Doing a tad better today; not weeping constantly. Just remembered how my late husband, G, who passed from ALS at 63, would answer 99% of my asks for anything, "As you wish." Crying again.

Still in a state of shock trying to process the tragic loss of one of the most gifted men in the entertainment industry & his wife when the Embarrassment-in-Chief disgraces common human decency with this repulsive, deranged statement.

Undecided voter: “How can someone like you convince me that my vote matters”

James Talarico: “They wouldn't be trying so hard to stop you from voting if your vote didn't matter — Texas is one of the hardest places to vote in the entire country. That is by design”

The Supreme Court’s approval of Texas’s gerrymandering is another blow to fair representation. Congress should set national standards to stop the antidemocratic practice. bit.ly/4a7H8d8
Supreme Court Hammers Away at Democracy
With its latest gerrymandering decision, the Court is creating a political system primed for distortion and deeper division.

📜Happy Bill of Rights Day to all of us! President Franklin Roosevelt established this day to commemorate the ratification of the first ten amendments to the US Constitution.
⚖The Bill of Rights spells out the fundamental rights and civil liberties guaranteed to those in the US by our government.

My beloved and I went to a light display tonight presently showing in the San Francisco Botanical Garden. Given the harshness of what today has held, being surrounded by light cutting through the darkness seemed a meaningful place to be.

I saw his interview on the project and thought about it first thing when I heard of their killing. I am grief stricken beyond measure - and for the other victims of violence this past few days.
Just finished Fugelsangs book ! Awesome and exactly what is needed

Javier, our new CEO, wanted to thank everyone for a fun and motivating first week. You all have made his transition process enjoyable. He has much to do but insisted on relaying that his initial numbers indicate that the dogs are all very good and will likely continue to be ❤️

Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.

BREAKING: DOJ has failed to indict Letitia James for a THIRD time! It's like Christmas around here!
Do it. Take these to another grand jury. Then a 2nd and a 3rd, until we get a breaking news story about how much you suck at this. And if you do manage to get a true bill, we can watch you lose again in pretrial motions. Do it! I live to watch you lose! www.politico.com/news/2025/12...
DOJ deciding whether to seek new Comey, James indictments
The department could forgo an appeal of Lindsey Halligan’s disqualification and instead seek to bring new charges against James Comey and Letitia James.

Your data while shopping online can be used to vary prices for the same item to you and each customer shopping in the same site, as recently Instacart has been shown to do.

Senator Gallego is attempting to outlaw this practice, which should be illegal already.

Watch this video for details
Senator Ruben Gallego has introduced Senate legislation to outlaw surveillance pricing.

Surveillance pricing is yet another way for corporations to pull one over on you.

Exactly
People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

A majority of people voted for a sleezy real estate developer (oxymoronic) who bankrupted his own CASINOS where the bank ALWAYS wins to run our economy and trade policies????? Lunacy and we are seeing the consequences daily

It's been almost three weeks now and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔
