According to Fox News, if you are a racist Young Republican you are still a "kid" when you are 34, but if you are an Epstein victim, you are an adult when you're 15.

A relative told me that I'm "a better mom to your dogs than your own parents ever were for you." She's not wrong, but I would add my parents were my example of who I didn't want to be. Good parenting--for pets or humans--is a choice. People can choose to equip themselves to parent well, or not.

I've had a small veggie garden for over 10 years, with heat waves that required frequent watering, but none that lasted as long as this year's record. By the time July set in, even the tomatoes were giving up the ghost. But yes, please, assure me that climate change is a "hoax." Uh-huh.

If you're a survivor, pleas know that you can sit this one out. You can take breaks if you need to. Take care of yourself. There are many of us who can step up. We need all of us to survive this.

This is why so many of us say, "Epstein didn't kill himself." If it walks like a duck .... etc., etc., etc. Also, "often the simplest explanation is the most likely."
Michael Wolff suggests in an email (in 2015) that if Trump were to say in public that he had never been to Epstein’s house or on his plane, Epstein would have leverage over him.

Which…means that Trump was at his house and on his plane and that Epstein had the receipts to prove it. So.

A reminder that there is a lot of ongoing litigation around the drawing (and redrawing) of congressional maps. My firm is currently involved in more than a dozen cases in 10 states: AL, CA, GA, LA, MO, NC, NY, TX, VA and WI.

The gentlemen in this photo had a lot to do with who I turned out to be. I am forever grateful for their example, and even more grateful they got to come HOME. I don't want to know who I would have been without them.

Happy Veterans Day to all who served.

I’m equal parts furious and exhausted. Let me finish this lovely bottle of Pike Road Pinot, get a full night’s sleep, and get back in the fray in the morning. Peace, love, and solidarity, dear friends. We rise again tomorrow.

I don't even know what to say anymore. I'm off to find whatever methods I can to help those in my community who are most negatively impacted by the Orange Idiot and the Compromised Republicans and the "What in the Effing Hell Are You Doing" Democrats who just rolled over for no good reason. WTF?
November 10, 2025 at 2:00 AM
Please forgive the all caps here: "THIS IS WHAT WE EFFING EXPECT OF OUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES!!!" Returning to normal capitalization now: For the love of all that is holy, will you PLEASE effing FIGHT?!?!? If that's not in your DNA, then resign and let us vote in someone who WILL.
This is really good to see: Miki Sherrill just put out a statement sharply criticizing the Senate Dems' pending cave in the government shutdown, ripping it as "malpractice" and a betrayal of the people who are "counting on us to fight for them." Sherrill knows what drove her victory. Wake up, Dems.

We're on our own. From here on out, my goal is this: I will use what resources I have to take care of me and my family and to take care of those in my community who need help they can't get otherwise. May I recommend we all do that. In unison. At least until we can elect Dems with SPINES.
The Trump administration’s unwillingness to fund SNAP is leaving working families scrambling to figure out where their next meal is coming from. It’s unacceptable and preventable. www.thecut.com/article/snap...

A GIF that demonstrates the kind of Dem candidates I will for now, and likely for the forseeable future, support: (I can't believe I believed you AGAIN. FFS, get a backbone and some grit or GTFO. We'll get it done without you. F**k.)

Watching "The Mountainhead" on HBO Max for something like the 5th time. Anyone paying attention will quickly arrive at conclusions as to the real-life characters being played out on screen. You could easily swap one for another at a dozen points along the way, but yeah. It's pretty much dead on.

What (and I can't emphasize the next part of this question enough) the actual F*CK?! 🤬
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Senile Satan is straight-up lying again. After away food and healthcare from millions - this is his go-to defense. Obama has never made any profits or royalties from the ACA, ever.

Still sporting recovery shoes on both feet after fracturing my left 5th metatarsal and right big toe. (long story 🙄) And while I appreciate drive-up/pick-up services offered by so many stores, I just want to walk my own damned self into the store. I hate feeling hampered or limited in any way. Argh.

This is, unsurprisingly, nonsensical. Is he suggesting eliminating health insurance and giving people a few thousand dollars instead? And then when they get a cancer diagnosis they just go bankrupt?

He is so unserious. That's why we are shut down and Americans know it.

Speaker Johnson is officially keeping the House in recess again next week. This will be the eighth consecutive week the House has been out of session. The chamber hasn't met since Sept. 19. Adelita Grijalva, who was elected on Sept. 23, has not been sworn in.
