that spooky ghoulhack guy from that dead bird site

I’m not sayin I’m old, or small town, but today was the birthday of the wife of one of my high school teachers and I didn’t post “Happy Birthday” on her Facebook because I couldn’t remember if either her or her teacher husband were still alive.

Somebody send this person gift tickets to a production of “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead”

Their conversations with the Trump Administration seem to have been quite explicit on the plan. Pass a federal voter ID law that vote by mail states like OR and WA can't possibly comply with before 2026. Then have the GOP controlled Senate and House simply refuse to seat the people who won.

Ep. 18: September to Remember October 6 • S1 E18 • 44 min Also, we proposed a idea how to do a end run on vote by mail. Concept is based on what Trump proposed. When you vote, you check everyone's citizenship as well as voter ID. In a vote by mail state, you might be able to check citizenship during voter registration. You can send copies of your passport and your birth certificate in. How in the world are you going to check our voters? Voter ID, right? Vote by mail. So that creates a problem for Oregon. But if federal government new requirement is to check both, and if Oregon can comply with the requirements, what would happen to our election result? I'm talking about the entire federal delegation. For federal elections, we're talking about only federal elections. COMMON SENSE Vascluar

Ep. 18: September to Remember October 6 • S1 E18 • 44 min So entire federal delegation, congressmen and senators could be challenged, could be unseated because you didn't follow federal requirements to elect them. So I said the trade-off is worth it. You know why? Democrats control two Senate seats out of six congressional seats. We only control one. They control five. You talk about trade-off, right? COMMON SENSE Sanctuany

Two big GOP activists from Oregon were in DC last month for meetings with Trump admin officials. On their podcast they talk about a plan they discussed to nullify the results of Oregon's 2026 federal elections. Pass federal voter ID law, then refuse to seat OR delegation because OR didn't comply.

Weird weird day.

Another beautiful day in #Portland 🌞

I've been doing most of the cooking for the family for ...probably 15-ish years, at this point? — and it's just in the last couple years that I've gotten to where I'm comfortable mostly ad-libbing a meal, no recipes, just some vibes. Tonight was like that, and it was fantastic.

dinner tonight was some steaks and some taters, roasted up on the grill.

Hey, #lazyWeb, what's your favorite #Python or #Javascript library for programmatically setting ID3 tags? (Ya know, like in MP3 files.)

Not interested in GUI tools, just libraries, please and thanks!

Are any Democrats talking about how, with the government shutdown and whatnot, Stephen Miller and Trump threatening to send National Guard into American cities means pulling people away from their jobs to terrorize their neighbors…for free?

Stephen Miller was in my college cohort and I regret not bullying him to my full potential.

This dude threw a 2 year tantrum over being asked to sign a thank you card for the dorm housekeeping staff.

President Trump said he spoke to the President of Puerto Rico and I think that means he talks to himself and you can invoke the 25th amendment now.

“I'd like to point out that the same is true for mammalian digestion, for the most part. While we do absorb some things that have to be processed by the lymphatic system and liver, our gastrointestinal tract is for all intents and purposes, a hole through the middle of our bodies (like a donut). So, most of the stuff we don't digest: fibre, some fats, etc. is also staying outside of our bodies, we just push it through the donut hole : P “

So I was looking up how digestion works in carnivorous plants, and that led me to this absolutely cursed reddit post
