Happy Gotcha Day for SuperDog Rex! A wild heart pup who adores Beloved Son, reveres Husband, & considers me his Adventure Pal. Tiny rural shelter conned me to put Rex in my car. Tied up in a backyard for 2 yrs, ≈year at the shelter, now the best hiking bud ever. Who’s a good boy? Yes! You are!

Across the bottom are three smaller pics of the dig: playing in the snow, sitting in a pile of autumn leaves, sitting in the grass next to a stream looking away.

I grew up in this district.Newt Gingrich used to represent it.Lucy Bath who won the seat in 2019 after her son was murdered by a white vigilante,now represents it.It regularly votes democratic.Mostly due to multiracial groups of women who got organized in 2016.I expect this will cause quite a stir.

Another reference thread, this one different from the usual vein: I found out that a lot of people don't have a hospital bag, or know how to put one together. (I have this in convenient long form over on Tumblr: www.tumblr.com/omgshifterca...)

Hey so uhhhhh that Boston Globe story about the lesbian bar relaxing its covid rules is an *absolute fucking hit piece* targeting the disabled, chronically ill, and covid-conscious and it would be great if folks sharing and joking about it could recognize that framing.

I'm in a matching mood. Right now this fundraiser stands at $1535. I'm in to match -- get it up to 2035 tonight and it will exhaust my $500 match. Double your money with the filthy lucre paid to a BigLaw partner who works for the ultra wealthy and big corporations.
