Demand that Schumer and Durbin step down from leadership. I'm looking forward to the day the GOP implodes; if the Dem party needs to go first, so be it. At the very, very least, immediately swear in Adelita Grijalva and release the Epstein files.

Left messages for both to call for Schumer to step aside. Be sure to include that in after thanking them.

We love our Outbacks! We got one about 8 years ago and just got a Wilderness Edition Outback earlier this summer. Great vehicles! Good luck finding your next car!

Omg yes, I was giving 100% like I thought I was supposed to, now in my mid-40's I realize I kinda sorta never really learned how to fall asleep. Instead, I was always so exhausted, I could pass out in minutes when given the opportunity.

Inside baseball but AltNPS isn’t NPS - during the 1st Trump admin they were but it got slid off into the current format by new β€œowners” who do weird posts w/ vague resistance cosplay & selling merch w/ questionable profit accountability

Park rangers have reached out to them & been rebuffed

yes, this. When I was a kid, many of my nice relatives would become filled with hate around abortion issues. They felt validated in hating women because they were so certain that they were right. How could they not see that the hate was the problem?

I love the name Lumi! Makes me smile everything I read it. And of course seeing Lumi the doggie makes me smile.

Here's Kiri cat. The absolute trust of a cat with her belly exposed. She's so soft.

What a wonderful project!
One comment: "We want to make it easy for people to do the right thing for the sake of our local biodiversity."
Could this be "We want to make it easy for people to participate in nurturing our local biodiversity."? Or similar.
"do the right thing" just hits me weird.

repost with a favorite book from childhood

Chose this book in second grade as the prize when I finally won at classroom bingo.

Totally makes sense.
Coming from a "nice" family, I hadn't used the word abuse to describe my experience, but I've healed a great deal upon finally seeing it as such. And I've been better able to protect myself from further harm.

"I am extremely practiced at keeping myself alive"
Whoa, that is exactly it for me too.
Resonating with so much of your thread.
Thank you.
