Kid asked, "Will a miracle save us" from ICE?
"Not a miracle, bud. Real people, making real change."
Then we hugged it out, and he felt better. I don't, yet.

[Free birth scammer's] eighth child ... was born “limp, unmoving, and grayish white." ... “Had I intervened to accelerate his revival, this would have deprived him of his ownership over his vital and truly enlivening experience of transitioning independently to full incarnation.”
Influencers made millions pushing ‘wild’ births – now the Free Birth Society is linked to baby deaths around the world

Boycott the Federalist, Epoch Times and One America News (Pentagon sycophants). Not like you weren't already, if you're here, 🤓 but if someone has like a site blocker for cell phones for us less savvy tech users, LMK.

Remember when people told on themselves by dismissing misogynistic banter as "locker room talk"? I feel like that's what's going on here. Time to leak JD Vance's texts.

Extortion in the Oval: How Trump Turned the Presidency Into a Billion-Dollar Shakedown Scheme
Since returning to the White House, Donald Trump has made one thing painfully clear: if you're not paying, you're not playing. The presidency, once considered a position of national service, is now a ...

Good Morning America (typically, sanitized news we can easily edit w/a kid in the room/our only antenna channel) featured a 2-year-old Palestinian in a body bag this morning.

It is the definition of willful ignorance to deny the reality of this horror.

Double whammy on the hud.gov front page: mixing of church and state AND blaming the "Radical Left" in a pop-up before you can access vital details about housing.

This administration feeds on cruelty. Pushing the death penalty and unable to cope when they can't kill everyone they want to kill. "[T]hey will be treated like they’re on death row for the rest of their lives,” Bondi said of prisoners whose death sentences were commuted under Biden.

I'd have called TX public schools "absurd," "hypocritical" and a "crushing" environment 25+ years ago when I was in them; they've fallen
so much farther since.

When love and empathy are "hate speech" and inconvenient history is erased; when people in power deliberately erase literature and art and truth, all we have is one another. Hold tight to truth & love wherever you find it. ❤️‍🩹

Kirk said empathy is toxic manipulation, & he's still wrong. Don't waste time caring about a person who thought caring was weakness because you're told to. Caring comes from your heart, and it's OK not to feel sad for someone who didn't care about you — or the reverse, if true. Trust your ❤️!

Social Security office has 17 windows. One open. Periodically, security culls the waiting room in the harshest *English*, chastising people for failing to intuit the new appointment-only policy & forcing bilingual waiting folks to explain to others. THIS is being poor/older in America now.

GOP wants you to think it's improving SNAP by tying funds to a low "error rate," but this absurd metric was met by just 8 states in 2024. USDA: "Payment errors are largely unintentional and may be on the part of the state agency or the SNAP household." This IS about cutting food to the poor.

Didn't realize the sweet family-that-protests-together pic I posted had this sweet F-bomb right over my head. Pretty hard to avoid people angry enough to swear today. #worthit #handsoffmassachusetts

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Trump's list of all the good things our government HAD done in the world that he has stopped was my breaking point. Devastating stupidity.

If you wouldn't trust this huckster,why would you trust the government that backs him? If you would trust them, how can we trust you?

Didn't get the memo on sending your kid with a whole freakin' gift bag for 23 kids. I thought we were doing awesome by sending "scratch off" cards with a shiny penny for scratching. #oldmom

Message from kid's school that it's reversing 2024 Title IX protections (but not explaining which those are) per court order + promising to "remain committed to providing an education and employment environment free from sex discrimination and
sexual harassment": not all that reassuring.

According to Good Morning America — my sole visual news source — the only things happening right now are plane crashes, weather, and Super Bowl.

If I told you I was gonna give you, say, the Heisman Trophy, or Mount Washington, you would laugh, right? Not accept it and then expect it to be handed over?

You can't give a gift that's not yours to give. A rule so fundamental Emily Post didn't even bother scolding about it.

I don't know what the DIA does, but my guess is nothing good — except maybe their MLK Day program and employee support groups?

BYO political metaphor: Read a warning not to touch my panhandle after baking in the oven. Made fun of the warning aloud. Carefully took the pan out of the oven with a mitt. A second later, grabbed the pan, successfully burning my palm and fingers. 📛
