I still keep track of how many days since the January 6th insurrection; I just have had too much going on to keep posting, mainly depression. It's justifiable: my dog passed in June, one of our cats is sick, my job sucks, our apartment sucks, & trump is making it hard to finish my master's degree.

Remember: trump has zero respect for the military. To him, they are just pawns to play his games.

SHOCK REPORT: Desperate sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have tried to jump overboard amid an extended Middle East deployment, as families sound the alarm over severe mental health struggles, exhaustion, food shortages, water contamination, deteriorating conditions, + more, per Military Times.

Any fellow grad students feel misled by their university? I could have cut back at work and taken classes full-time to finish before losing my Grad PLUS loans. The university had to know this, and yet they never said a thing! Now I'll have the debt, but no degree, which cuts my earning potential.

Just a reminder: "No-skill jobs" do not exist. Every job requires some level of basic skill. Every. Single. One. "No-skill jobs" is terminology created to justify paying people far less than a living wage and is used by those who think $7.25 is acceptable for anyone they consider to be inferior.

Unless something changes, my Grad PLUS loans will end at the end of this year and I will have to drop out of my graduate program. I will be 2/3 finished with a master's degree but will not be able to continue for the last 4 classes. All because of the orange piece of shit and his OBBBA.

If I’m going to get health advice from a former heroin addict with no medical training it will be Keith Richards.

It's funny that some leftists are so arrogant and demeaning toward anyone in the middle that they fail to realize they are nearly the same as the right. And it's shocking how many leftists resort to insults and criticism rather than facts and empathy. This is why people will not vote for a leftist.

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

When my cat Loki passed in 2022, we had some scuffles between our other two cats. Loki had been their mediator, but they mostly sorted it out and tolerated each other. Now that my dog has passed, they are at it again. Plus the two sisters my dog helped to rescue are also having their own scuffles.

No injuries. Just a lot of hissing, growling, and angry meows. My DiNozzo tries to break up the sisters, so that's helpful. I have to be the one to break up Sadie and him. I love my cats, but Sadie can be quite a bitch, Callisto is a psycho, DiNozzo is a Mama's boy, and Lyra is...mostly normal.

Fauci accuses Rand Paul of having an "unhinged obsession with calling for my prosecution" and of making "repeated slanderous comments," then says "although it pains me to do so... under advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the 5th Amendment to refrain from answering your questions."
