"Currently, going into the new 2023-2024 school year, there are eight states that are now offering "permanently free" school breakfast and lunch: California, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Vermont, Colorado, New Mexico and Minnesota."

@cassandra17lina Upsales are a thing that I failed at. Needed a water heater replaced? That's what I did. Today, oh you need a water softener, a new ducting system, roof jack, gas line 18 extra smoke detectors and etc.

Neurodiverse do not process and relate experiences in the same manner as neurotypical do.

The vibe is MISERY.

Insight after touring Amsterdam:
The American ideal of the resilient individual is, ultimately, a weak point for the culture.
While it is a simplistic ideal for an interesting, fictional story line, it is a liability for large-scale improvements to our society and governance.

An American DA could indict both Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis for human trafficking.

Raise your hand if you’ve never been indicted 4 times with 119 criminal charges.

I love how some of the reporting on Trump's latest indictment points out that the RICO charge is something associated with mobsters, while missing the obvious: Trump is a motherfucking mobster...

Will Maddow be able to interview HRC if she can't stop laughing? I know HRC can be quite sober and poised, but....I wouldn't blame her for having a laughing fit.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is about to go chain herself to the front door of the Fulton County courthouse to protest Trump’s latest indictment.

@GreenPaladin @JolieSaboteuse I was promised on one of this idiots last stops in 2020 that if he didn't win we would never see his face again......another big fat lie

It's been 954 days since Donald Trump called Brad Raffensperger & pressured him to "find" 11,780 non-existent votes in Georgia.

He wanted to flip the results.

He wanted to steal the election.

A jury just returned 10 indictments.

How delicious that Rachel Maddow was supposed to interview Hillary .. but is delayed because of indictments! Think on that.

Bear in mind the orange bigmouth will speak at Iowa today and there ain't no way on earth he won't breach his order.

TV talking head pundits are saying it’s very unlikely Trump would ever get pretrial detention, in jail. If so, he’s won another round. Again. Every other American doesn’t get that same consideration if they violate their terms of “bail”.

30 days in jail with threat of more MIGHT improve Trumps civility. Doing NOTHING but give hollow word threats doesn’t prompt a change in his behavior, we’ve seen that repeatedly already. No?

Funny how they don’t mention if they cut ties with the artist or not, also how are you planning to stop people from using AI generated images in your books?

Oh, you’re just gonna put out a PR non apology and hope the issue goes away?

Cool, cool, cool…..
