it you have the means to donate to food pantries right now please do!
They will need it. As you are donating also think about these items:
-gluten free
-low/ no salt
-vegan
-dairy free
-sugar free

This will help those with food allergies/ dietary restrictions for their health.

@aoc.bsky.social get people in front of the camera (phone/ photos/ stories/ interviews) and have them share how the insurance hikes will impact them directly. We all have insurance issues and it will continue to bond all of us and show who is and isn’t fighting for us.

Requiring a donation of $25.00 for a food pantry should not be allowed. Forcing those already in need to fund overhead is wild work. I will scream about the lack of resources in rural communities as a social worker outside of exploitive churches.

How’s a person supposed to schedule normal life activities with a rapture coming up in just a couple days?

Do you operate as normal? Make plans and just ghost everyone? Pay bills or just risk it?

And is the day adjustable at all!?

You know what have a good trip I’m good here. ✌️

On the left is a woman with long, light blonde hair, wearing a peach-colored dress. In the center, a woman with dark brown hair wears a light blue dress. On the right, a woman with dark brown, curly hair is dressed in a white dress. The women are depicted with their arms raised and dresses flowing, creating a sense of movement. In the top left corner, there is a cluster of white and pink flowers with green leaves, adding a decorative element to the image. The image is a collage of ten book covers arranged in a grid against a muted green background with floral designs. Each cover features different artistic styles and themes: "Sweet Vengeance" by Viano Oniomoh shows a romantic, shadowy scene with a woman embracing a figure with purple horns. "Kings and Monsters" by Clio Evans depicts a man in a black suit alongside a large bear, with swirling blue and red background elements. "Sink into Her" by Elaine J.

Indiana has 4.7M registered voters. 47% are republican, 28% democrat.

Of the 9 districts, 7 are red and 2 are blue. Seems about right.

But Trump needs more. The Governor may gerrymander the remaining 2 leaving democrats with no representation in the House.

Seem right to you?

Canadian friends, this is a request for help. Now that I'm staying in this country, and specifically in the Peg, I'm gonna need winter clothes. Winter clothes for a large person.

Men's winter coats are shorter. Women's winter coats are, I'm told, of lesser quality.

This is all bullshit.

The woman who fell in love with her psychiatrist…

I agree he should have transferred care but not for what she claims as mutual love and attraction, aka professionalism and boundaries, but because she was sexually harassing that man and he deserved safety.

July was a solid reading month for me. I was able to read a lot, and I made some big decisions as it pertains to my bookish accounts:
- closed my booktok account
-started a blog (still building the website)
-daughter had surgery
-my 1st book convention went up in 🔥due to the management company.
The image features a playful and colorful design with a collage of letters forming the words "monthly wrap up." Each letter originates from a different style or pattern, creating a patchwork effect. The background is a crumpled white surface with a blue border at the top. Decorative elements include sketched stars, a walrus wearing a crown, and a swirl beneath the word "UP." There are additional colorful star shapes on the right. The image features a collage titled "Books Read" with twelve book covers arranged in a 3x4 grid. At the top, there's a handwritten-style title, "Books Read," with a cut-out photo of a sloth on the left and two doodled hearts on the right, set against a light blue background. First Row: Filthy Rich Fae by Geneva Lee: A dark cover with large yellow text surrounded by red and white flowers. When Javi Dumped Mari by Mia Sosa: Features a man and woman standing back-to-back with a city skyline and pink sky. Glory Be by Danielle Arceneaux: Colorful, retro design with abstract shapes and patterns. Dear America: Notes of an Undocumented Citizen by Jose Antonio Vargas: Simple, bright yellow cover with handwritten-style black text. Second Row: What Happens in Amsterdam by Pearl Lynn Solomon: Pink cover with an illustrated couple kissing, surrounded by tulips. Zom Romcom by Olivia Dade: Purple cover depicting a whimsical illustration of a couple, with a zombie theme. Ms. V's Hot Girl Summer by A.H. Cunningham: Vibrant cover with tropical elements and a woman smiling. When the Tides Held the Moon by Vanessa Vida Kelley: Illustrated, vintage-style cover showing a woman on a ship with the moon. Third Row: Arush Avachat Arya Khanna's Bollywood Moment by A Novel: Bright pink cover with an illustration of a woman in traditional attire. Wicked Blood by Azalea Crowley: Dark cover with red roses and a mysterious pattern. Soulgazer by Maggie Parier: Depicts a man and woman with intense expressions, with a muted color scheme. A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping by Sangu Mandanna: Pastel-colored cover with a whimsical illustration of a witch and a house. "Books Read," featuring two book covers against a textured cream background with a blue top border. In the upper left corner, there is a small photo of a sloth on a branch. The title "Books Read" is written in bold, black font near the top center. Two rings in the pattern represent heart shapes on the upper right side. Below the title, two book covers are displayed. The first book cover on the left, "The Art of Scandal," shows a woman with red and turquoise accents. The second book cover, "Fear the Flames," is predominantly purple and gold with ornate designs. Below the book covers, there is the label "Re-Read" in black text. The overall composition is casual, with elements seeming to be pasted onto the background. The image is a page divided into two sections with a torn paper aesthetic, featuring book recommendations. At the top is a blue band with a cutout of a penguin on the right. Below, on a light background, the section is labeled “DNFs” in bold black text. Underneath, a single book cover titled "The North Wind" by Alexandria Warwick is displayed, featuring a dark blue and gold floral design. The lower section is labeled “Top Reads” with colorful star accents on either side. It showcases three books. On the left, "Dear America" by Jose Antonio Vargas, with a bright yellow cover and a fingerprint design. In the center, "When the Tides Held the Moon" by Vanessa Vida Kelley, featuring an illustration of a woman with red hair, moon, and waves. On the right, "What Happens in Amsterdam" by Rachel Lynn Solomon, with a couple embracing against a pink sky and tulips. Below the center book, the text reads "Buddy Read w/ Geena & Cassie." At the bottom right, there is the handle "@Sarah_TheBookishNerd."

I’m starting to think that some “romance” authors don’t respect the genre and just want to cash in on the genre being profitable.
