Nothing says "the economy is going great and everything is more affordable" like white collar jobs offering webinars about penny pinching.

I've discovered something about myself: I wasn't made for a daily commute. I simply have insufficient capacity for drivers who do dumb shit. I run across even one and I'm tapped out, and the odds of running across one are far too high. Work from home is just ideal for me.

Sunshine and a lap. #catsofbluesky

Skittle (left) is still leery of Delilah, who just wants to play and cuddle. This was the final configuration after Delilah slid and stretched her way as close as possible. Only lasted a minute or two, but maybe someday. #catsofbluesky #cats

Our new addition to the family, Delilah. Just a sweetheart. A year and a half old mama of three ready for some quiet.

Republicans: "We don't care about feeding children, the working poor, or the disabled, we don't care about skyrocketing prices for ACA health insurance, but you bet your ass we're going to close the hemp loophole because we can't abide adults being able to choose a different product for fun."

Tariffs xkcd.com/3073

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Happy Liberation Day to all my fellow Americans! Like you, I'm super excited to have more of my money liberated from me by this clown show of an administration. 🙄

Lazy Sunday Skittle.

I don't disagree with the sentiment, but one thing that keeps coming up about these situations is "these people [being laid off] are your neighbors". Yes. That's the case for all of these layoffs of "wasteful federal employees". They're all someone's kids/neighbors/families.

@jaythrash.bsky.social I need your Tiki Tuesday drinks on here, please!

Skittle is very patiently awaiting her dinner. I mean, sure, every time I move she leaps up meowing hopefully but that's admirable patience for a hungry kitty.

I care less whether what Musk did was or wasn't a Nazi salute and more that he's amplifying and espousing far right content and deplatforming anything he disagrees with. Maybe it was an "awkward, autistic gesture" 🙄, but he sure often sounds like a Nazi.

Please accept this Skittle photo on this trying day.
