“what radicalized you” idk paying attention
29.10.2025 17:03 — 👍 12472 🔁 4067 💬 102 📌 119Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing? 2? Questions I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up. Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?
If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.
I'm talking about something very different.
Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.
Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.
But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿♂️

Abbott Administration (2019-2025): • Bill to abolish Texas Parks and Wildlife Department: Legislative effort threatened expertise and continuity in park and river safety management. • Underfunding of state flood plan (vs. $50B need): State funding fell far short of identified flood mitigation needs, leaving critical projects unfunded. • Reliance on one-time/voter-approved flood funds: Inconsistent, short-term funding undermined long-term flood prevention. • Parks fundina uncertaintv and resource strain:

We've had a 50 and 100 year flood in 98 and 2000. And now 2025. All 3 years have been after a huge drought. These are directly caused by human made climate change and yet the government fails to provide the extra monitoring or incoming

Texture around each female face includes corn kernels at the top, bean sprouts and leaves in the middle, and a squash at the bottom. All three indigenous faces appear serious and serene.
