Life can be very, very extremely unfair.

Me: Going to bed on time tonight. Going to be responsible, take care of myself, and start the week off balanced.

My ADHD: We absolutely MUST hyperfocus on bonsai for two hours...

@C0WB0YBLUES I came here specifically just to tell you to get tested for ADHD, so I'm glad you're on top of it already! 😂😬

@shipwreckshow It's not that easy everywhere. Every county has different rules & prices. It's $40 in mine. It was only that easy because you had access to the documents you needed and had a valid ID. Some of y'all are privileged and don't even know it.

@BasedTorba The problem is mostly planned obsolescence, not "foreign trinkets."

@josephsbool From what I've seen, they're working. Focused on survival only.

@mylifeasamanda What's up with these jobs, girl?

@PattyMurray Oh my God, that can't be allowed to happen!

@ChrisMurphyCT @Raffi_RC That's a helluva letter. Good on him.

My wife and our 10 yr old daughter have gotten completely distracted talking about different breeds of cats. 🤗🥰🧐

Y'all, Raffi is so pissed. We have to fix this.

Like, we had to fix it before - because shit could get real bad with *gestures broadly* - but we can't just sit here and let Raffi be this stressed because some of y'all don't know history.

Spec. Ed. isn't limited to your 1st thought either. It counts my 3 yr old with Apraxia - a significant speech delay. He gets half day services 4x/wk thru the school dist. that we can't find privately. You can't replace this program, I checked! Early intervention's worked wonders.

[Identity Theory @IdentityTheory]

15% of U.S. public school students receive special education. Schools that get federal funding must offer those services. Without SPED in schools, everyone's education suffers. Schools can't function without SPED. Closing the DoE guts SPED, harming all classrooms. Everyone loses.

I'm realizing that I haven't heard from some of you in months - some due to inactivity, but others because of the algorithm!
I am not super active in the other place, but it'd be nice to connect with more folks i miss! @katetorrey.bsky.social

[Kate Torrey 🏳️‍🌈 @torrey_kate]

Oh no ... This isn't good.

This isn't a game—we rely on NOAA to monitor extreme weather events. The prediction work NOAA scientists and staff do helps us protect billions in property and literally save lives. These proposed staffing cuts will make America less safe when the next disaster strikes.
