Just to be clear:
"One state lawmaker in Great Bend believes someone might be targeting them."

This lawmaker believes that a letter addressed specifically to them *might* be targeted? Just maybe? Possibly?

Some #Kansas lawmakers worry letters with white powder could be targeted act

Political leaders in Kansas are trying to figure out what's next after suspicious letters showed up in the mailboxes of more than 100 elected officials this past weekend.

Kansas #Republican leaders called it a cowardly attempt to intimidate the legislature.

One state lawmaker in Great Bend believes someone might be targeting them.

The letter inside said 'Don't choke on your ambition'.

I got my hormone prescription! It should come in tomorrow so I can pick it up on Friday!

I shouldn't have alcohol for at least the next month though (not related to the hormones) so that's a bit of a bummer. Let's celebrate with sparkly water πŸ˜‚

I started getting random texts for "Steve", asking if I was still interested in that cabin at Big Bear Lake. I just blocked the number.

Does anybody understand how this scam is supposed to work? Is he going to give me money for a car I don't have? Is he trying to trick me into getting one and selling it to him? πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™‚οΈ

Am I the only person who thinks "ineffable" should be the polite version of "unfuckable"?

And not just the main focus, the only focus should be on what it takes for Ukraine to win.

I agree with LTG (R) Ben Hodges and the NATO Chief that it isn't enough to say we support Ukraine but want them to win. @potus should follow this lead. #StandWithUkraine️

@JRBuckley @sentient_water HOW IS THIS REMOTELY SURPRISING??!? Has everyone forgotten β€œgrab them by the πŸˆβ€β¬›β€?? Have we forgotten his comments about dating Ivanka if she wasn’t his daughter??

For me, a ⭐ is someone quietly saying "I really liked that." A boost is speaking to the room, "Listen up, y'all need to hear this."

@UnCoveredMyths My thoughts exactly. Often I feel people are being personal or vulnerable & a ⭐ says "Hey someone heard you but I'm not gonna broadcast this OK?"

Also a boost & a ⭐ means double like in my book.

On #Juneteenth weekend, Governor Greg Abbott vetoed a new registry that could have improved outcomes for sickle cell disease patients. The bill's sponsor called the move ”petty, bullshit #politics.”’

I'm curious why does mastodon (& I assume the Fediverse) not really use or value stars ⭐? I've had it explained that they don't do anything (then why have them?) But more to the point would you eat at a place that had ZERO stars ⭐ on TripAdvisor?
