So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Kansas Revokes IDs for 1,000+ Transgender Residents Under New State Law More than 1,000 transgender Kansas residents have had their driver's licenses and birth certificates invalidated under a new state law that took effect Thursday. The legislation requires gender marker...

It was never about protecting cisgen women and girls. This law strips transgender adult male and females of their right to pursue liberty.

Good! Do it! And we can then rebuild it with integrity, ethics, compassion, and following the law and the Constitution.

Honestly … growing food is a labor of love.

And the love left the process in big agriculture a long time ago.

I'm gonna keep calling Prince Andrew "Prince Andrew" because stripping him of his titles was nothing more than an effort to save the Crown.

His royal birth bestowed him with power that he used to abuse people and I won't aid in obscuring that.

Oh you think the president who ran for office to avoid going to prison on felony charges is (1) going to resign willfully and is (2) just NOW making "all of us" look bad?

Honest question: did you just wake up from a coma?

Two weeks ago, something in my soul told me to order $50 of girl scout cookies. Then yesterday, ten boxes of girl scout cookies showed up in the mail right as I was going through a breakup. The universe be knowing.

DHS said that the woman CBP shot in the chest in Portland was β€œinvolved” in a gang shooting.

Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.

Kudos to Mayor Mamdani.

This is what economic justice looks like.

And it's a reminder of how we can fight corporate greed at the state and local level. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/01/mamdani-ice-delivery-workers-settlement-backpay-uber-gig-workers-million/
