I made apple pie for @stephtyll.bsky.social, and she’s canning up some apple pie filling from our bounty at the PYO orchard on Saturday. Jonagolds and Golden Delicious, with secret ingredient boiled cider.

This should be above the fold on every newspaper. Lead story for days on every broadcast and cable news program.

That it's not is a measure of how badly we need to break the current media ecosystem.

Break the NYT's hold on elite opinion shaping. Turn the Ellisons' equity in CBS into green stamps.

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

I managed to work in a comment about my wife being disabled from long Covid and she sounded shocked, but I don’t think she got it.

Then again I have also tried to explain bisexuality to this same nurse after an incorrect assumption she made about my wife, and I don’t think she got that either πŸ™„

Absolutely none of the staff were masked. I was in the hospital briefly last month and one (1) doctor asked if I wanted him to mask and I was like πŸ₯Ί (and he then put a sign on my door telling everyone else to mask before entering πŸ₯Ή)

we aren’t going to be able to make up for what they’re stealing from people who need it. but setting up a recurring donationβ€”whatever you can affordβ€”to your local food bank is one of the easiest & most effective ways to help people in your community. find one near you:

This is *stunningly* disingenuous, and the fact that Singal continues to enjoy a career writing at the highest levels about a topic that he either unwilling or incapable of discussing honestly is such an indictment of the Anglo-American prestige media.

I cannot emphasize this enough:

The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent.

They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so.

Doomers are not realists.

this is a multigenerational complaint but WHOSE idea was it to make car headlights out of high-Kelvin LEDs?? Didn't anyone realize that blue-tinted light fucks up your night vision? There should be illegal bulb temperatures for vehicle headlights. Hmmph!

That silly little picture you generated is cranking up energy costs, hurting artists, and adding absolutely nothing to the world.

A hand-drawn card depicting an orange-and-cream tabby cat lying on a bed and holding a phone. His ears are swiveled back, his eyes are narrowed, and his expression is pained and annoyed. A speech bubble behind him shows that he is posting on a Reddit-like site (apparently for cats) under the subreddit β€œIsSisterTheAnnoyingOne” a parody of the subreddit β€œAmITheAsshole” with 3.2 million β€œaggrieved siblings.” 

His post is partially obscured by his head; missing text appears in brackets. 

β€œMoms do not understand how annoying she is. She is always getting in Merry’s space and trying to touch Merry with her paws and putting her face in Merry’s [fac]e and following Merry around everywhere like onto the bed and Moms think she is sooooo cute and then they’ll pet her duri[ng] morning Merry time [whe]n pets are for Merry and she is alwa[ys trying] to play with Me[rry] when Merry is trying to nap and [Merry noticed she will play] with Merry’s toys and sometimes ON P[URPOSE just to be rude] to Merry and then she meows and [she’ll purr and it is so] LOUD and she is always asking [Merry to groom her] and Merry will groom her because Me [rry is the good one and she] is anooooying!” 

In an inset in the lower right corner is a drawing of Merry’s sister, a brown ticked tabby. She has cartoon hearts over her eyes and little cartoon hearts around her head. In a speech bubble, she says, β€œHe is sooooo cool!”

Not my most technically proficient work, but in this card for my brother I feel I really captured the way Merry looks at his sister when she is being anNoYiNg 😾😾😾

I just hate the way our society views the homeless. I’ve been homeless before and that shit ain’t easy to get out of. Ppl aren’t on the street bc they want to be. They’re not less human than you. And you could easily find yourself out there in today’s world. Have some compassion.
