Our cat Biscuit had his grooming appt today and they sent us his report card but I think I'm just going to use it as my bio

This little gal and I are celebrating 2 years together today! I love our snuggles, peek-a-boo games, and bird and gopher watching sessions. You are the sweetest little Miette, and I love you!

Miette the Cat did such a good job posing for this selfie!

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

Post-vet visit (check-up, shots, nail trim, the basic stuff) couch nap with mommy

Everything except string, dollar bill, and tissue. Sometimes I ask for the library checkout receipt with the sole intention of using it as a bookmark.

Are the two people who drove their cars into people yesterday and the person who shot at people in Utah all white men? The person who murdered Democratic politicians yesterday was. Are we allowed to connect the dots? Will be media write exposes asking why white men are so violent? Or no?

Any middle school teachers who see this: I'm going to be in a local play of "The Outsiders", based on S.E. Hinton's book. Most people at auditions, remembered their grade (6,7,8) when they 1st read the book & how much it meant to them. Your work is sticking with kids. ❤️

With some friends ❤️

Baby.

Let’s clear something up: SNAP stands for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — the LARGEST federal program to fight hunger in the country! It blows my mind that the party that touts its “Christian values” is the same party that is SET on taking food from the hungry.

I don’t know man, what could it possibly be?

Bunny watching!

Palestinians are not “facing” starvation. They are being starved to death by Israel. Yet our government still refuses to end all arms sales and implement sanctions, granting endless impunity for Israel's crimes against humanity. End the blockade — and stop the genocide.

Medicaid covers HALF of children in the United States, and nearly 30% of Illinoisans. The Republican plan to gut this essential program in order to fund a tax cut for the rich is a disgrace. I will never vote to take health care away from you.

I got solar panels installed today! Getting them hooked up to the electrical happens next week. So right now I basically have Fisher Price Solar Panels ©️. 🌞

Raise your hand if you also react to cookies with this enthusiasm 🙋‍♀️

Honey isn’t sure about the Easter Bunny.

This show is wonderful! Highly recommend!

Kilmar Abrego Garcia lived in Maryland with his wife and their three children, and has never been charged with any crime. The Department of Homeland Security issued him a work permit, and he joined a union, working full time as a sheet metal apprentice.

Hey RFK I’ve done every single one of these things. And even if I didn’t, not a single one of these things makes a human worthy of existing. Also I just paid a large tax bill so if people like me don’t pay taxes feel free to send it back!

Just finished reading this wonderful middle grades novel and gave it 5 stars on Storygraph! "A heartfelt and funny story about a shy eleven-year-old who learns to manage her anxiety through improv classes—and discovers her activist voice." bookshop.org/p/books/five...

This sweet little baby used sleeping head as a launch pad for her 4am zoomies and wrecked my scalp, forehead, and eyelid up so much that my doctor put me on a 10-day course of antibiotics. She didn't mean to hurt me! Tell her it's ok and that you love her! ❤️

She's decided this blanket from Aldi's clearance section is luxury.

Comfy cozy

Nashville, TN, come see Valor College Prep's production of Little Shop of Horrors this weekend and next weekend! www.onthestage.tickets/show/valor-c...

Miette's inspiring quote for the day. She absolutely didn't plagiarize. start your day with toasty flakes crunchy clusters delicious honey flavor.

"stop taking your silly voting sticker picture, and pet me, please" I early voted at Southern Illinois University today for important offices like city council and school board. The Illinois Consolidated Election is April 1 (not fooling!). Find more information here! illinoisvoterguide.org

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks… “The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government. 🧵
