Dear displays supplier,

I have ordered 3 displays for selling my cards at craft fairs/markets. Why do I have 4 boxes with 4 tracking numbers coming my way? This makes NO sense.

Confusedly yours,
Nchanter

(I have emailed them. I will keep the handful of your who read my skeets updated).

The annual pumpkin display at the entrance of Governor Pritzker’s personal residence on Astor Street. He is the pumpkin king. Illinois produces the most pumpkins, including canned, than any other state in the U.S., twice as many as the next five states combined.

These ppl want you to be isolated and depend on them for all your info. Don't talk to anyone else, just listen to what I say and the isolation is fueled by your own thoughts fed into the machine. Sounds similar to abuse tactics.

It's not a matter of autistic people being the only people who need things, while you are a bastion of calm independence. Your needs get met as a matter of course because the system is designed for you. I am asking for a fraction of that energy.

Very reasonable expectation; It’s the capital! It should be setting a good example for the other cities, not be the disappointing outlier.

For those familiar with East Coast US Cities, Vancouver’s train station is more DC’s Union Station than NYC’s Moynihan Train Hall.

Having just taken the train from Seattle to Vancouver last month, I can say the train station isn’t DOWNTOWN downtown, but it is still properly in the city, there are a couple of good food/drink places a block or three over, and it’s properly close to a subway stop.

Is there any green space next to the actual station and can you get delivery? Lolsob?

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Picture of a shiny black Cybertruck on the highway taken through the front windshield of a car behind and one lane to the left of it. There is a logo of a horse head on the back of the vehicle.  Below the logo it reads β€œCalvary Flooring” in all caps, with website and phone number.

This is why I am considering going back to being an unenrolled (independent) voter: because most of the Dems elected to federal office are complicit.

A lot of people who posted β€œrespect my trans homies or I'm gonna identify as a fucking problem” are pretty silent these days.

That is such a hopeful - but incorrect - view. I've moderated polyamory groups on Facebook (yea, I know); trust me, they aren't all centrists, liberals, and leftists.

Assuming anyone who identifies as - or is - polyamorous is NOT a bigot or right wing is dangerous, especially for non-men and POC.

It’s telling that it’s mainly cis, straight, able-bodied people crying, β€œHow dare someone lose their life over politics!” That reaction shows they’ve never had skin in the game. For them, politics is abstract. For the rest of us, politics is survivalβ€”how we navigate the world just to stay alive.

to state the obvious, immediately leaking personal details to the press about somebody cooperating with a murder investigation is a great way to encourage people to not cooperate with future investigations

Newsom is also a fascist; he says fascist things and has fascist policies. He’s just a more palatable version who isn’t anti-vax. Diet fascist, if you will.

I am not dissing Buffalo Wild Wings. They are a perfectly acceptable national food chain, and if this vid had been made 30 years ago the place would have been Hooters.

This is so spot on. Friends ARE the goal.

As is, apparently, outings to Buffalo Wild Wings.

This is an incredibly important fact about current reality that's missing from how we speak to friends/family. Consider that we truly are living in different realities. This book has been incredibly helpful for me in reframing how I speak to people about, well, anything these days: amzn.to/42lIMDe

Dear Facebook: I am trying to give you money (I know I know, but marketplace is the best for the thing I am doing and I have a small budget), please let me!

I did one boost earlier this week and I want to do another boost today! But the β€œboost again” button just shows me the last boosts metrics. 😑

This administration doesn't work for the American people. It's a Russia engineered and billionaire funded takedown of the US. They want to remake this country as a dictatorship with all the wage slaves an oligarch could hope for.

I haven't been wrong about Trump since 2015. Still ringing the alarm.

The richest 100 billionaires in the U.S. have a net worth totaling $3.86 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is collectively worth $4 trillion.

Read that back.

Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.
