfect for a #caturday thing to do! #catlovers It's fun. It's beautiful. And kind. 🥰

🥗 I just left voice messages for @markwarner.bsky.social, @kaine.senate.gov, and @beyer.house.gov, urging them to continue opposing the disastrous reconciliation bill. If this introvert can do this, so can you! Capitol Switchboard: 202-224-3121

🤔 DYK? There was a period in U.S. history when our government actually built #affordablehousing in the form of single family #homes for working class citizens! Not just investors grabbing every one they can get their hands on. Imagine that! #housingisahumanneed theconversation.com/believe-it-o...

Damn! She is so extremely on point with her statements! Don't judge people using benefits to survive and/or mobilize themselves toward a better lifestyle! If you never struggled, you DON'T KNOW! I speak from my own lived experience!!! Not uninformed opinion or conjecture.
