ELECTION RESULT: A team of city council members in Rolla, Missouri, have been pushing anti-LGTB policies, including a ban on drag shows and book censorship. Voters just ousted all three of these city councilors who were running for reelection, backing candidates backed by a local LGBT group.

It’s a fire sale…

An important statement from the American Bar Association. www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

Under fascism, no one is safe. Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc. Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations. Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

Handsome Buddy 😓 RIP

My Buddy will be missed.

Good morning Monday, Monday So good to me Monday mornin' It was all I hoped it would be…. Hoping today is better.

I’m a Biden fan. Uncle Joe is the best.

4:30 am. I give in. Sleep is just not happening, time for coffee ☕️

Great article by Rebecca Solnit. The last two paragraphs are damning. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

My oldest guy. He’s not feeling so well. He’s my buddy.

$1,131,794,901 That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns. Well, the planet is burning. Don't let them look away.

Good morning. Hopefully I’ll get ahead of the snow. Leaving in a few minutes from Cleveland to the mid Atlantic. Road trip 🚗

Missing my kitties this morning, but I’m on a do-good mission. My bestie of 51 years husband and love of her life passed away last month. I am fortunate to be able to spend this time with her 😊.

Happy New Year Everyone. 2025. Wish I was more hopeful, but I’m not giving up 💪🏻

A powerful statement

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts and real estate”. Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

Well done and good job Costco!

I watched this several times. It was as funny the empth time as it was the first 🤣
