"Meta Platforms Inc. has fired or disciplined more than two dozen employees and contractors over the last year whom it accused of improperly taking over user accounts, in some cases allegedly for bribes, according to people familiar with the matter and documents viewed by The Wall Street Journal."

THEORY:

Irish folk tunes fall into one of four categories:

- I am in love with my one true love
- My one true love is dead/a ghost/the Fae
- Work destroyed me and I have nothing left but song
- I am incredibly drunk right now

Scottish folk songs also fall into one of four categories:

- I am in love with my one true love
- My one true love is dead/a ghost/the Fae
- Work destroyed me and I have nothing left but song
- Holy sheep crap Scotland is beautiful

@Florence Thanks so much for sharing what works for you under such difficult circumstances. Reasonable goals are so important to identify, especially because they differ so much from person to person. We gotta be kind to ourselves when we set them. 😊

@Florence Rocky, aka The Doggo of Destruction, is beautiful, funny, smart, and still a f#cking terror to shoes, paper, plastic bags, and likes to steal stuff. He's a trial when he isn't totally adorable.

@Florence Did the nice person say #beagle photos????

I wasn’t expecting to be overwhelmed with nostalgia and emotions today. I’ve been back in schools since I retired, mostly in the evenings or weekends for special programs. But today was different. Shew!

Anyway, it was nice and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share grandson’s school day. 🙂

Youngest grandson’s school didn’t invite relatives but since my daughter works there she got to sit with him.

With subtle shade from Pelosi: "American democracy is majestic, but also fragile....It must be protected from harm."

@danialexis fwiw i've sung the Migos song 'Stir Fry' non-ironically

Kinda funny how my attempts to log my thoughts to counter attention/focus issues very quickly turns into a list of things to not do and then feel bad about.

Half joking here, becuase it's really useful to see when I'm double counting the hours in the day and setting myself up for disappointment by thinking I can accomplish more in a day than I can.

Pete Aguilar – Representing the California's 31st District is also being named as a contender for a spot in Democratic leadership

I'm glad that the Senate is Blue, but a Red House is just... disappointing. But I'm tired of being disappointed in my fellow citizens. Why is feeding children radical? Why is health care for everyone radical? It's just-- just taking care of each other. Isn't that what we're supposed to do? <sigh> Much love to all of you! I know you're struggling too

On my morning walk, I heard an audio clip of Herschel Walker rambling about vampires and werewolves that was so drop-dead embarrassing that my ears tried to escape my head.

Word is that the Democratic Black Caucus will back Hakeem Jeffries for ANY position in leadership he makes a run for
