People on Bluesky to ask for money, I also would like money. Musicians are quite known for not having money. Composition of music is a particularly unrewarding task, financially speaking. Asking me for money is a fairly pointless exercise. Slava Ukraini!

That sounds like nothing can be done, then, with the current situation.

And here they are again. Presumably Poppet doesnโ€™t mind the smell of feet!

On the right, closer to camera, a probably part (if not full) Russian Blue ex stray rescue cat stares straight at the camera. This is Jacko (Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jumping Jack Flash, Jack in the box, Hungry Jack). 

On the left, looking at Jackoโ€™s ear is Poppet, an ex breeding queen Burmese Blue. Poppet is exactly as youโ€™d expect if you know your British confectionery: sheโ€™s a little sweetie!

Day jobs are such a bother.

Tangerine Palpatine is good! Iโ€™ve been saying Tangerine Troglodyte, but maybe Iโ€™ll update.

Itโ€™s Kegseth. Theyโ€™re all unqualified, but only he is almost certainly drunk too.

Go ahead and block me, oh Exulted Big Brain Who Can Look At A Dictionary Post Showing That Liberal Means Progressive But Canโ€™t Draw Any Obvious Conclusions From That.

So now we find people saying things like โ€œthe libs donโ€™t talk about Greta Thunberg anymoreโ€, and I donโ€™t know who it is that apparently isnโ€™t talking about her these days. Not knowing who this person is talking about, I canโ€™t figure out what theyโ€™re trying to say!

And then of course, thereโ€™s Libertarians, who are more or less hard right types with just enough intelligence to realise that they shouldnโ€™t say so in public.

Public notice:

Nobody knows what the term โ€œliberals/libsโ€ means anymore

liberal traditionally means left.
Liberal democracy is a different things.
Britain has a political party called the Liberal Democrats (lib dems) who are broadly centrists
Australiaโ€™s main right wing party is the Liberal Party

Thatโ€™s very close to me, Iโ€™ve just driven past it on my way back from the shops.

and even stranger, thatโ€™s the same Quayle who Pence turned to when seeking advice, so conceivably, Quayle saved the US from a coup on the 6th of January a few years ago.

Itโ€™s so difficult to differentiate, at such a concentrated level of malevolence!

I remember when George W was out of commission for a while (sick? Operation?) and everyone was horrified by the prospect of President Quayle.

Actually, best one of those was the person who contacted me with an opening line along the lines of, โ€œHi there patriotโ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚

I gently explained that I was not in fact from the US

Wait. A person of apparent voting age is criticising **Labor** for having fewer voting days?!?

I havenโ€™t seen much of that. My pinned post mentions that Iโ€™m Australian and taken so i guess most people read that. Every now and then someone contacts me with a possibly innocent DM, and they always get deleted or leave before too long!

I do block obvious thirst traps though, I donโ€™t need that!

Freedom? It would end academic standards! Itโ€™s not โ€œacademic freedomโ€ to say that climate change is real, for example

Iโ€™ll just believe you. Ich kan nicht Deutsche sprecken (or however thatโ€™s meant to be spelt/spelled).

Itโ€™s just that the wordโ€™s current meaning has evolved past its literal meaning. Iโ€™m sure that Hitler would have hated Muslims as much as he hated Jews, he just didnโ€™t meet many.

A business relies on money coming in from outside, a government relies on money being exchanged within its borders.

I also wish I knew why these words were difficult to say in front of a microphone

Iโ€™m not so sure. Too quick, I think.

Also, after Trumpโ€™s time is over, thereโ€™s going to be very large deficits to recover from. Iโ€™m wondering if thereโ€™s money to be made from charging regular people for the privilege of throwing rotten fruit at people like Noem, Miller, Trump etc

If ICE agents refuse to identify themselves and keep their masks on at all times, then if one ICE agent drives straight at people exercising their first amendment rights, then all ICE agents need to be locked up for attempted murder.
