Before this comes up: I am a liberal Democrat who believes in equity and hard working, coalition building, legislation producing actual progressives. If you're a fan of performative chaos agents who use that term, like the Squad or Sanders, we aren't going to get along well.

🎉🙌🏼BREAKING: The FTC just banned non-compete agreements.
The Federal Trade Commission has issued a final rule making it illegal for bosses to make workers sign noncompetes in any scenario, and voiding nearly all existing noncompetes.
This is a game changer for American workers.

Your friend wants to go out to lunch with you. They have a history of being demanding to wait staff, not rude, just demanding. They take advantage of every little offering from the restaurant.
Do you say yes or turn it down?

How often do we have to remind American women that, in Iran in the 70's, women there were just like us? They dressed normally, went to college, drove cars, had lives of their own. MUSLIM EXTREMISTS TOOK THAT ALL AWAY. Christian extremism will do the EXACT SAME THING.

This morning I got up and took Annika out first, alone. I stood outside and let myself feel the cool breeze and the strong sun on my face. I was resolute. I felt good.
At 9:10AM, I sent the final e-mail to work, confirming my immediate departure. No regrets, no trepidations. Just calm relief.

Conversation with my sister who is a psychologist today:
ME: I have a lot to tell you...
SIS: Can you make it quick, I'm busy.
ME: Okay, I gave notice at work, the environment became toxic, depressive and the lead doctor is a malignant narcissist.

I posted about job related depression recently. I've been watching STAR TREK:DISCOVERY's last season. What I love about Captain Burnham that sets her apart from the other Captains, is that she expresses so much joy in what she does. It's not just duty, It's fun and love. I need that. We all do.

Arguing against the use of profanity in the work environment, claiming it's unprofessional, is just pretentious conceit,
If you achieved an academic degree in your field, if you have years of experience in your field, if you are accomplished in your field, then you ARE a professional.

Haven't regularly posted in a while because.. well, I've been depressed. A few years back, one of my dogs went through surgeries I rehabbed her through. I was so successful, I went back to school to get licensed in Veterinary Medicine as an LVT to help dogs. I left a career gigging in film and TV..

Let’s face it, folks. Donnie’s not a smart man. The only wisdom that’s ever come out of his mouth required anesthesia, and his followers can’t be convinced otherwise, so it’s our duty to get out and vote. Our democracy depends on it.

Apparently Belgian Malinois are mythic dogs. Here's an example of a conversation I have repeatedly with strangers-
THEM: "Is that a Belgian 'mali-noise?' "
ME: "MAL-in-wah, and yes."
THEM: "Those are amazing dogs. They can do anything. I've never seen one in real life before."

As an Arizonan who lives about 40 miles from the border, this. And the people online I hear from who insist they know better turn out to always be from some midwest or southern non-border state.

Vicki with an eye @catmomdoSo many lies - so here's the truth from a local Texan...09:23 AM - Mar 22, 2024![I live in South Texas. I have watched our border for years. The one thing that really pisses me off is when some MAGA cult member who has been drinking from the right-wing propaganda hose for years tries to tell me what I have experienced, what I have lived. Here’s the reality…
Under Obama/Biden the border was its most peaceful in 20+ years. When Trump took office everything blew up, caravans, disgusting detention centers in shopping centers, horrific child separations. A paper quagmire that the Biden administration is still sorting out. Nobody working for Trump was serious or had a plan. They just escalated cruelty and didn’t do any of the paperwork. Like everything Trump did it was inept, incompetent, more harm than good.
Trump’s entire administration was a series of incompetent missteps. Covid, body bags, billions in misplaced or stolen stimulus, 8 Trillion added to the deficit, stock market crash, rising inflation, security breaches, loss of classified documents, fake electors sche...]()
![The border can not be closed. If it is closed it has a negative impact on US GDP of $2 Billion a day. Families live on both sides of the border. People cross the border everyday, each way, to go to work, school, volunteer.
Right wing ignorance supposes that the Mexico side of the border is a no-man’s land. It’s not, our border cities are half in the US and half in Mexico, divided only by a checkpoint. They are communities. Unfamiliar to some, but a way of life for us. Non-nuanced black and white thinking is why Republicans keep losing elections. Ignorance about the border, ignorance about women’s health, ignorance about the fascist threat that they are so hellbent on putting back in the White House so he can do more damage to our economy, security and standing in the world.
Do me a favor. Understand that reality is nothing like the Russia-fueled disinformation that is constantly spewed by Fox, Newsmax, OAN and all of the fear monger podcasts. It’s all nonsense. Life here isn’t perfect ...]()

I'm a proud Dog Dad to three girl dogs. An interesting conversation happened at work in regards to owners and dogs, and that the "majority" seem to prefer owning male dogs, so I have a question:
Do you prefer to own:

Marjorie Taylor Greene showed last night to the entire nation what an embarrassment she is.
I retired as a Brigadier General after serving 40 years; it's my patriotic duty to remove MTG from Congress.
Can you ECHO this spout and consider matching our average donation of $27.56 to defeat MTG?
