A handmade pottery mug made from white speckled clay that reads FUCK AROUND AND FIND OUT. The mug is glazed blood red on the handle, rim, and interior and there are red drips down the sides.

β€œAre swear words okay?” is the most common question I get about custom message mugs. No need to explain. You can absolutely send your Nana a mug with the c-word on it.

My rules are simple: no slurs, no threats, and nothing that will get the secret service called on me. Otherwise go wild! 🩸 #pottery

Aside from the despicable discounting of human experience and work, all of this is just mind-blowingly incompetent BUSINESS.

What's the AP gonna do when the "A.i." companies jack up prices 10 fold? What happens to the business model then?

Suckers and clowns.

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.

The four law firms that last year chose to fight President Trump’s illegal intimidation campaign have won vindication. Federal judges had already struck down Mr. Trump’s executive orders trying to punish the firms for representing or employing people he considered to be his political enemies. On Monday, the Trump administration abandoned its appeals of those rulings, accepting defeat.

The victories of the four firms β€” Jenner & Block, Susman Godfrey, Perkins Coie and WilmerHale β€” are a triumph for justice and democracy. The executive orders that Mr. Trump signed early in his second term were based on the lie that the firms had done something wrong. In fact, their lawyers were merely doing their jobs. They happened to represent Democrats and liberal groups or participated in prior investigations of him. And his would-be punishments of the firms had the potential to damage them badly. The executive orders barred the firms’ lawyers from entering federal buildings and meeting with federal officials, activities that are a necessary part of many legal cases.

Yep, Trump's attack on law firms was invalid. No surprise. Do those who caved feel foolish?

Copperdog 30! After being sick and missing the Wolftrack last weekend, I was determined to savor this last race (and likely last sled run) of the season. The team was Zirkle and Compass in lead, Foucher and Ordona swing, Croissant and Watkins wheel.

Hi, #UglyDogs!

As some of you know, Kristie Lent was planning on coming back up to Anchorage for the start of Iditarod.

Unfortunately, she's in the hospital with sepsis and had to cancel her trip.

I'm sure she would appreciate any good wishes, thoughts, prayers, and general vibes you send her! πŸ’™

Stand With Minnesota Stand With Minnesota is a hub for supporting, learning, and taking action to support Minnesotans impacted by ICE and federal enforcement.

It’s day 90 of the ICE occupation of MSP.

ICE is still here, terrorizing communities.

Today at the Whipple building, HCSO deputies violently assaulted and arrested protesters.

Meanwhile, Minnesotans are raising money and paying rent for thousands of our neighbors.

I just saw Martha finish the CD 30 on the Copper Dog youtube page. I think she was 4th to the finish, but with start differentials I'm not sure where that puts her. Can't find a scoring page anywhere. But, no matter what, great job Martha!! @otterrunkennel.bsky.social #mushersky.

trump likes wars. he likes killing people. he likes feeling like he's hurting others.

we all know this. there is no reason to believe this is a distraction, rather than something he just really likes and feels good about.
