So many Houston dogs have this story. Great dog, dumped for divorce/money/moved/cuter puppy/etc. She is lucky to have found you so quickly. Praying the potential adopters work out.

I'm a literal journalist who has lived through a lot of history.
The way you "send a message" is through organizing, protesting, voting in primaries, advocating, donating, not donating, etc.
What you do on presidential-election day is CHOOSE WHO WILL BE IN POWER. It's not for messaging.

I appreciated @adamkotsko.bsky.social's piece, and he gives us a lot to ponder. But beyond standardized testing, the rise of charters and corresponding evisceration of public ed, the chasm btwn what happens in rich vs poor schools...we're seeing decades' worth of chickens coming home to roost, tbh

That is high. It is $8.16 in TX, but I can usually find a coupon for 3 12-packs for $15 (or less)in the grocery store app, as long as I am not fussed between Coke, Dr Pepper or Pepsi products.

Hey Americans, feeling politically powerless? You have an election tomorrow. Fascists are targeting those boring state and local positions and using them for everything from abortion restrictions to book bans to criminalizing trans healthcare. It's up to you to stop them.
