At Largest ICE Detention Camp, Staff Bet on Detainee Suicides, AP Reports Camp East Montana has received several 911 calls in the span of five months about immigrants trying to harm themselves.

That’s amazing! But my brain gets overwhelmed with all the choices in the cereal aisle, so this might be too much for it. Do they have personal guides? 😂

I’ve been using a $20 sunlamp for years. I use it year-round.

When I hear the opening “Hello, Listener”, I feel as if I’m in my own semi-autonomous pleasure dome having human narratives streamed directly into my auricles. Yes, please! “Horror stories, sci-fi, and strange fiction for a maladapted species”

The Kentucky Supreme Court sided with our people, public education and the law today by ruling that the 2022 Republican-led House Bill 9 allowing charter schools is unconstitutional. Taxpayer dollars should stay with our already underfunded public schools, and now they will.

There’s a new one out called The Hexings you might like.

The Silt Verses was so perfect. 😭

Episode 10 was soooo good. And the show is even better the second time thru. 💕

How is Metallica almost as carnival sex music as Missy Elliot? 😦

At the Bottom of the Garden, Call to the Dark, The Grimoire Diaries.

I’m intrigued already! I have a semi-traumatic memory of collecting conch shells as a child many, many years ago. Afterwards, we boiled them up and pulled the poor conchs out to keep their shell. Their curled bodies really freaked me out.

What’s it called so I’ll know when I hear it? I love the show!

They had my favorite brand on sale the other day, so I bought 5 of them. I give mine about 20 minutes out of the fridge before eating (if I remember). 😍

Cheese and apples were my go-to for years. Then one day, I was just over it. Cold smoked salmon is my new steady.

If it makes you feel any better, parents are using that opt out to keep their kids from being taught “alternative history” and other MAGA bs. We can’t top their cruelty, so we have to be creative with kindness. At least that’s what I keep telling myself. Over and over again. 🫤

SNAP benefits keep those bodegas open.
