So instead of feeding the world’s impoverished children (to include our own), now we’re getting a task force to root out Anti-Christian bias. 🤦🏻‍♀️ So many very bad words to say, but simultaneously still absolutely speechless.

People who have never served to protect our country identifying “waste” for an entire department of those that have. This is our new America. Our current government doesn’t know a single thing about sacrifice. It disgraceful.

Agreed. He’s below mediocre. Like the scum that settles at the bottom of a barrel of mediocre.

Aside from the obnoxious hate, this makes me laugh out loud. None of these people have actually ever been a female athlete. Like they speak for those that are/have been, and are “protecting” us. Such lies. There is more threats from male coaches than trans athletes. More than 3,500, I am positive.

🤣 I didn’t understand a word of what Trump rambled about. Was TT the coach, or Mahomes? I think he did a reverse fake at the tail end of that story. Just wow…

Just heard this, and it was the few moments of joy I needed. If only I could travel back to night skating again at the outdoor rink on Okinawa, without a care in the world. (sigh) youtu.be/_bna2ni6h4c?...

So, basically, Johnson doesn’t see Elon bragging on X about all the things he’s already eliminated. Got it.

I’m really tired of hearing his voice. So unprofessional. He’s that annoying guy going around socializing at an event. You know, where people are trying to avoid eye contact so they won’t be the next victim.

At least there’s no place for a red hat. That gives me some comfort. I’ve tried to think of a reason, but I’ve got nothing other than maybe it’s their version of art. As I an artist, I know all too well that we’re an odd bunch. 😆

They never cared about the sports or other participants. As a former high school female athlete, albeit ages ago, with daughters that were also athletes, we always got the short straw for any funding. Always. They also have the same reaction to females playing on male teams. Misogyny is also rampant

“OMG, it’s OMD!” My standard exclamation… I’m a dork. 🤭 I had to laugh when this started playing today though, because I know if I mentioned this song in my County, in a Red State, they wouldn’t even know who, or what, Enola Gay was. DEI! LGBTQ! (clutches pearls) 🤦🏻‍♀️ youtu.be/d5XJ2GiR6Bo?...

I saw live footage of a recent gig, and aside from his other failings, the band was the best part of his show. I’ll stick to my own catalog and/or streaming. It’s a big “no” from me too. I wish the Simple Minds/Soft Cell/Modern English show coming closer than Atlanta.

We’re wondering the same right now. It’s crazy.

It has little to do with reducing spending in all the departments being dismantled, but ALL about keeping the tax cuts. Period. Full stop.

020

Denise D’Amore @denisedamore.bsky.social · 05/02/2025

This. I wish more people were talking about this. Maybe I’m just not seeing it. It really has little to do with reducing spending, but more about the wealthy not having to pay their fair share, off of the backs of average Americans. Same as it ever was. Same crap just a different day.

“…the killing starts…” Yes. It does. Here we go again.

“What, like the J6-ers who killed, maimed, and assaulted police officers?” “Oh no, they’re Patriots and get pardons.” Many of them immediately got out committed crimes and threatened “retribution.”

Come in now, you know he doesn’t have any more time between the golf outings.

Denise D’Amore @denisedamore.bsky.social · 04/02/2025

Yep. These “loser” Veterans saw brothers and sisters in arms die for their country, and they are not afraid to do the same to protect the ones still standing. Not a bunch of people I’d like to be messing with. My own 100% DAV, who served 31 years, father is most definitely rolling in his grave.

But they’re ok with the doxxing CDC officials and medical professionals. Hypocrites.

There’s more incredible info available about him in the comments after clicking the original post. What a cool guy! (This was my first real traumatic experience of a public nature, like 9/11. In that, I watched it happen, and cried for days. Shoot, it still makes me sad. Devastating loss.)

The Quilt Police are awful, and unfortunately, set up shop in many Guilds. As I hope others have told you as well, I think this is beautiful! Well done!

He doesn’t care about us. He cares about it costing them. They bought him and his cronies to make more money.

Denise D’Amore @denisedamore.bsky.social · 04/02/2025

I agree that it should be a thing, but it’s never going to fly, and in more likelihood, we’re going to end up making these banks and financial institutions richer with bail outs to the tune of billions of dollars. Yet again.

Denise D’Amore @denisedamore.bsky.social · 04/02/2025

I don’t condone violence, but we can’t forget that there are still lots of retired, military trained men out there. This goes for messing with the VA, as well as SS. They’d have nothing left to lose. I’d 100% support them fighting for rights they earned.

He’s unashamed of his racism and misogyny. Pubic diplomacy. Ugh. It’s disgusting how vile our government just keeps getting.

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

Agreed. We, speaking for most Americans I know, would actually like the same.

I know she struggled with OCD, PTSD, panic attacks, and depression, which she openly spoke about, and being that she was also unapologetically herself, I think it all got too much for her. She is still around, just doing more behind the scenes.

Oh yeah! I forgot they actually had an entire Covers album. I loved their version of “Where is my mind?” as well. I’m going to have to listen to them tomorrow. Refresher.

They had/have the absolute best cover of Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill.”

Agreed! This and the Grosse Pointe Blank soundtrack are my faves, pretty much of all time. I still listen to them both straight through regularly.
