I read about just what you expressed some time ago. I actually forgot the reasoning why. Thank you for refreshing my fading memory. It truly is scary.

I read about just what you expressed some time ago. I actually forgot the reasoning why. Thank you for refreshing my fading memory. It truly is scary.
Very true. I made the difficult choice to stay an unmarried woman in this life. I never truly felt safe after watching my parents as I grew. We appeared to be the perfect family, we were far from it. I was blessed to have a daughter at 38 & she was my greatest joy! I'm 67 (eek) lol. Where did it go?
Like a deadly virus, created in the lab of bad public policy at the Heritage Foundation, Project 2025 has been let loose on our nation with impacts we are all just beginning to comprehend. My latest on Substack: open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...
Why call them "tarrifs" when "the land of the fee" was right there?
Cool. Thanks, I'm right there with ya at 5'9".
Hey Mark- Told one of my chiropractic patients about Cost Plus Drugs last week and your mission after he complained a skin cancer medicine was going to cost him $1700- He found it on your website for under $20- for real. Best project ever. @costplusdrugs.com
Oh, hell yes! All the finest states in the Union.
Good.
The same people who villainize Dr. Anthony Fauci, an actual doctor with a speciality in immunology and research in virology, are praising RFK Jr who has never seen the inside of a lab.
Hey Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, Nancy Mace, and anyone else using he victims of the Minneapolis shooting to push your political agenda of hate, Go F- yourselves! I am pretty sure Jesus is not on your side on this one, sinners. I stand with Senator Tina Smith! www.thedailybeast.com/minnesota-se...
Antidepressants are the cause? What a joke. Awful, just awful people. Our poor children. Thank God I'm not the mother of a school age child. Good ole weapon toting America. Ugh.
So very true. When my daughter was young I informed her she was not to use any social media until she was 16 and she did comply. Today at 29 she calls social media the absolute devil. She is on Twitter but for sports only. She's a huge baseball nut first, then football. I'm the opposite.
A US senator is opening an investigation into Meta after a leaked document reportedly showed the tech giant's artificial intelligence (AI) was permitted to have "sensual" and "romantic" chats with children. "Is there anything - ANYTHING - Big Tech won't do for a quick buck," he said.
We must remove ourselves from the internet platforms that are causing harm to all of us,especially to our kids. Teen suicides up, and the internet companies are trying to shift away from being blamed. They've paid off enough politicians who provide cover for their despicable actions.
Never opened a FB account. What you never had won't be missed. No other social media interactions except first Twitter, canceled X. Now Bluesky. That's enough!

Seriously. If prayer is so powerful, why hasn’t the mass shootings stopped? Wouldn’t that mean that God just doesn’t care? He hears. But shrugs his shoulders?!? So how then is prayer actually helpful? What comfort does it give when a child has been riddled with bullets?

Lol, some great times back then for sure. Some not so great, still had all the rapey stuff going on big time. A really good friend of mine was raped & beaten 1 night when I was not hangin' out. All in all it was just a major contrast of 2025. I would hate being young now. Sad for so many.😢
This one is so relatable and too good not to share!
Oh, very true. I remember being sexually harassed by my boss until I knocked him over the kerosene heater while his wife was just outside the front office. After i punched him no problems. Luckily Philly wasn't horrible in the gay bars. Goofy gf & I ended up in a gay bar to pee. They were cool!
FYI Walgreens currently has Covid vaccine appointments available (at least in NYC) starting in early September and they are asking you to bring a prescription
A script? Are they f'ing kidding? I live in rural America where they won't let me. Trying to get a measles shot from my doctor was a joke. Luckily b4 Rite Aid closed I got one. I'm close to NYC but I'll see what my olde city is requesting. Thanks for the info.
Or germ
Hard to believe this is 2025. My daughter & I ride in the car discussing her life at 29 and my life at 29. I think I lived in the outer limits in the 90's. I was as free as a bird then. Life was a never ending dream in retrospect. I could do anything!

