Let’s just stop being assbags to each other for like 5 minutes— I bet it would help.

Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and DHS need to answer for their unchecked attacks on Chicago residents.

ICE is an out-of-control danger to our peaceful communities.

The images from the Sun-Times today speak for themselves.

I’m VIRTUALLY certain it’ll be either an orange kitty or a black cat with big orange kitty energy. 😆

Oh good! That’s exactly what I want. 🥰 I’m pretty sure what’s going to happen when Jason and I go to the shelter together is a) we ask who’s been there the longest and b) the staff saw us coming from a mile away and go “we’re offloading that weirdo on these suckers TODAY” and then BOOM. Weird mammal

Aaaaaa 🤣🤣🤣 And here I’m all “is it Mount Bonnell? Is it Zilker? 🤔 Where could this be?”
brutumfulmen.bsky.social
I guess I do know why: I hope that this is the kind of cat I end up with if I ever end up with a cat. Just a weird little mammal that does things that BAFFLE me and keeps me guessing.

I must have watched this eleven times, and I UGLY LAUGH every single time. 😆

I have no idea why, but this makes me laugh and feel warm fuzzies every time.

Those were the days 🔥
The Canterbury Apartments, a legendary Hollywood apartment complex that was a hub for early punk rockers in the late 1970s, including members of the Go-Go's, The Germs and The Bags.

Honestly, this is why I take such a hardline stance on trans issues. This here. I do not have gender dysphoria. I don’t really understand what that’s like firsthand. Meaning that it’s WAY more important for me to fight for folks who do and who ARE going through it to get to who they are themselves.

dysphoria whispers until it screams.

some times i notice before it rises.

night birds who forgot the sun.

other times i unveil my bed early.

mournings are usually quiet.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

I’m absolutely on board with defending Chicago by any means available. 🥹♥️

I’m decidedly NOT from Chicago, but I love that city like crazy— if I had to live in a bigger city than Dallas, Chicago would win that contest 10 times out of 10. It isn’t just geography, it’s the FEEL of the city, it just feels GOOD. Like a warm sweater or a good book you just brought home.

You may have noticed that folks who are from Chicago love this city. There's a reason for that. I walked to the lake with friends yesterday, and when I saw the waves rolling in, I felt something shift back into place inside of me. So many parts of this city are part of me. We will defend this place.

I’ve been where you are— but it will pass, I promise. Things will definitely taste different to you afterwards, but I promise it gets better. Best thing to do is not to force it. When I was at my sickest I got really into broths and consommés and what the Brits call “beef tea.” Maybe check it out?🤷

It wasn’t too bad for something with 1/4 cup of soy sauce in it. I used half dark soy sauce, which helped, I think.

I *should* but I keep forgetting to put it on my shopping list! 😭

While this recipe could have benefited from a little MAG, I didn’t use it this time. 😆

Argentina owes money to way too many places. Argentina will be Trump's 7th bankruptcy. They owe the World Bank $1.5B for the latest loan.
