@LowEndMuse I'm so sorry, Paige. I hope they get you up and outta there soon.
Best selling author Jodi Picoult knows about book bans. Her books have been banned in libraries and schools around the country for discussions of sexuality and gender. Join us for this special Banned Book Week event to hear from Jodi on standing up to censorship, the freedom to read, Jodi’s new best-selling book, and what we can all do to support authors and our rights to access diverse literature. #BanBookBans

Simplicity calls to my soul.
I yearn for a life unhurried,
A world of gentle moments,
Where peace blooms in quiet corners.
Let me savor the small joys -
A warm mug, a soft breeze,
The rhythm of breath and heartbeat.
In this gentle unfolding, I find wealth.
No grand gestures or clamoring crowds,
Just the quiet grace of being.
This humble beauty, this tender calm -
It's all my heart truly craves.

FLIP THE HOUSE BLUE IN 2024
Hi everyone,
We're doing it again! We are raising a goal of $50k to support 4 House tossup races that will help determine control of the House.
This basket supports one incumbent: Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA-03), and three Democrats running in tossup races to turn a seat blue: Mondaire Jones (NY-17), Sue Altman (NJ-07, challenging MAGA Tom Kean Jr), and Janelle Bynum (OR-05). #election2024
“Was it really my fault?”
asked the Short Skirt.
“No, it happened with me too,”
replied the Burka.
The diaper in the corner couldn't even speak.

The laughing months have all tripped gaily by,
With flower entangled hair, lips thrilled with song;
But lingering behind the merry throng
Comes one with smile more sad than any sigh,
And 'round her moaningly the dead leaves fly.
With backward glance her eyes the way prolong—
Wide, wistful eyes, intense with yearning strong
For warm young life too early doomed to die,
While thoughts were golden hours with sunbeams sown.
@FinnegansWhacked this one sure is. 😬

@Ironworker229 Deal!
@northernbassist never had any. The ads when I was a kid were of old folks so it never appealed.
