This is such a bullshit argument. The difference is Kamala Harris has some level of moral compass, which means she could have been moved to positive action. Instead we have a sociopathic narcissistic moron and all his soulless grifter sycophants in office. You think that's better for Gaza?

I wish we had mandatory education sentences in this country. Destroy a weather radar system? Incarcerated until you can pass an 8th grade science exam. Damage to government facilities? Civics. Threaten a medical provider? Good luck getting through med school!

Like this isn't the most dystopian idea ever: Ping! This is United Healthcare. Our records indicate that you had a chili dog for supper. We are increasing your monthly insurance payment by $54/month to reflect the increase in risk factors for cardiac infarction. Have a nice day!

I will have to find that! I finally took the leap recently of showing Star Wars to my 7yo twins, and while I will forever die on the hill of the originals being the best and ONLY version worth watching... I did kind of cry a little at how fuzzy and dull the films are on a modern screen.

No expert here but I would love to hear you call him out on hypocrisy: Does he support personal choice re: vaccines? Or does he support federal authority to control vaccines? Is limiting access to Covid boosters supportive of choice? Or are we only free to make choices that he agrees with?

Such a sad reason, but omigosh is this a beautiful quilt! If this were an Etsy listing, my mortgage payment might be a bit late this month...

I feel so validated right now. There are (unread) books in my house that have been travel companions of mine for years.

Forget flying cars, the worst crime committed by The Jetsons was to make me believe we'd be much closer to bathroom-scrubbing and dish-doing robots by now.

Shades of that old DC fave Marion Barry: "DC has a very low crime rate, outside of the murders."

*AG, I meant: Attorney General

It's also an illegal lottery. Which as I read it, is a class B misdemeanor and gives the state the right to seize the prize money. Hope the Wis AJ is on it!

Are you kidding with this? Most of us aren't texting classified military secrets. Sh*t, I use better security planning my kids' birthday party than these fools use for the lives of American soldiers!

A rare missed opportunity by the Onion!

Supreme Court Makes Pact To Lose Virginity By End Of Year WASHINGTON, DC—By an 8-1 vote Monday, the members of the U.S. Supreme Court collectively resolved to lose their virginity by Dec. 31, 2002.

Also not a member of the Supreme Court, but this one dates back to when I was in law school, and I will never ever forget what "res ipsa loquitur" means thanks to its mentally scarring last sentence

You are playing fiddle while the country burns and the Democratic party dies with a whimper. If you can't stand up now, then RESIGN.

@kaine.senate.gov @markwarner.bsky.social NO on cloture, NO on the bill. We did not elect you so that you could "keep your powder dry" or whatever euphemism the DNC is using to rationalize their complacency and unwillingness to stand up for the people being hurt most by King Musk and his agenda.

This indoor garden thing is going super well.

Went online to see if I could figure out why the leaves on one of my plants are yellowing, and in no time I was able to confirm it's either overwatered, underwatered, getting too much or not enough sunlight, or perfectly normal for this time of year.

<<COVID whining>>

From all the billionaires who will be tripping over themselves to hand more of their unimaginable wealth into government coffers

Listening to #REM a lot lately and missing them more than ever; like, enjoy your retirement and all, guys, but how can you leave us alone to cope with all this shit? www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKnd...

Like, imagine building a video game character up so that it's literally one of the strongest and most invulnerable players possible, then handing it over to your elderly grandma to pound through a level, only she's half asleep and also holding the controller upside down. That's what they're seeing.

No Elmo and minimal trolls are a big plus, but bsky can never be a true successor for Twitter to me until I can come here on a Sunday afternoon and join a thousand other people screaming about how $#%#ed off we are about the Steelers game.

Lemme guess, you "did your own research"? The polio vaccine is part of the standard run of vaccines recommended for all kids in the US. www.cdc.gov/vaccines/imz...

A Thanksgiving Day family mystery: the contents of a full jar of seasoned salt are found in a pile on the kitchen floor, the jar itself missing. After a few minutes of searching, the empty jar is located under my daughter's bed.

My daughter:

a woman is crying while talking on a cell phone and the words what was i thinking are visible ALT: a woman is crying while talking on a cell phone and the words what was i thinking are visible

Me on Monday: Hey, why don't I schedule a call with my international colleague for 7 am on Wednesday, since the kids and I are all off and I don't have to worry about getting them ready for school.

Me at 6:45 am today:

A woman yes, but not THAT woman. Okay, well which woman, then? ::crickets::

All of them?
