She/her. Library Cataloger, quilter, bookworm. Now retired. Moderate, not a progressive. Still with her (Hillary & Kamala). Never Bernie. I believe in the horseshoe theory of politics. If you’re screaming Do Something, pass me by. No DMs.

Who decides what we do when Putin & Netanyahu disagree? Does that go to John Roberts?

a chocolate lab snuggles with a person on a sofa, laying on their lap with one front arm tucked around their legs. his face looks up at the person with enormous eyes, dilated with little rings of golden brown. his ears are back, and the result is one of the most effective begging faces we’ve ever seen.

Moose rests on a brown sofa, his chin tucked on a rawhide bone and the flap of one lip squished up by the couch cushion. he has one front paw extended out, and the other tucked into his body like a little chicken wing. he’s looking up a bit, showing a little sliver of the whites of his already-enormous eyes, making them look even bigger under his cutely furrowed eyebrows.

the big-eyed brown pup as a puppy. he’s sitting in a white bathtub, slightly damp. he’s mostly in shadow, but his eyes are like two glowing orbs in the center of his face, almost human in their coloring and shape.

This is Moose. He has very big eyes. They are the result of a rare and painless ocular condition. Doesn't seem to mind it. Makes his puppy dog face even more powerful. 13/10 (credit u/aGooseyMoose)

(We know his Disney princess eyes look fake, but we can confirm these photos are not AI generated)

a tan long-haired dachshund with incredibly floofy ears sits with his front paws on a window sill and his nose pressed up against the window. he's accompanied by his stuffed squirrel friend. their reflections stares back at them. Stevie the dachshund does not see the irony in watching for squirrels with his squirrel friend. he's too busy being locked in on the happenings outside his window.

This is Stevie. He's on squirrel watch. His stuffed friend is also a squirrel, but he's one of the good ones. 14/10 (IG: longdogstevie)

Thanks to your support on Friday, Thea got the first surgery she needed to correct her leg deformity! She’s now sporting the cutest pink cast, signed with love by her surgical team. She still has another surgery ahead of her, but is well on her way to walking comfortably again ❤️‍🩹

Imagine the reaction in the US if ~175 schoolgirls had been killed by a targeted Iranian missile. (Or anyone's missile.)

This is an atrocity.

Senate Republicans splinter over SAVE America Act's path as Trump calls for more revisions Some insist on trying to use a "talking filibuster" to break Democrats' will to block the elections bill. Others say it's unlikely to work. And one senator is proposing a third option.

I don’t see Senate Rs succeeding with the SAVE Act.

It’s a logistical nightmare.

But that doesn’t mean we can’t do our part.

Have a GOP Senator?

Call them and tell them to kill this bill.

You might think it’s pointless, but Rs are VERY nervous these days.

U.S. orders more diplomats to leave Middle East The State Department’s most recent directives apply to personnel in Turkey and Saudi Arabia, underscoring the ongoing threat posed by Iranian counterattacks.

The Trump administration ordered more U.S. diplomats to leave the Middle East, issuing an “ordered departure” for nonessential American staff and their families at the U.S. Consulate in Turkey after sending a similar notice to staff in Saudi Arabia.

Is this because they expect us to escalate, because they expect Iran to escalate, because they expect Israel to escalate, or for all three to escalate simultaneously?

Sure seems like they expect some kind of retaliation by Iran.

Wow. It's been out almost a month, but our Britain 1770 recap/entrance point episode is somehow the most popular episode we've done, barring the Prime Time collab. I guess that means it's good?

RAND Is Sunsetting Its Gun Violence Research Initiatives Amid Trump’s Cuts Experts lamented the think tank's closures as a loss for policymakers, advocates, and researchers who have relied on the data to prevent shootings.

The RAND Corporation has ended two major gun violence research initiatives. One project laid out the landscape of gun laws and evaluated evidence of their effectiveness. The other poured millions into gun violence research.

The closures are a byproduct of Trump’s federal funding cuts.

❗️The kamikaze drone that struck the British airbase RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus was equipped with Russian military hardware.

The drone contained a Russian-made Kometa-B navigation system, which was first identified in drones intercepted by Ukrainian air defenses in December.

Ohio temporarily blocked from using unclaimed funds for Browns stadium An Ohio judge temporarily blocked Ohio from transferring unclaimed funds to pay for a Cleveland Browns stadium and other projects.

Vivek Ramaswamy’s running mate, Rob McColley, was one of the leaders in raiding $600M in private, unclaimed funds and handing it over to a billionaire.

But today a court stopped him, finding that grabbing our funds to hand to a big donor, without any due process, likely violated the Constitution.
