Thanks for the heads-up! I knew nothing about this, and I'm a huge Silence of the Lambs fan. And yes, Bezos sux.

just been camping for the first time in my life and i have some valuable camping advice: take everything with you. Everything in your house. Take your whole house with you and live in it. Live inside your house, at home. Stay at home, living in your house with everything in your house.

Went to visit my friends at Animal Care Center of NYC up on 110th Street. They’re extremely overcrowded with adoptable dogs and cats. It’s dire. I met Bass, one of dozens of dogs who need a forever home or even a foster. And if you adopt, tell them I sent you and they will waive the adoption fee.

They’re preemptively trying to blame Biden for any attacks on Americans that result from Trump’s war. Absolutely desperate.

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much? They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs. Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher. Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.” It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

The rescue where I adopted my cats from around 4 years ago, feline rescue, had a few back to back expensive medical issues. They aren’t on bluesky, but I wanted to post their donation link in case anyone was able to help. felinerescue.org/donate-now/ Extra pic of the cats for visibility.
Pic of the cats lounging on the porch for visibility. Ember, a tortie cat, laying on the floor, and Ash, a grey and white cat, laying on the loveseat. Both look to be melting from heat!

I've never been one to complain about taxes. I always support local increases for schools, libraries, and such. I'm struggling this time to justify why I should give this government an interest-free loan to build a dictatorship.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Check out this map of the “North American Technate” … a “technocracy” espoused in the 30s by among others, Elon Musk’s apartheid loving grandfather. Note it includes Greenland and Canada and America. Now you know who is feeding Trump his lines.
