Let’s get something clear. The GOP has the power to keep the government from shutting down in March. They control both chambers of Congress and the White House. If they can’t reach a budget deal within their own ranks, that completely on them.

Dems: Don’t lift a finger to help them. Not one.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Saved a lot of cash. This is gonna roll all day for free.

Enough. The Democrats must shut down the Senate and use their power. Stop voting for these idiots. Stop all unanimous consent. Demand answers. Filibuster. Where is the fucking outrage?

The Anti-President I don’t want to be an alarmist—I try to avoid that—but as I’m writing this, it looks like we are in the middle of a five-alarm fire.

Trump just launched a trade war against Canada over fentanyl. The US seized - wait for it - 43 pounds at the US-Canada border last year.

43 pounds.

Republican trade policy:

When a Republican president and his Republican administration are doing horrendous illegal shit and the Republicans who control Congress are not even interested in policing it, it seems to me people should mostly be mad at Republicans.

Also, it was a fuckin Nazi salute come the fuck on

Unhoused man sleeping on subway. Taking up what might otherwise be 4 sears In the middle of rush hour.

NYK’er stops, picks up their fallen hat, places it on their sleeping body, keeps going.

It’s that simple. Showing empathy & minding your own damn business are not mutually exclusive.

what sucks most about this "democrats who wanna be open to vaccine skeptics" thing is it's such transparent "we need more votes. what if we open up the tent to these morons who don't know their right hand from their left." bitch those people will still not vote for you. write them off

It's telling that, from the 2024 version of these people, you never hear, "We did a bad job of messaging about trans rights and immigration and we have to fix that." It's always "We did a bad job of listening to bigoted voters and now we have to meet them where they are."

Thinking of writing my own accounting software. This is a bad sign.

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh- Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles. But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet. This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.

Wisdom from @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com through the filter of Vimes:

Republicans are not simply “delusional,” they haven’t temporarily “lost their mind.” Such pathologizing language obscures the fact that Republicans are engaged in a deliberate, systematic, and highly successful project to entrench minority rule.

Great blue sky today!

Happy Saturday Blue Sky!

4/ Then I woke up from the alarm clock, time to go to work. I've been wondering all day what was the true meaning of this dream.

3/ But just as we moved from a group of cargo cars to the passenger cars a bomb went off on the car behind us. We were like wtf, but headed on to the engine to find it what's going on. To our surprise when we got there we found... Stormtroopers.

2/ But then I realized we were out of time, so I told him we needed to run to catch the train. We super mario jumped up the hill to the station. But the train was already leaving! The passenger cars went by, but fortunately a cargo car was open and we hopped in.

1/ hi folks I need help analyzing my dream. I dreamed that me and the family were visiting some city. We split up but agreed to meet at the train station on our way home. My younger son wanted to swim a bit so me and him went near the train station.

Kids these days don't understand how good we had it back then: https://toytales.ca/magic-sand-from-wham-o-1981/
