Although we're all making fun of DeSantis's humiliation, we shouldn't forget that his anti-vax crusade — in service of his doomed run — probably killed thousands of people

The 22 years old Air Force 2nd Lt. Madison Marsh has made military history by becoming the first active-duty service member to be crowned Miss America.

Good doctor appointment for my mom today—she probably won’t have to have surgery on her broken elbow. She is in great spirits. And she liked all the things I sewed for her, especially the fleece poncho.
So everything better than expected.

This could be why I like nachos better than tacos.

In 1944 she was deported to Auschwitz. She did not survive.”

RIP. Memory Eternal.

Seriously. To the point I put myself in time out, online wise, because I know I won't be a nice person if I don't.

Sneaking Out Of Texas
by Clay Jones

Greg Abbott has resumed his asshole policy of human trafficking. He, like Ron DeSantis, thinks it's hilarious to bus and fly refugees to blue states and cities to please their racist MAGAt base. Lately, he's been shuttling them to Chicago.

I hate that I'm so used to the electoral college I hardly even get outraged by it anymore. It's such an idiotic system. We criticize other countries' elections, but is there any other country where you can lose the election and still win?

True statement.

But at 3am, I heard him stirring and checked on him. He was sitting by his empty food bowl. And he meowed at me. So I held an open can of food for him to sniff, and he dove in, trying to scarf it up. So I gave him a regular meal portion and he eagerly ate it all. And ate eagerly at breakfast.

He also let me hold him for a couple of minutes. And now he and Anna are curled up together.

Rep. Scott Perry Could Be The Next Insurrectionist To Be Kicked Off The Ballot. He was involved in Trump's coup plot, and now Jack Smith will get most of his texts and emails.

You will never see me with passion saying Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays. This little guy passed away on December 29th 4 years ago. People say that I must get over this, but half of me belonged to this little guy. How fast time flies and how I miss him. Sad days to me (leaving aside that I miss my grandparents too). Hard days indeed. Will I see the light one day?
