We should be able to agree that there’s nothing wrong with someone on SNAP treating themselves or their kids once in awhile
The idea that if you’re poor you must never have a “treat” reinforces the notion that poverty is a choice and a failing
It’s neither, and we shouldn’t police anyone’s food

FACTS about SNAP:
-35% to white people (largest share)
-90% to people born in 🇺🇸
-86% to households with kids
-70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)

Kristi Noem is a liar and a dog killer.
Ahead of the 1st shutdown of US food aid to hungry Americans in 60 years, some of the 200,000 Little Free Library locations are converting into food pantries. Thanks @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social
REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”
Stephen Miller is joining other high ranking regime members in military housing.
The tax payers will now subsidize his home AND personal security.
No money for food. Lots of money for Miller.
Perhaps if they weren’t about to starve 42 million Americans they wouldn’t have such security concerns?

As a disability advocate, I think it’s appalling how many people are fine letting disabled folks starve because they think “survival of the fittest” means we should die.
But here’s the thing… no one should be starving.
The richest country in the world can afford to feed everyone.

I just don’t think we’re freaking out enough about this SNAP cut. I have spent my whole career working with people who rely on SNAP for food. People who work multiple jobs. Who have kids. What do you think happens when 1/8th of the population can’t buy food anymore? Everything is going to collapse.
We all know a hungry child can't learn.
But Republicans' government shutdown is threatening SNAP and Head Start—forcing parents out of work and kids to go hungry.
This hurt and harm is undeniable—and it's 100% preventable.

It's time for most of America to move clocks back on Sunday.
Here's what happens to your body when clocks 'fall back' an hour
It's time for most of America to move clocks back on Sunday. Daylight saving time ends in the U.S. at 2 a.m. local time, which means setting your clock back an hour.
