Having eaten my share of cold Taco Bell I would like to concur with your observation.

Skull Cliff in Saugus The macabre graffiti spectacle in a quarry in a Massachusetts forest reservation.

If you are a fan of guerrilla art then I would strongly advise a visit to Skull Cliff in Saugus, MA the next time job responsibilities bring you the Boston area.

It's showing its age after 20+ years but still a very impressive work.

I am not certain how many degrees separated from Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) I am but if someone closer the the Representative could deliver a message for me it would be appreciated.

"E pluribus unum you dumb fuck!"

Thanks,

Some of your Republican colleagues seem to think we are not at war with Iran because Congress has not declared war on Iran. Sen. Mullin and Speaker Johnson come immediately to mind.

I find myself concerned that if they ever manage to connect the very obvious dots they will have an aneurism.

Someone find this guy and ask him how many violations of the Constitution it takes before it is no longer the governing document of the United States of America.

Any member of the House who does not call for impeachment is in violation of their oath of office.

Any member of the Senate who does not vote to convict should a motion for impeachment reach that chamber is in violation of their oath of office.

Every member of the House who does not call to impeach him immediately is in violation of their oath of office.

Every Senator who does not vote to convict should an impeachment resolution reach that chamber is in violation of their oath of office.

"Unserious people" is a term Democrats seem to be using to describe Republics for some time now.

It's another Democratic messaging fail.
Call them weirdos like Gov. Walz showed us in 2024.

To separate them from the good kind of weirdo we do need to add an additional descriptor.

Fascist weirdos.

We can't commit to a regular D&D game because most of the working class peoples' effort goes into just getting by.

How do you feel about certain people wanting to hide behind a mask and cover their identity in relation to being a wrestling sensation?

Depending on what you have access to.

I knew enough about Edgar Allen Poe to enjoy The Fall of the House of Usher on Netflix.

If you don't want to brain too much The Floor is a pretty good gameshow.

This is also something I need to do.

I scored an immersion blender at a yard sale last year and have done a bisque as well as some bean dishes (huzzah taquitos) but know I should do hummus as well as try homemade pita bread again.

Isn't that the nature of rogue-lights?

Very repetitive but with power ups?

I played it for one day, the same I got it. But have not thought much of it since.

Which I think I do a lot for that genre.

Oh look an attack on the First Amendment.

If you don't want to accidently end up on the wrong side of the DOJ for burning a flag might I suggest you consider burning some kind of effigy.

The US federal government is not a house of cards.
It is a house of Chesterton's fences.

Donald Trump and his Republican sycophants are the kinds of people a good number of those fences were put up in the first place. That's why they want to tear them down.
