Loving the NM photos! In a few years when I retire I plan to move to NM to be closer to my brother and his family. Seeing your photos makes me excited about the move even though it’ll be hard to leave the Bay Area behind.

Ok, but when does she cook dinner, grocery shop, do laundry, get gum out of one kid’s hair, cleans muddy footprints tracked in by other kid, then breaks up a fight between the two kids over who has more cheerios (spoiler alert: they have the exact same amount), and takes the car for an oil change?

Bucking the longstanding tradition of bringing nurses candy, donuts, or bagels, some of our patients have started bringing us eggs from their backyard chickens and I’m totally here for that! #nursesky

So by β€œefficiency” he means taking sweeping action without study or forethought, then being forced by either court order or public outcry to reverse those actions at considerable cost in both actual dollars and manpower hours. Got it πŸ‘πŸ»

We should start sending knee pads to the offices of every dem who voted yea. If they’re gonna spend the next 4 years on their knees for the Musk-Trump presidency they might as well be comfortable.

I wish I lived in NY so I could NOT vote for Spineless Schumer. Every time I think things can’t get worse things actually get much worse.

In good news today, in California the ornamental cherry trees are blossoming, sweet broom is blooming along our highways, and patches of poppies and lupine are popping up.

So tfg’s administration’s plan to reduce egg prices, it includes $100 million investment in vaccinating chicken flocks against bird flu. Nowβ€¦πŸ€”β€¦I wonder, considering how virulently anti-vax MAGAS are (pun absolutely intended) how’re they going to feel about eggs from vaxxed chickens?

What a fucking stupid question! And for the record, if you’re reading this Mr. Zelensky, Americans absolutely do not care that you don’t wear a suit. Our president wears a suit and he’s an absolute clown.

β€œHey Mom, you gonna share some of that ramen or what?”

Note: despite their intense interest they did not get any ramen, not because I’m mean but because it had onions and garlic in it. #blueskycats #catpics