I knew Pennsylvania would be on the list. We're headed to the city this weekend for the baseball game I guess we'll just get our flu shot and return to the city in a couple of weeks. It's now 8 months & my drs office is still debating whether I can get a measles shot. Lol. I got it at Rite Aid.
I'm sorry for your loss. I know the loss is devastating. RIP Sammy.

The Newsom tweets are funny, but I’m sad we’ve reached the point in which only petty jabs win our politics. I miss well reasoned policies and intelligent conversations.
"Yes, this is where we're at in 2025 thanks to social media". This came out of the mouth of a Gen Z psychologist, my daughter. No, she's not a nerd, weirdo, or consumer of mind altering substances. Sorry, we don't believe well reasoned policies & intelligent convos are going to return.

L'eggs! Sure was catchy advertising & sales model. I had plastic containers all over my bedroom but Hanes Silk Reflections were my preference.
Told my children about the ancient practice of “wearing nylons,” they did NOT believe me when I started the story and they absoLUTELY did not believe me when I said you could buy them in plastic eggs in the grocery store
Roy Orbison sang this song 17 days before his death. For the first and only time. “The most perfect voice” according to Elvis himself.
www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... Texas cannot require public schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom, a judge said Wednesday in a temporary ruling against the state's new requirement, making it the third such state law to be blocked by a court.
Why bother? It's not like most humans have ever lived by the 10 Commandments. All a joke. They believe pushing religion, again will make them fall into lockstep, again.
Dear Smithsonian… safeguard the past. Move your archives to Canada before destruction claims them.

atlantablackstar.com/2025/08/18/b... One of the reasons I don't think the death penalty in the US is viable is because the number of stories like this...where you can get jailed for 67 days because your name is similar to someone else.
Jumpin' in my car now 'cause being slammed to the ground for no reason sounds so appealing.
Hahaha!
The Air Canada strike is over. Flights resumed last night after the airline reached a deal with the union representing its flight attendants to end a three-day work stoppage that had grounded Canada’s flag carrier. Strikes and Unions work. We need more of this in the United States. Especially now.
CNN's Dana Bash: Why send your state's National Guard to DC instead of Memphis, where crime is much higher? It's a red state. GOP Rep. Tim Burchett: It‘s not a federally created environment. Washington, D.C. is a federally created environment.
Don't they though, the whole birds of a feather thingy.
People are actually shocked that the Israeli cyber security official who was charged in Nevada w/ sex crimes against children was given safe passage back to Israel by the Trump administration? Really? Birds of a feather protect each other.
Oh, she's funny. We need more female comediennes.
Just stumbled across a vid of Air Canada pilots pulling up in a pickup truck to drop off cases of bottled water, snacks, and supplies for the striking flight attendants and oh my menopausal emotions 😭 Stronger together means something 🫶

Lovely.
UNBELIEVABLELY sweet moment between a peacock chick and their parent. Not sharebait. I COULD NOT believe my luck. Last year I had seen the chicks about 3 weeks later, I was determined to get them younger, and this one DID NOT disappoint! SQUEE - o - meter 10/10, thank you birds! 🥰 🐣 🪶

Dear supermarkets, Please have a way of informing us if recipes change. If you change the layout of the store, please inform us & provide a map or something. It can be a huge thing for Autistic folk & those with eating disorders, as well as those with mobility issues.
Well stated. Same thing I was thinking.

Such language! These words coming from a professional? How dare they when our children may just be in ear shot. I would have been fired had I used that language on the job.
For decades, the biomedical industry has relied on a compound in horseshoe crab blood to protect medical equipment from contamination, saving untold human lives. But conservationists say modern medicine’s dependence on this bloodletting is upending a globe-spanning ecosystem.
A+ trolling 🏆
You're a rare bird. Someone who thinks for themselves. It is serious business, when did we stop thinking for ourselves?
It's called research, especially when it comes to your children. Not trying to be witty here. Serious business. Do your research, talk to medical professionals, etc.
I know, educating ourselves is so hard.
Well stated but ew. Shouldn't that be the reaction to consuming raw milk or do they just want to prove other's wrong. It does not work!
