Gardening is therapeutic. Sowing seeds is an act of radical defiance. Garden and sow seeds more.
Heh, made this last night for the first time. My teen gave it two thumbs up. It was easy to make for sure. Also, 3 mouthfuls later, my husband and I could not eat another bite. Too rich for the adults. More leftovers for the teens. Add chili crisp or rooster sauce as a condiment.
“Easiest and best mac and cheese I’ve ever made!” Julia Moskin’s brilliant hack for a rouxless macaroni and cheese? Cottage cheese.
Creamy Macaroni and Cheese Recipe
There are two schools of thought about macaroni and cheese: Some like it crusty and extra-cheesy (here’s our recipe), while others prefer it smooth and creamy But most people are delighted by any homemade macaroni and cheese It is light years ahead of the boxed versions

KERNEN: It's like Republicans are in the wilderness about what to do to fix our healthcare
MIKE JOHNSON: Actually, we're not. We're not. We've got pages and pages and pages of ideas of how to reform healthcare. You can't rip Obamacare out at the roots. It's too deeply ingrained now."

#NIH is hanging by a thread. The #CDC has been decimated. #RFK Jr. and Russell #Vought are psychopaths--I don't say this frivolously--they are cold, calculating, inflicting violence on millions through public policy. It is where we are right now. These men are not normal. 1/

"Republicans are trying to recruit and give bonuses to ICE right now..." How about tax dollars to recruit and give bonuses to teachers, counselors, school nurses, and paraprofessionals? Its BTS. Fund schools, not concentration camps. Disbelief students are growing up in this dystopia. 😢
Jennings: Democrats every day are calling ICE the gestapo.
Kasparian: Well, they do act like gestapo… I don’t want my tax dollars going to that garbage.

Truth.
The GOP's Medicaid-busting tax scheme is filled with poison pills antithetical to the values of our people. So I wrote a proper preamble for their big, ugly bill.

When she finally returned, she told me she had lost her Medicaid coverage and couldn’t afford her drops. As a result, she had gone blind in one eye.

This law would allow a guardian to isolate the disabled person from their loved ones. Guardianships should be made less restrictive, not more.

This is such a lie. DOE and OCR are the very LAST guard rails for defending students with disabilities. We should be bolstering with more funding for DOE. MAGA/Republicans are stealing from marginalized children and kicking them in the teeth. Evil and shameful.
FOX NEWS: The Department of Education is tasked with protecting disabled students across America. How are you going defend this?
SEN. JIM BANKS: I think it's simple. That will be done at the state level.
