I’m basically an introvert and been told I have a dry sense of humor. Love dogs. I crochet in my spare time. I don’t call people names and expect the same courtesy.

A little hedgehog. On a sledge. Carrying his Christmas presents. 🎄 That's probably enough reason to put him on the tree. And every purchase helps fund our work for animals. www.dogdeskshop.com/products/sledgi…

That's the problem, Mike. It's not just that you've hired half the Third Reich to staff your Congressional office, and you have promoted neo-Nazi content online, it's that you're robbing your constituents to subsidize your donors.

How do those people live with themselves? Go they go home to their families and tell them what they did at work today? Who are these people who want to work for ICE? I hope Steven Miller rots in hell

Just a reminder that #Hegseth also told us to pray for “death and destruction in the name of Jesus Christ”. As someone who graduated from a Christian U but is no longer a churchgoer I don’t recall Jesus ever saying to kill in His name. 25 days to the midterms. Vote.org

New Yorkers: Do you have a form of immigration relief called withholding of removal? Have you received an ICE letter summoning you to 26 Federal Plaza? Here’s what  you can do:

1. Call our Immigration Legal Support Hotline at 1-800-354-0365, or call 311 and say "Immigration Legal" for free, confidential help in your native language.

2. Fill out our intake form to get help from the Rapid Response Legal Collaborative: nyc.gov/RRLC

3. Make a plan. Make sure you have an emergency contact and that someone you trust has your A-number. Talk to a lawyer before making any decisions.

If protesting didn't work, would those in power be doing everything they can right now to vilify protestors and crack down on free speech? Activist and author Annie Leonard offers an important history lesson on why protest is so important — and why it's needed now more than ever.

7 shots fired. 4 pm in afternoon. At a car with 5-year old in it. Can’t use deadly force except in response to imminent threat of death of serious bodily injury. As in, from what we know, a blatantly illegal shooting. That’s without regard to victim’s criminal record. 7 Shots Fired.

Social Security’s future depends on the next election. We must keep Republicans like Ken Paxton out of the Senate and FAR away from our earned benefits!
A graphic with a photo of Ken Paxton. The text says, "KEN PAXTON LEAKED AUDIO: TAX CUTS FOR LOBBYISTS. SOCIAL SECURITY CUTS FOR YOU? AT A PRIVATE FUNDRAISER WITH LOBBYISTS, KEN PAXTON CALLED FOR TAX CUTS PAIRED WITH CUTS TO 'MANDATORY SPENDING.' A LOBBYIST JOKED THAT HER 'FAIR SHARE' OF TAXES WAS LESS THAN SHE PAYS NOW.

Or you could choose to avoid using or contact with something (SI/AI) that they’re trying to set up in people’s minds as infallible and trust immediately while avoiding looking at the fact they were programmed by people whose own set of values and thinking could be questionable and/or fallible.

$1200 for a phone that, if you’re like me, you would only care for emergency use while away from home and never answer any number that is not on your contact list because spam calls became so excessive after retirement. The price reflects how devoid of our reality that billionaires and CEOs live.
