I’ve been there, too! We were traveling from Geneva to Paris on a family vacation and I made the whole family stop so I could lay flowers. ❤️

I’m kinda surprised they went public and didn’t just try to pass him off, as republicans usually do with their shenanigans.

I was going to use the laughing emoji but I can’t find one wearing a beret.
Target leadership is simply laughable.

Tlaib should respond that she’ll be sure to offer condolences to Mace upon the death of the Grand Wizard, since that’s who she’ll be in mourning for.

Much of that spending on the right went for a constant deluge if ads that were complete fabrications, like the idea that teens were getting gender-altering surgeries in schools and Haitians were eating cats and dogs.

That’s the population that can’t fly to Epstein’s island with their children and their children’s nannies for lunch. He really doesn’t care about those losers.

I was just talking with my therapist yesterday about how we were sold a bill of goods to think having both a career and family was possible and how much damage it did to our minds in the effing 1980-90s! It’s not gotten any better.

I think we’re past posing this question.

Thank you. We worked w Merck to have our son vaccinated before it was approved for boys as he was 17 (and probably the first male to get the shot not in clinical trial). I then spoke before the FDA panel considering its approval for boys. All that work to potentially be undone by this idiot.

My husband died a terrible death from Head and Neck Squamous Cell. A marathon runner who spent his last days as a quadriplegic. All due to HPV. RFK will have to fucking go through me if he tries to take away HPV vaccines. My son won’t suffer like his father because he’s vaccinated. Daughter too.

“While it’s difficult to feel complacent, it’s far worse to be complicit.”
Thanks @margaretatwood.bsky.social for a thoughtful evening with some much-needed humor. Because, after all, even a Handmaid gets to laugh once in a while. And I’m sure I wasn’t the only one teary while singing Oh, Canada.

This is a powerful piece, tho had I directed it, I certainly wouldn’t include Reagan. He may have handled some diplomacy, but he was one of the architects of exactly where we are today. Delaying release of hostages so he could take credit, ignoring AIDS and supporting Contras. Dispicable politician.

I have multiple women friends who were or are engineers in automotive. Femology is a great Detroit org for female founders in the mobility world. We need more female designers and engineers. I hope that child finds her passion despite her caregiver putting limitations on her curiosity!

I’m waiting for all the people who will be (or will feel they are) released from the NDAs he’s forced them into over the years. And those whom he just verbally threatened. Once they start coming forward, I hope his reputation will finally collapse with his die-hard supporters. May not happen, but 🤞🏻.

They didn’t use a force this big to “extract” Maduro. WTAF?

@shrithanedar.bsky.social explain this vote!

It’s definitely playing out that way in Michigan. Anyone who thinks John James will protect our state from these land and water thieves is terribly naive.

Was it information or was it cash??

The ones who had that happen in the 70s are even worse.

According to @muellershewrote.com they’ve had the files for months after the administration shut down an investigation earlier this year. A cover-up of a cover-up.

She’s so independent, she wouldn’t dare say “happy holidays.”

Or willfully ignorant in order to protect your racism. That’s worse. The stupid people are often victims of the policies they voted for—under funding and vilification of education. The willfully ignorant are just awful people.

But how to eliminate Fox “News”? It is the scaffolding on which his campaign rose. Heck, we don’t even fact check presidential debates. One party runs entire campaigns on lies fed to the undereducated.

Cider House Rules and A Prayer for Owen Meany. Can’t get much better than those two.

I interviewed his partner, Janna, for my book on rock widows. They shared a true love and she helped save him when he decided to get sober. But she was not treated well after his death. She returned to Austin from her home in New Zealand for my book event.

I’ve driven on it! It’s small, but it’s a start. Located outside NewLab which is part of the larger Michigan Central campus. Significant investment by Ford and others. Some really cool mobility tech happening on that campus! Plus the reno of Michigan Central train station into a stunning space.
