Yup, I’m vegetarian since my teen years, eat 99% plant based now and I’m so grateful my mom honored that choice back then. I do the same for others- eat what suits you, live & let live. I won’t begrudge your choices, kindly do the same in return. It’s pretty simple, really.

This is in my feed immediately following a quote about the lack of empathy foreshadowing barbarism. How did we get here?!

Yeah, I’ve wondered if they can be conscientious objectors when it comes to this stuff.

I said this when Musk said he was in the files- how could that possibly be “news”?!

Actual picture above, laughably fake picture here- and you call us deranged?

I had someone at work say this & my immediate thought was, “did they do that when Obama was president?”

And it didn’t trickle down to their employees or customers.

What age? 43?

Pass the test immigrants take to become a citizen. Pass the background test they do for everyone else. Ofc people will say it’s being used by the deep state to keep some from running, and I suppose it could if it were corrupted somehow.

I have so enjoyed listening to your podcast over the past cpl months. You make all the legalese understandable w/o sounding patronizing. Although I feel anxious listening, as I can’t imagine this administration heeding the court’s rulings, I’m grateful at least 1 branch hasn’t just given in.

To your last point, the world already seems more aware than most Americans do.

Honestly, no. I have cut back, but I don’t think severely. However, I have almost entirely cut back on target (they are the only ones who have our vegan cheese, so I get that occasionally).

My job has been stressful lately, but I had a couple days this week that were fun, had us laughing like we used to, and it felt really good. I love this tradition- so nice to read about joy!

Absolutely stunning! One of my favorite photos from our trip last summer is of my daughter in a lavender field.

The end got me 🥹 If only everyone here would see them as people, working in the same places as us, supporting their families as we do, contributing to our community, not as “others”, they would be embracing them, too.

I wish there were a way we could stand in for them, so the # would be the same, even if not the same job.

Not try, he has already ignored a temporary restraining order of his use of the wartime Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport without due process.

If overstaying visas gets you deported, can ice please knock on Elon’s door?

She overstayed at that time, then began the legal process and married a citizen. Hardly the criminal Trump said he was going to round up.
