UNIVERSITY CITY DOG ALERT -- did anyone lose a dog near Heman Park? This puppy followed us home while we were walking our dog (who looks weirdly like this dog). She has a collar but no ID tag. Email me if you know anything. Serious replies only. Dog is currently safe with us #stl
I would really like to get this dog back to its rightful owner. *This post is meant just for people in the U City/St Louis area*. The dog is not for adoption, we only want to find her owner. I'd rather not make a local post this public but it seemed necessary!
Strangely, today is the seven year anniversary of when we adopted a shelter dog who my daughter named Twizzle.
We've been calling this visitor TJ -- aka Twizzle Junior -- so if this is your dog and you would like her to have a less humiliating name, please get in touch!
My dog Twizzle (right) with our unexpected overnight guest!
Very happy to report that the owner of the lost dog has been FOUND and she is back at home! It was a pleasure and adventure having her in my house but I am so relieved!

The opening to Biden's SOTU made me feel I'd done right by calling this show @gaslitnation because this just isn't true or is deeply misleading in its presentation, and the denial of objective reality is painful. patreon.com/gaslit
Biden is no different than Trump, Obama, or any POTUS in my lifetime in the way he crows about the economy doing well, because the standard is whether the economy is doing well for billionaires and corporations, not whether regular folks can get by. patreon.com/posts/bonus-st…
Under Biden, we've seen the largest upward transfer of wealth in history. We have the most powerful plutocracy in history. This is a result in large part of changes brought by covid, so this crisis was not created by Biden. But it exists under him, and he denies its severity.
"Trump lost, but the coup won. The only part of the coup that was defeated was Trump himself. The damage and infiltration and elite criminal impunity and cruelty live on." -- @gaslitnation

In this episode of @gaslitnation, we give seven examples of how the coup succeeded. Unfortunately, there are more, but these are the major factors:
1) Insurrectionists remained in the House and now are being installed on top committees
