He gets dental wipes, a kidney supplement (mostly just precautionary), and arthritis shots. Love this for both of us!

Thanks to @sebhar.bsky.social and Kyle’s breeder I’m going to have a jar of Kyle’s testicles. And if you’re like “ew why” it’s costing me like $600 to have them removed and I might as well keep something that expensive.

To me a good cover is about making a song sound like it's your own song and Devo is perfect at that.

At about 350 and court is on Thursday. I need to come up with as much as possible before then

Spirit Halloween Dani 🎃 (REINSTATE LINK) @djamiempls.meatjacker.social · 6d

I have only about 200 of this which leaves about 3.1k and need to knock as much of this out before court on the 16th so I don't lose my housing.

Okay somewhat decent news.
I actually only owe 3.3k in total and they said they're going to let the courts know I've made payments and we will reach on some kind of payment plan.
So still urgent but slightly less urgent

As usual, Tennessee Holler lifts video without crediting creator. No location or date. No ID of person shot in the head w/less lethals. All findable!

By removing context, Tennessee Holler damages activism and makes misinfo more likely.

I’m glad, but make no mistake: rerouting funding to an organization means they are washing their hands of administering this.

Meaning if there’s abuse, they will not be investigating. Meaning this is yet another step towards privatization of education, particularly for disabled students.

NEW: Following public outcry, the Department of Education has reversed its decision to cut funding for students who have both hearing and vision loss, opting instead to reroute grants to an organization that will provide funding to these students.

"measure twice, cut once" is such a good summary of it, though! Definitely think we could use more of that generally, as a society, across situations.

With the holidays upon us, don't give to Salvation Army. Not even change. It's a scumbag "charity" run by anti-gay zealots.

Habitat for Humanity is great. Your local Food Bank is great.

So many "charities" are for-profit scams. Use Charity Navigator to vet them. www.charitynavigator.org

Fascist Dem Tracker @fascistdemtracker.bsky.social · 3d

Fun fact about the Salvation Army: they use a form of substance use treatment called work therapy. Oh, and by treatment, I mean they have people who have been convicted of drug charges work for their stores & warehouses in exchange for room, board, around a $1 a week, and minimal actual therapy.
