Now would be a good time to get three month supplies of your medications and medical device supplies.
For REAL. I’ve been talking about this stuff since high school civics class, only to be belittled. My parents lived in CA under Reagan and moved my family out of the state in the 90s. The Midwest did not want to hear about our experiences. Those that know history could see this coming.
I think those that have been calling this shit out since his first pres run are recentering on their own communities and letting the rest of the country figure it out on their own. I certainly am. I don’t want your quality of life depending on what state you were born in, but that is where we are.

I think there are other people who could swear her in if Johnson won't.
If Republicans can casually ignore precedent, so can Democrats.

Speaker Johnson has no right to stop duly elected representatives from taking office.

Call a press conference on the capitol steps, and swear in Democratic Representative-Elect Adelita Grijalva - NOW.
I’m caregiver for my abuser and it is awful. It definitely helps with introspection. I just learned what complex PTSD is.
And it is so sweet that her brain is still wired to wrap and give gifts 😊
It is so difficult. I’ve found giving education on transitioning to more care early helps the entire family. Sometimes turning the conversation to how it helps their loved ones will give independent elders more of a palatable reason to give up some freedoms.
When you have an elder in your life that is starting to show signs of memory loss, it is important to explore their medical and end of life preferences NOW. They are tough talks, but worth having. Filling out a POLST with their doctor is a good start.

If you’re touring an assisted living facility and it smells a bit off. Leave. It literally is that simple. If they can’t provide basic sanitation, they won’t provide basic care in a quality way.

Do you have an elderly family member? Have them put their financial assets in a MAPT trust now vs later. They need their assets in a trust five years before they mentally decline. This will greatly help streamline processes down the road when they pass or need to be placed in assisted living.
Wait, but is this real? Cause I want to watch it.

That Trump-Putin Summit in Alaska played out like an episode of VEEP.
Awful humans. Also, absolutely dig your profile pic and name 🥰
Frio has a whole collection of insulin cooling wallet carriers, might be worth having a few on hand for a go bag. Just saying.
Ways I judge a good person…do they tip well? Do they treat people in food service with respect? Do they put their grocery cart in the designated spots or leave it where there car was? Do they treat animals humanely?

Minnesota just ranked in the top 5 best states to live.

By investing in the things that matter - economic opportunity, health and safety, kids and families – we’re focusing on improving people’s lives.
Do you have a parent with #alzheimers or #dementia ? Are you their caregiver? Have you started the journey of planning for the future?

Following public backlash, the military is reversing its decision to halt the distribution of critical weather forecast data. The Navy’s Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center confirmed it will continue to release information from the
Got through that journey…but then how do you get your book in front of an actual publisher?
Soooooooo….how many lefties will go work for ice and just happen to wear secret body cams and mics? I’ve heard the background checks will be paltry. Maybe time for some under cover shit.

Trump shrugged off today’s disappointing job numbers by calling them “phony” and accusing the Bureau of Labor Statistics of manipulating data to hurt him politically. His solution? Fire whoever gave him numbers he didn’t like.

I've been thinking of writing a thing and what I've noticed is that a large part of what I would use to write the piece is no longer easily accessible. Tweets deleted, accounts gone, media outlets out of business, links rotted, companies/projects that no longer exist and didn't archive etc. etc.
