I’m totally okay with troops getting nice food, if that is how the money was spent. Without a Truth and Reconciliation Commission, I fear we won’t know how billions of taxpayer dollars were spent during Trump 2.0
Just in case you haven't heard about it yet: I loved the Oscar-nominated short film "Jane Austen's Period Drama," which literally made me LOL several times and brought me a great deal of joy!
Romancelandia, this is very much Our Shit™.

I remember when trying to forgive student loans was massive overreach of Presidential power.
Hope it goes in front of Coffman next to the bronze Goldie sculpture, another expensive piece of “public art” that was foisted on the U by alumni. TBH, I’d rather see 25k spent on paying for a year of dissertation work on Kirk by a PhD candidate, but that’s not the point of propaganda.
Relieved to hear the bunker comes with an air fryer.
Loving watching the Minnesota-based Team USA curling dominating the ice at the Olympics. If you're not watching Olympic curling, you're missing out. #curling #olympics
I had to leave my PCP and move my care to an expensive concierge doc in a HAES-centered clinic to keep myself safe from all the GLP-1 pushers in all aspects of medicine. The change to a non GLP-1 focused clinic has improved my physical and mental health and has been worth every penny of OOP costs.

Peacock’s captions for their Olympic coverage are awful. Whenever their algorithm detects a non-English language, it appears to attempt to translate into English, and just spits out random, non-sensical phrases.
Flowchart helping someone decide where or not they should write a romance think piece.
Sarah made this helpful flowchart for people thinking about writing romance think pieces for Valentine's Day. It's not too late to turn back!
I know a mental health provider who reports having clients who order the GLP-1s from online sources, no prescription, and use online forums to determine how much to give their overweight CHILDREN.
Blond haired, blue eyed fair skinned Minnesota farm kid in tennis shoes, opaque white tights, and early 1980s calico print blue dress sitting on a rock, beaming at the camera, and holding a tabby farm kitten with white belly.

SkyNews13 caught an amazing view of a herd of bighorn sheep while flying over the Sangre de Cristo Mountains in northern New Mexico today!
I was a tween when the movie came out and played an arrangement of All For Love that year for piano recital. Thanks to both Hal Leonard for providing so many solo piano arrangements of Bryan Adams’ power ballads and to my piano teacher for not recording any of my childhood recitals.
Former Minnesota farm kid here—we used to bring newborn lambs into the house in the winter when it was bitterly cold. We had a box with straw they slept in.
I wrote about AIM’s Minneapolis origin story and why patrols are back on Franklin Avenue right now, as ICE escalates across the Twin Cities.

I mean, Minnesota has some of the highest high school/ GED completion and higher education participation rates in the country…
I'm on the Green Line towards downtown Minneapolis ICE OUT protest.
The train filled immediately. Even 20 stops away from our destination we reached capacity.
People are cheering at every stop when they see people waiting to board because we are all starting to realize how big this is.

It's illegal for the president to relieve student loan debt. It's completely fine for the president to unilaterally decide to have the head of a foreign nation black bagged on foreign soil.
From $8 to thousands!

Further erosion of USPS, one of the last equalizing forces keeping those of us living in remote or rural areas connected to the larger economy.
We have GE Profile. I don’t totally hate the placement of the touch dials (I try not to focus on it, at least). It’s been a solid performer with zero maintenance needed the 3 years we’ve had it. I’ve recommended it to others who have also had positive experiences with theirs.
The cruelty is the point.

Reminds me of the observations in Low's excellent song Death of a Salesman in which the speaker gets redirected from his dream of writing and performing music: "They said music's for fools/ You should go back to school/ The future's in prison and math." youtu.be/8wAfl1YY9s0?...

The cover of the health brochure from UHC is a blue tea cup on a navy blue background with the words "The only thing better than a cup of tea..."
Inner part of the folded brochure. Left hand side has two tea mugs clinking in a "cheers!" motion with the following text that continues over from the front of the brochure. That text says "...is a cup of tea with a friend". The right hand fold is white text on blue background that says, "You're not alone. If you or a loved one has recently received a cancer diagnosis, know that support is here. The Cancer Support Program available through UnitedHealthcare offers resources, guidance and more for navigating the road ahead--all provided at no extra cost as part of your benefits.
Final part of the folded brochure is the inner part. Top fold includes two Twinings Lemon and Ginger tea bags that have been affixed with adhesive dots to the paper. Under the tea bags is the text "Share a cup of tea with a friend or loved one as you review your Cancer Support resources together. Below the tea bags is a final fold with contact information. Text includes: "Enroll in the Cancer Support Program-- Call to learn more and enroll in the program today." I have blacked out the email address, web address, and phone number for privacy.
Is this what we will all soon be prompted to use for our serious chronic health conditions if we wish to "keep costs down"? Some herbal tea and a telephone call to an anonymous phone number that might be staffed by AI nurse bots?
