You can still look forward to Indian mango season in May.

A much easier solution is just to tax the rich.

My kids are currently doing the thunderstorm/tornado equivalent of flushing ice cubes. Do you think they will cancel school or have an early release? Seems like an early release would be sending everyone out in the middle of the mess.

The baby talk thing drives me crazy.

I have a child who chose to use they-them pronouns in middle school and chose to wear different kinds of clothes. They experienced almost universal accommodation in our suburban community. It doesn’t have to be a struggle.

I am from the East Bay, and I have traveled the world, and whenever I go home I still marvel at how beautiful the city is. Best city in the world.

@beyer.house.gov @repwalkinshaw.bsky.social The Luther Jackson Middle School food pantry in Falls Church is raising money for Thanksgiving meals for families in need. We need your support! We have so much to be thankful for! app.givebacks.gives/ljmsfoodpant...

My daughter also might like the school lunch but doesn’t like rushing after waiting in line. Universal free lunch can speed up the line if you skip the checkout process (like typing in a PIN.)

Those look like some pretty high-quality cats for coming in a bag from Sprit Halloween.

Calicos be caliclin’

It's just an intimidation tactic. Failing to pay government employees for the furlough also means all the Congressional and White House staffers don't get paid either.

Dear mothers of children on the autism spectrum, please don’t think to yourself for even one minute that Tylenol is the cause of autism and had you avoided it, your child would have been different. It is an agonizing lie.

Hard pass on Golden Girls tribute, would rather hear acceptance speeches!

My kids say the good thing about the phone bans is that everyone is off their phones and they talk to each other.

Otto Warmbier.

Yes! Dear people of DC, try to have at least one real friend who will tell you to cut the threads on the vents of your suit jackets and skirts. Also for men with chinos, that the button on your back pocket is undone.

I guess they all just want more chances to buy the dip.

People of America: get you a Congressperson who wants to pass legislation that addresses your needs and uses your tax dollars wisely.

Congress is moving to slash GAO’s funding by 50%—gutting their own watchdog. The GOP and Democrats have long depended on their work to make informed decisions to root out waste, fraud, and abuse.

Slashing a nonpartisan, independent legislative agency? Not a good move.

I had a terrible time with this system and gave up on using it. The company has its name on an office building in my town and I shake my fist at it every time I go by.

She performed Say It Ain’t So with Weezer and I realized I have listened to that song a thousand times and never knew what it was about.

I mean, have fun blaming Biden when there is 4 ft of water in your house and no one is coming to help.

Federal law empowers the GAO to sue the President when he unconstitutionally steals Congress's power of the purse.

So of course DOGE is going after GAO just as Trump 2.0 is gearing up to unconstitutionally steal Congress's power of the purse.

Pardon me, but I think we have the same husband.

And a nature preserve.

One of my kids was so bored in the pandemic years that she allowed me to read every one of my childhood favorite book series with her every night and she loved many of them. We also read newer stuff. I love sharing books with my kids.

Here is my research on childhood vaccines: I didn’t die from measles and neither did my kids. Case closed!

They are wonderful audiobooks as well, can be borrowed from the library.

The U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, which works to prevent and end homelessness, costs just one half of the drone shot down by Houthis based on leaked intelligence from Hegseth. Also shut down by DOGE. I’d sure rather have the homelessness folks working still.

10 MQ-9 Reapers cost the same as the annual budget request for the Institute of Museum and Library Services, which was shuttered by DOGE. Personally I’d rather have libraries. I know it doesn’t work this way though.
