Rustynaerduwell's JournalI will only say THANK YOU! to my DU community. Marcy thanks you, too.
You came through for both of us.
Thanks to the wonderful people here who are helping an injured rat get better!
Last ditch effort, I decided to ask for help here at DU to get an injured rat some needed surgery. You guys came through! I'm hafway to the goal. Her surgery is scheduled for Wed, Aug 31st. Send her some love and wish us luck.

Help save Marcy the Hero Rat (Orig posted in General Discussion)
I posted the following on Facebook. The response has been underwhelming:
"So this rat was living under the deck of a nearby restaurant that had closed after the pandemic. She was obviously a domestic pet rat that escaped or was let go. She had lived there for over a year and a half. She survived two winters, multiple traps and a visit from the Orkin man. She also survived an animal attack but was left with a bad eye injury. Now that the restaurant is open, she could not stay. She also would certainly not survive another winter, so I took her in. I have all ready spent a ridiculous amount of money just to give her a good home. Now she needs surgery to remove her eye. Apparently, it's not all that rare an operation for pet rodents. But it is not cheap. She is well habitated to me. She knows her name and comes when I call her. She is a survivor and she deserves to live out a good life like any pet. I am asking anyone that can to donate to the gofundme fundraiser page I have set up. If you can't donate, then at least, please, share this post. Thanks."
I got a few thumbs up, several raspberry emoji and a couple shares. I got one $5 donation.
I am a retiree as of today! I am now "living on a fixed income" so I could use all the help I can get. I'm asking the DU community to show that rats, too, are worthy of compassion.

I know she's just a rat, but she has earned a good life. Thank you, Shane.
Nobody wants to help my rescued injured (domesticated) rat. Her name is Marcy.

Would TFG bring the Country a whole lot less trouble if he ran and lost
than if he wasn't allowed to run? Especially if he lost bigly
I made this meme and put it on FB. The wrong people liked it
For all the wrong reasons. It was supposed to be sarcasm. It was a response to the Jason Aldean video. Trumpers didn't get that. It was liked and shared by people who agreed with it. WTF is wrong with people?
"Try that on our Streets". An anwer to J. Aldean
Bring your torches to our streets
Scream "You will not replace us" under our street lights
Look for some drag queens to beat
Ya think that's cool, act a fool if ya like
Cuss out a gay couple, spit in their face
Stomp on a protester, beat him up
Yeah, ya think you're a proud boy
Try that on our Streets
See how far ya make it down the road
Around here we take care of our own
You cross that line, it won't take long to find out
For you to find out, I recommend you don't
Try that on our Streets
Got a gun your Grand Dad gave you?
Big deal, no one's trying to take it
Well, that fly might be big shit in a small town
If ya can't be a big man you can fake it
Good luck here on our Streets
Ooh,ohh
Try that on our Streets...
Is it just me, or does anyone else believe this whole path by the SCROTUS 6
was planned out, discussed and initiated by them long before the last three were put on the court?
Why do so many Republican policies and ideas lead to more people dying?
And it runs through the full spectrum of governance. Vaccines, guns, abortion, immigration...They have nothing to do with each other, but the Republican answer always leads to more death.
It really is a death cult.
Trump's careless, messy handling TS/SCI/etc docs tells me another thing I haven't seen pointed out:
How absolutely confident he was that a successful coup would occur come Jan 6th.
