YouTube video by It's Just Weird Esoteric Media Clips Pauly Shore requests a friend's father to not tax his gig so hardcore cruster

My U10 soccer team was trying to cute with their use of Gen Z slang. Bless their hearts. But this Gen Xer hit them with Pauly Shore (buuuudddiiieeesszzz). Minds blown. (But what is he saying coach?!?!? 😆🤣😝)

I keep forgetting this channel exists 🤷‍♀️

Today I remember Leslie, Charles, Zoe, Dana, Lisa and Anthony. For 24 years now, and always. 💕

Florida plans to become first state to eliminate all childhood vaccine mandates State Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo, who announced the decision, cast current requirements in schools and elsewhere as “immoral” intrusions.

I can't begin to even say how much I oppose this move. It flies in the face of science and evidence. But also history. We know what happens when children aren't vaccinated because it hasn't been so long since vaccines were invented.

Using tennis as a metaphor for policy? YES!

It’s gonna be a great day 🤩

If you call the area ‘the DMV’ or refer to the airport as anything other than ‘National’ then you should excuse yourself from the conversation.

Some of you didn’t live in DC in the 90s and it shows 😆
(And FWIW I loved DC so much more then - before the gentrification and snooty restaurants and fancy apartment buildings)

But it’s more than that. There was something ironic working to influence public policy and effectively not having a vote. There is no good reason for DC not to have statehood. Today’s actions by the President are just another reason why we need DC statehood now. Call your Senators and Representative

I didn’t grow up in DC. I moved into the city and became a DC citizen in 2001. The years I lived in the District were wonderful. It is a great city with great people. But I hated not having Congressional representation. Taxation without representation is fundamentally un-American.

Played a three hour match this morning from 9:30 - 12:30 then jumped in a clinic at 1 for an hour. 93 degrees, 107 heat index. But this is why we play all summer in Florida. You get to a level of conditioning that you just can’t up north.

Gotta say that I really enjoyed the latest #Superman. I especially loved the traces of John Williams’s iconic theme sprinkled throughout. 🎶

The importance of promoting open practices in research, data and scientific computing is especially critical right now. I’m thrilled to be joining this pivotal organization and look forward to getting to know the community.

I totally judge the potential quality of your @letourfr.bsky.social commentary by how well you pronounce Pogačar. 🚴

After a great and rewarding tenure as Executive Director
@cclusa.org, I am preparing to depart for a new opportunity. It was wonderful to lead this community of everyday folks dedicated to solving climate change. There's still much work to do on climate change, but CCE/CCL will surely do it.

Well those were some interesting fireworks tonight in Fernandina Beach. A gangway in the harbor loaded with people collapsed mid-display. People screamed and ran b/c this is America and they thought there was a gunman. Thankfully there was no shooter and only minor injuries from the collapse.

UPDATE: The Senate voted last night to advance the budget reconciliation bill, and voting on final passage will be tomorrow. Urge a NO vote: clusa.org/iradefense

As the GOP ire around the Byrd Bath grows...all I have to say is...play parliamentary tricks, run into the Parliamentarian. There is a way out of this though, it's called regular order.

Two hours of whacking the felt of a ball in the Florida sun will definitely prepare you for what comes next. 🎾 🔥

Today we celebrate the day all people living in the USA, including the formerly enslaved, were officially granted freedom - June 19, 1865. It is important that we not shy away from difficult conversations or attempt to ignore the past. Let’s do the work. #Juneteenth

Philadelphia Freedom 💕

And some say women are too emotional for positions of leadership 🙄

Turns out there was value in not shutting down my Twitter account 👀

“And the best thing you ever done for me is to help me take my life less seriously.
It's only life after all.”

I'm not a regular watcher of cable "news," so when I do watch I'm always jarred by how partisan the programming is. Sort of like hopping between Twitter and Bluesky. We are worlds apart in our views and discourse. But each side now has it's own set of "facts" and reality. Hard to see how to bridge.
