Kim Reynold announced she won't be running for IA governor in 2026. Federal government, she's now coming to burn your house down (more than it already is). This woman is crotchrot walking.

Oh the hypocrisy. Catholic run nonprofit hospital says a fetus isn't a person when it comes to malpractice, yet the same Catholics are banshee screaming from the rooftops that a fetus is a baby at conception. So once again, money IS more important than human life when it suits the Catholic church.

I bit the bullet and got a new buggy. This is Ostara

A blog post I made...November 5, 2014

This casserole we had often when I was a kid. I don't know if it has a real name. We called it "Garbage". It's ground beef, onions, sliced potatoes, corn, layered and covered in cream of mushroom soup and baked.

Corn

Since Bringing Down the House is taken, I'm going with Last Holiday. She was a treasure in that entire movie. But also--her role in Chicago? Perfection.

It's virtually impossible to save for a down payment on a new (to me) vehicle when the current one keeps requiring $300+ repairs every two weeks to a month. Hopefully it will be fully repaired by end of May and I can start hoarding that money. #FrustratedMoneyVenting

In so many ways. We socialize over food. We show love and caring by cooking or giving food. We create communities around growing food. Food is a source of cultural education, a way to give back to others, and a way to share pleasure.

No Pudge brownie mix. Maybe not the healthiest but they were texture perfection, IMO.

Worchestershire sauce on baked potatos.

Avocados are one of the grosses natural foods in existence. A hill I will die on.

@astoldbynai.bsky.social Yesterday's questions had me all in my feelings. I think I ended up filling 1/4 of a journal working through them all! 100% NOT a complaint! You do a great service every day!

Bill Murray-just another entitled white guy who thinks that just because he finds something funny means everyone should think the same. There really isn't a single white male celebrity who doesn't put their sexual/intimacy toxicity off on someone else (usually a girl or woman).

Being surrounded by family and realizing that with the exception of one person, none of them loved or love you. And knowing that you are not safe mentally or emotionally when they're around.

Money issues. I feel like I'm always waiting for the other show to drop and eat my entire paycheck like Hagrid's monster book.

I'm happier with my life now moreso than in the past. Am I fulfilled? Nope, still working on that part.

Realizing conflict with the people you care about does not mean FIGHT and end of relationship. It can be very healthy for the relationship. But both people have to be at that level for it to work.

My entire immediate and extended family. Literally.

I'm queen of the door slam on relationships. It's a toxic trait, but it has also done good for me. It's discerning when to use it that makes all the difference.

The perfect example of why white women ARE the problem. A protest about the nation's freedoms should definitely take a backseat to a religious holiday.

I forgot what a stellar cast Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy has!

I found my spot and didn't move. I knew there were a lot of people, but didn't realize there were 3000 people!! #HandsOffDavenport

To all the people joining protests today, be safe, meet cool new people, and hold your head high!!!
