Voting is like driving; if you want to go backwards choose "R". ...IF you want to move forward choose "D".

American reminder for today:

First World problems of the famous:

As a sixty-plus year old, who has a lifetime Nebula subscription as a result of TLDR and Philosophy Tube (but I used your link to sign up), I find the TLDR coverage gets to many matters much media skips.

Are there two new continents to visit? My understanding is that each of the current ones have been around for at least a few centuries, if not millennia!

Green scrambled eggs, green ham, and a slice of cheesecake. I do like them, Sam I am!

I get cheesecake when it is on sale to include with breakfast - dairy, fruit, carbs from the crust. It’s also something to look forward to when getting out of bed!

Sometimes it is a good choice alongside green eggs and ham.

Similar to rounding up free African Americans during slavery’s time, refusing to accept their freedom solely due to their race.

Regardless of the generation, there are those in the US that have long felt that to be the way things are and have their jollies beating it into others.

Name a song that probably can’t work on a different instrument.

My observation (I woke up with this on my mind, so it may have been a nightmare):

I know that I am far from the only trans woman to buy sexy under things early on in transition. With the just past Amazon Prime Day, I got a couple functional granny bras, a couple plain slips, and granny pants - much more practical. I’m in my 60s, so granny wear is fine.

That or the receipts for paying for two abortions, at least.

Which means that the cat will lead the cult, whether it is you, or the cat you get.

The young whippersnappers may not have heard this. I think it should be playing on loop on loudspeakers aimed at the Capitol, the Oval Office, and the news centres for each network, until they understand it.

I don’t really get the idea of going on PornHub and feeling that you need to search “porn”, let alone “porm”. What are you expecting if you don’t include that, pretty pictures?

Still spells significant number of words incorrectly.

Has the Supreme Court given #IQ45 the ability to start firing judges and justices? Isn’t that roughly equivalent to what they have done regarding any other Congressional authority to direct Presidential authority?

Now if CBS works out a way to keep The Late Show on the air…

Didn’t the Supreme Court give him immunity from dying?

The F-35 has long been a political issue, long before Trump. The military wants them, and we need something, but the populace see that specifically as a boondoggle.

Canadian military buying in peacetime is a regular mess.

In Canada, we stopped buying Florida (or other US) oranges following the 51st state rants. We now get South African ones. I got wondering where they were grown in the country - turns out up by Zimbabwe.

I did see that the Orange Free State is still Orange Free, growing grains instead.

The video wasn’t coming up, but I recognised the Chumbawamba lyrics. Few people that bopped to Tubthumping knew just how intelligent their lyrics actually were.

This is a song that warrants being brought back for extensive radio airplay in today’s climate.

Lasers were once a huge scientific breakthrough, now we use them to play with cats.

Computers were once a huge scientific breakthrough, now we use them to look at pictures of cats.

Conclusion: science was made for cats.

Which means that the entirety of the oblasts of Kursk, Kharkhiv, Belgorad, Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaphorizya, Kherson and Crimea are integral parts of Ukraine and the entirety of the Sakhalin Islands are integral parts of Japan.

There are certainly other places to which Russia has no rights, too.

New bloodwork, E is up 50% to 271 pmol/L, T is down to 0.8 nmol/L, dropped nearly 40%. This is six months after the previous blood work and the prior numbers had been consistent for at least a year and a half.

I do know that I have a return to a libido, now estrogen driven.

Lynda’s gift to her mother Rita - with some well warranted tears.

In our last Pride Parade locally, a group of 30 or so took part protesting everything but homophobia, transphobia, sexism, racism. That they couldn’t at least bundle in those topics was particularly homophobic, transphobic, sexist and racist to me.

Richard Nixon claimed to be a Quaker, so there’s at least one negative.
