If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

No I just meant I hadn't heard. LOL I guess I was so annoyed with who was going, I didn't look up anything more.

Linda McConeghy Watson @thelindashow.bsky.social · 7h

Ah! I didn't hear that!

And how can they not merge after this, so what's the point of stalling the clues on the idol? #Survivor49

It literally should be, "Well I'm playing my idol. Who wants my vote?"

Glad Jake got to be there for the birth of his son! #Survivor49

So Jake has to be one of the two from this season in season 50, right? #Survivor49

Lake Placid is on. One of the funniest and mildly scary movies of the late 90s with dream boat Bill Pullman and my favorite movie line from Betty White, "If I had a dick, this is where I'd tell you to suck it."

Betty White saying, "If I had a dick, this is where I'd tell you to suck it."

I am over it but grateful I had one last time to float the day away.

Linda McConeghy Watson @thelindashow.bsky.social · 4d

October floating is unheard of around these parts but I was able to get in our pool today since it's 89° and all.

I'm getting gifted tomatoes from friends and family, so I spent the day yesterday making roasted tomato sauce. Such an easy way to knock out a lot of tomatoes and now I have a freezer full of sauce for the winter!

Cut up tomatoes, onion, garlic and herbs on a baking sheet.
