A “children’s book” about a cop who points his gun at everything because that’s the only thing he knows how to do.

“Hello” said the hungry caterpillar. The police man pointed his gun at the caterpillar. The caterpillar squeaked and ran away. “I guess he won’t be my friend either” said the policeman sadly. He holstered his gun and walked further down the road still feeling so very alone.

Abortion reached its lowest point since Roe under Obama/Biden because the goal was not to punish women, but to address inequality issues and have policies like health insurance covers birth control so that abortions wouldn’t be needed to start with.

The "prolife" movement has shown itself to be a nauseating fraud bent on punishing low income, non-white women.

Drive time for abortions are longest in low-income, diverse areas across U.S.:

@Snowshadow @TonyStark I was ruminating on this today, and how absurd and cruel it is to withhold healthcare from pregnant women. They should have all the healthcare.

Do you think gas stoves are "better" for cooking?

Are you sure you know why you think that? www.npr.org/2023/10/17/1183551603/gas-stove-utility-tobacco

@susiemagoo@mstdn.social avatar

@stux This always happens places that become desirable, and people move to more affordable places, which are many, if having a house is more important than living near this or that. People who want to own their home and live life that way(count me as one of them) can find a place to do that. Might not be near the parents in the sweet desirable neighborhood.

As an individual, gender can be a blast. But as a society, gender has no purpose at all, other than to restrict and oppress in one fashion or another. I am misgendered every time I go out in public where people do not know me. I don't care at all, because THEY DONT KNOW ME AND DONT NEED TO KNOW MY GENDER. But they have to guess to address me, and then I have to make them feel better when they get it wrong, then realize when I speak that I am not "male". Meanwhile...

Corruption is a system of concentrated gains and diffused costs: cheaters make a lot of money, and their victims each lose a little. The cheater has a much larger pool of money to spend on keeping the scam going, and the victims need to pay again to fight the cheater.

You cannot own a house or other building and care for it and maintain it without the work of immigrants, even if you never directly hire one yourself. I live in the dead center of the country, no where near a border, and it is true entirely here and everywhere.

@rustoleumlove @ai6yr she’s adorbs, my favorite version of doggos! Her nails are long enough to be pushing her toes out of whack, which I understand is very uncomfortable. Our pitties have all been horrible about getting nails clipped, many treats to get them in the door of the groomer, but when nails are trimmed so they don’t press the toes up, pups are definitely more cheerful! The best treat for this has been cream cheese & salami roll ups, before and after. 🥰

For the price I paid for this modal , I expected these t-shirts to last a lot longer than nine months. I could have bought organic cotton for way less!

I babied these , never put them in the dryer, took good care of them and only wore them when going out, which wasn’t very often.

It’s a lot of work to have the fabric (not seams) fall apart so soon. I still like them, but they’re now suitable only as pyjama tops, unfortunately. @sewing

Reluctantly awake. Lots of rain overnight, I was awake for some time and heard it drumming against the window. I finally fell back asleep, my right hand was on top of Ginza and the left was under the blankets underneath her. I could feel her softly purring.

But somehow I got up when the alarm woke me. I've eaten breakfast and fed Ginza hers. She's now snoozing on the upper perch in her cat tree and looks adorable as always.

Me? I'm far from looking adorable.
