Former Labor Secretary Frances Perkins, who the Department of Labor building is named after, standing at her desk.
On the 113th anniversary of the Department of Labor's founding, America’s unions thank the department and its historic leaders for making sure working people can come home safe, healthy and paid.
We’ll keep fighting to make sure the Department of Labor protects all working people.
Hahaha I love the air quotes. I want someone to just come out and say it. “You are using millions of tax payer dollars to fund your affair.”

Look, you vote for whoever the fuck you want to vote for. Integrity means a lot to me and everything about that guy is ringing alarm bells. So if your conscience is clear, cool.
So y’all just gonna ignore that his stances on his website aren’t even his own? Cool cool.
I mean the stripping away of personal belongings from people who already have so little. They threw out important documents and IDs, family photos, and much more without the permission of the owners.
His kowtowing to rightwing figures on his podcast, his corporate dem stances that only serve himself and those like him, the multi-year deficits… I could go on, but you get the point. And, as I said initially, if he wins the nomination, I will vote for him, but I don’t think he’s a good choice.
His stance on a billionaires tax, his declaration that it’s not a genocide in Gaza and his continued support for Israel as they blow through ceasefires, his bs “culturally normal” kitchen table comment because I guess people on the gender spectrum don’t have kitchen table issues? 2/
Well, not starting with his lack of scientific understanding of how hormones work for trans people isn’t an option. I have a trans teen and that’s right up there at the top. The brutal clearing of encampments is too because, yk, humanity and stuff. 1/
Same. Being from CA, people outside the state ask me, “aren’t you excited?! Newsom could be president!” Then I gotta educate them on why that’s not a good idea.*
*I will vote for whomever the nominee is.
Idk.. maybe it feels good to have something positive about the country on display. The hard work of the olympians and the comments made by so many of them in defense of morals makes it feel good to root for them. And fucking curling.
This needs to be nationwide until this nightmare ends.
There’s a responsible gun owner for you. “I did not understand what happened” really?? Then you haven’t had even a basic lesson on gun safety. Or it was intentional. I’m thinking the latter.
Wtf does he know about the “real world”?
For those keeping score at home:
Fuck yeah
Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."
My partner leaves it on his dashboard while working so it gets melty. He calls it “dash cheese”
Actual quote from my MIL “She hasn’t done anything for 4 years.” Apparently knowing the role of a VP and what they do is beyond many people.
But also misogyny, racism, ignorance, hypocrisy, etc. because there is always a thick, stinky layer of all of it everywhere.
While you literally demean women and devalue their autonomy and *still* miss the entire point of this post. Miss me with that nonsense.
💯
First the condescending tone and use of “dear,” then the implication of some divine intervention in actions women decide to take and the use of #3 on the list of insults to hurl at women. I’m sensing a theme here. Shut up and crawl back under your rock.
Uh, no. Not true at all. Just take a look at any TTC (trying to conceive) or “mom” group. My first 2 children were planned and conceived with the intention to get pregnant. I was planned as well after the “accident” of my older sibling.
It’s so interesting that the people who are so hung up on “illegal” entry into the country - a misdemeanor - proudly voted for a 34-time felon and adjudicated rapist. It has never been about the rule of law.
Very large metal bowl with snow, dungeness and king crab, shrimp, baby potatoes, and sliced sausage.
Merry New Year! Had our traditional crab boil tonight and I am stuffed.
Merry whatever. Hope you’re safe, warm and fed.
You are, once again, an example of pure humanity. Thank you.
Their xmas trees… (took this picture today in a local boutique)
And what is he doing to that poor eagle?
