Trump: “The Democrats refuse to vote for Voter I.D., or Citizenship. The reason is very simple — They want to continue to cheat in Elections. This was not what our Founders desired … There will be Voter I.D. for the Midterm Elections, whether approved by Congress or not!“

Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

As part of PZR’s Valentine’s blitz, I’ll read Living Doll aloud at 10:15c. The start of Aton & Angie’s love affair. Tomorrow, we’ll read Petit Mort - when Aton takes Ang on a valentines getaway to the UP, to maybe see the Aurora Borealis. 💚 We’ll also talk about the new collab for Little Gores.

Hi friends,
As many of you know, ICE is operating in ways that tear families apart, enter homes without warrants, and traumatize innocent people. This is not law enforcement — this is terror and an abuse of power.

The Olympics disqualified a Ukrainian athlete for using his helmet to honor his fellow Ukrainian athletes who have died in this ongoing war. No political propaganda, they say, as they sell straight up Nazi propaganda from the Hitler era Olympics, under their “heritage collection.” 😤😠🤬

You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).
