I love dogs, books, and coffee. History and trivia buff. If you ask me, you need a bigger garden. Kindness is my favorite.

Trump’s War on Iran Could Screw Over US Farmers The Middle East supplies a huge amount of the world’s fertilizer. Conflict in the region has sent prices soaring ahead of the critical spring planting season.

there's a lot going on right now but did you know a massive amount of the world's fertilizer flows through the middle east, and did you know that that fertilizer needs to be shipped to the us *right now* for planting season, and uh did you know we are at war with iran

Unprecedented activity at the Whipple Building today. Multiple shipments of black Chevy Tahoes and a load of building materials. Never before, not even during *peak surge days*, have we seen so many vehicles delivered at once.

Are these the actions of an agency preparing to vacate the cities?

DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:

Voters as “Votors”
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"

And, it included a non-party in the caption.

These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.

A dog who has been cruelly filled with ten and twenty pound notes by her local bank, and is wondering what she is more annoyed by: people taking money out of her stomach, or the fact that I have just made the joke, "Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read. On the plus side, you can sometimes withdraw cash."

Two photos side by side. On the left is a snarling grey wolf with the words "What you think you said"; on the right is a black-grey dog standing on its head looking like a doofus and the words "What we all heard."

That it will stop repeatedly and restart at the beginning, the subtitles will be in Japanese when you asked for English, and the final scene will be a cliffhanger from another movie.
