Rice Krispies Treats, but instead of Rice Krispies, use Nerds. What do you think? Would you eat it?

Is Hegseth just playing Mad Libs with our defense policy?

Let's give (country) the first (noun) on US soil, and we'll put it in (state), because they (verb ending in ed) the (government official) with a (noun).

The manatees at Family Guy couldn't have done better.

The image shows two X posts. The first, by Juliette Kayyem (@juliettekayyem
) from 1 hour ago, states: "'Take care of' is not subtle. This weekend the ground has shifted and no person can deny what the president, unpopular and unfit, intends. To remain silent is to welcome this. They can both sides or claim they didn't hear, but there is no wiggle room about his plans now." The second, by Aaron Rupar (@atrupar
) from 6 hours ago, quotes Trump addressing the Navy: "We have to take care of this little gnat that's on our shoulder called the Democrats." The post includes a photo of Trump speaking to a group in Navy uniforms, with a caption noting he "called the Democrats. They want to give all of our money to illegal."

No President should ever stoke this kind of division and dehumanize the other half of the country in this way.

One of my favorite things about going to conventions is meeting new cool people and hanging out with them. Just making friends with your fellow nerds! especially at the science-minded geek mixers that my co-host melissa has been organizing. old friends & new friends together!

a cartoon character from the little mermaid is pointing at the camera and asking me ? Alt: Prince Eric from The Little Mermaid strokes his chin and asks, "Me?"

Ever wonder how Ariel got that big statue of Prince Eric into her secret grotto in The Little Mermaid? That thing has got to be heavy!

i think there were maybe 1 or 2 random months the comic store forgot to put stuff in my pull box, and so i've got a gap in quite a few mini-series, like TIE Fighter.

After stopping buying comics at end of 2020 since i wasn't really reading them, i've finally put the Marvel & IDW SW comics from 2016 - 2020 into short boxes so they aren't stacked up in bags on the floor next to my desk. did inventory. Should i bother finding the 5-6 random issues im missing?

List 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours without prep:

1. Star Wars (probably can do lots of sub-topics too)
2. election day procedures at polling places
3. traveling abroad (stories and tips)

Even if only 1% of people fall for it, they're getting their message in front of eyeballs. but what do they want? I'll never know. probably phishing...

That they did. Protected my eyes from the UK to Japan. Reality is so harsh without them.

I think my sunglasses got raptured. i had them riding to school drop-off but they didn't make it home. i immediately re-rode the route, and no sign of them. they were truly worthy. lovely pair of MIB Raybans.
