I came here to garden and punch Nazis, and I'm all out of plants. Married so long we're now in the Smithsonian. No DMs unless I already know you. Sober-ish when I wanna be. Old enough to know better, old enough not to give a crap.
And if there were any doubt, excluding nursing from consideration as a professional degree will only exacerbate existing nursing shortages. More shithole. We are there.

Great quote from a lady who was a bit of a hero her own self.
We’d like to end today with a quote from Eleanor Roosevelt:
We do not have to become heroes overnight. Just a step at a time, meeting each thing that comes up, seeing it as not as dreadful as it appears, discovering that we have the strength to stare it down.
Just keep going. Goodnight, heroes.

And a trillion minutes? I am mathematically illiterate.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

As usual, trump and his toadies are lying. Unlawful orders must be resisted. Lawful orders must be followed. Simple as that.
CROW: We wanted to start a conversation about the dangerous rhetoric this president is using and threats he's made to use our military in an unlawful way
BRENNAN: Specifically what?
CROW: Send troops into Chicago, into polling stations, kill terrorists' families, shoot peaceful protesters ...

Thought experiment: if trump *were* a Russian asset, then what would he do differently from what he's doing/done? Answer: nothing, nada, nyet, bupkis, not one iota.
Stunning development: Senators now confirm the Trump admin’s 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine wasn’t a U.S. plan at all. It was a Russian wish list. Follow along. This is crazy. 1/
