Dude, something messed me up *bad* after my last pregnancy almost 5 years ago. Can't lose weight for the life of me, regardless of how little I eat. Trying to accept that this is just what I look like now 😭

He will almost certainly blame it on pregnant women taking antidepressants.
Didn't realize it was meant for Louisianans 😅 whoops. Ah, well. Can't hurt.
... But your head looks fine?
Absolutely. My daughter is in the school trailers this year, and I am not looking forward to illness season.
Also, like, the President is assigned so many responsibilities already. Would a president who is actually looking after their responsibilities properly even have time to manage the Fed?
Allegedly he said, "We should reform FDA so there is approving drugs after their sponsors have demonstrated safety – and let people start using them, at their own risk, but not much risk of safety....Let’s prove efficacy after they’ve been legalized."
I can't, so you're at least one step ahead! Can't type with anyone looking over my shoulder either 😩
And my sedentary lifestyle! 😅
Yeah, I did get my flu shot and Tdap booster. Thinking about getting my measles immunity checked.
The trailer is soooo well done. Good work!
Freaking Kroger let me make an online appointment for it the other day. Only pharmacy in my area that said it had the COVID vaccine. When I showed up, they just said, "Oh, we don't have that. Won't for awhile."
Fairly certain it'll be about pregnant women taking antidepressants.
Good.
I... Honestly can't tell if this picture is fake or not. It's too perfect.
Man, some agent needs to snap this up, because I REALLY want to read it! 🤩
I feel ya. I've gotten about 20 minutes of work done on my query letter this week. That's it. No actual writing.
Ah, so they're AI-powered. Nice.
@altspaceforce.altgov.info Why does preschool start a whole week later than elementary school? I can't really be expected to entertain my child MYSELF for a whole WEEK!
I hear you. It's important not to ignore the political climate. However, it's also incredibly important to continue to revel in the things that bring you joy. Your wedding is important too.
This is EXACTLY what I was going to say. He's going to put them in concentration camps.
But... We didn't actually annihilate the Germans and the Japanese people?
Oh man, should've thought of that in the moment! I love dumb corny jokes. He just rolls his eyes.
Watched my husband of 12 years and father of our three children use a stud finder the other day. He did not do this. Y'all, did I marry an alien???
Apparently it refers to Eli Wiesel (found the full text online). That's just...such a *weird* way to identify the man. Like, even if they're trying to say he made a career profiting off the Holocaust... I'd say he fully earned every penny.
I came here to ask the same thing!! The heck??
President and Vice President are specifically exempted in the Hatch Act, unfortunately.
I would pay big money to see somebody assemble a team to... "escort" him to the Hague. ... Am I going on a list now? Crap.
They couldn't even get *nice* tables and chairs? These look like they picked them up at a cheap golf course's liquidation sale.
I get it. Social media is fun and can be very useful. I use it for work nearly every day. But I do think we would all be a lot better off if all social media just disappeared overnight.
This is so stupid. And about 3 times as expensive an operation as assigned in the bill, according to the article.
From my understanding of the articles I've read on the matter, they didn't even require realid at this hospital. But one (or multiple) of the staff noticed she didn't have it and took it upon themselves to look her up and report her.
Does everybody have to pick up their checks, etc in person? Or just the missing Dems?
Okay, but what is a chemtrail *exactly*, legally speaking? Are we banning cropdusters? Or just the pretend chemical-releasing planes in the stratosphere?
Oh no. No no no. Do not like this. At all. Esp as a mother of a tween girl living in Utah.
I can't believe it's been an entire decade of this garbage. Yet, I find it difficult to believe that it's *only* been ten years.
Now I'm wondering if anybody has *actually* made a donation to the US Treasury.
Wow, I love that phrase! Stealing it.
To clarify: At all other times, he goes 6-10mph+ over the speed limit.
My husband only goes at the speed limit (or below) when I want him to hurry. How do I get a jury that won't convict me of his murder?
I mean, yeah, it's probably going to the new golden ballroom, but I'd really like to find out for certain.
The agreement document says the university is actively paying it in 3-4 installments over the next three years. Hypothetically, they've already made the first payment.
I can't find ANYWHERE that says where *exactly* the "fine" money is going. Any ideas?
No worries. It's hard to tell on the internet.
Oh, I know, I was being facetious.
Hey, I hear that's hot right now!
Why is it we append every scandal with -gate? Must be a reason...
Homemade waffles (lightly crispy on the outside, soft on the inside) are better than pancakes. Eggo waffles are warmed stale crackers and have no place in any discussion about good food.
From the song: "Can't count the years on one hand that we've been together."
Oh man, judging by your MSWL and some hype-talk from somebody in a discord who claims to be an old friend of yours (is it weird to say that? feels weird), I'd be all over sending you my YA Fantasy manuscript. But it's already in Claire's inbox.
Boooooooo
This is fake. I hate him as much as the next person, but that picture did not sit on his desk.
"Of course he's in there, he was infiltrating the trafficking pedo ring to get proof against all the conspirators! He was bringing them down FROM THE INSIDE! 5-D chess moves!" 🙄
Is that... Old playground equipment?
Not to mention significantly increasing package waste!
Ah, nevermind, finally was able to get the article to load on my device. They are building AND operating it.
Is it for building the concentration camp, or just running it? Because it almost sounds like the latter.
Maybe that's the point?
This doesn’t have to be a problem. House members in safe seats and Senators who aren’t up in 2026 don’t have to hoard the money. I’m raising lots of $$ and I’m putting into local groups that are mobilizing and protesting.
ATTN: If you're one of the Treasury employees that handled Epstein's Suspicious Activity Reports, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻
During my last pregnancy, I saw a psychiatrist for my bipolar, depression, and anxiety. He took me off all my meds cold turkey, because taking them "could harm the baby." I was offered ZERO alternatives. No CBT, not even sketchy vitamins. I fell into such a dark, deep hole after that.

