Family first. Gardening is my passion. Digging in the dirt my therapy.
He had been in the country for 20 years, had a work permit, and leaves behind a 12 year old US citizen daughter. We need legislation for a truth and reconciliation commission. Why this hasn’t been introduced yet by a progressive Dem is completely beyond me.
This is Loki, our Maine Coon and the cat of our hearts, and he went missing today. We have no idea how he got out, but he’s an elder, indoor cat, the whole region’s in an intense heat wave, and we’re really scared. I doubt I have any followers here in Martinez, CA, but if so, help? It’s SO hot
7 mo into Covid-19 after grueling 24hr caring for child with the disease, who survived. Showered at hosp, returned to office & informed staff, wasn't retiring the next mo, as had planned. Photo of that moment. This is my "diary". Nobody can change the reality of pandemic for those who lived it...
Epstein files aren't worth seeing or discussing, but Fauci's personal diary...? THERE's our new distraction. I'd listen to this remarkable woman.
The nearly 26,500-acre Fox fire prompted the closure; as of Monday morning it is 0% contained. https://mrf.lu/2chS5

Epstein survivors released this video today urging senators to block the confirmation of Todd Blanche for Attorney General. They’re trying to get to 20,000 signatures on their petition to send a message to the Senate. ujoin.co/campaigns/45...
One of the quiet bright moments of lockdown was Sam Neill serenading us on the ukulele. This type of tenderness feels rare nowadays, how lucky we were. Thank you for everything. ❤️❤️❤️

They flat murdered this man in front of his daughter in her Bluey pajamas. There is no hell hot enough.
Fifty Shades of Whey@fiftyshadesofwhey.bsky.social · 3w agoJoan Sebastian Guerrero had his whole life ahead of him. This is a national tragedy. Protests have erupted across Biddeford.
The two ICE agents who murdered a civilian in Biddeford, Maine today. Let's make them famous.
This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
What’s happening in Suffolk, VA is chilling. Is this standard restraint, or is it a strategy of high-lethality violence? This needs to be seen. ⚠️

McConnell is likely braindead and they’re hoping to conceal it through the August 3 special election deadline. It’s important to make the story so big that they can’t
Coming up at 11 am ET, I'm going there. New allegations against Platner have upended the Maine Senate race. I'll explain why his abusive refusal to withdraw without certain terms could cost Dems the Senate, and why many of the voices who dismissed earlier allegations youtube.com/live/NWfb2y7...
BREAKING: New Platner Allegation Throws Maine Senate Race Into CHAOS

The two best candidates to take over for Platner are probably Shenna Bellows and Troy Jackson. The two cross endorsed each other, and eventual nominee Hannah Pingree, in the governor's primary last month. Here are their campaign ads over the last year to give you a sense of them
Under Maine law, Platner would have until 5 PM ET on July 13—a week from today—to withdraw his name and still allow his party to nominate a replacement. Democrats would then have to do so by July 27. legislature.maine.gov/statutes/21-...

Every commentator who shit the bed on Platner by claiming that the three women who previously came forward were a smear job MUST apologize publicly to their readership and viewers. He’s a rapist. He’s an abuser. Many of us knew it from the jump, but you wanted him so badly you ignored FACTS.
