Oh GREAT! 😑 Now Kristi Noem will be Canada’s and other North and South American countries’ problem. Of course her stellar performance as Homeland Security Secretary has proven her more than capable of managing trump’s dream team taking control of the Americas

I was a protesting, union, journeyman machinist feminist single mom who got passed over for all sorts of opportunities because of not toeing the line. It can be pretty harsh to hear over and over that I ruined the world after helping to get legislation passed for affordable daycare & equal pay

Comma comma chameleon! Remember presidents who had basic literacy skills? This one isn’t capable of even understanding the concept.

β€œHe Could Be Impeached.” Donald Trump’s Base Revolts Over War With Iran β€” Vanity Fair MAGA leaders are expressing dismay and anger at the president, who campaigned on isolationism and

Things that make you go πŸ€” hmmm!

Charlie Kirk spoke out against Lindsey Graham’s calls for regime change in Iran. Shortly afterwords, Kirk was assassinateod. Kind of convenient since he would be leading the charge against Trump’s Epstein Distraction War

And he’s on trial for crimes against humanity! Kind of makes you hopeful that it’s training ground for donald trump’s trial.

Even when they do, it’s always in safe, cushy positions.

I’m going to trust you on that. But that scene was strangely erotic. And, for the time, it was probably pushing censorship rules. Especially William Shatner

I grew up being horribly allergic to wool and lots of other stuff. Now that I’ve outgrown that, it feels like a superpower to envelop myself in wool every chance I get.
I also love my antique HBC blankets. I figure my ancestors worked hard to trade for those things, I’m going to cherish them.

Went to a neighbourhood party last night and we were outnumbered by the dogs that tagged along. And they also out charmed us!

I save up my holey merino wool clothes to repurpose the good parts into other stuff. I bet you could make an interesting patchwork scarf with the pieces πŸ€”

You’ll want a really long narrow scarf that wraps around and around. Then as you need to, you can pull open the mouth opening if it starts to get too much condensation

We wrapped scarves around our foreheads and then around our faces so that just your eyes peep through. It’s also a great way to make an instant snow blindness mask.

I guess. I spent my growing up years in Winnipeg and Northwestern Ontario and I don’t think I ever owned an umbrella. Someone needs to tell them about scarves. Or maybe pinch one of those balaclavas from an ICE dude.

It happens when you’re a victim of partner violence also. And trying to report violence towards their kids results in accusations of retaliation or spitefulness. It’s always about those with more power protecting each other’s backs even when the harassment comes from their trad wives.

And a wickedly hot, sexy scene had Captain Kirk slipping on his boots after an encounter that we filled in with our imaginations.

Well what’s actually troubling is that it wasn’t SEEN but definitely was unscrupulous behaviour by people with a degree of shame & understanding of laws to skirt around. USA has a long history of overthrowing governments for it’s own gain.

MAGA is still freaking out over Bad Bunny’s show not speaking English.

Imagine the Washington National Opera having to cater to that crowd. No wonder they’re leaving the Kennedy Centre