Have you seen the videos of that college dorm building collapsing in the WV flooding? Insane that nobody's helping from the federal level.
@muellershewrote.com Have you seen this? 18 year old Lupe who's been in the country since 3 months old called 911 on her abusive boyfriend. But when the cops showed, they believed the white men who said she was the instigator, and took her in. Now she's in ICE custody. For being abused.
I'm sure most of us would, if we had the cash.
This is ABHORRENT www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Don't forget to include handling costs in the price! Your labor has value.
This makes me so angry.

Lovely friends, I need your help. If you can, please like and share this so it may reach the people it needs to. Last night my dear friend's loved one, Lupe, called 911 after being hit by her drunk boyfriend. This is not the first time this has happened. What followed landed her in ICE custody. 1/?
An evil mage stealing a kingdom. A spreading drought curse. The ensuing famine. Only one person can bring it all back from the brink. And she just refused the call. #BluePit 📖 #Q #YA #F #WF #ND #RainMagic
Soulmate tropes get turned on their head. People stop aging at 25, until they meet their soulmate, and grow old together. But when a woman "matches" with a centuries-old serial killer who murders his soulmate's reincarnations to achieve immortality, things get dicey. #BluePit 📖 #W #NA #WF #ND #T
A young woman who can control rain by singing is the only hope of drought-cursed kingdoms. Betrayal propels her onto a journey fraught with monsters and vampiric companions. She must learn to trust--despite past abuse--to save the kingdoms and her family. #BluePit 📖 #Q #YA #WF #ND #F
Whelp, not a peep in my inbox today. Not sure whether I should consider that a blessing.
Hard to tell if my new bipolar medication isn't working well, or if my kids are just jerks to each other all day, so I get overstimulated and angry. Or both. Hopefully not both 🤞 #mentalhealth #summerparenting #adhd #sos
*An agent
Am agent giving me personal feedback on a query would be the best birthday present! 🙏🎁 #prettyplease #amquerying #queryingauthor #birthday #maybeafullrequest
Tomorrow's my birthday! 🎂🎆 Visitors, well-wishers, and distant relations welcome! 😄
I queried 13 agents today 😳 Somebody's got to at least respond with feedback this round, right? Right?? 🤞 #amquerying #queryingauthor #RainMagic #YAFantasy #booksky #HighHopes
HALLELUJAH!
AKA: The reason I'm crying into a bulk bag of tic-tacs in the middle of the night.
Trialing different antipsychotics (under psychiatrist direction) over a period of a few months in an attempt to better control bipolar disorder can really wreak havoc on your system.
I have a working boombox that I keep thinking about getting rid of. Haven't used it in years. But for some reason, I just keep holding on.
Showed it to my MAGA husband. He said it's "obvious satire."
This was absolutely written with or heavily assisted by AI.
Per the article, they've been ordered to self-deport. Their lawyer is fighting it, but the government has started the deportation process.
Reprehensible. All these MAGA apologists have been out there saying it's not hard to get your realID to prove your citizenship, and it's now proven not to help. (Not that we're surprised.)
He looks so friendly!
... Is my self care app threatening me to take my nighttime meds? #Finch #selfcare #mentalhealth
If you ever get the chance, have a sit-down with @ginad129.bsky.social . Not only is she a delight, but her industry knowledge and instincts are true and helpful. Thanks Gina! #Storymakers25 #writing
Good news! I didn't cry at ALL this weekend! 😀
@ginad129.bsky.social FYI, the comp title I told you about yesterday was The Hedgewitch of Foxhall by Anna Bright.
Going to pitch my manuscript to two agents at a writers conference next week. My doctor just changed up my mental health medications. Prepping now to keep myself from crying when they reject me. It'll be super fun and professional.
Please consider coming to Utah on a not-Sunday.
I had to Google dinkus. Pretty sure I'm finally a real author now that I know the official term.
Yikes.
I hope today is better! Take care of yourself. ❤️
What are they even spending that much money on???
