Apologies in advance but since I've adored Corgis since somewhere around the Jurassic, I am compelled to follow you. (May not be able to have one or several because of the pets I have, but I can enjoy seeing them online.)
Pupdate on one of the coolest ladies Mom knows:
Being a dick is still a constitutionally protected right, even for women in Alabama!

This GOP representative wants to take land away from Virginia in response to their redistricting vote
The only correct response. Thank you!
I want one!
Smidge is being ridiculous.
Again.
No law enforcement officer operating in Connecticut—federal, state, or local—can wear a mask on duty. ICE and CBP agents have to show their faces and badges. And when an officer assaults someone recording them, commits false imprisonment, false arrest, or malicious prosecution, they lose immunity.
Agreed. I would add that I think it's important to keep these books in the public eye and have conversations that reckon with them in multiple ways and ask what they can teach us if we listen properly, and how we might grapple with our societal issues.
One of my all-time favorites is: To Kill A Mockingbird
People say it's racist... it's based on America's dark past & historically accurate
If you don't like certain books, it's simple... DON'T READ them, no one is making you
#Books are a form of free speech & IMO should be protected under the 1A
Excellent question. This Yank would also like it to be answered properly.
Canadian here. How can a judge overturn the will of the people? They voted for this. How is this legal in the American system?
It’s amazing how un-American they have become.
They want to pick the voters.
It’s not a democracy they want.
They don’t even hide it anymore.
Virginia should protest this weekend.
BREAKING:
A Virginia judge just temporarily halted the implementation of the state's new voter-approved redistricting measure.
Election officials cannot move forward now unless the ruling is overturned by a higher court.
Virginia's AG has vowed to appeal the ruling.
Trump always appoints questionable people.
Former Secretary of the Navy John Phelan never served in the military but did fly at least twice in Epstein's plane.
His successor, Hung Cao, claims to have been “blown up” in combat. But there is no Purple Heart or other evidence to support such claim.
Good Lord, what an absolutely corrupt, utterly shambolic load of old codswallop this "administration" (sic) has perpetrated upon our country and our world. Fellow U.S. Americans: I spent formative years living abroad as a child and can say that as hated as we were then, it's likely much worse now.
My G-d
The Navy goes from an incompetent in John Phelan who was appointed because he was a Trump donor
To Hung Cao-the apparent king of stolen valor who believes parts of America are being overrun by..witches and wiccans
Heaven help our sailors fighting Iran-on active duty in the Strait of Hormuz

The woman in the blue shirt is looking at man is disbelief. The people are lablelled: Woman in red - Pope Leo Man - Anglican Church Woman in blue - King Charles
100% agreement with you! (Clarity only, I'm cis-het but know, love and/or am related to many people who are not.) I'm so sorry that guy approached you at all. What an entitled git!
And by the way, your ink is impressive and I am envious because I can't do tattoos. (Family medical history.)
My tattooed face looking cooler than dickheads who make unwanted approaches to judge women at busstops
Sat minding my business at the bus stop wearing the internationally recognised “do not speak to me” symbol headphones.
Older guy signals me take them off, points at my face tattoo and asks, “Does your boyfriend fancy you with that?” [1/3]
1. My face tattoo is cool as fuck
2. I am very gay
3. Fuck off*
*What I actually said was: “Well, I like it,” then gave him my best go away stare. [2/3]
But seriously, fuck that guy - don’t approach random women (or anyone) on their own just to make weird, uncomfortable comments about their appearance. [3/3]
