There is a danger in becoming desensitized to the "horrid."
I get that many of us are trying to manage our own mental health in light of all the "horrid."
But numb is not good. Pain, while unpleasant, serves a purpose.
The "horrid" can quickly become the norm, and that is the danger.

My mental health day bread. Of course, it has a big burp in the middle! π€ That's okay. It will taste great! I can't wait to get to that part of the loaf. Big slices from the burp! π€£

Suing us for leaking his tax documents while siccing DOGE on our personal records and files, while acquiring our personal voting records and data, and while having stooges walk around scanning our faces for inclusion in a registry.
Anyone? 2/2

He's suing the IRS and US Treasury for ... leaking his tax documents.
He's suing "us" all (taxpayers) for $10 billion dollars for ... leaking his tax documents.
Does anyone besides me see how rich this is? 1/2

No matter what else is happening in the world, the bread still rises.
Where bread is rising, there is hope.
We should bake more bread for each other.
The world would be a better place if we did.
Here is a loaf of Light Wheat for you all!

My first time trying to bake Tiger Milk Bread. I used a small Pullman pan. I am pleased with the outcome. This process was out of my wheelhouse, so more practice needed. A little more complex than I am accustomed to. Tastes good! π The household likes it! π€

Let's elect a non-GOP majority to the House & Senate in November.
Then let's impeach Trump & Vance. Remove them!
Then seat the NEW Speaker of the House as President.
Then clean house & clean up this mess! I'm not just talking firing. I'm talking indictments & prison & maybe Guantanamo!
It's a plan.

If you think that my version of Christianity is too progressive, too inclusive, too empathetic, or too ... deluded, then hear me.
I'd rather be deluded by love than weaponized by hate.

40.3 oz container of Folgerβs Columbian coffee today at Samβs: $22.48.
Exactly 1 year ago the same was: $14.98.
Increase of $7.50 in 1 year. 50% increase. βΉ
The price hikes arenβt just for coffee. Forced into making changes & other choices.
Not happy about what is happening in DC! #DumpTrump

I had my mouth washed out with soap a time or two as a kid when I said bad words in public, Mr. President. I even spelled your bad word one time and got the bar of soap! Mom always said she used Ivory soap. Pretty sure it was Dial. Nasty soap for nasty talk. Here's a bar for you!
