(Plus, how dare Elon Musk point out that we fund terrorists!)

By Jenna McCarthy - February 11, 2025

I did something stupid this weekend.

Really stupid.

The worst part is, it wasn’t even a new stupid thing. (And it wasn’t just sitting through nearly four hours of sportsball waiting for some commercials that never aired, either.)

See, my youngest daughter is home on a hiatus between modeling gigs and has spent the time designing and crafting the most gorgeous cowhide purses, wallets, and “pocket shrines” (as you do) that you likely have ever seen. She decided to open a Depop shop and of course, I wanted to help her spread the word.

I mentioned it was stupid, right?

Anyway, I was just going to go to my own dusty profile, drop a quick humble-brag, post a link to Sasha’s store, and bolt. (*I was also going to get in the best shape of my life last year and sand and repaint all of my deck railings this winter, so maybe you shouldn’t always trust my intentions.)

I came really close to executing my plan, I swear I did, but I accidentally took a wrong turn after post and before bolt and wound up in the murky hell that is my Facebook feed.

Obviously, I know that there are people out there who are furious over the Trump administration’s slashing of USAID funding and personnel. They think Elon Musk in particular is . . .
