Monochrome shot of the New Orleans lakefront with its stepped seawall and signature lamp posts. Beyond, the motion-blurred form of a sailboat moves across the water with the causeway beyond.

Can’t believe I have to say this, but in Minnesota you will continue to have the freedom to get your COVID and flu shots.

That’s awesome. You should probably leave before he gets home though.

I hope so, but plenty so far seem pleased to defend the pedo. We will see.

So quick to cry when people don’t respond well to their petty antics.

Erockian🅔🅐🅞 @erockian00.bsky.social · 13h

This was actually triggered by a lovely photo I put a like on. Then I noticed comments were disabled, so I took my like back. What, their photo is too good for my praise, is that it?

One exception 😆

But yeah, I just said the same thing basically.

Exactly. And if you have a hot take, it’s fine, but prepare to be challenged.

I’m going to stop putting likes on posts with comments disabled. This is social media, not a bulletin board.

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

Seen in my Walgreens app. The pettiness and dishonesty of this administration is staggering.

CDC notice which says:

The Trump Administration is working to reopen the government for the American people. Mission-critical activities of CDC will continue during the Democrat-led government shutdown. Certain federal government activities have ceased due to a lack of appropriated funding. During the government shutdown, only web sites supporting excepted functions will be updated. As a result, the information on this website may not be up to date and the agency may not be able to respond to inquiries.
