Bill to reintroduce wolverines to Colorado advancing in legislature

@gemswinc No. An internet special.

BREAKING: Journalists are acknowledging that if Trump wins the election, this may be the last White House Correspondents Dinner. Trump doesn’t believe in a free press.

Before the dog killing story, Kristi Noem's editor removed other content that was considered unseemly. Makes you wonder what else was in her memoir. #dogkiller

“Travelers to unknown regions might be well advised to take along the family dog. He could just save you from entering the wrong gate. At least it happened that way once-in a mountainous area of the Twilight Zone.”

@gemswinc If you mean my sheltie the answer is yes. Also have another one on this background page. Different dogs. I raise shelties but I don't breed them.

Apropos of nothing, PostNews is being absorbed into Spoutible. When muskrat destroyed Twitter, ppl fled to many platforms. Now they are starting to consolidate.

@gemswinc Believe me I completely understand. I stay in lockdown mode at all times.

@gemswinc Miss you Cindy over in nutville.

@rphlegm I am disenchanted with unmitigated greed wrapped in the flag.

Sara Amundson, president of the Humane Society Legislative Fund — the lobbying arm of the Humane Society of the United States — said in a statement that “there is no redeeming takeaway from a story about the ending of these animals’ lives, including a juvenile dog who was the family pet.”

Rump and Noem’s disregard for animals reflects their disregard for everything else. Cruelty is the point. For 120 years every president has had a pet in the White House. Not the orange menace.

@rphlegm Low risk, high profitability. The same is happening in the realm of human medical facilities such as Oak Street Health and hospitals. MDs in ERs often work for a private entity farmed out to the ER.
