Good morning. I have two big bills coming up. Both are due this week:
one tomorrow for $50 and one for $150. I need $200 total, and hope to make that today. If anyone could help, I’d be grateful. Thanks for reading.

Good. Even if this doesn’t work, it’s time to go on offense.

Farmers grow what they grow because of farm policy.

We don’t need all the soy and corn that we grow, but those are the commodities that receive subsidies and markets.

If we want something better, if we want to heal the Earth and grow food, now is the time to do it.

Bonny the Tabby Mama Cat, Honeybean the Small Torby Cat, and Clementine the Chonky Tuxedo Cat laying in a cuddle Puddle on the back of the big couch.

And now for something completely different, my right hand in a black fiberglass cast, which has my pinkie and ring finger bound together, making a lot of things more difficult this month.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.
