I hope whoever orchestrated the massive display of fireworks at the nearby golf club in Phoenix gets their fingers blown off or burns the club down.

Fireworks in a valley city with 2 million people including many veterans and dog owners is bad enough on an actual holiday when people plan for it.

The next budget should have an automatic 50% cut to all military spending. Imagine if they had to pick and choose their battles.

Life imitates art.

29 years ago, Wag the Dog told the story of a US president mired in sex scandal that threatened to undermine his presidency so he decided he needed to concoct a make-believe war to boost his support.

This dipshit does not understand leadership, let alone opposition party. @gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social get him gone.

“Out of Range” not “Out of Habit,” and it has a couple of my absolute favorites. 🤦🏼‍♂️ Awkward.

Ani DiFranco’s “Not a Pretty Girl” delivers every time. A song from that album pops up on shuffle and I’m instantly in a new world.

Also a fan of “Out of Habit.” And “Dilate.” And “Puddle Dive.” And”Little Plastic Castles.” And “Living in Clip.” And “Reckoning/Reveling.” And and and.

Nice! Are your legs jello?

It was such a trip to see a full range of potential scores that didn’t beat time cap! It seems like the 90th percentile is always like 50% of the time cap.

Feel good about my Open 26.1 performance. I’m not a competitor anymore, so I don’t go so hard it feels like my soul leaves my body by the end these days.

But I got 237. (9/40 📉)

My HR spiked at 186, which is high at my age, but I never felt gassed. It was just a matter of quivering quads.

This seems pretty easy if you’re moderately fit. But I’m a vegetarian, so I’m not worried about the 24 tacos staying trapped in my gut.

Reading the comments on this is so funny because who even is this Rachael person?

News culture feels so fragmented under the age of 50 that it feels like what was once mainstream is just another rando shouting in the void.

I literally thought the same thing. Like who is this apparent mouthpiece of the MSM?

This season of #TraitorsUS has been … a lot to watch. Like vacillating between love-watching and hate-watching. They should win an Emmy for editing.

It’s wild that I excitedly watch a bunch of people I don’t care about play Mafia, a game I played offstage of every rehearsal of anything since 1998.

Resilience, ridicule guarantee hate group’s flop at D.C. anti-abortion march When 120 white nationalist Patriot Front members descended on Washington, D.C., they were met by counterdemonstrators and clown music.

NEW, from me: I talked to people who shut down Patriot Front's rally in D.C. last month.

Counter-demonstrators made it impossible for PF to produce propaganda and recruit at the March for Life rally. The clown music set the tone.

This is such a good take. Mine would be “good but not great” and this explains why. Worth watching for sure.

I have spoken to two people now who have told me that only part of their FBI interviews are in the released files, and the parts of their interviews that are missing include mentions of Trump. 1/

Henceforth, I will be describing the way that U.S. men’s hockey spectacularly squandered good will, brand recognition, and fan loyalty as “pulled a Target.”

They pulled a Target.

I heard a woman with a German accent and immediately thought, I need to rewatch *Lola rennt.* Stat.

#filmsky I guess?

This guy gets it.

Right, they are *now*, but they folded on the last shutdown and have for years let ICE and CBP grow to become the inevitable monster it is. They don’t get to ignore the past, and they should be primaried.

And if you get snowed in, you have a perfect group of people with shared interests to enjoy the time together. You can even play the long ass games

And Smith put the driver in a block of concrete 😂 so unflowing. I love how much yours moves!

I’m so excited to travel during another Mercury Retrograde while the TSA is not getting paid. Very smart timing.

And it’s all because Republicans and enough center-right Dems love secret police.

Did it again. (Saturn Days are my preferred day of hard effort commitments.)

Did the first mile slower (6.5ish mph) but miles 2–4 were 7.2, 7.5, and 7.2 respectively.

Tired but not dead

I love that

As a kid, I saw a show called Shear Madness (a hair salon nursery mystery) way back in 1990 or so, and the audience picked at the end who they thought was the killer based on the clues in the show, and then the cast acted out the reveal to prove them right.

Yours sounds similarly fun!

It was very fun. There was one at a local high school that was advertised last year, and it got my partner and me excited to go before we realized it was a high school play, so when the real version came around, it was a sign that we had to see it.

Why were you?? Was it based on the movie? This said it was a new play but maybe it was just a new touring.

Saw the play version of #clue tonight at the ASU Gammage, which I kept pronouncing as Gommage because of Expedition 33.

Very fun and funny. So much from the movie obviously but great to see how it gets theater-ized and plenty of new jokes too.

The physical comedy was gold.

I woke up like this

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.

If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?
