Cutting the cord irl=very bad TV😂😭

  CUTTING THE CORD IS HARD.

I cut the cord recently because I want to save money. I cannot afford to be so entertained. My entertainment budget was unnecessarily high.💰💰💰

Done. Paid the past due and was able to get rid of the television cable portion. I got an antenna in spite of the fact my house came with a huge antenna. (I don’t know if it is operable.) 

Now, I can watch free TV like we used to do. I mostly still watch SNL Seinfeld, King of Queens, Everybody Loves Raymond, Adventures of Old New Christine, etcetera, except that I cannot watch those programs because I no longer pay for cable TV. I can stream these shows and more but turning to the lineup just before bed was a habit of laughter to which I had become accustomed. I don’t ask for much.

So why can’t I just turn to these channels? These channels have paid licensing agreements with cable companies to broadcast these syndicated shows. I did not understand that these were not channels local to me. So no more Friends reruns and Seinfeld three times a day.

So I scanned for channels and watched Portlandia.

Cool. Most of the live TV are feeds local to other regions. I watched or tried to watch breaking weather during a storm. Good thing for You Tube because the signal kept pixilating on the channels scanned from the antenna.🙄

I ruined television for myself. That is cutting the cord.😭

All of that extra time I’ve reclaimed will be spent writing to you, here.😂

DEI hires are qualified for their jobs, end nepotism!

Now, we are fighting over memos. Lazy, sloppy, work. Sneaky, unprofessional, ragged, work cheapens the office.  The situation regarding the rescission of a memo versus a federal funding freeze has been quite dynamic and has caused significant confusion. In summary, while the memo that formally instructed the freeze has been rescinded, the underlying policy intent through executive orders might still be in place, leading to a complex situation where the exact impact on federal spending remains somewhat ambiguous. - **Initial Action**: The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Trump administration issued a memo ordering a temporary pause on all federal grants, loans, and financial assistance. This was intended to align federal spending with President Trump's policy priorities but led to widespread confusion as it affected a broad swath of federal programs, including school meals, cancer trials, and housing assistance for veterans.[](https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/1/29/...

Homemade Wet Cat Food

Image
Making homemade wet cat food can be a nutritious option if done carefully to meet your cat’s dietary needs. Here’s a basic guide on how to make it: Ingredients: • Protein Source (80-90% of the meal): Cats need high-quality animal protein. You can use: • Chicken (breast or thighs) • Turkey • Rabbit • Beef • Fish (occasional, not as a regular diet due to mercury concerns) • Organ Meat (5-10%): Essential for nutrients like taurine, which cats need. • Chicken liver or beef liver • Hearts (chicken, turkey) • Broth or water: To make the food moist and easier to eat. • Taurine supplement: This is crucial, as cats require taurine, which can be lost during cooking. Optional Add-Ins: • Egg yolks: For extra nutrients (cooked yolk). • Fish oil: Provides omega-3 fatty acids for skin and coat health. • Small amounts of vegetables: Such as pumpkin or peas (if your cat tolerates them). Steps: 1. Cook the meat: Boil or bake the meat without se...

Statement by President Obama on the Passage of the Middle Class Tax Cut Extension

Image
July 25, 2012 With the Senate’s vote, the House Republicans are now the only people left in Washington holding hostage the middle-class tax cuts for 98% of Americans and nearly every small business owner.  The last thing a typical middle class family can afford is a $2,200 tax hike at the beginning of next year.  It’s time for House Republicans to drop their demand for another $1 trillion giveaway to the wealthiest Americans and give our families and small businesses the financial security and certainty that they need.  Our economy isn’t built from the top-down, it’s built from a strong and growing middle class, and that’s who we should be fighting for.  ###
