One day, Billy, this will all be just a blip in forever. We’ll be lying side by side under the bluest skies in your meadow full of wildflowers, and we’ll laugh about the time we were apart.
Because the days that feel so impossibly long, the years that tick by without you, in the end, will surely be the shortest part of our story.
A separation that feels so endless from here will one day feel so brief.
And in the meantime, we fight, we live, we love, we find joy, and we have the most fun we can.
And on the hardest days, that joy might be something we stumble upon, something brief, something small. But we’ll find it somehow, because of you.
I know you’re there, full of hope, full of life, cheering us on, willing us to make the most of it. And I would hate for you to see our lives play out any other way.
To give you a life here you would love and be proud to be part of. Because you are still a part of it. Even if you cannot be here. Even if you cannot have it.
Happy Halloween, Billy. My little Ray Stantz. 🎃
Please help me reach 80K by NYE. For Billy: justgiving.com/page/billysba… ❤️🩹

Danny Ellerd was so ill that jail refused to take him. He weighed just 92 pounds, and an infected hand was threatening his life.
In 2021, after years of addiction and homelessness, two bounty hunters found him on outstanding warrants.
He says his hand was so swollen from injecting drugs that they couldn’t handcuff him.
At the jail, a nurse insisted he needed a hospital instead.
Doctors saved his hand, and his life.
After treatment, Ellerd entered recovery through Hope Is Alive.
He later enrolled at Oklahoma State University, studying Computer Information Systems while working and managing a recovery home.
He graduated with a perfect 4.0 GPA.
By October 2026, he reported five years of sobriety, two college degrees and a job helping people move out of homelessness.
He also wrote a book called Recovery Is Possible.

Wow, @VivekGRamaswamy made this a whole lot worse for himself and everyone else
Amy Acton's stepfather's surviving biological daughter spoke to The Daily Mail when they knocked on her door in Ohio, while sobbing.
She said: She believed Amy's story, because her father raped her sister more than once (the victim in this 1974 indictment); she remembered Amy lived in a tent with Donna and Cledith; it's been terrible for her family to see Vivek's ad run in Ohio; and she heard rumors her father had victimized even more young girls.

I need to ask for your help again.❤️ First, I want to say something important. My GoFundMe has now passed 50% of its goal. FIFTY PERCENT.
I genuinely cannot believe the kindness and generosity people have shown me. Friends, family, fellow musicians, people who have followed my career for years, people who found me through my family's story, and complete strangers.
You've helped make it possible for me to begin fighting this terrible disease, and I will never be able to thank you enough.
But I also need to be honest about something
**As incredible as that 50% milestone is, I'm still a very long way from being able to afford everything this fight is going to require.**
Even with medical insurance and financial assistance, the costs of cancer treatment are overwhelming. And this isn't a fight that's going to be over in a few weeks or months.
It's going to be a long road.
I've been thinking about something lately.
Between all my social media accounts, there are more than 100,000 people following along.
It occurred to me that if even half of those people contributed just ONE DOLLAR, that would be another $50,000.
Think about that.
One dollar.
I know times are tough. I know not everybody can donate. And I completely understand that. But if you're able to spare a dollar, or five dollars, or simply share my fundraiser with someone who might be able to help, it really does make a difference.
I'm not asking anyone to give more than they can afford. And if you've already donated, PLEASE know how incredibly grateful I am. Sharing this again would mean just as much.
I'm doing everything I can to get better.
I'm following my treatment plan. I'm showing up for the appointments. I'm taking the medications. I'm fighting like hell.
And I'm doing it because I want to be here for my daughter. For my family. For my friends. And for all the music and life I still have ahead of me.
Thank you for helping me get this far.
I just need a little more help getting through what's ahead. ❤️

Bray Couple Remembered as Parents Who Carried Unbearable Grief Laid to Rest with Their Children
Bridget Biddy O’Brien and James Jamie McGinn were laid to rest today with their children Jordan and Holly after years of deep loss. They were found dead on 21 October 2026 at their home in Bray’s Cois Cairn estate. Biddy, 45, was in bed and Jamie, 38, was in the garden.
Gardaí ruled out foul play and treated the deaths as personal tragedies. Their funeral took place today at St Anne’s Church in Shankill before they were buried together with Jordan and Holly in Springfield Cemetery in Bray.
Jordan was four and Holly about two when they died in a 2017 fire in Clondalkin while staying with Biddy’s cousin Annmarie. Annmarie, her young daughter and unborn baby also died. Biddy was the only survivor, suffering severe burns and missing the children’s funerals.
At today’s Mass Fr Michael O’Kelly said the family had suffered more than any family should. Biddy never fully recovered her old joy and was haunted by not being able to say goodbye. Yet she never lost her kindness to others who were struggling.
Jamie carried heavy pain but was remembered as lively, hardworking and generous. They lived for each other after the children were gone. Today they rest together again. May they find the peace that was so hard to hold in this life. Rest in peace Biddy, Jamie, Jordan and Holly.

