Why I record my kids when they agree to something (then delete the recording after it is fulfilled). They always 'forget' what they agreed to do.

Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this.

Smashed records.

Important, overlooked moment: Trump's nominee for Agriculture Secretary was questioned by Dems about mass deportations. She promised steps would be taken to avoid driving farms out of business. She admitted deportations threaten economic disruptions!

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

If you say we abandon red states, you kill a lot of dear friends of mine so fuck right off with that. We don't leave gerrymandered, vulnerable, decent people behind because of a zip code, you sanctimonious dicks.

So what I have already lived with for almost 44 years... cool cool cool 😭

A photo of big tech ceos at the inauguration. Then a tweet from Tim Miller @Timodc that says: Row 1 of the inauguration: The richest men in America who own all of the communications platforms. Row 2: The cabinet.

this is what is happening

all I ask is that when you mention the oligarchs, please also mention that they own the communications platforms

If I see a single one of you MF’s chewing out another leftist for a minor infraction or imperfection in an era where the richest man alive is doing Nazi salutes on live television, I swear to god I’m going to personally grab you by the hair and force you to touch grass.

In 2016, I did. This time, I knew before going to bed 😭

Here's the first of probably periodic warnings to remind yourself that the "firehose of falsehoods" disinformation tactic is about to go into full swing. You do not need to watch the news to bear witness. You do not need to watch hideous videos of violence. They will be circulated to keep you upset

Best New Year present. Wonderella is back!

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square.
45² = 45 x 45 = 2025
Also,
9² x 5² = 2025
40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
My favourite?
1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025

I am for legalization of weed, but some of the tax money being collected needs to used for education campaigns about secondhand smoke and driving under the influence. 4/4

There has been education about why not to smoke tobacco around children and why not to drive under the influence of alcohol. However, people are being reckless about where and when they smoke weed. /3

I have also been able to smell weed from other cars on the highway while my windows are closed at 10 am in the morning.

People don't think about weed as a controlled substance. /2

Thoughts while watching @hankgreen.bsky.social YT on weed vs gambling:
I'm a teacher at a k-2 school. Many students, 5 - 8 yo olds, come in reeking of weed. I have friends who smoke weed inside around their kids. These children are inhaling secondhand smoke and possible effects from the THC. /1

Which streaming service is it on?

if this post gets one thousand likes I will attempt to write a Christmas movie*

*at some point

So close to 1k... I have no followers, but I'll repost in hopes of boosting!

So a reminder:

It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.

It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.

It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.

For the record.

The joy of a new social media platform is trying to find the people I followed on the old ones, especially the bird that shall not be named. I haven't been on it for a while and miss the witty people I followed.
