Tom Tiffany Voted Five (5!) Times to Keep U.S. Forces in the War Driving the Price of Gas Up. He is promising Wisconsinites that he will bring the price of gas down. Let's show Mr. Tiffany that actions speak louder than words when we vote on November 3rd.

i simply think that getting a lot of your tax revenue in fines from the company is also acceptable. it serves the useful purpose of making sure there are regulators who hunt them for sport

A 5-year-old Texan just spent the first day of school in an ICE detention center. ICE kidnapped Liam Tadeo on his way to a soccer game with his dad. Liam should be in kindergarten. Instead, our government has thrown him in a prison camp hundreds of miles from home.

Exactly! More heat absorbed in water means more retention, which means less cooling in winter, which means more baseline heat available to start the next year. People forget about this critical fact!

I’ve completed my nephew’s quilt in honour of his 13th birthday and got some help photographing it. 🧶 It’s a tradition in my mother’s family that your grandmother makes you a quilt for your 13th birthday but my grandmother died when I was 3, so my great-aunt made me one and I felt touched by that. 🧵
As described this is a photo of the quilt on the hardwood floor. It’s a tumbling blocks pattern except several hexagons are a flat colour with a block print. The fabrics are two hockey themed prints in pale blue with red and black skates and sticks, pale blue, dark blue, grey-green, grey and white. The linocut printed hexagons show: jersey with name Willoughby and number 16, hockey stick and skates, tuxedo cat, video game controller, hamburger, chess pieces. There are also letterpress 16s and one cyanotype empty net goal embellished with Posca pen colour.