I created this photo using recent research so it relaxes your brain when you pause to look at the details. I'd so love to hear which is your favourite item in this collection (mine are the striped curlew feathers).
As I'm sometimes too unwell to post here & the algorithm punishes creators who don't post every day, it would help so much if you could maybe RT my photo. Many thanks 🌿

What we have collectively achieved in the past year and a bit has been incredible. And Billy. Beautiful Billy. As the clocks go back, for the third time I am finding myself retracing our steps, reliving your suffering, replaying your diagnosis, remembering your trauma, I wanted to share these words from Professor Darren Hargrave from UCL and GOSH.
This reminds me why I do what I do now. And maybe a reminder to those of you reading, why you are along for the ride, and why that means so much ❤️🩹
Thank you. Please read: ⬇️
“DIPG is one of the most devastating diagnoses a family can face, and for far too long, progress in treating it has been painfully slow. At UCL and Great Ormond Street, my team and I are working to change that, from understanding how these tumours grow and interact with the brain around them to testing new treatment approaches in some of the first clinical trials of their kind for children in the UK. Ongoing and planned clinical trials for DIPG include CAR-T cell, precision medicine, gene therapy and novel drug delivery therapies.
Philanthropic support like Billy’s Battalion’s is vital at this stage. It gives us the freedom to follow promising new ideas quickly and flexibly, often before they’re ready for larger government or grant funding. That early backing is often what turns a new idea into the evidence needed for the next big step.
I’m hugely grateful to Ellie and everyone who has rallied behind Billy’s Battalion in Billy’s memory. Your support is helping us push forward towards better treatments for children with DIPG and their families.”
— Professor Darren Hargrave, GOSH Children’s Charity Clinical Professor in Paediatric Neuro-oncology, UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health

✍🏼| Taylor recalling a memory that she revisits when the chaos in the life wants to take over:
“One of the memories I revisit a lot on good days and bad because it just makes me feel cozy is that I used to write a lot in two favorite buildings. I had two favorite places that I loved to write the most. The first one being the Sony Fire Hall because you could hear the other writers through the walls and I just kind of liked to pretend that I was in the Brill Building. And then my most favorite was a place called Jody Williams Music, an independent publishing company that was located in a little craftsman house. Let’s say the year is like 2005 in this memory. My mom would pick me up from Hendersonville High School, drive me downtown and drop me off and I’d stamper in the front of Jody Williams Music and I’d say “Hi” to Catherine who worked at the front and sometimes her boyfriend Eric would be there visiting. Things have gone great for them. They’ve got a couple kids, married like 20 years now. His full name is Eric Church, just for clarity.
But then I’d run up the stairs and I would plop down on the couch in front of Liz Rose in this room that was painted red. And I’d be like, “Liz, this happened at school today. I’ve got a hook that I wanna like, you know, you got to write this thing.” And she’d get her notebook and we’d just write so fast. When we finished with the song, I kind of jog out the back of this house to the backyard where there was a garden shed. And in that garden shed was a one person studio where Jody Williams Music’s favorite demo producer, Nathan Chapman, was making demos.
I would run in and Nathan would play every single instrument on these demos and he interpreted my music so intuitively that later on I would fight for him to produce my entire first album. And it was our first album, both of us. And I am shocked and stunned to say that as of a couple days ago, that album is 20 years old. I’ve been very fortunate I’ve gotten to genre hop and travel the world and write with so many different people and in so many different ways. And the only reason that I’ve been able to have that kind of dexterity in my creative process is because of the fundamentals and the foundation that I learned here in Nashville. And I never forget that for a single second when I tell every single person I know about what we have here. And I’m so incredibly honored to be inducted into this sacred club, especially at this point in my life.”

BREAKING: LOL! Trump totally MELTS DOWN after Obama said that he made the White House look like "Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory" in a hilarious jab.
This is the freakout we were waiting for...
"And you have to remember the White House, we have to explain that to Obama, because he doesn't understand it, because he's not a smart guy," a furious Trump told reporters.
"Let me tell you, in my opinion, he's not smart at all, because the way he ran the country, only a stupid person would run the country like that," he continued. "But we have to explain to Obama that the White House is a symbol of America, and it has to be maintained properly."
Of course, if Obama were actually stupid he would have "maintained" the White House by, say, demolishing our nation's beloved East Wing to build a hideous, unnecessary ballroom. Now THAT would have been stupid...
Or maybe he could have started a disastrous war with Iran on Israel's behalf, driven up gas prices, tanked the economy, and engaged in a widespread coverup of Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking network. But no President could possibly be that stupid, right?
"It has to be painted, and the exterior plaster can't be falling off the walls," Trump went on. "And the decorations and ornaments around the windows that are magnificent can't be on one side of the window and falling off on the other side. So we took molds of the one side and we put it on the other side, and we did a beautiful job."
Anyone who has seen pictures of the Oval Office under Trump knows just how perfectly Obama hit the bullseye with his Cheesecake Factory joke. It's atrocious, decked out in cheap fake gold and ugly trim. It's a monument to bad taste and now every foreign leader that visits is immediately reminded that our country is being run by a failed casino operator.
"Very little money spent. It's not about money. It's about seeing," Trump went on. "Guys like Obama don't see it. You don't see dirt. He doesn't see filth. He doesn't see broken ornaments on a building. The White House, to President Obama: Is a symbol of America. It has to be clean."
"The columns can't be broken," Trump huffed on. The bricks can't be falling off from under the plaster. And for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you're a lousy president."
The fact that Trump can get so worked up talking about his taste in aesthetics, but admits that he doesn't care about rising gas prices, just demonstrates what an abject failure he is. Obama baited him, and he took it hook, line, and sinker. Pathetic.
Please ❤️ and share if you think that Obama is a thousand times smarter than Trump!
