Yesterday's evening sky looked like a painting.
Image of a light blue sky with clouds. The cloud are a multitude of colors, white, orange, pink, and grey. There are a couple of trees in the foreground.

Right??! If I pass out because my blood sugar drops too low do I deserve to be R because I should have eaten? If I am out cold because of a car crash, can a man pull me out and R because, well, I should drive better? Where does that "she shouldn't have/it's her fault" mentality end?

So, Iran taking out a U.S. city is a small price to pay in order to prevent Iran from having a nuc that can take out a U.S. city? Am I understanding that correctly? #insane #orangeturd

I could tweak this so Grimm is easier to see, but where's the fun in that. #grimm #catsofbluesky
A long-haired black cat siting in front of a fire. With the back-lighting from the fire, and the dark flooring and fireplace, the cat is very difficult to see. Only his eyes and some outlines of his fur are visable.

Grimm basking in a sunbeam. #catsofbluesky #majestic
A long-haired black cat is sitting on a tan couch, face turned towards the sun. His fur looks brown with the sun shining on him.

The meadow vole that currently resides under our greenhouse. #trailcam
A black and white image of a vole, taken by a trail cam at night. The image is a little blurry, but it's cuteness shines through.

This cat does not like dogs. This dog does not think twice about invading this cat's space. Poor Reggie received open-clawed swat #3742, give or take.
A black cat on a grey cat tree is glaring down on the black and white dog below him. The dog is looking out the window that the cat tree is in front of.

The only part of the Cornell 7 that I do not believe, is that it was just 7, which is why they need to investigate every guy in that group text. I wish there was something they could charge the assholes who knew and did nothing as well.

If you are a publicly traded company, and your employees need government assistance because you pay them too little, the punishment needs to be removal or suspension from the stock exchange until pay is adjusted. IDK if that can even be done, but fines don't matter to these billionaires.

If a politician takes money from weapons manufacturers, don't be surprised when they back weapons contracts. If a politician takes money from Big Pharma, don't be surprised when they try to stop guaranteed healthcare. That's why I don't take ANY corporate money. None.

Well, I for one will sleep easier knowing this extremely important name change has taken place. Trump can maybe now focus on trivial stuff like the economy and ending the war with Iran.

Rosemary spig is already growing roots after only a few days. Last year, out of all the cuttings, only the rosemary did well in these propagation tubes, so this year all the tubes have rosemary in them.

Mike Rogers was a leading advocate for boosting opioid prescriptions. He took over $1M from Big Pharma. He has always prioritized personal profit over the health and safety of Michiganders. That's not public safety. Watch our new ad, "Safe."
