I pack instant oatmeal and nuts and try to find some fresh berries and cheese or hard boiled eggs at a nearby grocery store when I get there for breakfasts. Saves time and money!

Starbucks has not given us a single new proposal in almost a year. We’re serious about finishing our contracts… why aren’t they?
It would cost less than one day’s sales to finish this. And yet, Starbucks claims they can’t do it.
That's why it's STILL #NoContractNoCoffee ✊
DON'T BUY STARBUCKS!

If we were allowed to talk about "white supremacy" in the US, then it would be pretty obvious why what happened in Chicago is acceptable to large numbers of people while Ruby Ridge & Waco (and my imagined scenario) are evidence of gubmint tyranny. The state can't do that to people who look like me!

Speculation is that ICE could be trying to move people out to clean the holding cells and to set up cots to comply with the latest judicial order to address inhumane conditions inside the facility. The judge is currently scheduled to inspect the facility Thursday morning.

I also feel like cooking is one of the ways I get to be creative and develop a craft…and then you also have something to eat afterwards!
