As a liberal, I'd like to remind you what I voted for: Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security to exist. Social programs Grant funds for non profit organizations that fill in missing services for elderly, disabled, underfunded areas like headstart. Medical research grants for cancer/ disease.

Ugh, arguments on the Internet are the worst. "Well you didn't consider XYZ!" That's because their questions were about ABC, not XYZ. XYZ is conjecture, assumption, and not an automatic "gotcha" that people seem to think it is.

With RFK Jr and Linda McMahon as heads of departments that directly affect public health and education, I'm glad I homeschool my kids because the next 4 years will be an absolute shit show. Herd immunity is already a struggle to maintain in the South. Attempts to be "crunchy homesteaders who trust

If Fotus wants to stop taxpayer and government waste, you think he wouldn't spend $25M for his own entertainment, wouldn't try to change the landscaping of the White House, and wouldn't take excessive golf breaks, but we all know he's just all talk and revenge on the people for him not beating Biden

Medicare is under attack, too. Many seniors cannot physically travel easily. This new policy is cruel to inflict upon them and will increase burdens on doctors and nurses.

Looking out over his domain. Just after this he gagged, so I guess that sums up how he feels.

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

Any and all positions that will be up for vote in the Midterms need to have a Democratic opponent, especially in southern states. When I went to vote in November, there were maybe 2 Democrats on the ballot other than Harris for local elections. No third party. If you want change, start local. If you

606 books on my digital TBR list will not be getting me through the year. I have about 30 physical books to read. I'm working my way to eliminating Am👎z👎n from my wallet. A large retailer closed up shop in our area so we only have two smaller, independently owned bookstores within 50 miles.

Animal Crossing day. I overdid it on crocheting the last few days so my arms need a rest. I always seem to forget to pace myself and pay the price for a couple of days until my muscles forgive me #crocheting #gettingbuff #sittingbutnotsedentary #yarn #crafting #ouch

Laissez les bon temps roulette! Blanket. 6 rows plus turns in alternating colors in SC Moss Stitch, 3 rows plus turns in DC Moss Stitch. It's giving "back of the couch throw from Grandma's house" vibes. Making it in Mardi Gras colors. Debating if I should make fleur de lis appliques....

www.wbtw.com/news/grand-s... When they forget that we already have departments in place on local, state and federal levels to sus out FWA. It's FWA to spend your time making crap like this, forcing taxpayers to cover the time and money it takes to review it.

How are you guys going to focus on Black History Monday tomorrow? I'll be continuing to read about how my local gov affected the lives of hundreds of black families, businesses and neighbors because of their choice to build roads through the community instead of around it. I'll also read a book on

Just an FYI: I was told today that the Joann stores that are closing are not accepting coupons from Joann because technically they're not owned by JoAnn anymore and can't be honored. #joann #bankrupt #liquidation #yarn #crochet #knitting #crafters #sewing #embroidery #decor #art #fabric

You can only see so far down the road. It's foggy, rainy, cold. The playlist is Lacuna Coil, Depeche Mode, Breaking Benjamin, Bad Omens and Sleep Token. General mood is contemplative and complacent.

If you have a Joann's gift card, use it within the next 2 weeks. 500 stores are closing and they allegedly aren't planning on accepting gift cards beyond February. #yarn #crochet #knitting #sewing #art #decor #fabric #vinylcrafts #cricut
