Ron DeSantis Drops Out of Presidential Race and Endorses Trump

The Florida governor, who once appeared to be Donald Trump’s most daunting challenger, ran a costly, turbulent campaign that failed to catch on with Republican voters.

This story is a balm for the soul. It’s charming and queer and everything my broken heart didn’t even know it needed.

It warmed up just enough to rain on top of the snow, thus melting the top layer and then refreezing it into a solid sheet of ice. This is one of the only scenarios in which I'm grateful we were out well before the rest of the morning crowd. The am commute is gonna be a shit show.

Happy Monday! Last night we made lucky lemon piglets, and unless some New Year's Ghosts visited the bosses, today is the first day of my last year at this miserable job.

2023 destroyed me to the point that the bullshit is no longer worth the security. 2024 will be about building the bridge to a new life in 2025. Happy New Year!!!
