Apparently since they won’t be collecting taxes from the wealthy anymore, it’s ok to fire half the IRS, and since the plan is to run Social Security to the ground, may as well fire half those workers, too. The math isn’t mathing.

Trump wants to fire 83k VA workers, many of whom are veterans themselves, decimating the VA & making it harder for veterans to get health care & benefits. When Americans put their lives on the line to defend our country, we must keep our commitments to them — not betray them.

All that BS about dead people on Social Security. Lies. The office was markedly efficient at stopping my mom’s checks immediately after she died because the funeral home reports directly. Those of you close to retirement, take Social Security early, you don’t know how long you’ll live.

NIMBUS PULLOVER by Jessie Mae Martinson @jessiemaeddesigns.bsky.social is live on Ravelry. This sweet cabled sweater feels like being wrapped in a cloud. Here it is unblocked at Valley of Fire. My version is knit with Big Birdie in Dolce from The Lamb and Kid.

Can confirm that yesterday, next to a sign saying OPEN DAILY a big National Park store had signs saying was closed all day and would reopen tomorrow. Park services are now immediately affected by Trump cuts.

I’m watching the Super Bowl today because of Kendrick. Now I know everything he does has to be approved by the NFL, so I’m not expecting anything groundbreaking. I am also cheering on KC because I do think Mahomes is very talented, BUT I am not blind to the NFL for their racism and how they exploit.

This is America y’all. Just another day in the neighborhood. My son didn’t even know this had occurred.

Beyoncé winning AOTY is finally some good news. Asking for a yarn dyer to please make a collection inspired by her. It’s about time.

Dear Mexico, Canada, Panama, and Europe: 100 percent tariffs on Tesla.

A reminder that as Americans, we were warned to expect “hardship” from Trump’s economic plans pre-election. We are about to see how tariffs affect prices and companies now in real time.

Happy Lunar New Year! I noticed yesterday while shopping at 99 Ranch that the produce section was noticeably less prosperous, an unexpectedly sad selection before the new year. Is this a sign to come, of scant produce aisles because workers are too scared to show?
