“One Big Beautiful Bill”? Try one big, bold-faced lie. They swore this mess wouldn’t add to the deficit…but the nonpartisan budget office says otherwise. $2.4 TRILLION added to the deficit—and for what? Tax cuts for the rich.

We should feed people, help them see a doctor when they’re ill, and support our veterans wholeheartedly as a thank you for their service. Nobody is living large on government assistance - that’s a lie Republicans tell to justify cutting help to prop up the rich. Billionaires shouldn’t exist.

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.

My group chat can’t even pick a date for dinner. Clearly I’m in the wrong type of chat.

It’s pretty easy to plan not to spend money for just one day. Friday, February 28.

This is like a bank robber getting to fire the cops and disable the alarms just before he strolls into the bank lobby.

Grants fund salaries which pay bills. Federal block grants pay for infrastructure improvements like repaired bridges and paved roads. Absolute disaster. Call your elected officials and demand they take action.

Hanging out with a neighbor this morning. He’s a fan of our under-counter heating.
A small black Cairn Terrier is splooted out on a light grey floor in front of a toe-kick heater on a cold New England January day.

….and the bond between cousins…” Listen. I get into it with anyone the first people I’m calling are my cousins, whether it’s fighting supernatural beings or someone’s awful in-laws. They are my ride or die. Looking forward to this. #bluepit

The best thing you can do is starve Meta for revenue. Never click on or buy anything through their ads. Never pay for an ad to sell a product or advertise an event. Never do anything again that will put one cent in Mark Zuckerberg's pocket!

Every day not reading Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein by a crackling fire in an ominous château in the French countryside during a raging snowstorm is a day wasted.

I land on the side of feeding children and keeping them healthy with government funds. Much better use of my money than tax subsidies for billionaires’ space programs. This is a travesty.

Every January I attempt a new, really complicated bread recipe in what’s become known as Batshit Bread Baking. Complicated instructions? Sounds good. Fussy dough that needs a specific temperature water within 10 degrees? Yes please. Currently searching for next month’s saga. Suggestions welcome.
A loaf of cinnamon raisin swirl bread with two slices cut sits on a wooden cutting board on a kitchen counter.

Irrationally annoyed that an ok book I was reading took a hard turn the last 10% into the absurd but I was too far in not to see it through and that end of the year reading goal is fast approaching, so…. #booksky

having exactly (1) day out of the year where every amateur chef in America attempts to cook a giant bird and not fuck it up is, honestly, a wonderful and hilarious tradition

When you’re down and think the world will never get better. Remember, the doctor who discovered the need to wash hands for cleanliness, died in Siberia for his views. Okay… probably not helpful. I’ll work on it.

Well, well, well. If it isn’t a timeline filled with real people, less advertising and no auto play videos. How refreshing.
