It’s important to understand that when 1.2 million Americans are dying from a disease, any government action is excessive and tyrannical, but if a dozen trans women want to play soccer no government action can go far enough
I have, with my own eyes, watched my tax dollars in the form of missiles as they hit buildings inhabited by civilians. I'd much prefer subsidizing a grocery story I don't use.
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
so the problem with pickling cucumbers you grow yourself is that you are basically pickling every few days all summer long. Today’s batch:

“Transgender youth face some of the highest rates of suicide risk of any group in the U.S. These are not LGBTQ+ youth specialized services if they exclude transgender young people. Full stop.”
“Just days after the administration cut these life-saving services, we sprang into action, launching our Emergency Lifeline Campaign for LGBTQ+ Youth. In total, our campaign raised more than $20.4 million from an estimated 26,000 supporters.” www.thetrevorproject.org/blog/the-tru...
NEW FROM ME: A frenzy of cruel and unusual ICE flights over the last few days suggests the Trump admin is ratcheting up its ethnic cleansing campaign. And it may be increasingly desperate to find willing collaborators. My breakdown: gillianbrockell.com/frenzy-of-cr...

Today I’m working in asset management data tables, and one of the columns is: Cuurent_rem_ace_basis And you know in my head that’s the “current remix ace of base” Let’s see if I can manage to not let that out of my head when I’m talking to the finance lady…
Shit might be calming down, AND it was only 84° today. Just need a couple more days of normal, healthy animals and I’ll start to breathe easier.
Grace is meant to be retired from taking kittens and cats because she has zero money or time, but hahahaha, she has kittens and cats everywhere right now. If you'd like to help with desexing, I added a donation to my throne. throne.com/veronicafoale

If you're in Australia, I can give you Illoura Animal Refuge's bank details for a direct transfer. Given there's currently $13 in the account for feeding and desexing of strays, anything helps! (Ginny and Ernie belong to Illoura)

Last night before bed I was watching those reaction videos to “old” songs from the 70s-1999, and the pair ”reacting” to the cranberries song, Zombie, repeatedly said it was a protest song about a war, the civil war in Ireland. As a product of the US school system, I can say this: WTAF?!?
Last night was the first night I was done with animal chores before 11pm. I was in bed and lights out by 11:30Ish. Maybe things are starting to calm down!
How did I survive the 90s without knowing Oasis sang Wonderwall…?

In addition to repairing the gates, I'm also trying to MOVE the goats to a new fenced area as fast as possible...which is so much work. Also all the goats are on daily meds, AND because it's 95+ degrees IN THE SHADE, I'm spending triple the time doing well checks and refreshing water/ice.
I’m having to redo vast sections of goat fencing that I slapped together several years ago as a “temporary fix” until I put in the full fence and is this called goat tech debt?
Pro gardening tip: When searching for diy melon slings, add “for the garden” before you click “search” on your favorite internet search engine.
My very very hot take is that outhouses are better in the winter than in the summer.
I just spent 1.5 hours searching the woods for ducks who were already in their kennel.
