We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war.
If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

I didn’t mean to be lazy today, but I had to follow the rule. There is no moving off the couch when a cat is sleeping on your hand.

With all the horrible things going on lately, I thought I’d share a picture of my cat, enjoying himself outside for the first time. Sometimes all we have are small wins.

Well, I had an adventure today. I adopted a cat from the local animal rescue. Oh yes, lots of cat pictures to come.

For Women's History Month, may we all remember and summon the courage of Rachel Carson, who wrote Silent Spring to inform the world what DDT was doing to the songbirds, raptors,and by extension, us. While battling cancer, she stood her ground against savage attacks by the chemical industry...

I know I’m probably late to the party, but if you haven’t read, “The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August “ by Claire North I highly recommend it. I could not put it down. I even took it with me when I ran errands. That hasn’t happened in a long time.

A great way to celebrate #WorldBookDay is to sign up for a library card. This is the best way to show your support for all they do. And trust me, a lot of you would be surprised by what they offer 📚

COLBERT, on Rep. Al Green’s removal:
“Some people questioned why so much muscle was needed to remove an old man with a cane. But it turns out it was for a serious reason. When security searched him, they found that he smuggled in a spine."

OK, I get that a lot of readers like the Murder Bot Diaries , but can someone explain why it won a Hugo award? Having just read three of the novellas I sincerely do not get it.

Now that’s how you do a boycott. Do 40 days, if that doesn’t work do 80 days. The trick is to make them feel it when they report their quarterly earnings.

SOTU seats are not assigned. There are general seating areas for each body (House, Senate, SCOTUS,etc) but there are honored seats for each party’s leadership and they’re even trying to squat those.
If it doesn’t sort out, be aware you may see applause on both sides of the aisle but they may be GOP

Funny how a line from a play written hundreds of years ago applies today. And we all know who it’s referencing.
