Fucking. Honor.

A layout of two photos of a roose, top and bottom. The top is a rosebud with a few petals extended. It is a deep yellow and the edges of the petals look almost red or fuchsia. The second photo below is the rose fully bloomed. The edges go from a brighter pink to a delicate pink and the heart is a beautiful pale yellow.

The colors are hot pink, yellow, green, blue, orange, white, purple, and in between.

And exerpt from The Wonkette describing in West Virginia that the Trump administration costs are hitting food banks hard. Text reads: "In Charleston, Sara Busse of Trinity’s Table showed Reuters all that that her group recently received from the Ag Department: two boxes each of dried potato flakes and shelf-stable milk and two cases of vegetarian baked beans. Before the Trump administration began, the deliveries filled an 18-wheeler, she said. Now, the program may need to halt its meal service to senior groups altogether, she said. Martha Ross, 78, a nice lady having a meal at a community center in Charleston, noticed the tiny donations and joked, “I guess we’ll get real skinny.”
