Not surprised by Sinema. Called herself: Maverick/Own Person. She is not a closeted republican.
Since her initial campaign story, ⬆️attendance w Wall Street & pharma donors. Shifted away from family campaign story.
Sure many gop do this. But as a Dem, it’s more hypocritical. Also hypocritical, Staff sent out a statement early on when she faced constructive criticism. Claiming Dems were sexist towards her with any questioning.
Let’s not critique wardrobe over her voting record.
Politics-Avenatti-Media Gaggle🤷🏽♀️
Small sliver of wealthy white elite Dems & media fawned over Avenatti. Both Trump/Avenatti endangered democracy/humanity/Constitution.
Working stiff Dems KNEW better. Both parties have scourge of white wealthy elites/media/celebrity glitz. #Maga pushing Trump while calling out #Avenatti🤷🏽♀️ Will any of us in 🇺🇸 learn⁉️

He moved from southern climates to a wee bit colder. He loves to chase squirrels. The squirrels always have the last laugh. This little boy is still adjusting. Joyful days. Thankful he joined us. #Rescue #Dogs #Autumn

Mastodon disabled.social has been a welcoming experience. Each day I understand a little more. I’ve been cross pollinating w/ a range of instances. I’ve gone into topics, books & new & old pursuits. Feels like a chance to explore. I don’t know 3/4 of how this universe operates. But it’s very relaxing. It’s a healthy respite when im done w/ work. A safe & familiar space. Thank you

25.11.2022 23:56Thanks.Throwing this out here, I understand it’s slim there is an anserw, that’s ok. Just figured I’d give it a shot.
My mastodon instance is @AmandaGill22
How to I follow someone at @InsertName@mastodon.sdf.org. ? It directs me to put in email & password. Then it says the email or password are invalid. That whole rabbit hole 😉🤣I’ve triple checked. Anyway, any ideas? Thank you. No biggy. Just confused. I didn’t think using this instance ( disabled.social) would silo me away from @mastodon.sdf.org. 💕🤣💕

24.11.2022 17:16Annie says hello, meow #cats. She is thankful the lurking #dog is not around🐶🐈🙀I’m enjoying seeing #dogs & #cats #animals #Parks & #nature images in my timeline. All my photos I used to post say 502, 2 smidgens over the mastodon size limit on my phone.🤣🤣
So I can’t post as freely unless I spend tedious time editing. So I’m thankful to enjoy ya’lls artwork, photos, dogs & nature images. Even saw #BabyYoda. Here’s my dog Peggy, I did it. Posted easily🤣🤣

Havent closed the door on other apps or platforms. Still trying to cross pollinate with ease & joy. Will be looking at #PostNews. But also enjoying it here.
Love a variety of discussions, news, politics, science, education, nature, arts. Chances to learn, create & explore. Hoping for ease🤣❤️🩹😉 Maybe I will settle on 2 or 3.
