Check out @grahamformaine.bsky.social. He looks like a fantastic choice for Mainers!

He’s on the move to meet with as many folks as he can. One day. Five hundred miles. Three town halls in small town Maine. Four hundred people.

He vows not to leave a person or place behind.

Meanwhile, russia keeps attacking Ukraine’s critical infrastructure.

Today: an oil depot in Pryluky (north),
rail and energy facilities,
a thermal power plant.

In Donetsk region (east),
a coal enrichment plant was also attacked.

Winter is coming. I’ll keep you updated on its ‘arrival.’

I fully support @jollygoodginger.bsky.social in what he's saying here. Masked men kidnapping children off the street isn't OK. Maybe they are ice maybe they are just kidnappers. Who knows. We need to do better for the children they shouldn't be kidnapped leaving school.

Very cool 😒

Blue Cross of #Idaho has decided the GI practice that has provided my care for +/- 20 years is now “out of network.”

In their medical “wisdom,” they think having to drive 50 minutes after bowel prep, ffs, makes more sense than a 15 minute drive.

I pay $910/month for this 🐎💩

wait ... is this why they can't answer a direct question? it's not part of the plenary authority.

Here's the short definition of Plenary Authority.

Plenary authority means complete, absolute, and unqualified power to act on a particular issue without significant limitations.

No Miller didn't stroke out like Mitch.

He just told everyone what their next plan is. This falls right in line with the rest of the regime's actions since the start of the coup in 2016.

Plenary Authority. Sounds like something a tyrannical fascist regime would invoke for control.

“Changing leaves” ✏️ ❤️💙 #Caitvi #StillFantastic #Inktober

Colored pencil drawing of a maple leaf divided into red and blue halves, filled with intricate gear and jewel-like patterns inspired by Arcane’s Vi and Caitlyn. The leaf rests on beige paper with red and blue pencils beside it, symbolizing change and duality for the ‘changing leaves’ theme.

The current metric of the season is how thick the ice is on the water bowl in the morning.

A whole family of MAGAts out here in the world harassing an 80-year-old woman.

Keep an eye out for the cool grannies and the pop pops of the world.

You see something, say something to them. Stop letting MAGATs bully our neighbors! Especially our older friends.

Kindness still matters.

The United States of America is the melting pot for people from all around the world.
So every person here is a Heritage American.
Anyone saying otherwise is absolutely wrong.
