Former long-time zookeeper, current small business owner. Social Democrat. I love animals, I don't like people and I have a husband who suffers from cPTSD. Well, we all suffer from his ptsd.
Michigan Democrats chose Abdul El-Sayed because he’s a fighter willing to stand up to the tyrant in the Oval Office. Corporate Democrats like Chuck Schumer aren't up to the task because they won’t bite the corporate hands that feed them.

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.
This gets under my skin. Why make an exceptionally UNhealthy version of your products to sell to Americans? wtf
Diane@dianesf.bsky.social · 16h agoIn the 1950s we had 700 different chemicals in our food Today we have over 10,000 in our food In Europe, they only have 700 still today. Kelloggs makes the safer Canadian version and the American version. Two different options, same manufacturer. Americans have been sold out sadly.
ICYMI last night, DHS is currently being fined every day for contempt of court until it coughs up the cell phone records of officers involved in immigration stops in L.A. last year that looked like racial profiling rather than reasonable cause. short thread -->
Gabriel Malor@gabrielmalor.bsky.social · yesterdayFed. judge holds DHS in civil contempt of court for refusing "intentionally and not in good faith" to provide plaintiffs with phone images they intend to use to prove DHS was racially profiling people arrested in Los Angeles without reasonable suspicion. Order from July 28, unsealed today.
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳
Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

oh man, please let the monster allow me to name our new puppy, Jesse. I could finally be Jesse's girl! Pleeaasseee 🧡
Why do we bother obeying the law and paying our taxes when the President does neither? He is playing us all for fools!
If it wasn’t for truck drivers, we’d starve. If it wasn’t for sanitation workers, we’d be overrun by rats and disease. If it wasn’t for construction workers, we wouldn’t have roads and the economy would collapse. Just because a job isn’t glorious doesn’t mean it’s not existentially important.
They’re just showing how much suffering they can squeeze out of people who already don’t have much left. And the worst part is they’re proud of it. The cruelty isn’t a side effect - it’s the whole damn point. Read here: prospect.org/2026/07/31/t...
More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
“I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!” NETWORK (1976) In a decade littered with cinematic masterpieces, Paddy Chayefsky & Sidney Lumet’s movie is right up there at the top of the list. #PeterFinch

These people are mad at Dr. Fauci because he told them to wear a mask during a deadly pandemic.
The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.
This is bullshit! I hope they win that suit, or at least get the deed upheld. We have considered donating our land to the city requiring that it be a park/nature preserve area when we die. This is the reason we balk at the thought.
The Liberal BoJack@thelibbojack.bsky.social · 3d agoA Texas city allegedly paid a family farm $10 in exchange for land meant to be used for a park and then sold the land to a data center developer for $10 million.The family is now suing for the deed to be honored and the park to be built.

Colorado River. Humans are the most selfish, ignorant & destructive species on earth. If you have children/grandchildren, you might want to get engaged & be proactive in working with your government officials to save what is left of our natural resources. They will thank you ~
