With enough gardening projects going at the same time on the front porch, eventually the UPS driver that keeps dropping MORE plants says, "Do you need help?" I think he meant, "Can I call someone for you, because this is insane." All I can say is, "Welcome to gardening brain." I'm ok, but also not.

The show with Josh Charles and Annie Potts, "Bad Medicine", is a kinder, funnier, less clinical version of "House, MD". It's really a lot of fun.

If 'Wednesday' isn't using the Chase Holfelder "Major to Minor" version of 4 Non Blondes (as well as all of his other creepy-ass stuff) of "What's Going On", then the makers of "Wednesday" are missing quite a few tricks. www.youtube.com/channel/UCS1... Do it.

Sad, minor-key versions of major-key songs is my main thing. But you'll also find piano covers, broadway covers, top 40, acoustic versions, male version, video game covers, Steven Universe, anime... B...

"Unacceptable" is a weak, useless, both-sides, diversion of the current diplomatic climate. "His comments were "unacceptable"." Pathetic. Stand up and speak up. Or shut the whole fuck up forever. Diplomacy matters, but giving into fascists is a death knell of society. This is the moment. Decide.

It’s only been a few months since Trump accepted a luxury jet from Qatar. He said it was “just a gift”. Today Hegseth announced that Qatar would be building a base on American soil. To be clear that’s not a gift, that’s a bribe.

Whether it’s a $700 billion cut or a $1 trillion cut to Medicaid, Republicans are fighting for a bill that could shutter rural hospitals and nursing homes, kneecap community health centers, and make it harder for people to get health care. And for what? Tax breaks for billionaires.
Post from @meredithlee 

🚨🚨House GOP leaders will hold a 3pm member call on the megabill today  

MORE than a dozen House Rs tell us they won’t vote for Senate text unless Medicaid language moves much closer to House version

Valadao is saying publicly he will oppose the bill unless it returns in total to House Medicaid text 

+30 members have raised concerns to leaders on Senate’s Medicaid update, many have directly texted Speaker Johnson in last few hours
