Yesterday was a double whammy. A dog I love dearly died. And then my fortune cookie was empty. I could not bear to look at any news.
Probably common knowledge for BlueSky folks, but well kept secret by Republicans.

I haven’t been able to stop thinking about her since this afternoon.
The DSA and Communism are very different things. Rather than attacking the DSA for being attacked, explain the differences. "Vote Blue no matter who" means "no matter who."

The US government just made a land deal with the world's first trillionaire. Not a sale. A trade. Apparently, that's how we do things now. 715 acres of the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge — built by Congress in 1979 to protect one of the most biodiverse wildlife corridors left in ⬇️

Hussein said he was in disbelief that he was told to convert or leave — for the first time in his life — at a Republican convention with the tagline, “Unity drives victory.” [This is beyond me. The whole thing]
