Bite me, Musk.

Progressive political commentator (print, radio, podcasts) for years. I post a lot: breaking news + legit info you can use, prone to snark. My mini Australian Labradoodle, Hamilton, has trained me well.

Now where's my trough of wine? 🍷🇺🇸🇨🇦

In his meeting with Volodymyr , President apologized for delays in security funding — blaming conservatives:

"I apologize for those weeks of not knowing what's going to happen in terms of funding, because we had trouble getting the bill that we had to pass … some of our very conservative members who were holding it up."

Nighty night.

I'll post news alerts should they come my way.

I'm in a mood, yes. I've been unable to do what I need to do bc of this dumb cold, so if I was cranky to you, apologies.

And btw, when I say I'm sorry for not replying, it's not bc I think you're dying for my pearls of wisdom, it's because I hate being rude and making anyone feel ignored. it's a thing with me.

Thanks for your get-wells. ❤️
