I did that for an older lady in a wheelchair and her caregiver. The lady was wearing a full body poncho, and her help was wearing a disposable raincoat. The rain was sporadic and the latter was drenched. I couldn’t help but thought of my MIL. So I walked with them, shading them with my umbrella.☔️

Friends, we're ok
I'm on my way to the office
No sirens so far what's strange
I think dirty russian scum are stockpiling the missiles for another massive strike
I've water, charging station is full
We all are ready

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Rebecca. Just a friend, but one of the most beautiful women I've ever met and I'm just in awe of her brains and beauty and how kind she is.

one thing we can never allow to happen again is making someone president who is rich enough to fund endless frivolous lawsuits

Apparently, they don’t hand out a Nobel Peace Prize to those who negotiated a ceasefire they had sabotaged a year ago just to get elected.

Alex Jones is no longer of use to Trump so the Supreme Court gets to operate like an actual Supreme Court. All Trump’s toadies need to remember that.

Over 700,000 southern Arizonans still don’t have representation in Congress, more than three weeks after we elected @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Democracy means honoring the will of the people. Speaker Johnson must do the right thing and swear her in so she can get to work.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

This should be considered everywhere. They are kidnapping, abusing, harassing and threatening people who have rights. Every single one of them have rights and they are ignored. What they’re doing is unconstitutional and illegal.
Payback will come.

Thank yourself for practicing self-care today.

And if you haven't practiced self-care today, do something caring for yourself right now!

Then thank yourself.

Give yourself a loving gift and express and experience gratitude to your Self for giving it.

SHARE if you stand with Letitia James! Because I do!
SHARE if you are also FEARLESS!
SHARE if you think Trump is using the DOJ to retaliate against James for upholding the law!

#FungiFriday Aminata version! Going over now but I couldn't resist a look at the fly agaric, one had had all its spots washed off in the rain! Plus very strongly coloured blusher, one looking like a chocolate biscuit! #mushrooms #fungi #Lancashire
