Yes. None of them can come to Bensalem or even any part of Bucks County, PA.

We have a delicate balance of mostly GOP but somehow when shit gets real, we turn out.

<GOP>Oh, every GOP person in my orbit lost their election?

Let's invade Nigeria. </GOP?>

They are so weak, so small, so weird. Invading tiny countries to make yourself feel manly?

Does not make you manly.

Thank you. This is just me wondering what my daughter might be thinking but also knowing that she knows what she wants to study.

Like, I literally got to see Mercury with my naked eye because of my daughter. So faint, and so OMG MERCURY!

I'd say a little more than a "lil cute", but yeah. You look very cute here. Approaching adorable.

#IndependenceDay on Paramount Network on my cable right now.

Fairly certain Randy Quaid was not acting in this movie. He was probed, and he'd be happy to deliver the last missile while dying in the attempt.

A question for @astrokatie.com

What is the difference between AstroPhysics and Astronomy? If any?

I have a daughter in local community college heading for Temple U and she already knows a lot about where everything is in the night sky.

When I see @kevinmkruse.bsky.social and @jamellebouie.net agree about how the individual races were run correctly for the electorate, maybe we have something?

I actually thought the IOC was the most corrupt and here we have FIFA vying for the title having been number two for so many years.

I mean to say there is a lot of corruption in International Sports.

Like, what they do is what Trump wants to do, meaning he isn't there yet. Let that sink in.

Mayor Mamdani redefines what it means to hope His victory has created a harsh contrast between the world we want and the world we have.

"Hope is not blind optimism or uncritical belief in a political savior. Hope, to me, means the ability to imagine a better world is possible and then work to build it brick by brick. It is, as @prisonculture.bsky.social says, not an emotion but a disciplineβ€”one we must practice every single day."

So the GOP support of the US armed forces only goes so far?

Not the British, Lord Cutler Beckett. From cues, the British didn't care how they got the money from the Caribbean, they just wanted the money from the Caribbean.

Sorry. I've spent a lot of time thinking about the ways those movies play out if they were real.

Still stuck with our GOP mayor of 40 years in Bensalem, but we got the Council and the school board.

And the county got rid of ICE loving Harran.

When is Schumer up? Those people are going to go strong for any one who primaries him.

This is the lesson that should be taken from this voting cycle, especially with Mamdani.

Not whatever the centrists try to make the talking points tomorrow.

Here’s Who Billionaires Are Donating To In Tuesday’s Elections At least 26 billionaires donated to groups opposing Zohran Mamdani, the democratic socialist who is the Democratic New York City mayoral candidate.

They have bought news outlets and social media sites. They have paid for a lot of advertising.

And yet, we still all know there shouldn't be billionaires at all, and that most of the ones we are stuck with just suck at almost everything that makes us human.

On Xitter I once made a joke about the pop of Montana and was chided by an Indigenous person from there I immediately followed, because tho I was thinking EC, I wanted to know more.

I looked this up because I know Angus and I wasn't sure if he was making a humorous post, and reader he is not.

I read this earlier today and saw some things I have watched already and a couple things that I will probably watch going forward.

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

This. Fetterman, who turned into an absolute ass as one of my Senators. The only good thing about this shutdown is he couldn't vote with the GOP more.

I know there are more savory desserts, but salmon as a dessert?

I'd try it, but I'm not going to make it myself because I like salmon as Not dessert too much.
