And I'm eating it outside because who knows how many more chances I'll get before crappy weather sets in?

Omg, just finished a big work thing that's been hanging over me and making life sad for a while. Still a lot of other things to do, but nonetheless I'm taking myself out for a late lunch that I don't eat over my keyboard.

Oh, I'm so sorry about Tchz! ☹️

You will never convince me that every single one of these things were not bought by hysterically laughing drunk people

When Nazis want selfies with you, it's time to rethink your life

I'd say it's also not beginning well

All of the talk of "doxing ICE agents" should be a non-premise because law enforcement agents working for the government shouldn't have anonymity to begin with. "Steve Johnson from Duluth is a cop" should be a matter of public record. You're a government employee not fucking Banksy

It's exactly the opposite, I'd say

Well, I knew this was coming. Also, a while back Trump took over the renovations to Penn station from New York State and I'm quite sure that will be terminated if it has not been terminated already.

After all, we need money to give to Argentina and to fund stormtroopers in perfectly safe cities

Insurance rates up $2000.

Food benefits cut off.

Farmers unable to sell their crops.

Skyrocketing national debt.

$40 billion to Argentina.

America First!

I've definitely noticed this too. And some of them are people I interact with regularly.

Pick-up trucks and public executions as Hamas emerges from Gaza’s ruins Show of strength attempts to send message to both Palestinians and truce mediators that group remains in control

"After two years of war with Israel, and barely four days into a US-brokered ceasefire, Hamas is seeking to broadcast a message across Gaza: Israel is retreating, and the enclave is back in the Palestinian militant group’s hands."

“On the ground, from A to Z, there is no doubt: Hamas is in charge."

So, let me get the MAGA logic straight. Blue cities are so dangerous,Trump needs to send stormtroopers to occupy them against our vehement protests. But anti-terror funds need to go to "safe" red districts.

Trump and Vought are now breaking both sides of spending law. They’re illegally not spending where the law requires them to spend, and they’re illegally spending where they don’t have the money to spend.

What we have is an appropriations king.

Spending “deals” are meaningless under that setup.

Isn't it cute??

I love the way he's perching on the magnifying glass as though he's just daring you to do something about it.

I went down an internet hole tonight and accidentally stumbled on them! They have lots of fun looking stuff

They have a bunch of different ones including fancy ones if you don't care for the cat one or the dog one

Need to think a little bit because if I'm going to get one I would want it specifically to wear to a fancy restaurant for those pesky wine lists so maybe the cat won't work

Right? Plus it's fun, and you don't have to drag out reading glasses.

This is not going to end well.

Yes, I suppose it's that fancy restaurants often have very extensive wine lists and hence the tiny print, and also our dimly and romantically lit. But the combination does make it difficult to read the wine menu, especially if you're not 20 anymore.

Magnifying glass pendant with dog bone theme

Alternatively, there's this dog version which might appeal more to the Corgi crew. I rather liked that you have to peer rather closely at it to see the dog bone theme.

They also have magnifying glass pendants that do not have cats on them.

Cat aside, it could come in handy for reading wine lists with teeny tiny print in dark restaurants.

(Why do they do that anyway? The darker the restaurant, the tinier the print on the wine menu seems to be.)

Magnifying glass pendant with a cat on it that I totally don't need but am kind of considering anyway

I am wondering if I need a magnifying glass pendant with a cat on it

I've already ordered the thing I'm going to do- the attached post-- but I actually didn't want to make it about me. I'm not an only child, and this will someday get passed down to my brother's daughter. I wanted it to be about my parents but in a style I would actually wear

Yes, the gold thread would act as an axis.

Yes, somehow that worked for me symbolically having them together, but rotating within and around each other.

Also, as a piece of jewelry, I think it will be simple but interesting & modern, and hence something I'll actually wear.

I'll post a pic and perhaps a video when I get it back!

I spoke with a jewelry designer near me. He made a suggestion I liked: to make a pendant with Mom's ring in the middle, as shown below, but instead of having them welded together, to put them both on a gold thread so they each can be rotated. I should have it in a week or so.
