Pumpkins symbolize prosperity, abundance and good fortune. Plant pumpkin seeds by the light of the moon, as you whisper your dreams. When the pumpkins ripen, your dreams will come true.

First, it was Georgia.
Now, it’s Arizona.

This President is trying to cast doubt on the 2020 elections in order to justify interfering in 2026.

We will not let him get away with it.

I've been covering Congress for the past decade on and off and I can objectively say the Congresscritters on the GOP side (particularly on the House side) are objectively more racist, antisemitic and conspiratorial than they were when I started.

I can’t even poke my head into this app without immediately seeing people whining and complaining about Democrats. As though that’s the most important thing to focus on. It’s exhausting. Aren’t y’all tired? This place is tedious. πŸ€¦πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ

Two mature Bald Eagles with white head and tail and brown body and wings are perching on an evergreen tree, with a clear blue sky behind them. One eagle is at the top of the tree and the other is on a branch a few feet below.

On this #TalonTuesday we have a nesting pair of Bald Eagles taking a break from making babies on a beautiful winter day. Their nest is in the same tree, just below them.

Other than every single time, never.

Seriously, you think we should go back to scythes? You think it's better to assemble every shoe by hand? You think things would work better if we had monks making our books?

Automation is incredible. You -- yes, you -- would literally be dead without it.

There were reporters in the room yelling out questions about it in the back, but Hegseth refused to call on them and never specifically addressed the bombing of the girls school.

UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE.

In their remarks, neither Pete Hegseth nor Dan Caine this morning addressed the girls school that was bombed.

They did not get A SINGLE QUESTION about it from people they called on in the room loaded with right-wing hacks.

A bunny runs excitedly down a beach at high tide, to a greenish bottle that has just been washed ashore. Inside the bottle is a rolled up message.

Joe accomplished so much in a short period of time, and the majority of Americans ended up being so ungrateful.

Joe Biden's biggest flaw was his modesty. Biden's reluctance to do self promotion about his presidential accomplishments left the door open for his critics to pretend he had none.
