We've been off social media while dealing with the demise of a raccoon in the chimney of our rental home. Slow action by the landlord, 100 degee summer days, and the need to find new housing in a crazy rental market has slowed down our engagement. Pro tip: chimney caps. Have they found Mitch?🦝
Okay! So hello. My name is Allison Gill. For the last 9 years, you’ve known me as Mueller, She Wrote. I used to have to be anonymous. But not anymore. So, hello world!
Changed my name from Mueller, She Wrote to my actual name, Allison Gill. Hoping I can get my blue check back. @joshpetri.bsky.team can you help?
Great news!

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.
Some really encouraging Senate polls… 📍Georgia 🔵 Jon Ossoff: 56% 🔴 Mike Collins: 43% 📍North Carolina 🔵 Roy Cooper: 53% 🔴 Michael Whatley: 44% 📍Ohio 🔵 Sherrod Brown: 53% 🔴 Jon Husted: 45% 📍Iowa 🔵 Josh Turek: 50% 🔴 Ashley Hinson: 46% Keep organizing. Keep fighting.
Just an appreciation post for this guy. The COVID pandemic would have been far worse without Dr. Fauci's decades of experience as guidance through it. Had he been working under an adult president and not the child that presided over 2020, he would have saved even more lives without having to contend
so tired of it all..... november cannot come quickly enough.

The second Trump administration is defined by centralised power and a hubristic pursuit of personal legacy.

There have been 4,500 cases of measles reported in children, fueled by vaccine hesitancy, which is more cases than were reported from 2020 to 2024 combined. The data doesn’t lie. But the Trump administration does.
If you’re watching Fauci’s testimony remember that science isn’t an ideology. It doesn’t lie. It evolves. COVID-19 was a once-in-a-century pandemic caused by a brand-new virus, recommendations changed because the evidence changed. That’s not deception. That’s how it works.

Elon Musk is a neo-Nazi, but most of the political and media establishment give him a pass—and continue to use his propaganda website. Incredible piece from @jamellebouie.net with the receipts.

We can verify the daily physical status of a specific Seattle raccoon but apparently we're completely unable to determine whether a United States Senator is alive or dead.

The guy that they want you to be terrified of (Mamdani) is making sure kids in NYC are fed all summer and people have access to cheaper groceries, all while they take food away from kids getting SNAP. Just sayin, feeding kids should make you the good guy.
