Thank you @kcarterlv.bsky.social for continuing to check in on me. I feel like not many ppl care if I'm still alive... My 2nd spinal surgery also failed & this has been beyond overwhelming on top of my terrible grief. I'm waiting for a new specialist to review my case. I hope he will try to help me.

The procedure I had yesterday to repair the damage I caused to my spine trying to save Gabriel's life appears to have failed. I'm not sure I can go through this again, or go on like this... I miss my very good dog nurse desperately. #grief #despair

I'm not okay. Gabriel will rest in this beautiful urn with his brother Nigel, who I lost at the age of 21 months to cancer, 3 days before G was born. The other photos tell what happened, & what I know at this time. I injured my spine trying to save him and am finally having surgery Wed.

I'll be gone a while. Maybe permanently. My beloved dog Gabriel died suddenly this afternoon. I am completely devastated. He was only 8.5 years old and in perfect condition. He is.. He was my only true friend, and the only thing keeping me going with my failing health. I cannot breathe without him.

We desperately need to bring Civics education back to the classrooms. Or at least Schoolhouse Rock. Too many children were left behind.

Another day, another round of headlines about Trump's unprecedented corruption. And this is just the stuff there's reporting about.
Two headlines: 

Washington Post: Trump is using a $500M no-bid contract to build his White House ballroom

CNBC: Trump bought as much as $5M in Axon stock before ICE sought $220 million Taser deal

The Supreme Court just reaffirmed what the Constitution has always said: birthright citizenship is a constitutional right. The President took an oath to uphold the Constitution — not rewrite it whenever it doesn't serve him. Newsflash, Donald: we live in a democracy — not a dictatorship.

Why can't Trump clean a pool, or throw a real 250th party? It's not (just) incompetence. It's also corruption.

I love horror. I watched this movie last night. It started off good but my stress 20 minutes in made me question my choice and consider popping a Xanax. Then it was just... weird. And by the end it was so terrible I couldn't look away. Choose the bear. Trust me. I need to block out this experience.

Well... would you look at that. After all those made-up lies about mail-in ballots, the Supreme Court just rejected this administration's latest attempt to silence voters. Y'all need to stop trying to suppress votes and start trying to earn them.

Wouldn't it be something if the bootlicking media and the moronic people of this godforsaken country were as outraged over Trump's taxpayer funded vanity projects as they were over Vice President Kamala Harris's purchase of French cookware with her own money.

I’m grateful that I have known hunger, poverty and loneliness in my 74 years. I will always remember living on instant mashed potatoes. I added mustard for flavoring. It’s made me a better human being, more empathetic to the needs of my brothers and sisters. We’re all in this together. Fuck greed!

Those alt gov accounts that arose after 2016 are grifters. One of the top posts yesterday was @altnoaa.bsky.social posting an AI image of a beluga whale "escaping captivity to reunite with her baby." In response to being told it was AI, the poster said AI is good, actually, for evoking emotions.

Dunno if I'll join tonight, #Dateline fam. Was already on the fence due to the subject of tonight's episode, and now we are having another severe weather event with 50+ mph straight line winds and more flooding. Gods willing it passes soon and the creek don't rise. Enjoy the night!

I know people IRL who identify as leftists & are genuinely decent. In fact, I used to call myself a Progressive until it started feeling dirty around 2016. That said, there are no "good leftists" - not until they aggressively eliminate Jew hate and anti-Blackness in their hateful ass movement. NONE.

We are about to have new neighbors at a recently flipped house that has been abandoned for a very long time & I fear the privacy & darkness I enjoy so much is coming to an end. 😭 Tired but going out in our very dark yard to listen to tree frogs & watch fireflies. My dog enjoys this activity, too. 💚

It’s the extremist ideologies from both sides that’ll be the undoing off us all. Some are starting to get it now others have placed their payments through their votes for later. How can you have sympathy for people on the other side of the world? And ignore the attacks on your neighbors.

Dear Mother, By the time you receive this letter, I hope our long hours of guarding the nation’s Reflecting Pool will be over. The camp has been struck by dysentery from the algae. I thought arresting people for no reason would prove more fun, but all I want now is to return home. Your loving son.

Cruelty is always the point with the GOP. Trump is not an anomaly or aberration; he is the poisonous flowering of all they've been working for since LBJ signed the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts.
